How does alcohol play into campus culture? Liz Young Editor-in-chief young.1693@osu.edu On a recent Saturday in Columbus, bars opened before 6 a.m. to accommodate for the gameday ahead. That’s how early some Ohio State fans started drinking in anticipation of the noon football game against the University of Michigan. Earlier that week, about 14,000 people
had flocked to Mirror Lake for the annual tradition where fans jump into the lake to show — in some way — their disdain for Michigan and love for the Buckeyes. Many of the people who jumped were intoxicated, and four medical transports and four arrests were made at Mirror Lake that night, according to the University Police log. It’s events like those of Beat Michigan Week that demonstrate the way that alcohol and college mix together. According to experts and students alike, students at college
campuses are drinking, but not always without consequence. A second-year OSU student in speech and hearing sciences, who wished to remain anonymous because she isn’t 21, said she started drinking every weekend when she came to college. “I personally liked it because I wanted to experience it but I didn’t think that there was any pressure whatsoever,” she said. She now lives off-campus and said that has changed her drinking habits in that she drinks more
often but more moderately. “I don’t binge drink as much,” she said. “In the dorms because it was more of a novelty and it was the first year of college, I kind of felt like that was what made it so prevalent and like, ‘Who’s gonna get s---faced?’” After all, college drinking isn’t rare. About 80 percent of students drink, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. And half of those who drink aren’t stopping at a beer — they’re binge drinking, drinking to get drunk. That means having about four drinks in two hours for women, or five drinks in that time for men, according to the NIAAA. But even though drinking is common, problems can arise. “I think alcohol is an issue on this college campus, it’s an issue on every college campus and an issue in society for that matter,” OSU’s Office of Student Life spokesman Dave Isaacs said. “It impacts students in a wide variety of ways.” The NIAAA agrees. “The problem with college drinking is not necessarily the drinking itself, but the negative consequences that result from excessive drinking,” the NIAAA’s website said. Every year: • 1,825 students between 18 and 24 years old die from alcohol-related injuries. • About 599,000 students are unintentionally injured while intoxicated. • More than 690,000 are physically assaulted by someone else who had been drinking. • More than 97,000 students are victims of sexual assaults that were alcohol-related. There are academic repercussions — every year, about 25 percent of students report receiving lower grades or other consequences because of drinking. And there are personal

Department exhibit to showcase Sugar Bowl pits familiar foes electrifying art and technology in Urban Meyer, Nick Saban denise bough Lantern reporter blough.24@osu.edu The world of fine art evolves as new media present themselves, giving artists new modes and environments for expression. Given that premise, what better medium to work with than the medium of today: technology, asks Ken Rinaldo, professor and head of the Department of Art’s art and technology program. Starting at 5 p.m. Tuesday, a cluster of electronically produced art is plugging into Hopkins Hall for the gallery for the art and technology program’s biannual student exhibition, “Algorithmic Sequitur,” which runs until Friday, has works chosen from roughly 280
submissions by faculty members, Rinaldo said, with an acceptance rate of about 50 percent. Jessica Ann, a student and TA in the art and technology Master of Fine Arts program, said creating art from technology is fascinating to her because she can explore emerging electronic materials, such as the electroencephalography headset, a wearable device that detects human brainwaves. EEG headsets have been examined for use in gaming and the medical field, Ann said, but she chose to use its components for something new: a brainwave-controlled video camera called the Biofeedback Cinema. “The system operates in lieu of a traditional cinematographer, and it’s the actor who will

james grega, jr. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu Paul “Bear” Bryant and Wayne Woodrow “Woody” Hayes. The first time the Ohio State Buckeyes and Alabama Crimson Tide took the field against each other, the two legendary coaches squared off in a battle for the — wait for it — Sugar Bowl championship in New Orleans. Now, almost 37 years to the date, two more legendary football coaches will roam the sidelines in the 2015 installment of the Sugar Bowl. While they don’t have nicknames like “Woody” or “Bear,” OSU’s Urban Meyer and Alabama’s Nick Saban know each other all too well. They’ve squared off three times as members of the Southeastern Conference when Meyer was at the University of Florida and are set to meet again in a College Football Playoff semi-final game in the first season of the new system. Saban said during a Sunday conference call that returning to the Sugar Bowl for a second year in a row is a “great opportunity,” especially against the Buckeyes. “(It’s) a real honor for our team to be able to come back to the Sugar Bowl, to be a part of the first-ever playoff system playing against an outstanding, very traditional, a great traditioned program like Ohio State, with a great coach like Urban Meyer,” Saban said. Meyer, who is 1-2 against Saban headto-head, said he can remember his lone win against Saban. “The 2008 game was just one of the great games in college football history, in my opinion,” Meyer said Sunday. “Where evenly matched teams were going back and forth, back and forth. And obviously we got, scored right at the end to take a two-score lead.” Meyer’s Florida Gators defeated Saban’s Crimson Tide, 31-20, in that game to earn a spot in the 2009 BCS National Championship, which they won over the Oklahoma Sooners. Combined, the two coaches have recorded six national titles, a far cry from the combined

OSU won, 59-0. 11 that Hayes and Bryant combined for in their coaching careers. Adding to the intrigue is the fact that both Saban and Meyer were not only OSU assistants in the 1980s, but also both played their college football in Ohio with Saban at Kent State and Meyer at Cincinnati. Meyer, who was a graduate assistant at OSU from 1986-87, coached his first game against the Crimson Tide, a 16-10 loss. Just six years prior, Saban was on the same Buckeye staff as a defensive backs coach under then-head coach and Meyer mentor Earle Bruce. During a fundraiser in Mason, Ohio, back in April, Saban spoke about one particular coach who made an impact on him when he was an up-and-coming football coach. In Saban’s second year at OSU, the unranked Buckeyes entered a game against

campus Medical Center names new CEO with $1.1M salary LOGAN HICKMAN Campus editor hickman.201@osu.edu The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center is set to get more than a new cancer hospital — it’s also getting a new CEO. Meanwhile, it’s still unclear when a senior administrator’s role is set to be filled after he moved into a new position within the medical center. Dr. Sheldon Retchin of Virginia Commonwealth University is slated to serve as executive vice president of health sciences and CEO of the Wexner Medical Center, OSU announced in a Monday email from President Michael Drake. He will start March 2, pending approval from the OSU Board of Trustees, the letter said. Dr. Steven Gabbe has held the position since 2008, but announced in February that he will step down. Gabbe is set to return to a faculty position, Drake’s letter said. Retchin’s base salary is set to be $1.1 million, a separate Monday release from OSU said. Gabbe made a base salary of $861,492 last year in the same role. Gabbe came to OSU in 1987 as a professor and chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology, but left in 1996 to become chair of OB-GYN at the University of Washington Medical Center and later dean at Vanderbilt University’s School of Medicine, according to the Medical Center website. Retchin has been the senior vice president for health sciences at VCU and CEO of the VCU Health System since 2003. He is also a professor in the departments of internal medicine, gerontology and health administration. Retchin’s main duties at OSU will consist of managing an “ambitious agenda to sustain and further advance the Wexner Medical Center’s reputation for excellence,” the release said. Meanwhile, Geoff Chatas, OSU chief financial officer and senior vice president of business and finance, moved into the role of senior vice president for optimization

Dr. Sheldon Retchin and integration and Medical Center chief transformation officer, March 1. He will remain CFO until a successor is chosen — something OSU spokesman Gary Lewis said hadn’t happened as of Monday. Lewis wasn’t immediately able to provide any additional details about the search process or when a successor is expected to be chosen. Chatas’ position at the medical center is a new one at the university, former Interim President Joseph Alutto said in a Feb. 18 email. In that role, Chatas looks to increase operating efficiency as he pursues new sources of revenue. Chatas made a base salary of $683,153 in 2013. The Lantern reported in February that there was not to be a change in Chatas’ salary in his new position. “Geoff will act as an internal catalyst for growth at the Medical Center,” Alutto said. “In his new capacity, Geoff will continue to

We looked at well over 150 candidates at the beginning, narrowed that down to about a dozen of the preeminent leaders in this field in the country, narrowed that further down to six and then worked that down to the very best people,” Drake said. Retchin said OSU’s hospitality has been overwhelming and he can’t wait to get started. “For my family, the opportunity to join the Ohio State University was just an
enormous privilege and honor. We are very excited,” Retchin said at the press conference. Leslie Wexner, chairman of the Wexner Medical Center Board, said in the release that Retchin is the right person for the job during this expansive time for the hospital. “With a broad understanding of national health policy and future challenges to academic health sciences, he is exactly the right leader to lead a transformational agenda to drive meaningful financial and operational efficiencies while steering us through a time of great change both on campus and within the national health care environment,” Wexner said in the release. The medical center is currently in the midst of a $1.1 billion renovation plan. Amanda Etchison contributed to this story.

But he said it can be a tough situation because “it has a lineage, there are a number of people here that are high up in the administration that were part of that fraternity when they came through here.” And at West Virginia University this fall, Greek Life was suspended after an 18-year-old freshman student died 36 hours after falling unconscious during an underage drinking party at a fraternity house. WVU President E. Gordon Gee — a former OSU president — posted a letter on the university’s website after the incident about “the issues at hand.” “Two of those issues needing to be addressed are alcohol and the irresponsible and reckless behaviors that often follow. It is a culture we must change at West Virginia University. Indeed, it is a culture that needs to be changed at nearly every institution of higher education across this country,” Gee wrote. OSU works to distribute messages about how to “party smart” (the name of one of its initiatives) and what the truth is about how much students are really drinking. According to a Student Wellness Center Comprehensive Prevention Plan, 68 percent of OSU students think the average student on campus drinks three times or more per week, when in reality, about 28 percent of OSU students drink that often. The plan also stated that 80 percent of OSU students have six drinks or less when they party. “Because individuals’ behavior is, in part, formed by what they perceive to be
Correction Submissions
normative behavior in their community, misperceptions regarding drinking norms are theorized to be one factor that leads to high-risk drinking on college campuses,” the plan stated. OSU follows federal, state and local laws when it comes to alcohol — students under 21 aren’t permitted to buy, possess or drink alcohol, and it’s not permitted in the residence halls except, in most dorms, for students 21 and older. Even then, those students can only drink the beverages in their room or the rooms of others who are of age. From 2005-06 to 2010-11 — the most recent year for which numbers were posted — OSU Student Conduct cases involving alcohol charges zigzagged. In 2005-06, there were 93, but that figure fell as low as 23 in 2008-09 before rising to 293 in 2010-11. In 2010-11, 36 cases involved alcohol and/or drug assessment sanctions, and 74 required Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students or Cannabis Screening and Intervention for College Students sanctions. Isaacs said if Student Conduct gets involved with a case, there is an investigation with various steps where it will “talk to various people, find out what happened, and then – if warranted – issue sanctions to that student.” Those sanctions range from reflection papers to referrals for health and wellness assessments. And those sanctions can increase if there are multiple over time. “It can run the gamut of various possibilities,” Isaacs said. “With the idea of helping students, helping their education and helping them succeed in the long run.” But students still drink, on and off campus. The student studying speech and hearing science at OSU said she’s rarely been affected by alcohol biologically the next day and hadn’t ever thrown up from drinking, but some of her friends have. The student talked about how she’s picked up two friends from the hospital in the past. Still, she’s not concerned in the short-term for them. “The friends that drink the most out of my friend group, I know that there’s like a huge population of people that drink that same amount,” she said. “My friends that drink more than me, I still don’t see that as any kind of concerning behavior in the college world.” And while she said it’s important that people find out their own limits, she noted that it’s hard for parents or educators to make a difference in the culture. “I think the biggest problem is socially in the peer group, so the most OSU can say to an illegal activity is ‘don’t do it’ or ‘here’s how to do it safely,’ but they can’t speak to the social aspect of it,” she said. “If I had come into college last year at the same time knowing in theory, ‘Yes, if you keep drinking this much, this and this and this happens,’ you still do it for yourself.” The student said in her opinion, it’s probably best for friends to intervene at the time when things aren’t going well while drinking. “The confidence to step forward and say, ‘No, you need to stop now,’ or, ‘We need to leave here,’” she said. “I don’t really know what can be done institutionally though.” Michele Theodore and Chelsea Spears contributed to this article.

opinion OSU community deserves answers from editorial board interview Editorial: The Ohio State president won’t be coming in for an editorial board meeting with The Lantern this semester, for the first time in at least six years. Because of scheduling troubles and President Michael Drake’s transition, we were unable to set a date with OSU that suited both parties for the semesterly interview. OSU offered a half-hour slot from 3-3:30 p.m. on Dec. 9, but The Lantern has historically had an hour with presidents in the past and doesn’t have a print issue after the one that’s on stands Tuesday until Jan. 12. We asked on Nov. 12 for another date. When following up last week, The Lantern was told the initally offered date and time
on Dec. 9 — Tuesday — had already been taken. On Nov. 25, The Lantern received a copy of Drake’s calendar from Sept. 29 through Jan. 4 in response to a records request. That calendar showed Drake is set to be at a calendar review from 2-3 p.m. Monday and in a private appointment from 4:30-5:30 p.m., with a holiday reception to follow. We had been working on setting up a time for an editorial board meeting since Sept. 8. We accepted a meet-and-greet meeting with Drake and three representatives from The Lantern Media Group on Oct. 27, which was initially offered in addition to and in advance of an editorial board interview later in the semester. OSU and The Lantern are working on scheduling an interview with Drake for
sometime in December with the typical editorial board interview taking place sometime in January. It’s understandable that OSU’s administration is busy — since former OSU Marching Band director Jonathan Waters was dismissed July 24, less than a month after Drake started, there’s been a flurry of media attention about a variety of topics, including Waters’ decision to sue OSU. The new Wexner Medical Center James Cancer Hospital opens this month, and a new CEO was named Monday to lead the Medical Center. On a more serious note, a missing OSU student and walk-on football player was found dead last week. And this past weekend, OSU’s football team won the Big Ten Championship Game and earned a berth in the first-ever College Football Playoffs.
We at The Lantern aren’t trying to distract Drake or any other administrators from these topics. We know these issues bring up a lot of questions about how to move forward and what can be done better in the future. But we want to ask those questions. We’re trying to talk to these people who lead OSU, and Drake specifically, about the issues at hand because we know our readers care. We want to our readers to know what’s going on behind the scenes. What is OSU’s president focusing on? And what’s next on his agenda? The thing is, we can’t ask those questions we have, those questions that the OSU community deserves answers to, without an editorial board interview.

Nayeon Yang has received plenty of recognition and awards for her art, but her most valued work couldn’t make $1 at an auction. That’s because she works in performance art, with a focus on making emotional connections with her participatory audiences. Earlier this year, the Buckeye Civic Engagement Connection gave her the Maya Angelou Award, a creative arts prize recognizing individuals that “combine words, art and actions to stir souls, energize bodies, liberate minds and heal hearts.” Yang, a graduate student of fine arts in the sculpture department, said she has come a long way artistically since her upbringing in South Korea. “I was really depressed when I was in Korea,” Yang said. “I dropped out of high school. I was looking for something I liked to do. I just couldn’t find it.” She was not interested in what she calls “Korean institutions in the ‘90s.” “The education system precisely focused on how to get a better grade to go to a good college, which I wasn’t really interested in,” Yang said. “I just wanted to talk about stars, do some drawing, read poetry and watch movies. Korean high school students usually spend their time from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. at a school, or private institution, studying.” Yang eventually took a qualification exam the same year to obtain certification that recognized her as a high school graduate. She came to the Los Angeles at age 24 to try to break into the art world. After studying at Pasadena City College, she moved to Chicago following a visiting to her sister there. “I would visit her and think ‘this is a great space to be in,’” Yang said. Her sister was studying design and frequented museums and art galleries. “When I visited a contemporary art museum for the first time, I had no idea there were so many art genres,” Yang said. “I started to learn the meaning behind art.” At 27, Yang decided to go back to school and later graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Yang originally began expressing herself artistically by painting, before exploring other avenues. “I would say that I am a interdisciplinary artist,” Yang said. “That means I do performances, installations, videos and paintings.” Yang said her inspiration is her personal experience and transforming that experience into a social art experience. “All of my work comes from my desire to communicate with others,”

OPINION
White Castle set to get into the greens
Banks’ finger-pointing only counter-productive
BREE CRYE Lantern reporter crye.4@osu.edu
This is part of a weekly series called “Pop Opinions” where The Lantern offers its take on the week’s pop culture news.
Slider enthusiasts can rejoice: White Castle plans to release a new vegetarian slider option to their menu. The veggie patty is scheduled to become available at all locations Jan. 1. Currently, the new slider is being tested at select locations in New Jersey and New York, said Kim KellyBartley, White Castle’s vice president of marketing and menu development. “We want to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy White Castle,” Kelly-Bartley said. “That means expanding our slider options.” Kelly-Bartley said the majority of feedback White Castle has received from customers has been from vegans. “Vegans wanted vegan sauce and vegan buns,” KellyBartley said. “We’re trying to see if we can accommodate the vegan requests. We’re not sure that we can.” The new veggie patty itself is vegan, however, KellyBartley said. White Castle will source the new patties from Dr. Praegers, a frozen food company based in New Jersey. Each vegetarian slider is 150 calories without any sauces, with five grams of fat, according to the nutritional summary provided by Jason Suitt, manager of quality assurance and research and development. Kelly-Bartley was unable to give a definitive price Dec. 2 for the new veggie patty slider at the time of the interview. Some students at Ohio State had mixed feelings about the new slider. Natalie Roemer, a third-year in environment, economy, development and sustainability and a vegetarian, said she was unlikely to eat at White Castle, even with their new vegetarian option. “I try not to eat too many processed foods,” Roemer said. “Even vegetarian options from fast food restaurants aren’t too healthy.” Still, she said that she would possibly consider trying their new veggie patty slider. “It wouldn’t be at the top of my list of new vegetarian foods to try, though,” she added. Phillipe Kenny, also a third-year in environment, economy, development and sustainability, said he’s eaten at White Castle before, but was not a fan. “The food is way too greasy,” Kenny said. “And the quality of food is not very good — both taste and health-wise.” Still, Kenny said he would be willing to give White Castle another chance in light of their new vegetarian slider. “I like veggie burgers,” Kenny said. “I’m always interested in trying new ones.” White Castle, a Columbus-based chain, first opened in 1921. The restaurant is best known for its “original sliders,” hamburgers which feature a two-by-two inch beef patty, pickles and onions. Each slider has 140 calories and six grams of fat.
Azealia Banks, you’re part of the problem. Who is Azealia Banks, you ask? Nobody, as far as I’m concerned. But to her fans, she’s a highly talented rapper with presumably impressive lyrics and an abrasive charm that I’ve never understood. Oh, and she’s got a really big mouth. Banks has been particularly outspoken with her support toward the recent Ferguson issues, as well as similar issues related to racial equality in this country — and that’s great. But then she ruined it. She ruined it by calling out fellow female rapper Iggy Azalea, excuse me, “Igloo Australia,” as Banks referred to her via Twitter. Banks slammed Iggy for adopting the glamorous side of black culture — rap music and “black d---” — while ignoring the problematic dark sides of prejudice and racism. Let’s get a few things straight. Tweeting about your feelings does not spark change. Further, garnering hate toward a fellow artist does not spark change. And last but not least, verbally attacking your peers does not spark change. This is a touchy subject, so I’ll attempt to tread lightly. I’ll start by saying that supporting

equality of every kind has become the “cool” thing to do — and I find that to be absolutely wonderful. But voicing opinions about discrimination via social media has also become the “cool” thing to do — and that’s quickly turned into a very slippery slope. It’s become a battleground, really. “Who can most eloquently call out nameless offenders and obtain the most likes?” Say one wrong word, make one inaccurate claim, miss one minor detail, and your attempt at voicing support becomes fodder for the flames. We have become so racially sensitive that our noble attempts at equality have turned into a defensive game of name-calling and retaliation. People like Azealia Banks are not doing anyone a favor. To see it for yourself, simply scroll through her Twitter feed. The word “faggot” appears more than a few times. She voices support for black Americans by picking and tearing at white Americans. She slut-shames Iggy Azalea, implying that she is only involved in black culture so that she can have sex with black men. For Azealia Banks to make such accusations of Iggy Azalea is racist. To restrict her from “black culture” is unfair. Further, Banks claims to support equality but then makes claims that counter feminism, she makes claims that generalize and insult gay men, and she makes claims that are altogether quite rude. Iggy’s multi-tweet response

Exhibit from 1A control the final composition with their brainwaves,” Ann said, adding that the system still needs further development before it’s truly complete. Ann’s vision-turned-working-prototype uses a NeuroSky EEG headset to measure a subject’s brainwaves, which are sent via Bluetooth technology to her platform, ultimately controlling the focus and position of the camera, she said. For example, if the gadget detects the wearer is highly concentrated, the camera shot will be more focused. “In some ways, you might say this is a normal way for artists to work today, because these are the tools of this moment,” assistant professor of art and technology Shane Mecklenburger said about the exhibit. “So I think it’s a very natural thing for artists to want to work with technology.” Ann’s project was brought to existence after she was selected to go to Madrid for an engineering workshop, ”Interactivos.” There, she realized the Biofeedback Cinema in collaboration with a professional programmer, choreographer and videographer. “If you’re trying to make an artwork and you spend all year trying to figure out something an engineer could’ve done in a week, it seems like a waste of time and resources,” she said of the collaboration. “Collaborating is a really amazing experience to have that give and take with someone else who’s coming from a completely different perspective than you, and then come together and solve a problem.” Ann has since rebuilt the device, which will be in the exhibit. Theatre graduate students Josh Truett and Karie Miller are set to perform live with Ann’s system during the show’s opening at 5, 5:30, 6 and 6:30 p.m. Other artworks in “Algorithmic Sequitur” use digital imaging, 3-D holography, new media robotics, moving images, art games, animation, 3-D modeling and rapid prototyping work, among others, Mecklenburger said. Students in art and technology have an advanced array of resources at their fingertips, including a laser cutter and a rapid prototyping machine, to help bridge the gap that occurs when a student has an idea, but not the engineering skills necessary to carry it out, Mecklenburger said. The lower cost and accessibility of these tools have led more and more artists to create in this field. “There’s actually a wonderful relationship between the way artists and engineers think,” Rinaldo said. “Generally engineers have much higher math skills, but the truth is that with a lot of the software we use, we don’t necessarily have to have the high math skills to make engineered works of art. Mathematical objects and code-based interactions speak specifically to a kind of contemporary moment on this planet, where everything we know of is mediated by mathematical spaces or the algorithm. The algorithm is the new intelligence that mediates how we touch the world.”

A piece titled ‘Stay With Me’ by OSU graduate student Nayeon Yang
Yang from 5A Yang said. “I am trying to figure out who’s next to me, who’s around me. I get to learn about people while I do my projects.” Yang has completed some notable performance art exhibits publicly. “I kind of try to create that kind of environment where we have to communicate,” Yang said. “That’s why I’m really interested in participatory art.” In 2009, Yang performed “Hear.t.ea.” First, spectators were invited to write a sincere letter to someone they love on her nude body, with ink. Then, Yang washed her body in a tub filled with warm water, where the letters were dissolved. She filled cups with the water, and passed them out to the crowd.
Banks from 5A to all of this? Perfectly eloquent, perfectly thoughtful, and perfectly sassy. Here are just a few highlights: “Theres more to sparking a change than trolling on social media. World issues shouldnt be used as a poor excuse to promote fan battles.” “The world is too hung up on what is or isnt said on twitter. theres an actual world out there and multiple ways you can promote change.” “CLEARLY your CONCERN is finding any reason to promote shade, trolling, fan fights and memes. I know you guys by now, you don’t fool me.” Rock on, Iggy! As a scrawny white man hiding behind the safety and anonymity of a keyboard, maybe I’m biased. Are there sides to this argument that I don’t see? Absolutely. I won’t mock the plight of black Americans by pretending to understand it. There are problems that I don’t see. There is hate that I’ve never experienced. But Azealia Banks is attempting to mark all white people as the sole villains in this battle, which isn’t fair. She’s
“Emotion that was kind of unspeakable became a physical element that could be transmitted into the body,” Yang said. Yang says she likes to use her art as a tool to make others aware of themselves. “When you’re looking at something like washing my body in a hot tub, that’s just something to look at,” Yang said. “But when I ask you to drink that water, you have to think about it. ‘Oh wait, that’s the water she just washed her body in,’ that’s kind of disgusting, but you’re aware of your body and what you want and what you don’t want.” Though her body is often on display, Yang said she is just a conduit, not the subject.
lashing out. We have a problem in this country, and that should be clear to all. But rather than point fingers (which has never solved anything), we must unite. Equality means working together, and fighting fire with fire has never done anything but cause more fire. Phew, now that that’s out of the way, let’s move on to lighter news! Iggy Azalea recently took time from her defense against the Azealia Banks attacks to announce that she will be bringing along Nick Jonas as the opening act for her The New Classic tour. Yes, that’s right. I said Nick Jonas. I’m not complaining — I think the two will make for an excellent show. But do their musical styles complement one another? No, not really. It’s also strange that Nick Jonas is serving as an opening act. Given his recently revived popularity, you’d think he’d be more interested in headlining. Nevertheless, Iggy Azalea is huge right now, so serving as her opener will do nothing but good things for Twitter’s favorite teen-heartthrob-turned-crotch-grabber.

Longer trip leads Bell down same path TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu Ridgeland High School in Rossville, Ga., is just over a threehour drive from the University of Alabama. The drive from Ridgeland to Ohio State is about four hours longer. In 2013, the football program up north in Columbus was on the rise — coach Urban Meyer had just led his Buckeyes to an undefeated season in his first year on the job. But the program down south in Tuscaloosa, Ala., was already on top of the world. Coach Nick Saban had just led the Crimson Tide to its second-straight national title, and third in four years. The Southeastern Conference was the pinnacle of college football, and nearly every top recruit seemed destined to play for Saban. The same can be said for Vonn Bell, who was a five-star rated safety at Ridgeland. According to Scout. com, Bell’s final list came down to OSU, Alabama and Tennessee, and according to a closeto-accepted national opinion, ‘Bama was the place for him. Eventually, MARK BATKE / Photo editor Bell’s time to make Sophomore safeties Cam Burrows (16) and a decision came, Vonn Bell (11)
and he announced his college choice live on ESPN on Feb. 6, 2013. The moderator introduced him as a Tennessee fan and mentioned his Southern roots, but the school he announced wasn’t Alabama and its mascot isn’t the Volunteers. “For next year, I will be attending the Ohio State University,” Bell said after a speech thanking those who had helped him get to that position. He then donned a scarlet OSU hat, and explained his decision. “You know, Urban Meyer is on a mission right now for a national championship,” Bell said. “You see this year he went 12-0 with his guys he didn’t even recruit this year.” Bell chose the Buckeyes and Columbus, probably not for the cold weather, but because of the impression Meyer had made. “I just felt more comfortable with coach Meyer because I had spent more time with him and his staff,” Bell said, according to a Feb. 11, 2013, The Lantern article. Not even two full years later, the Rossville, Ga., native is set to start for OSU against the coach and team he could have picked. Meyer said Bell has become one of the keys to the Buckeyes’ success — including their run to the first-ever College Football Playoff — since he chose to spurn the SEC. “He’s a very talented guy, highly recruited guy … that could have really went anywhere and to go down to the south and — I know with Tennessee and Alabama, and he grew up a Vols fan,” Meyer said Sunday during a teleconference. “So he’s a big part of who we are.” But before finishing his sophomore season tied for first on the team with five interceptions, and second on the team with 78 total tackles, Bell’s career might not have started out the way a five-star recruit would hope. Bell played in all 14 games as a freshman, but contributed mostly on special teams. He totaled just 19 tackles MARK BATKE / Photo editor

The Ohio State women’s basketball team will look to improve on its vapid defense as it gets ready to face Arkansas State on Thursday. The Buckeyes are 5-4 on the season following a double-digit win at home against Winthrop (S.C.) on Sunday afternoon. Freshman guard Kelsey Mitchell said the team isn’t satisfied with its current record and will try to bring as much intensity as it can for the game against the Red Wolves. “We need as much energy as possible,” Mitchell said. “We need all the energy we can to pick up this process so some of our chemistry can come together. We’re 5-4, who wants to be 5-4 right now?” OSU has allowed its opponents to score 77.4 points per game this season, which ranks 328th among Division I programs. OSU coach Kevin McGuff said that while the Buckeyes have made strides in improving on defense, they still have room to grow before they face Arkansas State. “I think just try to be more consistent,” McGuff said. “We played more man, I’d like to see us be able to do that but we still need some work.” Mitchell scored 17 of OSU’s 26 points in the first half in the game against Winthrop. While Mitchell leads the team in scoring and ranks third in the nation with 26.2 points per game, McGuff was insistent that OSU can’t rely on Mitchell to be the main source of offense. “It can’t and it shouldn’t and it doesn’t need to be,” McGuff said. Junior guard Ameryst Alston said the team will look to spread the ball across the floor in an effort to get everyone involved and tire out the opposition.

Coaching was an afterthought for Geoff Carlston CHRIS SLACK Lantern reporter slack.77@osu.edu Long before the Ohio State women’s volleyball team took the court against Kentucky in the NCAA tournament, coach Geoff Carlston stood at a crossroads. He played college club volleyball at Minnesota, where he received a bachelor’s degree in speech communication. But it wasn’t until an injury to a finger while playing for the Golden Gophers that Carlston got interested in coaching. “I tore ligaments in my finger and so while I
Tuesday December 9, 2014
was out, I got asked to coach,” Carlston said. “I was 19 and I was coaching an 18 and under team. And I just had a great time with it.” But even at that point, Carlston still didn’t know he wanted to be a coach. After going on a cross-country road trip for a year, Carlston returned to Minnesota to coach at Hopkins High School. After a two-year run at Hopkins, he served another two years in the Peace Corps. He had considered playing volleyball professionally, but couldn’t pass up the chance at one of his dreams. “I had this opportunity and I had always wanted to go into the Peace Corps,” Carlston said.
And while he was volunteering, volleyball still found him. “I got asked to coach the (men’s and women’s) national teams in Belize and that was awesome,” he said. “I got to travel all over the Middle East, working with both men’s and women’s teams.” Carlston said that he has always loved traveling and that “the idea of doing good and going and serving in another country, I really wanted to go somewhere where I could throw myself at the country.” While overseas, he said he also helped members in youth gangs and helped teach sign language.
With all the work that he had done at the time, Carlston had thought about teaching and getting his doctorate degree. But an opportunity to return to his alma mater was something he couldn’t turn down. “I got a hold of Mike Hebert, who had just gotten offered the job at Minnesota and he was a Peace Corps guy back in the ‘60s,” he said. “And I said ‘hey I’m coming back and I’d love to volunteer or doing something with your program.’” Carlston became a student assistant coach while he completed his master’s degree in social

sports Sugar Bowl from 1A Michigan in Ann Arbor, Mich., as significant underdogs with the Wolverines ranked No. 7 in the nation. Saban said Hayes, less than three years removed from his final game at OSU, came back for the first time to address the team. “He came to Senior Tackle and he talked to the team and he says, ‘You can have no great victories in life unless you can overcome adversity. The War in the Pacific was the greatest military victory of all time because of Pearl Harbor, and the adversity we had to overcome because of that,’” Saban told Cleveland.com. “We won the game, 14-9, you can look it up, and they didn’t score a touchdown.” Now, all these years later, the Buckeyes are once again facing adversity. During a 42-28 victory over Michigan, redshirt-freshman quarterback and then-Heisman hopeful J.T. Barrett fractured his ankle, forcing the Buckeyes to go to their third-string quarterback, redshirt-sophomore Cardale Jones. A day later, OSU learned that missing teammate Kosta Karageorge had been found dead off-campus from what police said was a potentially self-inflicted gunshot wound. Despite all of that, OSU was able to dismantle the Wisconsin Badgers in the 2014 Big Ten Championship Game, 59-0, catapulting the Buckeyes into the first-ever College Football Playoff. Through the crazy ride that has been the 2014 season, senior cornerback Doran Grant said Sunday that the strides the Buckeyes have made are because of this year’s challenges. “Handling the adversity, just coming together as a group. I feel the same way because I
think we improved a lot because of how close we became over every week,” Grant said. “Overcome the obstacles, adversity, and we just remained together. And I think that’s a big part of our improvement.” Grant will now be faced with a challenge of his own, as he will likely be matched up with Heisman finalist and junior Alabama wide receiver Amari Cooper. Cooper ranks second in the nation in receiving yards with 1,656 to go along with 14 touchdowns. His 115 receptions equal exactly half of Alabama starting senior quarterback Blake Sims’ completions. Grant said while he isn’t sure what the game plan is for the Crimson Tide just yet, he knows what to expect from Cooper. “I know he’s a great receiver. A very polished receiver. He has big play ability. Looking forward to the matchup, honestly,” Grant said. “Not sure how we’re gonna handle everything, but looking forward to going against a great team period.” While Grant isn’t looking at film on Cooper just yet, Meyer did say he might look at some film from some of his previous matchups against Saban. “We’ll probably look at the last two. Or maybe we will. Because our offense has adapted and changed somewhat, but I think I always like to go back and see because a lot of times there’s some fundamentals or coverage concepts or front concepts that we’ll look at,” Meyer said. “That will be mostly on that side of the ball that I’ll check out a little bit what they did in the past. But that’s about it.” While Meyer has beaten Saban before, the Buckeyes currently hold a 0-3 record against the Crimson Tide all time, something OSU will look to improve upon as it is set to take on Alabama on New Year’s Day in the Allstate Sugar Bowl for a chance to play for a national championship at 8:30 p.m.
Carlston from 7A work at Minnesota. At the same time, he was the head coach of the Minnesota One Junior Olympics club. After two years of being a student assistant coach, he got his first collegiate head coaching job at Concordia-St. Paul, where he stayed for three seasons. In that time, he learned how to be a successful coach with limited funds. “When I took that job, they had never won a Division II match,” he said. “And I was making $17,500 a year. I was the intramural director and I had $4,000 to pay my assistants. “But I loved it because we built that from scratch, like I had to do everything. I was the trainer, I was the marketer, I was everything, except I didn’t drive the bus.” From there, he went on to Ohio University to coach the Bobcats from 2003-07, and would finish first in the Mid-American Conference in every season, with NCAA tournament appearances in all five of his years in charge. He also took the Bobcats to the sweet 16 in 2005. After the 2007 season, he became the Buckeyes’ coach. In his tenure, the Buckeyes have made the postseason in five of seven seasons. “I would never say I had a master plan, I just followed my bliss,” he said.

Bell from 7A and one interception — which didn’t come until his first start as a Buckeye: OSU’s Orange Bowl loss to Clemson to end the season. Looking back, Meyer said getting Bell on the field earlier and more often could have been beneficial for the Buckeyes. “He’s having a pretty good year, he’s our starting safety,” Meyer said. “Came in last year, was very instrumental on special teams. I probably should have pushed harder as far as getting him in the game a little more as a freshman.” But even if Meyer would’ve given the second-year more playing time last season looking back, Bell didn’t even start the first game of 2014. Instead, sophomore safety Cam Burrows started the Buckeyes’ opener against Navy back in August, but Burrows didn’t last long. Bell ended up coming into the game and playing starter’s minutes, and hasn’t looked back. Bell and the Buckeyes peaked over the weekend, when OSU shellacked Wisconsin on its way to a 59-0 win in the Big Ten Championship Game, effectively sealing its New Year’s date with Saban and the Crimson Tide. Bell tied for the team lead in the game with seven total tackles — including four solo tackles — and had a key firsthalf interception as the Buckeyes extended their lead to 17-0 on the ensuing drive. Considering Bell’s success at OSU, Saban said during a Sunday teleconference that he would expect Bell to have a
One thing that has allowed Carlston to be such a successful coach is his relationship with players. “I want to connect with my players,” he said. Carlston has multiple meetings with each of his players every season. He said that academics and family issues are things that he cares about, and the things that come up in those meetings. “He does a really good job with allowing us to experience the little things in life,” senior setter Taylor Sherwin said. “Yeah, volleyball is the main focus, but he wants us to experience things. Like when we travel, going to do stuff, instead of being in the hotel all day.” Sophomore middle blocker Taylor Sandbothe said she and Carlston are very similar. “We’re both very super competitive and I think I connect with Geoff on a personal level, not only just having him as my coach, but he’s a friend,” Sandbothe said. “He cares about us outside of volleyball.” Junior outside hitter Katie Mitchell, who is from The Woodlands, Texas, said Carlston is a big reason why she chose to attend OSU. “I wouldn’t be up here, there’s quite a bit of a life change,” Mitchell said. “But it’s opened up doors of opportunity. Working in the athletic department with internships and things like that.” With his 2014 Buckeyes back in the sweet 16 after upsetting Kentucky on Saturday, Carlston’s life could have been completely different. “But coaching kept finding me,” he said.
similar impact if he had signed with the Crimson Tide. “Well, we thought Vonn Bell was an outstanding player and certainly wanted him in our program,” Saban said. “I think if he was in our program right now, he would be a very productive player for us.” Had Bell in fact chosen Saban and the Crimson Tide over Meyer and the Buckeyes, it would’ve been hard to blame him. But after making his announcement, Bell expressed his intentions of winning a national championship at OSU, and even mentioned that path could pit the Buckeyes against Alabama. “We all on a mission, we all want to do something special ‘cause we gotta bring everything up,” Bell said on ESPN moments after his announcement. “We gonna try to beat ‘Bama and everything, so we gonna meet them at the National Championship. You know, we gonna get that crystal ball, holding it up high.” Down to the basic details, Bell’s words came true. He and the Buckeyes are set to face the Crimson Tide with title hopes on the line, but at the time, the College Football Playoff didn’t exist. In 2014, OSU will have to go through Alabama to win a national title — but not in the title game itself. And despite the trophy no longer being a crystal ball, Bell and the Buckeyes’ goal remains the same. OSU and Alabama are set to meet at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans at 8:30 p.m. on Jan. 1.
Hoops from 7A “It just comes with moving the ball and just not being stagnant on offense,” Alston said. “Trying to kind of get them tired playing the whole possession of the game.” Mitchell said the team will need to remain optimistic and remember lessons learned from practice in order to be successful against the Red Wolves. “Stay positive,” Mitchell said. “Stay grateful for things that we have and just keep working hard in practice every day doing the things we’re supposed to do. Doing things the right way and (the way) coaches want us to do.” The Buckeyes are scheduled to play Arkansas State on Thursday at 7 p.m. at the Schottenstein Center.
