“At Starbucks we deeply respect the views of our customers, and recognize that there is significant and genuine passion surrounding the issue of open carry weapons laws. We comply with local laws and statues in the communities we serve. Our longstanding approach to this issue remains unchanged and we abide by the laws that permit open carry in 43 U.S. states where these laws don’t exist, openly carrying weapons in our stores is prohibited,” a Starbucks company spokesperson said in an email.

Will e-books replace college textbooks? Kristen Mitchell And Kaitor Kposowa Lantern reporters mitchell.935@osu.edu and kposowa.3@osu.edu Traditional textbooks could quickly become a thing of the past. Apple Inc., recently announced the company will be joining Amazon and Barnes & Noble as a major player in the electronic textbook business. The technology powerhouse has made deals with textbook companies to sell electronic copies of books for grades K-12 for $14.99 or less. Some students spend hundreds of dollars each quarter on textbooks alone, and e-books are advertised as a cheaper alternative to hard copy versions. “It’s the kind of thing OSU has the resources to take advantage of and develop really innovative, engaging material with,” said Scott Lissner, Americans with Disabilities Act coordinator at Ohio State. Ken Petri, the director of the Web Accessibility Center at OSU, said he thinks digital textbooks will eventually be the norm at OSU. “I think it’s totally, 100 percent, completely inevitable,” he said. Vendors boast of savings of more than 50 to 60 percent on e-books, and some Ohio State students are cashing in on the deals. “The book for my biology class cost like $200,

nationwide boycott against Starbucks for its neutral position on concealed carry. The National Gun Victim’s Action Council called for a nationwide boycott of Starbucks on Valentine’s Day until the corporation prohibits guns in the stores. Michael Newbern, a second-year in industrial engineering and president of Buckeyes for Concealed Carry on Campus, said Starbucks has a neutral position on concealed carry laws. Starbucks company spokesperson wrote in an email the company follows the state law but did not say whether it is for or against concealed carry.

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently announced the multi-billion dollar company would be going public this spring, and most experts agree it will continue its reign of investors and user support. Hussein Fazal, cofounder and CEO of AdParlor, the leading company managing Facebook’s advertisements, said in an email this was the next step for Facebook. “I think it is the logical progression for the company,” Fazal said. “I have confidence that the leadership at Facebook will continue to make the right product decisions and innovate despite becoming public.” Rupert Murdoch’s News Corporation once bought Intermix Media Inc., which held Myspace, which was previously the most popular social networking site, for $580 million. News Corp., later sold Myspace for $35 million to Specific Media, less than 16 times its original price. Fazal said there is no way this type of digression would happen to Facebook.

“Not a chance, Facebook is a very different business in a very different time,” Fazal said. “Facebook has built an extremely large and accurate social graph — in addition to being disciplined about their product and the way they treat users.” Rolfe Winkler, writer for the Wall Street Journal, described some of the pros and cons of large companies when they decide to go public. “The pro, Zuckerberg will have publicly trading stock which he can use to help finance acquisitions,” Winkler said. “The con, increased scrutiny from the public and pressure to deliver solid results each quarter.” Winkler said Facebook going public is a good thing, but nothing much will change as Zuckerberg’s “super voting shares” will still have control of the company. “It wasn’t a matter of wanting to go public so much as regulations require them too,” Winkler said. “The SEC’s 500 investor rule requires companies with that many shareholders to file financials publicly and might as well raise capital at the same time.”

First Year Experience predictions, the average student will spend $1,317 on textbooks every year, which some students find unacceptable. “I think it’s a little ridiculous to spend that much on textbooks, especially because in some classes you won’t even talk about them or use them,” said Nick Rettig, a second-year in agribusiness and applied economics. Rettig said he sees the financial advantage of using electronic textbooks. “As a college student, you don’t have a lot of money floating around. Anything that is cheaper should be considered,” Rettig said. Wayne Carlson, vice provost for undergraduate studies and dean for undergraduate education at OSU, said he is thinks e-readers are the future. “I see this as a real future,” he said. “I see this as a real way for the university to achieve its goals of making materials more available, more timely, more affordable and impacting students’ learning.” Along with their savings, some students enjoy the convenience that e-books provide. “I like it because I can search for something and it will show me chapters and sections the word I’m

campus ‘Lincoln Love’ aspires to break BuckeyeThon records Amanda Pierce Lantern reporter pierce.343@osu.edu

“Lincoln Love” dance T-shirts

With 10 days left until the largest dance party on campus, members of the largest team are preparing for the 12-hour dance marathon. More than 160 dancers and $12,726.22 make up the “Lincoln Love” BuckeyeThon team, the leader in fundraising and the largest team this year. Last year, the Lincoln team was the largest group of dancers at BuckeyeThon, and this year they’re hoping to raise the bar, said Nate Miglich, a third-year in medical dietetics and “Lincoln Love” team captain. “Since we had kind of a good footing last year,” Miglich said. “We (wanted) to try to make the team bigger and better this year.” The 12-hour dance marathon supports pediatric cancer treatment at Nationwide Children’s Hospital, and the children were Miglich’s motivation to grow the Lincoln team, he said. “I think that’s really the best part that made me … want to come back this year and try to make the effort bigger and try to give back in a bigger way than we did last year,” Miglich said. The team’s success last year was key in recruitment that started as early as move-in day, Miglich said. Miglich is a resident adviser in Lincoln Tower, and said she knew residents would be eager to get involved. “In Lincoln, we usually have pretty open and energetic people here,” Miglich said. “They’re usually looking to get involved and have fun.” Kelsey Davis, a second-year in psychology, lives in Lincoln and said she decided to join the BuckeyeThon steering committee after being a dancer last year. Though she is raising money as part of the “Lincoln Love” team,

To help with fundraising, the “Lincoln Love” BuckeyeThon team created T-shirts to promote the team.

Davis said she focuses most of her time on recruitment as the residence hall recruitment chair. Last year, the Lincoln team had about 145 members and Davis said she is anxious to beat that number this year. “I check the (web)page about once an hour to check our fundraising and our dancer numbers,” Davis said. Davis said most of the “Lincoln Love” team is made up of residents, thanks to recruitment by RAs. “They’ve done a really great job of getting people involved,” Davis said. “Everyone knows their RA, and if your RA is really passionate about something, you’re going to be passionate about it.” One of Miglich’s residents is Jennifer Goodman, a first-year in

biology and “Lincoln Love” team member who, despite inexperience, said she loves to dance. “One day in high school I just found out that I really like to dance, and then I just always dance like a maniac,” Goodman. Goodman said she decided to join the “Lincoln Love” team after dancing in Metrothon, a six-hour dance marathon at Columbus Metro High School, last year. Goodman’s fundraising goal started at $80 but she has raised more than $125. The “Lincoln Love” team created T-shirts for the event and sold them to dancers to raise an additional $800 or $900, Davis said. Davis is one of the top fundraisers on the “Lincoln Love” team with $650. She said she met her goal of $300 before Thanksgiving, and continued increasing her goal to encourage more people to donate. “It was crazy,” Davis said. “I don’t really know what happened. My fundraising just kind of exploded.” As a dancer and a member of the BuckeyeThon steering committee, Davis said she is excited and nervous about the event, taking place in the Archie Griffin Grand Ballroom on Feb. 25-26. “We’re all getting really pumped and kind of nervous,” Davis said. “To me, it kind of feels like planning a wedding.” Despite pre-event jitters, Davis said she is looking forward to giving the children at Nationwide Children’s Hospital who will attend the event a night that they won’t forget. “At BuckeyeThon, they are just kids. They’re not kids with cancer,” Davis said. “They’re not kids that had chemotherapy the day before. They’re kids who are here to have a good time and see some crazy college kids dancing for them.”

Politicians affect climate change opinion, study says Kelsie Ozamiz Lantern reporter ozamiz.4@osu.edu Despite recent climate swings and climatology research, a new study suggests that politicians have the greatest influence on Americans’ opinion of climate change as a threat. Co-author of the study, J. Craig Jenkins, an Ohio State sociology professor, studied public opinion from 2002 to 2010 and compared major influences like political agendas, the economy, weather events and media coverage. “It is the political leaders in Washington who are really driving public opinion about the threat of climate change,” Jenkins told Jeff Grabmeier, director of research communication. Jenkins wasn’t available to The Lantern for com ment. According to the study, published in the online journal “Climatic Change” on Feb. 2, public opinion on the threat of climate change peaked in 2006 and 2007 when both political parties in Congress showed the highest consensus on the issue. Another key factor in 2006 was the release of the climate change advocacy documentary, “An Inconvenient Truth,” that Democratic politician Al Gore narrated. John Adams, a third-year in political science, said public opinion based on bipartisan agreement and the political environment is something America has seen before. “An example of this phenomenon is what’s called the ‘Rally Round the Flag Effect,’” Adams said.

“Which happened after 9/11 when President George W. Bush’s polls went up and reached their peak, because we were experiencing a national crisis, so politicians and people felt a consensus on the issue of threat.” The study, which compiled data from 74 separate surveys throughout nine years, showed that the state of the economy had the second biggest impact on the perception of threat of climate change. Extreme weather events and research articles published in scientific journals had no affect on the public opinion, while related articles in popular science magazines and advocacy groups had a small, but measurable effect. Amounts of media coverage on the issue weighed in significantly, but this was a product of the media covering what political leaders were saying. Public opinion declined when politicians became more polarized in their views on climate change. In 2008, Republicans were voting anti-environmental at an increasing rate, peaking in 2010. A small increase of public opinion happened in 2009 simultaneously with the U.S. House of Representatives debate and vote on the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009. “When our political leaders can’t agree on whether climate change is a threat, the majority of people can’t either,” Jenkins said. “The public is divided because our political leaders are polarized.” Jenkins said the findings of this study infer a problem with climate science communication. “The message is that they need to rethink their strategy,” Jenkins said. “Many scientists believe that if we simply educate people about climate change,

they will eventually see it as a threat and determine that we need to do something about it.” Political figures take a stand on almost every end of the spectrum, ranging from Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth,” to Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) ideas. Inhofe claims global warming is a “hoax,” and that there is not data to support people’s overreaction. Ryan Hottle, a fourth-year doctorate student in environmental science, is studying climate change mitigation in India. Hottle said he agrees with the central message the study evokes. “There’s got to be a way that the message can be delivered in a more effective manner,” Hottle said. “Part of the blame is on the climate scientists, because it’s easy to publish papers in obscure journals and present at scientific conferences around your peers, but when it comes to presenting to the general public, you can’t present in the jargon that you do at the conferences, and a lot of climate scientists have a difficult time conveying that we are in danger.”

Fredrik Logevall, international studies and history professor at Cornell University, speaks on “The Uses of Alarmism: American Politics and Foreign Policy after 1945” on Feb. 14 at the Mershon Center.

You have the ability to help ensure the well-being of patients who rely on lifesaving blood transfusions during a critical period.

America addicted to alarmism Dani Wedemeyer Lantern reporter wedemeyer.9@osu.edu America has an addictive appetite for alarmism, an appetite that one history professor argues has affected politics for more than 50 years. Fredrik Logevall, international studies and history professor at Cornell University, spoke about alarmism and how it has affected American politics and foreign policy since the mid 20th century, on Tuesday in the Mershon Center for International Security Studies. Alarmism is a way of framing an enemy in such a way that makes it seem as if it can unravel society and its threat is much greater than it really is, Logevall said. “It reinforced Americans’ moralistic tendency to see any hostility directed to their nation as legitimate and to want to frame those conflicts that did arise in black and white, good versus evil, terms — angels against devils, in which the very future of civilization was at stake,” Logevall said. “After all, a legitimate enemy is an absolute enemy, with whom you can have no dialogue or interaction until he disappears or is utterly transformed, abandoning his hostility.” Logevall focused mostly on the Cold War but also touched on the Vietnam War and the War in Iraq, and how alarmism has contributed to those wars. He said the wars would not have had the public support they had if not for the alarmist ways

the government presented the threats of the Soviet Union, Vietnam and Iraq to the American people, and that they might not have been such a focus of the public agenda. Logevall said he hoped “to explain this exaggeration of the Soviet threat in the decades after World War II. … I would argue that the phenomenon that I’m describing outlives the fall of the Soviet Union, and indeed is still with us today.” He argued although alarmism is certainly used in other countries, it is used differently in America because of the way our governmental power is disbursed. He went on to tell the audience of about 25 that U.S. political parties are weak, and because they depend on popular support, they tend to exaggerate a threat in order to gain that support and unite people in the face of a threat, real or imagined. “Any satisfactory answer to the question before us and to understanding what I refer to as the ‘uses of alarmism’ has to involve giving due attention to the manipulation of fear by officials and interest groups to gain political and institutional advantage,” he said. Sophie Shiloh, a first-year in international relations and diplomacy, said she agreed with his perspectives about alarmism. She said she thinks it is important for people to see the differences between something negative that is a tragedy because it was unavoidable, and a crime which is committed for personal gains.

Certain campus Newbern said the group was also protesting Ohio law and OSU’s policy to carry a firearm on campus. OSU Police Chief Paul Denton said OSU follows the state’s law for concealed carry, and follows OSU employee policy and student code of conduct. “We support the Second Amendment, that’s first and foremost,” Denton said. State law prohibits firearms in specified locations, including police stations, jails, day cares, airport terminals and airplanes, hospitals for the mentally ill, school safety zones, courthouses, places of religious worship, colleges and universities, and recently any location that has alcohol, Denton said. OSU has locations that fall under state law that prohibit concealed carry. For example, a student cannot walk into the police station in Blankenship Hall on campus because state law says firearms are prohibited in police stations. Similarly, a firearm cannot be carried into the Wexner Medical Center at Ohio State because it holds facilities to treat the mentally ill. Students are not able to carry a firearm on campus, Denton said, but can lock their firearm in their car before walking on campus. One side of High Street allows concealed carry, and the other does not because it is part of campus. Ross Krieg, a fifth-year in mechanical engineering, was at Tuesday’s protest. “I want to know why it’s any different that I can stand here right now, but as soon as I walk across

the street, I am perceived as irresponsible, unfit to carry a firearm,” Krieg said. “What changes across High Street?” Krieg said his life was saved because he had a firearm after an attack in December 2010 on Patterson Avenue, north of campus. “I was on my way to a friend’s house and a guy jumped me, tackled me and was beating me,” Krieg said. “After a losing battle and damage to my face, I drew my firearm and gave the perpetrator a choice.” Krieg said his attacker ran away and he did not have to fire his weapon. “It’s not that I don’t feel safe on campus, it’s traveling off campus,” Krieg said. Newbern said he carries a firearm for his own personal safety too. “It takes away the likelihood that a criminal will target us,” Newbern said. Denton said he believes possessing a firearm on campus grounds will not improve safety on campus. “I don’t think having more guns on campus makes us a safer place and the law does not need to be changed,” Denton said. Anastasia Pataky, a second-year in fashion and retail studies, said she is in support of OSU’s policy. “I think that it would cause way too many problems and put students in a vulnerable state,” Pataky said. “We’re young, we’re learning, we don’t need to put kids in jail for accidental gunfire. I just think there is so much danger, I just don’t see the necessity of (concealed carry).” Rami Aziz, a second-year in political science, said the main reason he wants to carry his firearm is to protect himself, not to cause an uproar. “We don’t want to break the law,” Aziz said. “We’re not outlaws.”

Despite their growing popularity, some students prefer hard copy books. “I prefer to be able to touch and flip the pages, it’s a psychological thing,” said Carolina Alvarez, a first-year in animal sciences. Vatsal Patel, a third-year in pharmaceutical sciences, had opposite feelings. He said he prefers digital textbooks because he does not want to carry “tons of books” or have to read from a “big textbook.” He said reading with an iPad is easier because of its light weight. Lissner said he does not see any huge changes in student textbook use in the short run, but does see a lot of potential for the new digital textbook service in the long run. “I would guess … we’re a good five or six years from e-books truly being the norm,” he said. “I don’t think it will develop across the board.

Logevall is a leader in U.S. foreign relations history. “There is a lot more at play when people decide to go to war than, ‘Is it right?’ or, ‘Is this gonna help us?’ There’s money, there’s political gains, there’s, you know, societal pressure — there’s just so many more things than just the conflict itself and he really emphasized that,” Shiloh said. “I think that’s really important for people to understand, especially when he was talking about the tragedy versus the Machiavellian approach.” Logevall is the John S.

Logevall earned his Ph.D. in 1993 from Yale University after earning his Bachelor’s degree from Simon Fraser University in 1986. He has had eight books published, and is working on another.

Nook tablet, smaller campus bookstores don’t have that advantage. Bookstores like UBX Book Exchange on 15th Avenue revolve around the textbook business, and the growing popularity of e-books and online retailers has taken a toll on profits. Andrew Gordon, general manager of UBX Book Exchange, said he thinks there are benefits that outweigh the extra cost that comes with using a traditional textbook. “There is functionality missing in e-books. With e-books, after a certain amount of time, your license expires and you can’t use the book anymore,” Gordon said. Instead of expiring after a set time, the owner has total control of a hard copy book once it’s in their possession, Gordon said. “You can sell it or you can hold onto it,” Gordon said. Publishers and e-reader producers are expecting e-book popularity to skyrocket in the coming years, but there are some students who don’t think they can be convinced to go digital with their reading. “If I can have a book in hand,” Alvarez said. “I’d rather not use e-books.”

Logevall ended by saying that journalists, as a whole, did not question the Iraq War when it first began, and that America has an addiction to alarmism. “America still spends more on its military than, depending on how you measure it, either the rest of the world combined or the next 11 or 12 countries combined. It still spends about 10 times more than its closest competitor, that being China,” he said. “The addiction continues.”

Meyer’s recruiting can’t be stopped LANTERN Columnist

ETHAN STRAUB straub.60@osu.edu

If anyone thought Urban Meyer would take a vacation once the hustle and bustle of National Signing Day passed, that person was poorly mistaken. Just two weeks after securing the fourth-ranked recruiting class in the nation for 2012, according to recruiting outlet Rivals.com, the Buckeyes have

already received commitments from the top two players in Ohio for the class of 2013. Still four months away from completing their junior year in high school, defensive back Cameron Burrows of Trotwood-Madison High School in Trotwood, Ohio, and athlete Jalin Marshall of Middletown High School in Middletown, Ohio, rated seventh and 41st in the nation, respectively, by Rivals, have given verbal commitments to attend Ohio State. Burrows, rated as the third-best defensive back in the country and a fivestar prospect, recorded 46 tackles, four interceptions, and 12 pass breakup in his junior year, helping Trotwood-Madison to a 14-0 season and a state title. Burrows committed on Jan.19 and will help solidify the Buckeyes secondary likely at corner. Marshall, who plays quarterback for his Middletown team, is listed as an athlete and is projected to play wide

receiver or running back at the next level. He threw for 782 yards and six touchdowns and ran for an astounding 1,859 yards and 20 touchdowns. He committed on Jan. 30 and will likely be a wide receiver in Columbus as a speedy playmaker and possibly returning kicks. The commitments are huge for Meyer and the Buckeyes, who will try to put a fence around Ohio’s borders and reel in as many prospects from what is projected to be one of the deepest talent pools in the state in recent history. Michigan coach Brady Hoke persuaded last year’s top-rated player in Ohio, offensive tackle Kyle Kalis of St. Edward High School in Lakewood, Ohio, to head north and become a Wolverine, after having previously committed to the Buckeyes. But that was then and this is now. Meyer’s recruiting prowess has been on full display for the world to see in his short time in Columbus.

And he wasn’t done yet. On Tuesday, Billy Price, a defensive tackle of Austintown Fitch High School in Austintown, Ohio, also gave a verbal pledge to Meyer, making the class threedeep. Price is ranked as the 11th best defensive tackle prospect in the nation, and 130th overall by Rivals. Price, a four-star prospect, gives the Buckeyes commitments from three of the top 10 prospects in Ohio. But wait, there’s more. Defensive back prospect Eli Woodard, rated as the fifth-best defensive back prospect nationally and 28th overall, announced that he will be making his college decision this Thursday via Twitter. Woodard, the top-ranked player in New Jersey, was in Columbus this past weekend on an unofficial visit, and is said to be picking between OSU, Notre Dame and Rutgers. Should Woodard commit to the Buckeyes, he would give Ohio State

three of the top 41 recruits in the nation for the class of 2013. By comparison, the Buckeyes only had two commitments from the top 60 prospects in 2012, and that was a full year’s class. National Signing Day 2013 is still more than 11 months away. To be sure, nothing is set in stone. Meyer, who was recently the subject of criticism after signing players who had verbally committed to other schools, knows better than anyone that until there is a signature on paper, these players could change their mind. But regardless of the possibility that these recruits will change their minds before National Signing Day 2013, Meyer is scary good at this stuff. And with spring practice getting ready to begin, September creeps closer, and there is plenty to be excited about in Columbus as a new era begins.

Spike Lee hit nail on head with advice, films QYNSHELA SANDERS Lantern reporter sanders.443@osu.edu Recently, legendary filmmaker Spike Lee spoke to Ohio State students about education, his achievements and political views, the importance of studying what you are passionate about and not letting anyone, mainly parents, detour you from your dreams. On Feb. 13, BET aired the BET Honors award show in which they honored Spike Lee for his many contributions to the film world and to the black community. The BET Honors award show deviates from the standard award show, which honors musicians and actors for their creative work. This particular award show celebrates excellence that certain African-American entertainers and activists have obtained throughout their career. Alongside Lee, Maya Angelou, Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder, the Tuskegee Airmen and Beverly Kearney were honored for their many

contributions to history in their respective careers. Director John Singleton introduced Spike Lee by describing his first time meeting Lee while he was going to film school and when Lee was filming “She’s Gotta Have It.” Various people gave their own personal stories about

Lee, including Samuel L. Jackson. Many of Lee’s films, such as “Malcolm X,” “Do the Right Thing” and “He Got Game,” all of these films have what some consider “controversial” themes. Racism, police brutality and the struggle of the young black male cycle throughout these films and Lee’s other works.

Director Spike Lee speaks in the Ohio Union’s Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom Feb. 9.

Jackson explained, however, that Lee’s films were not controversial, but were “touching, tender spots in our culture.” Lee said after receiving his award, “My films reflect my views.” How he felt about what he was experiencing is what influenced these films. I believe Lee was not out to try to persuade anyone with his films, but was shedding light on subjects that are often sidelined. He captured the very essence of the cultural issues the black community faced, and displayed them in a way that his audience could relate to. That, to me, showed his genius. Just as Lee explained in his sit-down session with OSU students that “parents can be the biggest dream killers,” he made the same statement in his acceptance speech. I feel that he was on to something. I know for myself, entering a level of higher education meant a greater chance for me to be financially stable. I honestly did not come into college following my dreams, or doing what I loved. My goal was

to make money and make my mother proud. Lee’s statement really hit home because I saw myself traveling down a road that would lead to me being an adult who hates their profession. I had to realize what was more important to me — being financially successful or being happy? I came to the conclusion that being happy with what you do and doing what you love is being successful; the finances will come with hard work. Just look at Spike Lee; a starving film student with a dream of becoming a filmmaker. He overcame the odds that were against him and used the criticism he received as motivation. Now he is an award-winning influential filmmaker. His story is the epitome of staying true to what you love and following your heart. Lee’s honor was well-deserved. I hope the future looks bright for Spike Lee and that he continues to share his views on “controversial” issues with us and remains steadfast in enlightening us on subjects that are sometimes overlooked.

OSU sophomore tennis player Blaz Rola prepares to return the ball during a match against Indiana in the ITA Kickoff Jan. 29 in Columbus, Ohio. Rola did not finish his singles match against Hoosiers junior Isade Juneau. OSU won, 4-0.

Great Blaz of fire: The ace of OSU tennis Lisa Barefield Lantern reporter barefield.2@osu.edu One visit to Ohio State was enough to convince sophomore Blaz Rola to leave his professional tennis career behind in Ptuj, Slovenia, and move more than 4,660 miles to join the OSU men’s tennis team. “I didn’t actually want to go to college,” Rola said. “But when I came here with my mom, we loved it from the first day.” Two years ago, Rola was busy winning singles and doubles titles on the professional circuit in Slovenia and in tournaments around the world. Rola, a second-year in international business, now spends most of his time at the Varsity Indoor Tennis Center on Henderson Road. “My family never really thought I was going to go to college in America or play professionally,” he said. Rola began playing tennis when he was 7 years old. By the time he was 19, he had won the La Vie Sport Junior Cup Villach Championship in Austria and was ranked as high as No. 388 in the world. One year at the professional level

and 18 months of recruitment emails from OSU men’s tennis coach, Ty Tucker, recruited Rola to Columbus. “I found him in Essen, Germany, at the German Junior Open a few years back,” Tucker said. “I just stayed on top of him and kept talking to him. We got him here for a visit and he liked what he saw and thought he could keep developing.” Rola did develop — into the eighth-ranked college singles player in the nation. Rola said the transition was difficult, but living with two senior tennis players made it easier. “After a couple of weeks, it just felt like home and felt like all of those guys are my brothers,” he said. The most challenging part of the transition has not been missing his family or long flights home — it has been adjusting to courts made of concrete as opposed to the clay courts he grew accustomed to in Slovenia, Rola said. In his first year, Rola made the OSU tennis record books. He holds the ninth-place record for most singles wins in a season with 41 and the 10th-place record for most doubles wins in a season (34). His 41 singles wins in a season are ninth

most all-time, while his 34 doubles wins in a season are 10th most. Rola opened Big Ten play in his sophomore season Sunday with a 6-2, 6-2 victory against Michigan State’s junior Denis Bogatov. His doubles success began when he met teammate and partner, senior Chase Buchanan. “He just came and worked hard from the very first day and it didn’t take a lot to get him going,” said Buchanan. “He was self-motivated and a great friend to all of us.” The duo made collegiate tennis history when they became only the sixth pair to win USTA/ITA All-American and National Indoors Doubles titles in the same year. Buchanan and Rola defeated No.1- and No.3-seeded athletes in both championship matches and went 16-7 on the 2010-2011 season. Big Ten Athlete of the Week honors have been bestowed on Rola four times in his career with OSU. He has shared the award with Buchanan, who received the honor Tuesday, twice already this season. They carried their success into Sunday’s Big Ten Opener, when the pair, ranked first in the nation, defeated Michigan State’s freshman

Aaron Pfister and sophomore Drew Lied, 8-3, en route to the No. 3 Buckeyes’ 7-0 victory against the Spartans. But Tucker said it is not just Rola’s accomplishments on the court that he respects. “What do I like about him? Everything,” Tucker said. “Works hard, gets good grades, he’s a great guy.” When Rola travels to Ptuj during school breaks, he visits with his family for a while and then it’s back to business. “During summer I basically don’t go home because I want to play as much as I can,” he said. “I’ll hang out with my family for a little bit and then start playing tournaments.” Rola said he plans to get his degree and continue his professional career overseas and he and Buchanan have talked about remaining partners. “Oh man, we’d both love to play with each other after doubles on the pro tour,” Buchanan said. “He’s from Europe, I’m from the States, but if that works out, that’d be awesome.” The Buckeyes head to Charlottesville, Va., Feb. 17-21 to compete with 15 other teams in the ITA National Indoor Championships. OSU won the ITA Kick-Off Weekend to earn their spot at the Championships.

Russian swordsman slices fencing niche Nick Dvorscak Lantern reporter dvorscak.2@osu.edu Imagine that one day you receive a phone call from Ohio State football legend Archie Griffin and he offers you a coaching job at OSU. After hearing Griffin out, you respectively decline his offer because you don’t think you’re ready for the job. This was the reality for fencing coach Vladimir Nazlymov in 1999 while working in Kansas City, Mo., as the fencing coach for the school district. “I said, ‘I’m not ready for this,’” Nazlymov said. “I didn’t know who he was.” Nazlymov said he received a phone call from the director of the Kansas City sports commission immediately after declining Griffin’s offer. “He called me and asked why I told Archie no,” Nazlymov said. “He told me I couldn’t say no to Archie.” On this advice, Nazlymov decided to come to OSU to tour the facilities and find out if the job was right for him. After the tour, Griffin asked Nazlymov what they needed to do to make the fencing program one of the top three in the country, Nazlymov said. “I asked ‘Why top three?’” Nazlymov said. “Why not win?” Nazlymov said he told Griffin he could turn the program around in three years. “I said three years was enough. Of course he didn’t believe me,” Nazlymov said. Nazlymov said he was confident if he came to OSU, he would be able to recruit strong coaches and the best fencers would follow. He said he told Griffin if he didn’t turn the program around in three years, Griffin could fire him. Fast forward to 2012 and Nazlymov has more than fulfilled his promise to turn the fencing program around at OSU. Under Nazlymov’s guidance, the program is now

in its 10th consecutive season among the nation’s top five-ranked programs. This is Nazlymov’s 13th season as coach of the fencing program. Prior to the start of this season, he had compiled a combined men and women’s record of 414-97. He added National Championships to his resume in 2004 and 2008. Nazlymov’s road to fencing greatness began almost by accident. As a young child growing up in what was then the Soviet Union, Nazlymov described himself as being “not a nice kid.” He said he was constantly getting into trouble. After one particular incident in which Nazlymov almost lost sight in one eye, he said he saw an announcement for fencing and went from there. Nazlymov’s fencing career took off from there and he eventually found himself on the Soviet Union Military Fencing Team. He said this team had “the best coaches, best facilities.” “Army is army. They have everything,” he said. On the individual level, Nazlymov, who has six Olympic medals including three golds, was named the world’s best fencer by the International Fencing Federation twice. He became coach of the Soviet Union Military Fencing Team in 1976 and remained coach until 1990. He came to the United States in 1991. It was during his time with the Soviet Union Military Fencing Team that Nazlymov’s winning attitude was instilled, he said. “For many years I worked in the Soviet Union,” he said. “I couldn’t be second.” He joked that his superior in the army might have sent him to Siberia if he had gotten second place. Once again, Nazlymov said he has high hopes for his team this season. Last season the men and women’s teams combined for a fifth place finish at the NCAA championships. Nazlymov said that last year the team was “terrible.”

OSU fencing coach Vladimir Nazlymov won six Olympic medals during his time as a swordsman. “This season, I hope for sure we are better,” he said. Senior saberist Max Stearns echoed his coach’s sentiments. “Even before the season started we have one of the most complete teams in the NCAA, I think across all weapons and genders,” Stearns said. “Expectations on the team are very high; we’re working towards bringing back a championship.” After the men and women went a combined 13-0 at the Northwestern Duals Feb. 4, the teams now have a combined record of 33-2. “I don’t want to be second,” Nazlymov said. The team will continue their season Feb. 26 at the US Collegiate Championships in New York, N.Y. The office of Archie Griffin at the OSU Alumni Association did not immediately respond to The Lantern’s request for comment.

The Short North Stage is offering the chance to travel into the past, sans a time machine, in its production of “The Marvelous Wonderettes.” The show opens at 8 p.m. Thursday and will run through March 4. “The Marvelous Wonderettes” is the first full musical and second full production at the Garden Theatre since it re-opened in October. Roger Bean wrote and created the off-Broadway musical that follows four high school friends in an all-girl singing group, The Marvelous Wonderettes. The production will be housed in the Green Room of the Garden Theatre. “I’m really excited to show the space off because it hasn’t been used in this capacity before,” said Jacquie Miller, who plays attention-seeking Betty Jean in the musical. “This is the first time this space is being used for a theatrical production.” Miller, Dionysia Williams, Jackie Comisar, Maya Sayre and Katie Kerry make up the four-part cast. Kerry has a swing role in the musical, which serves as an understudy for multiple roles. Outside of their full-time jobs (including motherhood for some), each woman has their own challenges and excitement within the musical. Kerry said the balancing act of raising three children while assuming her role in the musical is the most taxing feat. “It’s just about truly focusing on each job individually and not trying to multitask them together,” Kerry said. “You know, when I’m a mom I have to be a mom, and when I’m an actor, I’m an actor.” Williams faced similar difficulty in trying to balance the different personality traits of her character, Cindy Lou. “I’m kind of like the pretty prom queen,” Williams said. “So the challenge is to still give her some heart while she is still kind of being a little witchy. You’re not going to like her at times, but you still want the audience to feel for her. In Act 2, she definitely has the biggest journey.” The cultural shift from the 1950s to the ‘60s is captured through almost 30 songs in four-part harmony featured in the production, including the iconic Chordettes’ “Mr. Sandman” and “Lollipop.”

‘The Marvelous Wonderettes’ is scheduled to begin its run at the Garden Theatre at 8 p.m. Feb. 16. Comisar cited the amount of material in the show as her biggest challenge in the musical. “The show is a lot of physical comedy with props,” said Comisar, who plays Missy, the overachiever. “Pacing and just coordinating … has been a little bit of a challenge.” The first scene opens to the Wonderettes’ 1958 Springfield prom, where the group replaces the previously scheduled entertainment, and picks up 10 years later at their high school reunion. Director of the musical, Matt Clemens, said the first act showcases the bubblegum feel that represented the 1950s. The time where “nobody ever says dirty words,” he said. “In Act 2 … they are much more adult,” Clemens said. “The music of the ‘60s lends itself to more hip movement. We have no hip movement in Act 1. It’s all very upper body and very cutesy.” At first, the choreographer of the musical, Tony Calucci, found it difficult to mimic those subtle upper body gestures that resonate with 1950s female performers. “They all stood and sang,” Calucci said. “There

wasn’t a lot of movement. They were all dressed in pretty dresses and they stood still and did very little movement, until you get to the ‘60s and then the influence of groups like The Supremes. They created movement.” Calucci studied old 1950s and 1960s performance recordings by female singing groups in preparation to choreograph the show. His goal is to send the audience back in time through the dance featured in the show. Sayre, who plays Suzy, said she found her background in musical theater helped her juggle the many elements featured in the show, including dance. “Singing the four-part harmony, while doing the choreography, while maintaining your character,” Sayre said. “That’s probably the biggest challenge with the choreography for me, just remembering it while trying to do all the other things.” Tickets to see “The Marvelous Wonderettes” are $22 and can be purchased by calling (866) 967-8167.

Lana-less Lollapalooza lineup worth it with red hot roster that’s sure to work it

Ally Marotti marotti.5@osu.edu have made 2011’s lineup any better would have been Adele. But then I dove a little deeper into the lineup and saw Missy Elliott’s name, which immediately reversed my doubtfulness about whether I wanted to attend this year. Other leaked acts include The Shins, Passion Pit, Antlers, Wale and Guided By Light. M.I.A. is also listed, who, besides her appearance in the halftime show of the 2012 Super Bowl as no more than a backup dancer for Madonna, I hadn’t heard from since I was in high school. Looping back to the headliners for a second, Red Hot Chili Peppers are a must-see. I studied in Barcelona, Spain,

Autumn Quarter, and they played there Dec. 15, the night before I flew home. I would have loved to get myself a going-away present of tickets to their concert, but, alas, they were too expensive. Then, in its effort to follow me wherever I am in the world, no doubt, the Chili Peppers announced a Columbus concert. But the cheapest tickets were almost $150, which was quite a distance from my price range. So if a concert featuring just the Chili Peppers in Columbus is just slightly cheaper than a music festival with countless bands in Grant Park, I’d say their presence alone makes it worth it. But as much as I love this lineup, especially the Missy Elliott rumor, there is a huge chunk of my concert-loving heart that hopes @LollaLeaks’ predictions are wrong. There is one huge, gaping, supermassive black hole missing in 2012’s lineup: Lana Del Rey. Since the release of her CD “Born to Die” a couple weeks ago, she’s proven there’s no one who better deserves to headline Lolla. Until Lollapalooza releases its official lineup, I’ll be holding out hope and I’ll be whistling her name, even if she’s not there. So yes, it’s worth it.

Miranda Lambert fires shots at Chris Brown’s Grammy gigs Nicki Minaj’s outlandish performance Sunday wasn’t the only aspect of the 54th annual Grammy Awards that some people found unsettling. Country musician Miranda Lambert had a particularly hard time understanding why Chris Brown was such a prominent figure of the evening. On Monday, the singer tweeted “Chris Brown twice? I don’t get it. He beat on a girl,” and “Not cool that we act like that didn’t happen. He needs to listen to Gunpowder and lead and be put back in his place. Not at the Grammys.” “Gunpowder and Lead” is a song Lambert co-wrote in 2007, expressing her plans to shoot her abusive husband when he is released from jail. While this might sound a little cruel, I can’t say I completely disagree.

Is it worth it? For the second year in a row, @LollaLeaks, a Twitter user who calls himself an anonymous insider, has leaked the Lollapalooza lineup, the same day that Bonnaroo, a June outdoor music festival in Manchester, Tenn., released its 2012 official lineup. If this leaked lineup proves to be as accurate as last year’s, driving six hours to Chicago and paying about $200 for the threeday music festival will be totally worth it. At first I was skeptical. The initial adrenaline rush I experienced when I saw that rumored headliners include Beyoncé, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Killers, Beck, Metallica and Sonic Youth, was more about the slim chance of Blue Ivy making an appearance than the actual headliners themselves. It would be almost impossible to top last year’s headliners Coldplay, Eminem, Muse, My Morning Jacket and Foo Fighters. Not to mention last year included appearances from Christina Perri, Foster the People, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Fitz & The Tantrums and a stream of other stand-up artists. The only thing that could

COLLIN HOWARD howard.@osu.edu If Lambert was truly suggesting Brown be shot for his actions, then I would say she’s gone a little crazy, but I don’t think that is the case. She was merely showing Brown that some

women are capable of fending for themselves and wouldn’t think twice to do so. It was her way of telling him that just because he got away with it once doesn’t mean he will again. Personally, I believe Lambert was completely in the right on this one. I respect Brown for his music and talent, but as a human being, I think he has a lot to prove. Any man who lays a hand on a woman is a coward. They lack not only self-control and self-respect, but respect for others as well. I don’t think his punishment was severe enough, and I definitely think it was too soon for him to be a Grammy performer, let alone twice in one night, as if he was being awarded for accomplishing an impossible feat. Look at the situation on a local level. If somebody in our community

breaks the law, especially when an act is directed towards someone else, we are not quick to forgive. If they beat a woman or child, we label them and look at them in a completely different light. But because of his celebrity caliber and his dashing good looks, a majority of the country is willing to turn the other cheek. We like to think that celebrities live this fantasy life and that the negative things they do don’t really happen, but I can assure you this is not the case. Brown is a human being, and his actions only further proved that. No matter how much fame or fortune you have, you can mess up. Kudos to you, Lambert, for being brave enough to say what a lot of us were thinking.
