OUAB 2012 budget

1B

The Ohio Union Activities Board spent more than $1 million of its nearly $1.9 million budget on artist fees during the organization’s 2011 fiscal year. This year, the budget surpassed $2 million and the group is set to spend more on artist fees.

Acts the group brought to campus in OUABsponsored events during that time, which stretches from August 2010-June 2011, include rappers B.o.B and Lupe Fiasco, county artist Kellie Pickler, rock band Weezer, actors Ty Burell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Eric Stonestreet of TV’s “Modern Family,” comedian Michael Ian Black, “Juno” director Jason Reitman and R&B crooner John Legend.

OUAB is scheduled to host Taking Back Sunday as its Winter Concert at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Newport Music Hall. City Lights is set to open.

For the 2012 fiscal year, OUAB has been allocated a budget of almost $2.1 million, which is larger than the budgets allocated for activities boards at some other Big Ten schools, such as the University of Wisconsin and the University of Illinois. The group has spent about $1.3 million on its quarterly programming, including artist fees, among other things, with $300,000 set aside separately for “large events,” such as the Big Free Concert.

Columbine High School, Case Western University, Virginia Tech, Chardon High School.

All of these schools have been impacted by shootings in some shape or form, and were of different magnitudes, fatalities and motives.

But all of them centered around violence and issues that adolescents might face every day.

The most recent being the shooting at Chardon High School near Cleveland, Ohio, Monday morning. The shooting left three students dead and two injured, but in stable condition. The alleged gunman, Thomas Lane, 17, began shooting in the cafeteria and was later chased out of the school. He later turned himself in and is in custody, according to multiple reports.

Multiple news reports suggest Lane was bullied and that could have been one of several possible motives.

Dr. Deanna Wilkinson, an associate professor in the Department of Human Development and Family Science, highlighted that reports of bullying being at the root of the shooting are not substantiated.

“It looks more like it’s a mental health, depression issue more so than bullying being a major part of it,” Wilkinson said.

Because bullying in schools has received more media attention recently, it might be easy to jump to the issue while overlooking other important aspects, said Mollie Blackburn, an associate professor in the College of Education and Human Ecology.

Sophomore forward Jared Sullinger goes up for a shot against Wisconsin on Feb. 26. OSU lost, 63-60.

Jared Sullinger has been worrying more about whistles than winning lately.

The Ohio State men’s basketball sophomore forward said Tuesday a lack of mental focus has been affecting his recent play.

“Honestly, mentally I couldn’t really tell you what’s going on,” Sullinger said. “I’m always thinking about how can I play? Is the ref going to call this foul or is the ref going to call that foul? I’m constantly worrying (more) about the refs than how I’m supposed to play.”

Along with officiating, Sullinger said he has been concentrating too much on negative attention on Twitter and in the media. He said the issues have been “strictly mental.”

“It’s just me letting the refs get to me,” he said.

“Or just letting everything on the outside get to me and just letting it start to creep in, and starting to focus on other stuff besides the basketball team

and what this team needs me to do for us to win basketball games.”

Sullinger denied that a decision about entering the NBA draft after the season is affecting his performance.

“No, not at all,” he said. “If it was, I would have told you. But it’s not. I can care less what happens after April. Really my focus is on this basketball team and how we can get better.

“I know I’ve probably been being dogged by a lot of people or people are saying I’m not as good as I used to be, but at the end of the day, it’s not about what they think, it’s about how can we win basketball games. If that’s me having eight points and two rebounds or me having 20 points and 12 rebounds, at the end of the day, it’s all about winning, and I can care less what people think.”

The Buckeyes have lost three of five games and have dropped from No. 3 to No. 10 in the AP Top 25 rankings over that span. Sullinger has failed to reach double digits in scoring the last two games and coach Thad Matta seemed to question Sullinger’s

campus Chardon shooting was tragic but preventable CAMPUS Columnist

CAITLYN WASMUNDT wasmundt.1@osu.edu

Tragedy. Terror. Confusion. Loss.

These along with many other words come to mind when thinking about the Chardon High School shooting, an event that has made international news.

Tragedy struck at CHS Monday morning when a shooting left three students dead and two other students injured. The alleged shooter, 17-year-old Thomas Lane, opened fire in the school cafeteria before a teacher chased him out of the school.

Daniel Parmertor, 16, died several hours after the shooting, according to multiple reports. Russell King Jr., 17, died Monday night and Demetrius Hewlin, 16, died Tuesday morning. The two injured students remain hospitalized, according to reports.

It is not only high schools that fall

victim to these unfathomable events, but colleges and even elementary schools.

CHS is the second school in less than one week that has had a known issue with gun violence. An elementary school in Bremerton, Wash., also reported a shooting Feb. 22.

Although the situations behind the two shootings are different, there is still a question of why.

The shooting at Bremerton was reportedly an accident, but the 9-yearold boy accused of shooting a fellow classmate said he had a gun because he felt he needed protection, according to multiple reports.

But again, the question of why arises.

Why would a 9-year-old think he needed such severe protection? Did he think he needed it from strangers or bullies?

There are constant reports of bullying in all forms, from social media to the classic “Give me your lunch money” command, but the truth is, people don’t realize how these little quips or mean gestures can affect the way someone behaves, not only in the present but in the future.

It’s heartbreaking to think of the events that have transpired in the past few days, let alone the past few years.

As a Cleveland-area native, it terrifies me to think how close these shootings

THOMAS ONDREY / Cleveland Plain Dealer

Students and parents exit the Chardon High School campus after 5 students were shot there Monday, Feb. 27. are getting to home. I did not go to CHS, but I am familiar with the area.

This style of shootings again make me ask why.

Why does one feel this is the only way to get through life?

I wonder what does one have to go through to ever reach that point, but in a way, I am glad that I do not know.

I feel bad for the victims and the families involved, but also that the accused gunman reached this point in his life.

Was this a case of mistreated childhood or bullying?

Bullying is something that can range in severity. There have almost always

been schoolyard bullies and teasings, but they are growing into something that throws our whole society into jeopardy.

There have been multiple stories in the media of students who have dealt with the bullying in different ways, but most of the stories we see end in death in some way, either the public displays we have seen in recent days or more private actions, such as self-inflicted cuttings or suicides.

We need to realize how our actions impact those around us. This, for me, is made even more obvious because the proximity of my hometown to where the shooting occurred, but this should matter to every human being.

We need to raise people up and encourage others to stand up for what they believe in. We shouldn’t chastise someone for his or her differences.

We need to treat people with love and respect.

This could have been something brought on by severe loneliness. We need to reach out to people and look out for those who might be in some kind of trouble. We as a culture need to stand up and do our part for each other. If you see someone having a bad day just take a moment and say, “Hi,” talk to the person, even if it is a complete stranger. We don’t know how our small actions can change someone else’s life.

McDonald’s shakes it up with popular holiday treat KRISTEN MITCHELL Lantern reporter mitchell.935@osu.edu

THOMAS BRADLEY / Campus editor

The McDonald’s mint milkshake is only available for a few weeks, but on campus, it can be even more difficult to find.

The McDonald’s on 1972 N. High St. sells more than 900 Shamrock Shakes a week, which exceeds the amount sold at many other stores in the area, said Todd Hayes, manager of the McDonald’s on High Street.

McDonald’s employees are at a loss for why the shake is so popular with Ohio State students.

“I have not a clue, I’ve wondered that myself,” Hayes said. “It’s some of the excitement that it’s back this year. It’s popular because St. Patrick’s Day isn’t that far away, and students like St. Patrick’s Day.” The Shamrock Shake is only available in the weeks leading up to the holiday, so students have a small window to indulge.

“It’s one time a year, so I have to get them in during that time, even though I crave them all year,” said Brionna Devos, a second-year in finance and accounting.

Some shake lovers find a way around the limited availability.

“They say people buy a bunch of them and freeze them for later,” said Belinda Watts, manager of McDonald’s.

The shake is so popular on campus, the store wasn’t receiving enough syrup a week to last more than a few days.

“We had to ask for special exceptions for more syrup. They only wanted to send

us two cases a week, which we go through in about a day,” Hayes said.

Every case contains two gallons of syrup, and selling four gallons a week wasn’t enough for OSU, where more than 900 shakes were sold during the week of Feb. 20. Hayes said they go through about 10 cases of syrup every week, which is unusual.

“With other special flavors, we go through two cases in about a month,” he said.

Hayes speculated that the flavor was so popular because it was only available for a few weeks and some students agreed.

“It’s rare, and people want it because other people want it. It’s green and in the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, so I don’t think it would be this popular all the time,” said Andrew Friedhoff, a fifth-year in operations management.

The campus location will occasionally run out of the mint syrup, leaving some shake-less students upset.

“I would be sad, really sad, but I would just try again the next day,” Friedhoff said.

Other area-restaurants have seasonal specials that attract attention like the Shamrock Shake. Specialty items such as Starbucks’ Pumpkin Spice Latte and Tim Horton’s Candy Cane Chocolate Doughnut are only available certain times of the year.

While some students complain about the limited availability of the shake, others complain about the cost.

Nate Moyer, a first-year in computer science and engineering, bought his first Shamrock Shake Feb. 27.

“I never try the limited edition stuff, so I wanted to try this. It’s a little more expensive than I thought it would be,” he said.

A Shamrock Shake is $1.99 for a small, $2.49 for a medium and $2.89 for a large.

Despite the expense, some students enjoy the flavor.

“It’s different, the minty flavor is unusual.

More like my favorite ice cream, mint chocolate chip,” Devos said.

While several employees could not confirm a date when they will halt sales of the Shamrock Shake, it will not be available long after the March 17 holiday has passed.

Brad Frederick and Ashley Goins, a 5th-year in logistics management and marketing, met online on Match.com.

Some students meet their match on dating websites, raise dating bar KELSIE OZAMIZ Lantern reporter ozamiz.4@osu.edu Match.com’s homepage claims that one in five relationships start online.

Whether that number can apply to college students is unknown, but the negative stigma attached to online dating is fading for some students.

Ashley Goins, a fifth-year in logistics management and marketing, met her boyfriend of more than one year on the match-making website, and said the college bar scene was one of the reasons she joined.

“I wanted to meet someone who had the same interests as me, and I knew another student that had met someone on it,” Goins said. “It’s hard to find dates out at bars that aren’t just trying to go home with you.”

According to a Northwestern University study by Eli Finkel, an associate professor of psychology at Northwestern, part of an attitude change about online dating can come from word-of-mouth.

Individuals in one’s social circle, like Goins’, find success in online dating.

With the growing popularity of social media sites, people share more information about themselves than in the past, which also contributes to this phenomenon.

Robert Arkin, an Ohio State psychology professor, said people are probably more honest on online dating sites than other social media sites.

“I would expect people are probably moderately honest on online dating, because ultimately they know they’ll have to meet this person face-to-face,” Arkin said. “People are probably more straightforward on online dating than Facebook, because there’s no one to check you or

no lie detector test like there would be with meeting someone in person.”

Finkel’s study also said that at the turn of the millennium, college students had more negative than positive attitudes about online dating due to the fear of dishonesty in profiles, dating sites being unsafe and it taking longer to get to know a person online than in person.

Treva Jungbluth, a second-year in speech and hearing science, said though she didn’t see herself using an online dating site, the stigma is gone.

“College, I think, is a little early to start looking; you meet so many people in college,” Jungbluth said. “But if you really want to you can. I don’t disapprove of it at all, I just think online dating is more serious than casual dating, and it’s so popular now, there really isn’t a negative stigma.”

Arkin suggests part of the stigma comes from the notion that if one joins an online dating site, one has failed in the face-to-face interaction. Akua Adu-gyamfi, a third-year in psychology, said she feels the stigma still exists, but didn’t rule out trying it herself.

“I would consider using it. Why not?”

Adu-Gyamfi said. “I feel like you can’t limit yourself to just your surroundings, because you may meet someone really interesting or someone you’re compatible with, but there is still a stigma. I feel like if you do that people are like, ‘Oh, you’re that desperate?’”

Finkel’s study concluded that online dating has “radically altered the dating landscape” since it began in some ways positively, and in other ways not.

Goins, who found success in online dating, suggests that students who are apprehensive about it should “just do it.”

“The worst thing that could happen is that a date doesn’t go well, but that sort of thing happens anyway,” Goins said. “You might find someone really great, too.”

Clarification

Gee said

“Although we are not halfway through Winter Quarter, we anticipate that we have spent about half of our budget for the year at this point on Summer, Fall and Winter expenses, including graduate and professional student programming, marketing and administrative costs,” said OUAB adviser Katie Krajny in an email.

OUAB garnered a surplus of about $114,000 in 2011. Krajny said OUAB plans for a 0-5 percent surplus every year in case of emergency or an “unexpected event opportunity.” She said the 2011 surplus has been allocated to this year’s budget.

The group also spent $5,624.42 in 2011 on a trip to the national convention for the National Association for Campus Activities. It also spent more than $159,000 on space rental and more than $107,000 on equipment rental for things such as concerts and securing rights for film screenings.

Richard Vedder, a retired economics professor from Ohio University who studies higher education financing, described OUAB’s budget as a “wild, huge budget” and said it strikes him as “a little bit on the high side.” Vedder said such a budget begs the question: “Is college about learning or … is it about going to concerts?” But he said the budget is justified, if the market calls for it.

“Some kids want to go to concerts, so if the market supports it, it’s worth it,” Vedder said.

OUAB is fully funded by the Student Activity Fee. Students pay a $25 Student Activity Fee per quarter.

That fee will rise to $37.50 when the university moves to semesters.

In an OSU Board of Trustees meeting Feb. 10, a revision was made in regard to competitive bidding, which states that the senior vice president for business and finance and university chief financial officer, Geoff Chatas, or someone on his behalf, is authorized to enter agreements without competitive bidding with entertainment acts.

Krajny said this essentially means OUAB negotiates with the artists while the president or senior vice president for business and finance signs off on it.

“Because OUAB is funded by the Student Activity Fee and a university entity, only the VP for Business & Finance or his designee is able to sign our contracts with artists,” Krajny said in an email.

OUAB maintains a larger budget than some of Ohio State’s Big Ten activity board counterparts.

The budget for the 2010-11 school year for a similar group at Wisconsin was $600,000, said Sarah Mathews, vice president of public relations for the Wisconsin Union Directorate.

All events sponsored by the group at Wisconsin are free to students, but student fees do not go toward bringing acts to campus.

AP from 1A

OSU has two regular games left intensity following OSU’s most recent loss to Wisconsin Sunday.

“I know this, when (Sullinger) is playing his best basketball, he’s engaged and into it,” Matta said after the 63-60 defeat by the Badgers.

Matta, who spoke with Sullinger privately after the loss, said Sullinger was “tremendous” in practice Monday.

“He was as high-energy and ready to go as I’ve seen him,” Matta said.

OSU has two regular season games remaining, starting with Wednesday’s matchup at Northwestern. Northwestern, led by senior forward Jon Shurna’s 20.1 points per game, is currently on the bubble to make the NCAA tournament with a 17-11 record. A win against the Buckeyes would most likely secure the Wildcats first bid to the NCAA tourney in school history.

Sullinger said the Buckeyes’ recent losses have been tough on the team, but that he is determined to turn things around.

“I don’t accept losing,” Sullinger said. “It’s not a part of my culture, it’s not a part of my family. Honestly it has been hard, but we have to understand that we still have life … if it’s not winning the Big Ten, now it’s playing for a seed (in the NCAA Tournament). As long as my teammates understand that we still have life and we still have a lot of basketball to play, if we want to play it, we have a chance to do something big.”

If OSU is going to advance deep into the postseason, the Buckeyes will surely need Sullinger, generally regarded as the team’s best player, to overcome the outside distractions that have been plaguing him.

“As long as I cut those things out I think I’ll be back on track to doing what I do best,” Sullinger said.

Tipoff Wednesday against the Wildcats is set for 8:30 p.m. in Evanston, Ill.

Premeditation is rarely the case in shooting situations “Everyone is anti-bullying,” said Blackburn, who has taught anti-bullying classes in Columbus City schools. “I worry that when people jump to the cause of bullying that they jump past a lot of the other things that are part of the dynamic.”

Blackburn said it’s important to understand bullying is not just between a bully and a victim.

“It’s a bullying dynamic, and it sounds like it’s a situation as well where somebody who has been bullied also bullies other people,” Blackburn said.

Wilkinson said she heard Lane wrote a Facebook post prior to the shooting that could have been a warning sign, but said teens will often post things and not always mean it.

“Social media plays a huge part in the roles of adolescents,” Wilkinson said. “But what we can do with that, is use that information to prevent stuff …

We certainly need to use our resources to work on the other end of dealing with the underlying issues that are causing someone to feel so emotionally distraught to do something like this.”

Monitoring social media accounts in high schools could be difficult, Wilkinson said, but more action needs to be taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.

“I think we could build a system that would protect us 100 percent from things like this happening again,” Wilkinson said. “I think that we can certainly do a better job of providing the support, paying attention to the seriousness of depression and looking into warning signs around those issues.”

Part of Wilkinson’s research deals with what people think when they are armed and angry. Any social media posts Lane might or might not have written would indicate premeditation, but Wilkinson said this is rarely the case in such a situation.

“What I’ve found is that there is very little premeditation,” Wilkinson said. “What is more common is for the violence to sort of emerge out of the situation. The premeditation may be that they carry the gun around and they’re armed, and they put themselves in these situations but whether or not they actually use the gun in a conflict situation has a whole lot more to do with who else is there, what’s the nature of the grievance, are they drunk or high, there’s all these other factors that come into play.”

According to multiple reports on Tuesday, Lane did not know the victims and chose them at random.

In court Tuesday, Lane admitted to firing 10 shots at CHS and will be held until charged; prosecutors have until March 1 to charge him, according to

For perspective, total enrollment at Wisconsin’s Madison campus, including graduate and professional students, is 42,595, as of Fall 2010. OSU, by contrast, has a total enrollment of 56,867 at the Columbus campus, as of Autumn Quarter 2011.

At Illinois, the Illini Union Board operates on a budget of $450,000 per year, said Robin Kaler, associate chancellor of public affairs.

About 50-60 percent of that is generated through income-generated activities, while the remainder comes through a student fee, which Kaler said is $3 per student per year.

Illinois has a total enrollment of 42,606 students, as of Fall 2011.

Though OUAB paid artists more than $1 million in 2011, it does not disclose how much it pays each artist individually, citing trade secrets.

OSU president E. Gordon Gee said in his quarterly meeting with The Lantern Feb. 6 that he’s OK with OUAB not disclosing that information.

He said Columbus is a more competitive market for talent booking than cities some other schools are in, such as Michigan State, which discloses how much it pays visiting artists, according to a June 3, 2010, story in The Lantern.

Gee said that for many years, OSU competed with venues such as Nationwide Arena for acts.

“In order to get the very best deal, sometimes you have to keep a secret and keep it secret,” Gee said in a meeting earlier this month. “Otherwise, if those promoters, if they’re going to say, ‘Because we love Ohio State, we’re going to give you a 30 percent cut,’ and then it becomes public, then the university, and particularly OUAB or whomever, has violated the agreement and they also will not get any other concerts because people will not trust their ability to be able to keep that secret.”

Vedder described the policy as “a bread and circus policy,” meaning it’s a policy designed to please people through distraction, and said it’s questionable in terms of Ohio public records laws.

Students have mixed reaction to how OUAB spends its money.

Jordan Horch, a second-year in social work, thinks OUAB is spending the money well.

“I think that they’re doing a great job with the money, like allocating it to the people that they bring in, because I’ve been to a couple speakers here over the past couple years and I love the experiences I get,” Horch said.

Harsh Phuloria, a third-year in biology, meanwhile, thinks the money could be better spent.

“I think they should allocate it differently,” Phuloria said. “They should help other student organizations and maybe give some to charity helping nonprofit organizations in the Columbus area.”

Considering Lane turned himself in after the shooting, Wilkinson said it’s difficult to rationalize such a situation.

“Whether you’re a victim or a perpetrator of crime, your brain and your body gives off chemicals as you’re going through that moment that you can’t actually predict what you’re going to do in that situation,” Wilkinson said.

While the shooting has received international attention, Wilkinson said she does not believe the media surrounding it will spark copy-cat events.

“If you’re suffering from mental illness, and then all of a sudden your famous for a minute and you’re a household name … for some people who really are troubled, that’s an attractive, appealing thing,” Wilkinson said. “But I think that the fact they are suffering so much, it’s not worth it.”

Kevin Jackson, a third-year in strategic communication, said he wishes more could be done to prevent shootings.

“My first reaction was that it’s a shame that after all the past school shootings, someone hasn’t figured out a way to be more aware of kids that may be struggling emotionally,” Jackson said.

The key to prevention is paying more attention, Wilkinson said.

“I think we can do a better job of paying attention to depression, paying attention to just how difficult it can be to be an adolescent when your parents don’t have their lives together,” Wilkinson said.

The issue of concealed carry laws was called into question, but Wilkinson said she doesn’t think different gun laws would have prevented the incident.

“I think that whatever he had in his mind, he was already moving down that,” Wilkinson said. “I don’t think the implication of this is we need more concealed carry. I think that we need more services for mental health issues.”

One of the victims of the shooting, 16-year-old Daniel Parmertor, died Monday morning. Russell King Jr., 17, was pronounced brain dead Monday and later died. Demetrius Hewlin, 16, was the third student victim to die from the shooting, according to MetroHealth Medical Center.

Bianca Mandato, 18, was at school during the shooting and while she did not witness the incident, she said she is good friends with one of the victims who is still in the hospital.

“He (the victim) was just somebody who you never thought that this would happen to,” Mandato said. “It’s heartbreaking … it came out of nowhere ya know, out of the blue. It’s almost like a nightmare I keep trying to wake up from but I can’t.”

My mom sent me off to kindergarten with these words of advice, but it wasn’t until years later that I realized their importance.

One day in grade school, my mom was working the lunch shift and one of my classmates sat alone. My mom called me over and told me I needed to go sit with him.

“But Mom,” I pleaded. “He’s so weird.

I want to sit with my friends.”

The look on my mom’s face told me I didn’t have a choice. I slowly grabbed my lunch tray and slumped into the seat across from my “weird” classmate, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible so no one else in my class would associate me with him.

I knew everyone in my class by name, but I had never had a conversation with this particular boy. He looked shocked that I decided to sit with him, but he also looked grateful to have someone to talk to. We struck up a conversation, and I learned that my “weird” classmate was in fact very kind and smart, that he loved sports and that he had a very strong faith. We became friends at lunch that day and I finally realized what my mom had meant all those years before.

Unfortunately, I was one of the only students who really ever got to know this particular classmate, and sadly, I only did so because I was forced to. A handful of other students took the time to get to know him, some even did so of their own

accord. But the majority of my classmates spent their time making fun of him, hiding his books, putting the lock on his locker backwards, throwing pencils at him. I hope even if my mom hadn’t forced me to sit with him, that I wouldn’t have joined them, but peer pressure is a funny thing, so I will never be able to say for certain that I wouldn’t have joined in on the bullying. And even if I wasn’t the one throwing things at my classmate, I can’t say for certain that I would have spoken up to stop it. All of this went on in front of teachers who stayed silent, and all of this at a Catholic school that preached acceptance, respect and love.

It continued for years, until one day, the class “loser” reached his breaking point. The kind, smart boy that I knew snapped and threatened to bring a gun to school. He was suspended from school. And though he never followed through on his threat, thank goodness, he went from being a “loser” to being a psycho, a villain, a monster. And if my mom hadn’t forced me to “be aware,” that’s the only memory I would have of this boy — him as a monster. In reality, he was just lonely and lost. He just wanted the pain to stop.

Monday morning, tragedy struck at Chardon High School in Chardon, Ohio, when a shooting left three students dead and two other students injured. The alleged shooter, 17-year-old Thomas Lane, opened fire in the school cafeteria before a teacher chased him out of the school.

Daniel Parmertor, 16, died several hours after the shooting, according to multiple reports. Russell King Jr., 17, died Monday night and Demetrius Hewlin, a junior whose age has not been released, died Tuesday morning. The two injured students remain hospitalized, according to reports.

The heartbreaking story made international news. My heart hurts for the victims and their families, for the community of Chardon. They don’t deserve the pain that comes with Monday’s tragedy. Lane’s actions were in no way excusable or just. He killed three people, destroyed the lives of countless others, stole people’s innocence and forever changed an entire community.

He has to face the consequences and

take responsibility for his actions. The decision to bring a gun to school and shoot people was Lane’s choice and no one else’s.

But CHS was not the first school to experience such tragedy and most likely will not be the last. And in many cases, the best method of prevention isn’t security guards or metal detectors. It’s as simple as being aware — being kind, smiling at someone, striking up a conversation with the “weird guy,” making a seemingly small or insignificant gesture to acknowledge the people around you.

Many early reports have mentioned Lane’s troubled past, including problems at home. Some students have said he was bullied and was seen as an outcast.

To be sure, other students say Lane had friends and was not bullied by his peers.

But it seems that each day, another teenager kills him or herself after being bullied. It has forced me to ask myself how people reach the point that they

are so lost, lonely and broken that killing themselves or other people seems to be the only solution? And what can be done to prevent these tragedies in the future?

We’re all guilty of it — it’s a pretty safe bet that everyone, at some point in their lives, myself included, has said something mean about someone, has judged someone, has excluded someone.

Or maybe you just ignored it all, remaining silent, being so wrapped up in your own day-to-day problems that you failed to make yourself aware of the people around you. I’m guilty of that too.

But while I’m busy studying for a big exam or picking out a dress for formal, what would happen if I could find two minutes to smile at someone in class?

Could that smile change a life? What if I simply asked a stranger, “How are you?” or said, “Thank you,” to someone who held a door? Could that simple kind gesture help someone feel not so

lonely? Or what if one student decided to defend a classmate when pencils went flying across the room at him? Could the refusal to be a bystander prevent tragedy?

Maybe tragedies like the one in Chardon, Ohio, could be prevented if we would all take the time to look at how our actions impact others, for better or worse. Perhaps the best way to honor Monday’s victims is to reach out to someone who is struggling, to be kind to friends, acquaintances and strangers, to simply be aware of the people around you rather than looking through people like they’re invisible. Maybe you’ll change a life, or maybe that stranger will change yours. Who knows? Maybe if we all took the time to look out for each other, to be aware, to include someone even when that’s not the popular thing to do, just maybe tragedies like Monday’s could be prevented in the future.

New Google privacy policy an improvement

JAMES GARCIA garcia.299@osu.edu

So when Gizmodo, tech blogs and the like began freaking out about the company compromising our privacy, I was wondering what the hell was wrong with everyone.

So when you search on YouTube for

Nutrition information should be easy to find LANTERN Columnist

the latest music video by The Strokes or an inane video involving a damn cat, Google will remember it and your results, ads and suggestions on other G-services will be more apt to produce Strokes-y and dumb-cat results.

Imagine how much more useful it will be when all services are sharing information across its services. It makes it more user-friendly and more tailored to your personal specifications.

Google’s policy states it only intends to share personal information within its own services — it will not be selling you to third parties. “And we’ll never sell your personal information or share it without your permission,” the new policy overview states.

“Until now, your Google Web History (your Google searches and sites visited) was cordoned off from Google’s other products,” said one blog post on the tech blog, Gizmodo. Gizmodo, which

is spearheading the Google witch hunt, went on to say, “This protection was especially important because search data can reveal particularly sensitive information about you, including facts about your location, interests, age, sexual orientation, religion, health concerns and more.”

Uh, derp! Being pissed about this is like getting mad your Facebook profile information has the same privacy policy as, and shares its information with, the wall posting service. It’s ridiculous.

And those who accuse Google of sharing the information it gathers from us in an inappropriate fashion should consider this: Facebook generates ads from third-parties that very obviously take information from your posts and profile.

People need to stop complaining about privacy policies when most of these same people are sharing their most

intimate details with Mr. Zuckerberg. And why is Google’s policy taking precedence over the face that Facebook information is never truly deleted. It remains on Facebook’s servers permanently.

Yep, you read that right. That picture of you doing a keg stand and that one with the nip-slip you thought you deleted are still accessible to God-knows-who.

Why do you care if Google keeps track of you looking up the definition of ‘conglomerate?’ Is it because you’re watching naughty things? If so, Google Chrome has this handy feature called ‘Incognito Window’ that won’t be tracked and doesn’t add anything to your history or cookies.

Google is my master. The only thing Google could do to be better is put a word count on Gdocs, because I have no idea if I’ve met my word requirement yet.

Oh. Nevermind. Found it. Google is perfect.

Student involvement makes OSU experience worthwhile, has benefits for students’ futures While making my way through the Winter Involvement Fair in January with a group of friends who were anxious to become a part of a club this quarter, I could not help but wonder why a student at a university clearly abundant with opportunity would choose not to get involved.

It is without question that academics should be a student’s top priority, as that is the main reason for furthering one’s education.

A smaller, private college, however, is certainly just as sufficient when it involves obtaining a degree.

But being a student at Ohio State is about more than just a GPA; it is about taking advantage of the wide range of opportunities this university has to offer.

OSU is said to have more than 500 different student organizations, with everything from Undergraduate Student Government to the Rubik’s Cube Club.

And if there still isn’t a group that caters to one’s interest, students have the ability to create their own group.

Yes, it is understandable that not everyone has a large amount

of free time on their hands, but many clubs only meet for an hour or two each week. Some even meet less frequently than that. There is always room for an organization to fit into a busy schedule, unless that time is already occupied by a sport or part-time job.

Joining an organization is the best way to meet students with similar interests. It allows for networking and shows that you are taking pride in your school.

At my freshman orientation and for much of the first quarter, the importance of involvement was drilled into our heads. We couldn’t get away from it.

I was heavily involved throughout my years in high school and knew the day I was accepted into OSU that I wanted to continue that pattern.

I would recommend that anyone who would like to join an organization but doesn’t know where to start attend an involvement fair, held at the beginning of each quarter.

I will admit that between the swarm of people and the large number of booths at the 2011 Autumn Involvement Fair, I was a

bit overwhelmed. However, I was able to use my hobbies and interests as a starting place for what organizations to further explore.

It was that event that helped give me some direction, along with the various flyers posted around campus about groups open to new members. In little time, I found a number of groups to join, including the Residence Halls Advisory Council, my hall council, OSU “Her Campus” online magazine and the Society of Professional Journalists. I also entered OSU as part of the Media, Marketing and Communication Scholars Program, for

As someone trying to count calories, it gets tedious trying to look up the calories for every food you eat, which is why nutritional information should be included on every food item you buy. For example, bananas have no label telling you how many calories are in a serving. When you look it up online, you get different answers from different sites.

My diet requires me to count calories, and it is frustrating not STEPHANIE MARTIN knowing the exact number I’m martin.2395@osu.edu consuming. Maybe if every item we ate included its nutritional information, it would encourage people to eat healthier. Some argue if someone is dedicated to losing weight and counting calories, they will do it no matter how hard it is.

But why make it harder than it needs to be?

When you go out to a sit-down restaurant and you want to order something off of the menu, you either have to search online for nutritional information or ask the waiter if they have a copy of it. It can get very annoying going online for every little thing you want to eat. With the convenience of having the nutritional facts at the end of the menu, it would save the waiter time and it would save you from having to awkwardly ask for the information.

There really is no legitimate reason why the manufacturers or restaurants shouldn’t provide this information in an easily-accessible format. Maybe they are trying to hide how fattening their food is. Or perhaps those who are not on diets don’t want to see what they are eating because it would make them feel bad about themselves. But if this is the case, having the nutritional information right in front of that person’s face might encourage them to stop making poor food choices and start eating healthy.

Google’s new privacy policy will go into effect Thursday and many are asking how the controversial policy will actually affect Google users. Well, I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty psyched about it.

My entire life runs on Google and personally, I will follow them until the world ends. Gmail, Google Calender, Google Music, YouTube, Google Navigator, Google Documents (which is actually how I wrote this column), Google+ and on and on.

So here’s the deal: the new privacy settings are going to do nothing but make the Google experience more personalized, streamlined and just more Google-y in general. It’s combining all of the services under a single policy and passing information between all of them — something I actually assumed Google already did. It’s weird this is just happening.

which I decided to serve on the Freshman Executive Board as well.

Since I have immersed myself in a variety of clubs, I understand why involvement is even more valuable than it was in high school.

Although it has been said hundreds of times, being a member of organizations truly makes this huge university feel a whole lot smaller. I rarely ever find myself walking through campus without seeing at least one friendly, familiar face along the way.

That is what develops OSU into its own community.

Becoming involved is not just about staying busy or about having a way to improve your resume. It is what makes the college experience for a Buckeye truly worthwhile.

Author dishes the dos and don’ts of dating at OSU

Caitlyn Wasmundt Lantern reporter wasmundt.1@osu.edu Forget the old childhood rhyme, “first comes love, then comes marriage.” For Demetria Lucas, it’s first comes happiness by living the best life possible then comes everything else, if you’re ready for it.

Lucas, author of the dating-advice book “A Belle in Brooklyn,” spoke to almost 75 people at the Ohio Union Monday. The Ohio Union Activities Board and Society of Sisters sponsored the event.

Lucas, a full-time author and life coach since giving up her position as relationship editor at “Essence Magazine,” gave her dos and don’ts for relationships.

Do communicate Lucas repeatedly made communication a point in her advice on how to deal with one’s partner, how to deal with family and friends or even how to be a better boyfriend.

One of the few males in the audience received applause when he asked Lucas how he could be a better boyfriend. Her advice to him was similar to everyone else’s: communicate and don’t have an ego.

Portia Williams, a third-year in computer and information science, said she took a lot from the communication emphasis. “(Communication is) lacking in relationships,” Williams said.

Dating advice author Demetria Lucas spoke at the Ohio Union’s US Bank Conference Theatre Feb. 27.

Don’t conform “Don’t force yourself into something you don’t believe in,” Lucas said.

This response addressed a number of questions audience members asked Lucas, whether it was about having kids or just having sex before marriage.

Other questions Lucas received in her open forum ranged from her stance on partners living together, which Lucas advised not to do until a couple is at least engaged, to how to have a career similar to her own.

Do live life to the fullest “Having adventures … and learning something (from them),” Lucas said is her best definition of having the best single life possible.

Darvonna Hayes, a second-year in logistics management, said she enjoyed the advice Lucas gave. Hayes felt it was perfectly geared toward college students.

Hayes said she loved Lucas’ advice about living for oneself and took a lot away from the event.

“Enjoy life, do not worry about relationships — we are living for ourselves, and have fun in life,” Hayes said.

Don’t give cheaters, liars, abusers more chances than they deserve “No second chances,” Lucas said. “It’s a character issue.”

This was related to audience members and pop culture. Lucas referenced pop artists Rihanna and Chris Brown and their tumultuous past as displayed in the media.

“Rihanna is making the worst decision of her life, not only professionally,” if she gets back together with Brown, Lucas said. “It sends a horrible message.”

Betty Cowans, a third-year in human development and family sciences and vice president of internal affairs of the SOS, said she felt it was a blessing to have Lucas visit Ohio State.

Cowans said her favorite advice was “living your best single life, focusing on myself as a woman and individual … experiencing and learning.”

Bluegrass quartet hopes to be natural fit in Columbus show Bianca Briggs Lantern reporter briggs.243@osu.edu Guitar picking and fishing are two things that go hand-in-hand for Larry Keel and Natural Bridge.

“Not pickin’ beans or berries — we’re talking about pickin’ music,” said Larry Keel, the band’s frontman, in an email to The Lantern.

The alternative bluegrass band is scheduled to take the stage at 9 p.m. Friday at Woodlands Tavern.

The quartet is made of up mandolin player Mark Schimick, banjo picker Will Lee, and Keel’s wife and bassist, Jenny, all of whom participate in vocals.

Larry Keel said the band’s “hybrid style” makes its music different.

“We just give it our spirit, give it our all — and take our hybrid style, really pushing the boundaries of our technical abilities — to create an enjoyable soundscape,” Larry Keel said in the email.

Other bluegrass, country and jazz musicians including Bill Monroe, Darol Anger, Vassar Clements and Sam Bush influence the group’s style, Larry Keel’s in particular.

“I just try to be an ever-evolving musical force that stands in ongoing defiance to all genre expectations,” Larry Keel said in the email. “Sure it’s acoustic — but don’t bother trying to pigeonhole our music. My mission is to let my technical skill, honest emotion and fearlessness connect my playing and singing to the audiences we play for.”

Nature has been a large musical influence on Larry Keel, he said. Other than music, one of his main interests is fishing.

“I love to fish! I try to get on the lake or river or ocean to drop my line in the water any chance I can get,” Larry Keel said.

Trout & Tunes, a weekend camping retreat in West Virginia featuring a performance the band, as well as many outdoor activities, is one way the band is able to combine music and the its love for the outdoors.

“We find that there’s a common thread that brings together a wonderful network of like-minded folks all across the world, who seek out the deep

The retreat provides a pleasant escape, he said.

“It’s a mystical connection, one that brings a lot of joy and satisfaction to a world overwhelmed with so much artificiality and staleness,” he said in the email. “Seems like we’d all like to connect more to people, places, sights, sounds and sensations that make you feel fired up!”

Ian Cullison, a fourth-year in environmental policy and management, said in an email that Larry Keel and Natural Bridge has a “bluesy feel.”

Because the energy of bands similar to Larry

Keel and Natural Bridge translates best in person, Cullison said he would be interested in seeing the band live.

“This band definitely has a lot of energy and good instrumental prowess,” Cullison said. “The lead singer has a very satisfactory grittiness to his voice that fits well with the type of music they play.”

Kristin Canady, a third-year in human development and family science, listened to some of Larry Keel and Natural Bridge’s tracks and said she doesn’t normally listen to music in similar styling.

“It’s not my type of music, but I definitely think it’s good,” Canady said.

@LanternAE

Kyle hendrickson For The Lantern hendrickson.1087@osu.edu I fully acknowledge that hip-hop is not on the level it was in its glory years of the mid-’90s.

That doesn’t mean, however, that there isn’t good hip-hop out there right now. It’s just tougher to find when the radio is filled with the flashy, no-substance music that sells records these days (I’m looking at you, Nicki Minaj).

This is where hip-hop publications such as “XXL” can have an impact. “XXL’s” annual “Freshman Class” list and cover is one of the most important promotions an up-and-coming rapper can receive.

Lists like these help make people aware of the next generation of rappers, who you should start listening to now before they make it big in a few years’ time. This list should be what you show your friends when they ask who the top young rappers in

the game are right now. And with an alumni group that includes Lupe Fiasco, Kid Cudi, Big Sean, Wiz Khalifa, J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar, “XXL” has mostly fulfilled that goal.

With today’s release of its 2012 Freshman Class, it is quite evident that XXL failed in that duty this time around. Quite frankly, too many members of this group lack the lyricism, lyrical content, flow and mass appeal to be considered rap’s next stars.

Nowhere to be found on the list are A$AP Rocky, Schoolboy Q, Childish Gambino (also seen on NBC’s “Community”), Jon Connor or Maybach Music Group-signee Stalley.

Instead, we get the recycled sound of Roscoe Dash and Iggy Azalea with her classic song “Pu$$y.”

I respect the effort to have a girl on the cover, but let’s make sure their ability actually warrants it. Even with that, it’s not that those that made the cut don’t have some talent and potential.

Kid Ink’s sound is something I can imagine taking the path of top-seller Tyga. Don Trip’s music has real meaning to it and the all-out style of Hopsin has some appeal. This list does have some redeemable qualities. It’s just that a better list could have been made from the group that was left off.

“XXL” missed a chance to make people aware of the next generation in rap. Hip-hop is not dead, it’s just tougher to find good hip-hop. It was not made any easier today.

CD Reviews Cudi’s early magic lost ‘Breakfast’ serves in space on ‘WZRD’ bang for your buck aleX antonetz Arts editor antonetz.3@osu.edu Kid Cudi was once promising.

His debut album, “Man on the Moon: The End of Day,” was an eclectic, moody mix of hip-hop and psychedelia. Since, however, Cudi has seemingly been lost in space, falling flat on both of his subsequent follow-ups, including his latest, the debut album from his new experimental alt-rock act, WZRD. The self-titled album, crafted in effort with fellow WZRD member Dot Da Genius, is a spacey, experimental rock album without any real trace of hip-hop. At best, it’s a sonically interesting hybrid of deep electronica and ‘70s rock. At worst, it’s an awkward experiment that never quite hits its marks.

The album starts off promising with a resonating, pulsating intro. “WZRD” fails to keep up the momentum, however, as Cudi’s lyricism doesn’t keep pace with the album’s production value, which deserves some credit for at least being aurally interesting.

Cudi has always been a master at hooks — just ask Kanye West. His hooks are on point here, including more up-beat “High Off Life” and “Teleport 2 Me, Jamie.”

The album has its high points, such as their cover of “Where Did You Sleep Last Night?” with some bluegrass-like lyrics juxtaposed

“Wzrd” WZRD

D+

against a twangy guitar and pulsating bass line. Cudi was on to something, but sadly, his concepts are never quite a consistent success throughout the album.

“WZRD” essentially takes everything that was wrong with “Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager” and blows it up ten-fold. Tracks such as “Upper Room” and “Dr. Pill” are awkward catharses of rock and trance, which was the same issue with “Moon II.” While Cudi deserves some credit for attempting to break the mold, his execution left a lot to be desired.

“WZRD” becomes a tiresome listen — none of the tracks differ all that much sonically. It is a glorified concept album that never finds its legs — a problem from which Cudi himself seems to be suffering as an artist. If he can never relive the magic of his first album, he might be better off spending the rest of his career as West’s hook guy.

matt loVett Lantern reporter lovett.45@osu.edu Alternative hip-hop duo Chiddy Bang gives homage to the most important meal of the day. And really, “Breakfast” is hardly an arbitrary album title.

The album’s songs are largely upbeat and exceptionally catchy — great for starting your day in a positive mindset.

The album opens up with “Breakfast,” a nice means of shaking off your sleepiness. The album’s title track, which is far more commanding than much of the songs that follow it — quite “up and at ‘em.”

“Breakfast,” the song, has the rapper sort of bragging about who he is and what he’s done, a la many other rappers.

Chiddy Bang has never been a band praised particularly for astounding or innovative lyricism. The figurative language at work throughout “Breakfast” is not embellished with the devices other rappers seek. The themes encapsulated in “Breakfast,” such as love, heartbreak and getting high are expressed simply. I find that this simple, sing-song flow of Chiddy’s is a descriptor for Chiddy Bang as a duo — the emphasis that Chiddy Bang is making songs that are approachable and/

or capable of getting a party started.

“Handclaps & Guitars” is exactly as it sounds: a grooving guitar sample over some hand claps, perfect for the said Chiddy Bang party. It’s followed with yet another catchy “Mind Your Manners” with an accented, acoustic guitar strum to be taken over by blaring synthesizer. “Does She Love Me” shatters Chiddy Bang’s catchy streak. Even though they differ in subject matter, “Run It Back” and “Out 2 Space” are mellower tunes, gain showcasing Chiddy Bang’s juxtaposition between being bright and deep.

“Breakfast” is best absorbed from a step back. The album does not seem impressive when approaching it from a lyrically-intense mindset.

Rather, the album is good for what it is: a slew of addicting, poppy hip-hop songs, perfect for a party.

Estelle gives all of herself on 3rd album matt loVett Lantern reporter lovett.45@osu.edu For a pop record, “All of Me,” the latest release from British singer-songwriter Estelle, is surprisingly reflective. Throughout tunes about being in love, being out of love, just living and all things of the like, there are several miniature dialogue breaks in the album that have interviews from people about those very things. They are surely unexpected, but rather than breaking the album’s narrative they add to it, supplying a sense of true context to these songs, as if the songs themselves actually pulled from reality.

Before the relationship commentary, Estelle opens up her new album with “The Life,” bursting with attitude and a powerful sense of confidence backing each note and word coming from the singer. The Chris Brown and Trey Songzfeatured “International (Serious)” follows in much of the same manner.

After the opening explosion, the album settles and turns into this, as mentioned, backand-forth between Estelle and various interviewees, the subject matter pertaining to romance and maintaining relationships.

“You And I” contains snippets of people talking about the

“all of me” Estelle

B+

importance of working on a relationship daily and undertaking new challenges every day.

It is followed with the endearing “Love the Way We Used To,” which embodies those very same concepts presented in the previous interview track — Estelle sings that “times change and I still want you” and it’s “so good to find love the way we used to.”

This pattern of interview-song keeps up for the bulk of the album.

“All of Me” closes as loudly as it opens. Estelle is very assured as to what she’s singing. “Speak Ya Mind,” and the album’s closer, the Janelle Monae-featured “Do My Thing,” are fast-paced tunes that inflect confidence. It makes all the anxiety and weariness of the previous love-stained tracks dissipate. “All of Me” is truly an encouraging record that merely asks questions about our lives and how we spend them with other people.

OSU sophomore forward Alex Lippincott corrals the puck during an Oct. 27, 2011, game against Alaska. OSU tied Alaska, 2-2, before winning a shootout, 2-1.

It’s been an icy fall from grace for the Ohio State men’s ice hockey team.

OSU was in first place in the CCHA Jan. 2 with a 14-4-1 record, ranked No. 2 in the country.

Fast forward to today and the Buckeyes are 15-13-5, unranked and the No. 9 seed in the upcoming CCHA conference tournament.

What caused OSU to go from a conference-andnational title contender at the season’s midpoint to a team near the bottom of the CCHA standings likely to miss out on the NCAA Tournament in a span of less than two months?

“For whatever reason, it hasn’t bounced our way,” said OSU coach Mark Osiecki. “We’ve got to deal with the hand we’re dealt and it’s going to make us stronger.”

While OSU has had some unlucky bounces during its 1-9-4 skid to end the regular season, including multiple shots against the post and some untimely deflections, the Buckeyes’ execution on the ice in the second half of the year pales in comparison to the team’s production during the season’s first three months.

Throughout the season, the Buckeyes have said their mentality is to “take the first punch” in their games. Of the 15 games OSU won before Jan. 1, they held a lead at the end of the first period in eight, and only trailed after twenty minutes in two.

The same cannot be said for the games OSU has played after the start of this calendar year. The Buckeyes have gotten outscored, 17-9, in the first stanza of the 14 games played after Jan. 1, leading after twenty minutes in only three of the 14 games.

“It’s not fun to play from behind. We always talk about having a first-punch mentality, trying to get off to a good start, and it’s something we have to work on,” said junior defenseman Devon Krogh.

Along with OSU’s first-period offensive woes, its defense has been suspect as the regular season has come to a close as well.

The Buckeyes allowed one goal or fewer in eight games before January, including three shutouts.

Of the 14 games played since OSU’s hot start,

only twice have the Buckeyes allowed one goal, with no shutouts.

“We haven’t done a good job overall (on defense), but I’ll take responsibility as a captain for that,” said OSU senior defenseman and co-captain Sean Duddy.

One of the main reasons the Buckeyes finished in ninth place in the conference was their failure to win shootouts. One point is awarded to the winner of a shootout in CCHA games, and four of OSU’s contests during the second half resulted in one, with the Buckeyes losing all four. OSU finished the year with 39 conference points. If it had won all four shootouts, it could have finished in sixth place.

OSU senior forward Cory Schneider said the Buckeyes have been disappointed with their inability to get extra points.

“Those are unfortunate. We need to find a way to bear down and finish those shootouts,” he said.

Another reason why OSU struggled mightily down the stretch could be its youth.

The Buckeyes have 19 freshman and sophomores on their roster with many first-year players being relied on to produce. The Buckeyes’ top line is made up of three freshmen forwards — Ryan Dzingel, Tanner Fritz and Max McCormick. The team’s leaders in goals scored and shots blocked are both sophomores — forward Chris Crane and defenseman Curtis Gedig.

After a 3-2 loss to Michigan State Feb. 4, Osiecki mentioned how much experience matters when playing in the CCHA. “We had 10 freshmen in the lineup (on Feb. 4), and that was one of the differences in the game. It helps having (Michigan State’s) kind of experience going through league play.”

While OSU did not end the regular season the way it wanted, Osiecki remains optimistic. The Buckeyes, tied for 18th in the PairWise rankings, which helps select and seed schools for the 16-team NCAA Tournament, still have a chance to play for a national championship if they are successful in the CCHA tournament. “(The playoffs are) a new season — wipe the slate clean,” Osiecki said.

Ohio State women’s gymnastics coach Carey Fagan stopped short of calling this Friday’s contest against Kent State revenge.

But, neither she nor her team has forgotten about a one-tenthpoint loss to the Golden Flashes in last year’s regional qualifier that knocked them out of the NCAA Championships.

“That stung, and I know it’s been on the minds of the girls for almost a whole year,” Fagan said.

Almost a year later, a similar feeling still resonates with the team.

The No. 14-ranked Buckeyes, though, have harvested that disappointment into this season’s rallying cry: “Our honor defend to the last tenth.”

And it has been the driving force behind a year that Fagan and her team have condensed into a single word — consistent.

“I think one of the best things we’ve done is we’ve been really consistent — we haven’t had to count a fall in several meets,” she said. “For us, all our scores have been right in that low 196, high 195 range.”

Sophomore Sarah Miller echoed her coach’s sentiments.

“I think that, overall, we’ve been really consistent throughout our entire season,” said Miller, who earned Big Ten Gymnast of the Week honors this week. “Generally, all of our scores have pretty much reflected our season.”

OSU, which hasn’t posted a score lower than 195.175 this year, set a school record for their 197.625 team score against Denver Feb. 18.

Fagan said she thinks her team’s consistent and sometimes dominating performance is a combination of senior leadership and the strong sophomore class that includes Miller.

“I think (the seniors are) coming upon the end of their gymnastics career, and I think they’re really doing a good job kind of motivating some of the younger kids,” she said.

Fagan said her seniors’ lead-byexample approach has been different compared to past seasons.

“I think the best leadership comes from when they’re performing well and they have the confidence,” she said. “It’s harder if you’re not doing well to kind of step up and be like, ‘Come on guys,’ if you’re not taking care of your own business.”

Defending national champs still seek consistency after 17 matches Lisa Barefield Lantern reporter barefield.2@osu.edu The Ohio State men’s volleyball team might be the defending national champions, but captains and coaches said they are grappling with consistency 17 matches into the 2011-12 season.

The No. 9-ranked Buckeyes split the weekend’s two conference matches on the road at Lewis and Loyola University Chicago, adding a victory against the Loyola Ramblers to improve their record to 12-5 on the season.

“We did well after we struggled with a few things against Lewis on Thursday,” redshirt freshman setter Peter Heinen said. “We watched film and we worked on it and we did a good job fixing what we needed to fix.”

Senior opposite Shawn Sangrey and senior outside hitter Mik Berzins tallied a combined 27 kills Saturday to lead the team offensively at Loyola.

Defensively, Heinen delivered 37 assists, while redshirt junior middle blocker John Tholen posted a matchhigh eight blocks.

OSU trailed the Ramblers in the first set until the score tied at seven. A Tholen block and a Berzins kill started to build a lead that Loyola-Chicago could not recover from, and the Buckeyes took the set 25-18.

They dominated the second set, 25-9, after opening on a five-point drive.

Set three began much like the first.

When the score tied again at seven, another five-point run put OSU ahead.

Berzins posted two more kills and

Tholen added a final block to close the set and match 25-19.

The Buckeyes kept a manageable amount of errors at 17, the least amount of errors committed by the team in any match this season.

Sangrey said that after Thursday’s 3-1 loss at No. 7-ranked Lewis, the team was more “poised” heading into Chicago. “(Lewis) had a blackout going for the fans so they were pretty pumped up for us,” Sangrey said. “Unfortunately we didn’t complete what we wanted to, but Saturday night at Loyola, that was very good.”

A rowdy Flyer crowd might have shaken the Buckeyes’ composure. The compilation of 39 errors was a major detriment to OSU’s performance.

A strong first set gave the Buckeyes an early advantage, 25-15.

After that, Lewis’ redshirt junior outside hitter Jay Petty became an offensive force to reckon with. Petty posted a match-high 23 kills, tallying almost as many as Sangrey and Berzins combined.

“We didn’t do a good job of defending Jay Petty,” said coach Pete Hanson. “We talked about him and talked about him, but we couldn’t get guys in position to slow him down.”

The second set tied at 14 on a service ace from senior outside hitter Anthony Hock. The Flyers pulled ahead, but OSU was able to keep it close until Petty delivered back-toback kills to take a five-point lead late in the set.

Lewis held onto the lead to take set two, 25-21.

The Flyers the held their service errors down to two in the final two sets.

BrittanY Schock / Asst. photo editor

OSU junior middle blocker Grayson Overman goes up for a hit during a match against Penn State Jan. 14. OSU lost, 3-0.

“We made too many bad service errors against Lewis and that allowed them to build some momentum,” Hanson said.

The third and fourth sets both began with a 4-1 lead against OSU and ended with a 25-18 victory in favor of the home team.

Lewis handed OSU its first Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association loss of the season, making them 3-1 in conference play.

The Flyers were also the only MIVA team to defeat the Buckeyes in their national championship season last year.

“We started so strong against Lewis and everything was going well for us,” Heinen said. “Then our competition level lowered and we got

a little comfortable with where we were.”

Although the Buckeyes are preparing to face two non-conference teams, Hanson said the pressure is still on to stay consistent by minimizing their errors.

“We want to keep improving,” Hanson said. “We want to use this last weekend as a building block and say, ‘OK, we didn’t do some things well on Thursday. We can improve upon them.’”

OSU continues its time on the road with Saint Francis (8-8) in Loretto, Pa., Friday and No. 5-ranked Penn State (12-1) Saturday. Both matches are set to begin at 7 p.m.

WE’RE INVESTING IN THE BUCKEYE NATION. TM

PROUD TO BE THE OFFICIAL CONSUMER BANK OF THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY. We’ve been serving the Ohio State community since the University was founded in 1870. And now, 142 years later, we’re officially becoming Buckeyes. So what does it mean to be OSU’s official consumer bank? For starters, we’re giving the school $25 million for scholarships and other university investments. We’re also lending $100 million to businesses in and around the University District.

Best of all, when you do business with us, a portion of the revenue goes back to Ohio State.

We’re proud of our Buckeye ties, and we can’t wait for our next couple of centuries together.
