Four cases of vandalism on and near OSU’s campus has prompted a 2nd hate crime alert email this month to be sent from university. police The words ‘Long Live Zimmerman’ were written on Hale Hall April 5 (left). Swastikas and the ‘N-word’ were written on a mural of President Barack Obama April 6 (middle). The ‘N-word’ was written on a dumpster April 16.

Two acts of vandalism Ohio State Police labeled hate crimes were discovered Monday — one in a university dorm and the other across from the Ohio Union.

The first incident involved racial and religious slurs, written on a door in Baker Hall East. The word “n-----s” and a swastika were written with permanent marker on a message board hanging on a dorm room door, said OSU Deputy Police Chief Richard Morman. Two females, one Caucasian and one African-American, live in said room, Morman said.

The police report for the incident listed it as an “anti-Black” hate crime and the motive as “menace.”

The second occurred off-campus, when a dumpster across from the Ohio Union was covered in red spray paint that read, “hang n-----s.” The dumpster is located behind Formaggio Pizza, at 20 E. 13th Ave. Dilnavaz Cama, a department manager from OSU neighborhood services and collaboration, was dispatched to cover up the spray paint on the dumpster until it could be permanently removed.

Cama said the dumpster is property of Republic Services, Inc., and she was told someone would be sent out to permanently remove the vandalism.

Republic Services, Inc., had no immediate contact as of Monday afternoon. Sam Michael,

Katelyn Pruchnicki Lantern reporter pruchnicki.5@osu.edu After confirmed incidents of hazing and a “long laundry lists of things,” the Theta Delta Chapter of the Beta Theta Pi Fraternity at Ohio State has been closed and can’t return to campus before January 2014.

The national headquarters of Beta Theta Pi announced in a letter on April 15 that the Theta Delta Chapter of the fraternity, founded in Columbus in 1885, “sustained a culture that was incongruent with university and Beta Theta Pi values,” while violating conduct standards and policies of OSU and Beta Theta Pi as a general organization.

According to the letter, the national level of Beta Theta Pi and OSU believe closure is the appropriate action after a recent hazing allegation, a lack of transparency during the subsequent investigation and an “on-again, off-again cycle of unacceptable behavior.”

Martin Cobb, director of communications at the administrative offices of Beta Theta Pi, said the investigation was sparked by a hazing allegation, but the closure was based upon “larger cultural issues” with the OSU chapter.

“It’s not worth going into all the details at the end of the day. We’re standing by our values and the expectations the

university has of us,” Cobb said. “We have not had the type of chapter that Beta should have on the campus.”

In a letter to fraternity members, parents and friends of the fraternity, David Schmidt, General Secretary of Beta Theta Pi, said a pattern of unacceptable behavior led to the closure of the chapter.

“As a result of the chapter’s actions spanning a period of several years, including a pattern of unacceptable behavior and a lack of transparency and forthrightness during the investigation process,” Schmidt said in the letter, “the Fraternity’s Board of Trustees concluded that … closure of the (chapter) was the appropriate course of action.”

Dave Isaacs, Student Life communications manager, said OSU is in agreement with Beta Theta Pi nationals in that the violations made by members of the Theta Delta Chapter warrant closure of the organization.

“Both (the) Beta Theta Pi General Fraternity and Ohio State realize that the student code of conduct was violated,” Isaacs said. “This final incident confirmed

by Beta Theta Pi General Fraternity did involve hazing.”

Clark Siddle, president of the OSU Interfraternity Council, said the exact reasons for the chapter’s closure remain unidentified, but that more than one violation contributed to the final decision.

manager of Formaggio Pizza, said he did not know anything about the vandalism on the dumpster outside of his restaurant.

University Police sent out a public safety email Monday afternoon to alert OSU community members to take precautions and actions to increase safety and to aid in the prevention of similar crimes.

In an official statement to The Lantern, Javaune Adams-Gaston, vice president of Student Life, said she is horrified by the incidents.

“I am appalled by these continued acts of hate.

We are working with University Police, acting swiftly, diligently investigating, and will take the appropriate action,” Adams-Gaston said in the statement.

Student-athletes with a book scholarship are permitted to sell back their books to Barnes & Noble after the quarter — books they received for free.

Many Ohio State students hope to make a small portion of what they spent when selling books back at the end of a quarter. However some student-athletes can make a profit during textbook sellback time.

Up until last year, student-athletes received free textbooks as a part of their scholarship that they returned at the end of every quarter. Due to a change in Big Ten ruling, OSU student-athletes are allowed to sell back books — ones they receive for free with book scholarships — to bookstores for money.

The Big Ten’s old rule said students were allowed the use of free books and nothing more.

Kerry Kenny, assistant director of compliance at the Big Ten, said the old rule prohibited student-athletes from selling the books back.

“We used to have a rule that said you could only provide the use of the book to a student-athlete … for a course you were enrolled in,” Kenny said. “You were only provided with the use of the book.”

The change came about in Fall Quarter.

The Big Ten decided to make this change to better correspond with rules held by the NCAA. “The NCAA rules that students can keep the textbook or they can sell that book back and obtain the actual value for that book,” Kenny said.

Kenny also said the modification made sense because of the way the textbook industry is changing. Some things, like online books and binder-ring books, cannot be returned, which made it difficult to keep track of.

While the Big Ten sees the change as a better match with NCAA rules, OSU compliance said it was changed because of administrative issues.

Kyle Strickland and Nick Parker (left), Niraj Antani and Nikki Brown (middle), and Travis Skaggs and Danielle Meyer (right) all competed, but lost in the USG Presidential Election.

Candidates reflect on election ILIANA CORFIAS, ANDREW KELLER AND ROSE ZHOU Lantern reporter corfias.3@osu.edu, keller.600@osu.edu and zhou.371@osu.edu While Taylor Stepp, a second-year in Russian and public affairs, and Kevin Arndt, a third-year in political science and public affairs, were elected president and vice president of Undergraduate Student Government, the other three candidate duos are still looking to make a difference on Ohio State’s campus.

All four candidate duos were counting down the minutes till results were posted Sunday afternoon.

“It was painful,” said Kyle Strickland, a thirdyear in political science, about the loss. “The initial reaction was painful because it was a long, hardfought campaign.”

But Strickland said there is little he would change about his and running mate Nick Parker’s campaign.

“You can always look back and say, ‘Where did I miss those votes?’” he said. “But it was a great race.”

Strickland and Parker, a fourth-year in political science and sociology, spent more than $2,700 campaigning and lost by about 900 of the 8,563 votes cast. They received 21.9 percent of the vote.

Niraj Antani, a third-year in political science and philosophy, and Nikki Brown, a third-year in political science and women studies, came in third for the election, with 19.9 percent of the votes.

“We congratulated Taylor and Kevin on the winning,” Antani said. “I think that all four teams ran a good campaign. Obviously the result is unfortunate, but I think we are looking forward to

working with Taylor and Kevin on ensuring that student government is the voice of the students.”

Travis Skaggs, a second-year in economics, and Danielle Meyer, a third-year in political science, finished in fourth in the campaign with 16.6 percent of the vote.

“When the results came in, I was a little disheartened and there was a bit of a shock, but I was glad the campaigning was over,” Skaggs said.

All four candidate duos were involved in USG before the campaign, and said they hope to continue to work for students.

“I’d really like to see joint jurisdiction between the campus and Columbus police departments,” Parker said.

Antani said the voice still belongs to the students.

“This election shows that students can be involved in the process,” Antani said. “So I just hope that students hold the new administration accountable, that students voice their concerns, that students get involved in the process.”

After the hectic two-week campaign window, Antani said he hopes USG still has a presence on campus.

“I think that students still have a general feeling that USG shows up for two weeks and annoys people and leaves,” Antani said. “Hopefully Taylor and Kevin have taken that message to heart and they won’t just disappear.”

Skaggs said after two weeks of campaigning on the Oval, the first thing he wants to do is change his wardrobe.

“After the voting closed we all took off our yellow T-shirts because that was our wardrobe for two weeks,” Skaggs said. “I don’t want to wear yellow again for quite a few months.”

OSU students given opportunity to dish up meal, dine, interact with President Gee ZACH WATSON Lantern reporter watson.620@osu.edu Is Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee more of a spaghetti and meatballs man, or a fettuccine carbonara aficionado?

By submitting a video, students will have the chance to win an opportunity to host a dinner for Gee. To participate in the contest, students must submit a video of one minute or less, explaining why they should host the dinner and what they would serve to Gee. The winning students will be notified

by May 1 and will be dishing delicacies to Gee on May 18 at 7 p.m. in their home.

The inspiration for the event, organized by the Office of Student Life, was cooking competitions on television, said Taylor Knight, an administrative intern for the Office of Student Life.

“This idea came out of a brainstorming session that a group of student interns organized,” Knight said. “With the current popularity of the Food Network and other cooking shows, we thought this would be a great event for students to be a part of.”

Students were informed of the contest on April 9 with a digital flier, but a small space resulted in the omission of some details. Knight said winning students will submit ingredients they need and the Office of Student Life will buy their groceries. Additionally, there will be an Ohio Union chef available the day of the dinner to assist the winning students.

Knight said the number of winning students is dependent on how many students make the winning video; multiple students can work together to create one video for the contest. Only one video will be

selected as the winner, but all participants in the winning video will be considered contest winners.

Once the video has been completed, the video must be emailed to Knight by April 20. Knight said video submissions will be judged by five student interns from the Office of Student Life.

With the contest’s deadline approaching, some finer details remain unclear. Knight said the idea of allowing students to see some or all of the submissions had not been discussed yet. Also, because of Gee’s busy schedule, Knight said she did not know how long Gee would be able to dine until it gets closer to May 18.

For some students, the contest presents a rare opportunity.

“I think it seems more interesting than maybe some of the other options that they’ve had before,” said Alycia Buenger, a third-year in comparative studies. “It seems like a lot of work to have to put together a video and then send it in and have it be judged, but it seems interesting.”

Some students just aren’t that interested.

“I’m more focused on enjoying Spring Quarter and trying to study and get grades up instead of trying to have dinner with Gordon Gee,” said Erik Johnson, a first-year in business.

In an email to The Lantern, Gee discussed the positive aspect of the competition.

“Spending time with students is one of the best aspects of being a university president,” Gee said.

“They have a spirit and energy that are infectious, and I am always open for new ways to connect. I am looking forward to the dinner.”

Like Gee, Knight said he realizes the contest is about interaction.

“This is really just a fun, simple way to engage students with Dr. Gee,” Knight said.

“It’s a long laundry list of things,” Siddle said. “They probably could have recovered, but they just don’t care.”

The president of Beta Theta Pi at OSU had not responded to multiple phone calls as of Monday evening.

There are 2,466 initiated alumni, 45 undergraduate and 18 pledge members in the Theta Delta Chapter at OSU. Members in the fraternity have been placed on “alumni” status, according to the letter, and upon graduation will be entitled to the rights and privileges of Beta Theta Pi alumni.

Cobb said the members of Beta Theta Pi living in the fraternity house at 165 E. 15th Ave. will be permitted to remain in the house until the end of the academic year.

Crime from 1A The hate crimes occurred less than a week after a task force was formed in response to other recent acts of vandalism on campus that officials declared as hate crimes. Adams-Gaston and Valerie Lee, vice provost for Diversity and Inclusion, head the task force.

“Dr. Lee and I have repeatedly said, there is no place for hate at Ohio State, and that includes our off-campus community,” Adams-Gaston said in the statement. “We have temporarily covered the offensive graffiti and are working with property owners to permanently remove it.”

President E. Gordon Gee tweeted from his account about the incident on 13th Avenue.

“Angered to learn of hate speech spray-painted across High Street from Union. This is not our University. #OSUStandYourGround #inclusion,” the tweet read.

Columbus Police Sgt. Rich Weiner said they are investigating these incidents and had no further information as of Monday. Morman said the investigation of both incidents is ongoing.

Joe Rowe, a manager at Subway a few doors down from Formaggio Pizza, related the act to the vandalism that occurred at Hale Hall on April 5.

Books from 1A compliance, said it was difficult keeping track of which students had returned their books and which students hadn’t.

“I honestly think the rule was activated to lower the administrative burden,” Olms said.

Kenny said administrative issues were not major motives for changing the rule, but it was an implicit benefit.

“That wasn’t a part of the conversation that prompted the change, but it’s definitely a positive result of putting the change in place,” Kenny said.

“You don’t have to track who’s turning their books in at the end of the term, so they can get books at the start of the next term.”

The Big Ten and OSU might not agree on the direct reason for change, but officials agreed the rule amendment was not made as extra motivation for studentathletes to stay away from illegal means of cash.

“We don’t really look at it in that respect. It’s more permissible per NCAA rules to obtain required books and then it’s permissible per NCAA rules to keep those books or turn it in for the permissible value for that book,” Kenny said. “It’s not an impermissible benefit.”

Olms also said it was permissible.

Logan Jones, a redshirt freshman golf team member on book scholarship said he thinks OSU athletic director Gene Smith is behind the ruling.

“Since we’ve had the problems with just financial issues, Gene Smith thought it would be a good idea if we were allowed to have the books and then sell them to get a little extra money,” Jones said. “I think Gene (Smith) is trying to take off pressure on some students, like if they feel the urge to sell their stuff.”

“I know that thing (the Hale Hall vandalism) a few weeks ago pretty much was disgusting … I think my degree’s worth a little less,” said Rowe, who graduated from OSU in 2009 with a degree in strategic communication.

“Long Live Zimmerman” was spray-painted April 5 on the west walls of Hale Hall, which is home to the Frank W. Hale Jr. Black Cultural Center, part of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion.

The reference, officials said, is most likely to George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch leader who allegedly killed Trayvon Martin in self-defense Feb. 26 in Florida.

Barry Dean, an employee at The Import House next to Subway, said he thought the vandalism might be related to the case involving Zimmerman.

“I think it’s childish and it’s horrible and it needs to stop happening,” Dean said. “It’s not shocking.”

Valerie Henault, a first-year in pre-nursing, said she was upset to learn about another form of hate speech happening on campus.

“Ohio State is supposed to be open,” she said.

“People should be accepted here, people shouldn’t be hated or discriminated against.”

Ally Marotti contributed to this story.

Smith said in an email to The Lantern the new rule allows student-athletes to benefit from the program.

“The NCAA allows for the book program we developed to be implemented,” Smith said in the email. “It affords us a chance to address a studentathlete welfare issue by allowing our student athletes to benefit.”

The NCAA did not respond for a request for comment.

Some athletes at OSU said they don’t understand how the new policy is allowed under NCAA rules.

“I’m trying to figure out how that’s allowed with how the NCAA is about other things,” said Taylore Urban, a sophomore rower at OSU not on book scholarship. “It’s unfair at all the perks athletes get over other students that work just as hard and have jobs and have family issues.”

Urban also said it seems like the policy is unnecessarily taking money from the university.

“For Winter Quarter it was almost $500 for my books, and some athletes can sell that back and keep the money. I kind of think that’s not fair for the university,” Urban said.

Student-athletes are on strict ruling as to where they are allowed to return their books. The official OSU bookstore is Barnes & Noble on High Street, and this is the only place student-athletes are allowed to sell back their books.

Mark Titus talks new book, Final Four, Urban Meyer PAT BRENNAN Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu Former Ohio State men’s basketball walk-on-turned-celebrity Mark Titus was on campus Monday evening promoting his book, “Don’t Put Me in, Coach: My Incredible NCAA Journey from the End of the Bench to the End of the Bench” at the Barnes and Noble bookstore at 1596 N. High St. Titus, the creator of clubtrillion.com signed for about 130 people for more than two hours, burning through five Sharpie pens in the process. After the book signing, Titus, a member of OSU’s 2007 National Runner-up team, sat down with The Lantern to discuss his favorite chapter in “Don’t Put Me in Coach,” as well as what he’d say to Buckeye football coach Urban Meyer if he had the chance.

The Lantern: Mark Titus:

Of the 40 chapters in your book, do you have a favorite?

My favorite one to write, I think, was probably the one where (now-former OSU guard) William Buford gave me permission to use the “N-word.” As I was writing it, I just enjoyed the minefield, you know what I mean? You’ve gotta tip-toe and you gotta be funny and edgy and I’ve always been politically incorrect, but at the same time, you can’t be too offensive. So I really enjoyed writing that because it was a challenge to think of a funny way to say something without pissing off a ton of people.

TL: MT:

Has OSU men’s basketball coach Thad Matta given you any feedback on your book?

I gave him my first author copy. He didn’t actually say it, but he kind of looked at it like, “You know I’m not going to read this, right?” And it was obvious that he wasn’t really that interested, and he kept trying to over-sell it so much, like, “Wow. Whoa.” I haven’t heard from him since about the book. I don’t think he’s read it. I don’t think he’ll read it until he retires, because I don’t think he wants to know what his players are up to. He’s always been that way, like, “Don’t tell me. What I don’t know can’t hurt me.”

TL: MT:

Weirdest thing anyone has asked you to sign at one of your book signing events?

A guy just asked me to sign his chest. There was one lady (at a book signing) in Indianapolis — and I said I would sign any book — and she brought some romance novel that she had. But I signed a chest tonight. Some dude pulled up his shirt.

TL: MT:

You mention in your book that William Buford was your favorite OSU teammate? What do you think is next for Buford’s career?

He’s got NBA talent. When he’s on, he’s unreal. It’s apparent in practice that he’s unbelievably talented. He plays an NBA game too. If he gets

into the NBA, it’ll be better-suited for him because he’s good when you can just throw him the ball and be like, “Do something.” I don’t know if that’s a great thing to say about a guy, that’s he’s not good in structured offenses. It’s hard to say because I’m just like everyone else. It’s like, I wish he would be more consistent and all that kind of stuff. I think he’s definitely going to get a shot.

TL: MT:

Should the Buckeyes have beaten Kansas in the 2012 Final Four National Semifinal game?

Yeah, I mean, (OSU was) the better team, and they proved it for the whole first half. Kansas played awful, it’s just that we played worse. It was pretty frustrating to watch. But OSU would have got smoked by Kentucky anyway. It’s whatever. No one really cares if you go to the National Championship and lose versus go to the Final Four. In 2007 … we still say that was the Final Four team. No one ever says, “National runner-up.”

TL: MT:

Do you have any thought’s on OSU’s Monday announcement that J.D. Weatherspoon will transfer to another school?

It’s easy for me to say he should stay because it worked out well for me, getting the book deal and all that kind of stuff. I can definitely relate (to Weatherspoon), because I thought about quitting before I started my blog, after my sophomore year. We had (won) the NIT (National Invitational Tournament), and I still wasn’t playing. Our team sucked. I was doing really well in practice and I was like, “If I can’t play now, I’m never going to play.” And I kind of had that where, like, “Why am I waking up at 5 a.m. to work out in the summer? What’s the point?

I’m not going to play.” And that was kind of when I decided I’m just going to have fun with it. “Don’t Put Me in Coach,” the whole (book) title, is that thing. It’s like, “Screw it, I don’t want to play. If you’re not going to play me, I don’t even want to play. I’m going to use you. You’re not going to use me.” You know what I mean?

I’m going to use this situation to get what I want out of it instead of you beating the crap out of me with all these workouts. So, I see the point. I kind of wish he would have stuck it out because, I don’t know, there are always late bloomers in college basketball. He would have gotten his chance this year too. He would have played a lot.”

TL: MT:

If you had a chance to sit down with OSU football coach Urban Meyer, what would you tell him?

I would tell him that I have a hell of an arm and I can probably get some eligibility if we work something out. And at least I was a great punter, I will say that much. I would tell Urban, “Gimme a shot. You never know.” I could be this year’s Joe Bauserman, which I’m sure he’s probably excited about.

OSU track welcomes highly-touted recruits DAN HOPE Lantern reporter hope.46@osu.edu When announcing the signings of nine recruits who will be coming to Ohio State as members of the men’s track and field team next season, OSU interim coach Ed Beathea said he believes the future of the team he is coaching is bright.

“This is the best recruiting class we have put together in my time at Ohio State,” Beathea said in a press release.

OSU will welcome a broad range of recruits in its incoming class. The class includes five athletes from Ohio, but also adds four out-of-state recruits.

Among the class are three distance runners, two sprinters, one hurdler, two throwers and one multievent athlete.

Donovan Robertson, a hurdler from Berea, Ohio, headlines the class. Robertson, the 2011 Ohio Gatorade Track and Field Athlete of the Year, has many accomplishments to his name. This

year, Robertson set the indoor national record in the 60-meter hurdles, completing the event in 7.57 seconds. Robertson is also the defending state outdoor champion in the 110-meter hurdles and 300-meter hurdles, and was named to the 2011 USA Today All-USA track and field team.

Beathea said he recognized the significance of signing Robertson.

“Donovan is one of the most talented signees in OSU history,” Beathea said in the press release. “He will have an instant impact on our conference and the country.”

The group of in-state recruits is also highlighted by distance runners. Steven Weaver, from Napoleon, was the 2011 Division II state champion in the outdoor mile run and in cross country. The team also added Nicolas Pupino of Copley and Jordan Redd of Fairborn.

Jack Kincade from Hilliard is the fifth in-state recruit in the class. Kincade scored 6,243 points in the decathlon last season, which was the sixth-best decathlon score among all high school athletes nationwide in 2011.

OSU also lured four recruits from farther east to come west.

Champ Page, a sprinter from Marlboro, Md., is a six-time Maryland state champion. Page finished the 2012 indoor season with times that ranked second nationally in the 300-meter dash with 33.93 seconds, third in the 500 meter with 63.71 seconds, and 11th in the 400 meter with 48.28 seconds. Justin Burke, a sprinter from Virginia Beach, Va., is a two-time defending outdoor state champion in the 100-meter dash, as well as in the 200 meter and 400 meter.

Two throwers will also come to the Buckeyes from other states. Joseph Velez, from Providence, R.I., is joined by javelin thrower Billy Stanley from South Park, Pa. Assistant coach Kevin Mannon praised both incoming throwers. “(Velez) has the ability to make an immediate impact on the Big Ten and NCAA championships in 2013,” Mannon said in a press release. “Billy has already thrown a mark that can score at the Big Ten championships, so we expect him to be a major player for us in 2013.”

OSU junior infielder Brad Hallberg takes a swing during a April 15 baseball game against Nebraska. OSU lost, 5-4.

A sheet of paper listing the Ohio State baseball team’s objectives for the 2012 season hangs in the the players’ lounge.

The Buckeyes players likely see the list every time they pass through the lounge and enter the locker room, and at the top of the list is the goal of posting a 10-0 record in games against other Ohioan schools.

Ohio roots run deep in the OSU program — half of OSU’s 32 players went to high school in Ohio, as did coach Greg Beals.

Beals said it’s necessary to win each game against in-state opponents to prove the Buckeyes are the best in the state.

“It’s defending Buckeye Nation,” Beals said when asked the significance of the goal. “Defending the t-h-e in the title: it’s The Ohio State. If we claim to be and want to be the best baseball program and the best university in the state, then we need to prove it on gamedays.”

Even for the players who are not from the state of Ohio, many believe OSU’s mission of being the best in the state begins with beating every other team from Ohio on the schedule.

“It’s big, it’s big time at the top of our goal sheet,” said junior catcher Greg Solomon, from Litchfield Park, Ariz. “We’re The Ohio State, so we have to be the best team in Ohio. Last year, we didn’t have that mindset and Miami (OH) came in and whooped our butt at home. It’s good to have that mindset that we know we’re the best and we just have to play as the best.”

“It’s defending Buckeye Nation,” Beals said. “Defending the t-h-e in the title: it’s The Ohio State. If we claim to be and want to be the best baseball program and the best university in the state, then we need to prove it on gamedays.”

Greg Beals OSU baseball coach

OSU went 3-3 against Ohio schools in 2011 including a 12-4 home loss to the Miami (OH) RedHawks. OSU also lost an exhibition to the Columbus Clippers at Huntington Park, 4-3. OSU scheduled games against Ohio, Akron and Toledo, all of which were cancelled.

OSU is 5-0 against teams from Ohio beating Toledo, Dayton, Miami (OH), Ohio and Akron in 2012.

OSU has games remaining against Toledo again, Youngstown State, Bowling Green, Cincinnati and Xavier.

The Buckeyes said they are preparing for the two teams from Cincinnati after the Nebraska series Sunday.

“We don’t know much about this year’s Xavier and Cincinnati teams yet,” said junior second baseman Ryan Cypret, from Powell, Ohio. “We’re getting our scouting report together and I’m sure we will soon.”

OSU plays the Xavier Musketeers (15-21, 5-4 A-10) Tuesday at 6:35 p.m. and the Cincinnati Bearcats (12-23, 2-10 Big East) Wednesday at 7 p.m.

OSU student wins Irish dancing crown

releases music

Michael Holland, a 22-year-old from Hilliard, Ohio, boarded a plane headed to Belfast, Northern Ireland, April 5 to compete in the World Irish Dancing Championships. He returned to Ohio April 10, trophy in hand, as the Senior Men’s World Irish Dancing Champion.

There were more than 4,000 competitors representing more than 25 different countries at the World Championships, Holland said.

Holland has been dancing since he was 3 years old. He has competed in the World Championships 10 times and placed second twice.

“This time around, I practiced more than I ever had in the past,” Holland said. “I went to a trainer twice a week. I lost weight and ate really healthy. It was true dedication.”

Holland comes from Irish roots. Dancing is a tradition that has been passed down to him and his three siblings.

“My mom danced when she was younger,” Holland said. “My papa comes from Ireland and my nana got her daughter and her (other children) into dancing, and the tradition continued on to me.”

Holland’s sister, Caitlin Holland, a third-year in early childhood education, teaches at Richens/ Timm Academy of Irish Dance in Dublin, Ohio where Michael attends.

“It’s still hard to believe,” Caitlin Holland said.

“We’ve been hoping he’d win since he was 12. Every time he loses, we all lose. We’re really proud and it’s a huge sense of relief.”

Michael Holland won the North American Irish Dance Championships five times and the All-Ireland

Irish Dancing Championships twice, he said. Now that he has won the World Championships, he said he is not sure what his future holds.

After graduating from high school in 2008, Michael Holland attended OSU but decided to take some time off in 2010 to pursue his love for Irish dance. He said he intends to return to OSU Autumn Semester 2012 but is undecided with a major.

“Right now, I’m in the international studies department focusing on business, but I’m not sure if I want to continue with that or not. We’ll see,” he said. “I’m kind of just letting the wind blow me in any direction and seeing where I land.”

Michael Holland’s coaches, John and Heather Timm, have a history with competitive Irish dance and are “extremely excited and thrilled” with Holland’s success, John Timm said.

John Timm won the World Championships in 1993 after 19 years of Irish dance classes with his instructor, Ann Richens. After winning the World Championships, Richens brought John Timm on as a business partner. The dance academy was then retitled the Richens/Timm Academy of Irish Dance.

Heather Timm began taking lessons from Richens when she was 6 years old and throughout her career has won second place at the North American Nationals, second place at the All-Ireland Awards, fifth place at World Championships and first place at the Mid-American Championships, she said.

Michael Holland was coached by Richens for the majority of his Irish dance career, as was his mother when she danced, he said.

Richens passed away Aug. 30, after “fighting a recurrence of uterine cancer,” according to an article in The Columbus Dispatch.

Clayton Ford, a 4th-year in arts, survived cancer.

“No Shave November” started normally for Clayton Ford with him advocating for cancer awareness, but it ended with him being diagnosed with testicular cancer.

“I got my doctor’s call when I was sitting down playing video games … It was really shocking,” said Ford, a fourth-year in art. “I stopped playing immediately and started painting.”

Ford said he started painting after his diagnosis to channel what he was going through and express it through his art.

Winter Quarter, Ford created an interactive project titled “Cremasteric Reflex,” which was later displayed in March at Hopkins Hall. Cremasteric reflexes are a muscular reflex that occurs, for example, the left testicle to rise if the left thigh is lightly brushed.

Ford, who wants to get into 3-D animation after he graduates, put microcontrollers in a pair of lifelike testes in order to visualize the reflex that helped detect stage-one cancer in his testicle. His cancer was successfully removed.

“I learned a lot … just from things that my doctor did and personal research,” Ford said. “I just thought it was going to be a pair of balls but the idea evolved.”

When Ford was first diagnosed with cancer, he didn’t want to tell anybody, so he just went about his days smiling like nothing was wrong.

One of the first people he told was his younger brother, Jason Ford, a first-year in biochemistry.

“Initially, I was really surprised and he didn’t want to tell my mom about it, but I made sure she knew about it,” Jason Ford said.

Stacie Ford, Clayton and Jason Ford’s mother, was diagnosed with breast cancer when Clayton was a child. He didn’t tell his parents right away because he didn’t want to burden them with the situation.

“I didn’t want them to worry about it because of what my mom had to go through with breast cancer … I thought that I could just get through it by myself,” Clayton Ford said.

When Stacie Ford did find out about the cancer, she reacted in a way that most mothers would.

“I was concerned about his well-being … what tests had been performed, what plan of action was in place and what the future would hold,” Stacie Ford said. She survived breast cancer in 1995 and 1998.

Once the news broke, Stacie Ford said the family banded together even tighter for Clayton Ford.

“It is times like these that only strengthen our bonds so much more,” Stacie Ford said.

Clayton Ford underwent surgery right before Christmas break, which he said was beneficial because it didn’t interrupt his school schedule.

“It was a really convenient surgery because it was healing up for that whole month, then I came back to school and it was all healed up, pretty much,” Clayton Ford said.

His brother tried to be supportive throughout the whole process.

“He was always telling me that he was here,” Clayton Ford said.

Over winter break, Jason Ford helped Clayton Ford off the couch after surgery because if he used his stomach muscles he could have torn open the incision.

“I kind of felt like everything would be OK, so I wasn’t too worried about it,” Jason Ford said. “It has made me appreciate people that are really close to me more, especially him.”

Even though the cancer has been removed, Clayton Ford still keeps in mind that it could come back and it could be worse. He said this experience has grounded him and changed the ways he views a few things.

“I don’t think that anyone ever moves on, and it’s good that people don’t,” Clayton Ford said, “because it hits you hard and it changes your life.”

Despite playing for crowds of 25,000-plus and working with a hip-hop producer, Imagine Dragons is staying true to its indie rock roots.

Imagine Dragons is scheduled to perform at A&R Music Bar Wednesday. Doors open at 7 p.m.

The band took flight when guitarist Wayne Sermon and singer Dan Reynolds met through a mutual friend.

“I had just finished school at Berklee College of Music in Boston and wanted a career in music,” Sermon said.

Its current tour is to promote its fourth EP, “Continued Silence,” its first EP with Interscope Records.

Sermon said the band is expecting to release a full-length LP in early September.

“It’s Time” is one of the biggest hits from “Continued Silence.”

“They are all our babies, but I think ‘It’s Time’ is my favorite, and probably the whole band’s favorite

Arizona law that would ban ‘trolling’ violates Bill of Rights

Irish from 1B John Timm said Michael Holland’s journey to first place was a long and sometimes discouraging one, but he said he was certain Michael Holland was capable and deserving of the World Champion title.

“There were years he was sure to win and didn’t,” John Timm said. “We always wondered if everything was going to fall into place for him. It was a humongous sense of relief (when he won) because he deserved it so many times.”

Heather Timm said she knew

Greetings, readers of The Lantern, to a new column experience. Ours will be a dark and depraved journey into the heart of what is wrong (and hedonistically right) with the people on this planet, my downward spiral of chemical imbalances and opinions on current affairs unlikely to be voiced in any other modern news publication of this caliber.

Ah, to have opinions. It’s not good sense to have them in this business, let alone keep a permanent, public record of them. We’re a stolid bunch, journalists. “Stick to the facts,” we’re told.

But what then are we to do when we face a world of non-facts and glaring inconsistencies in the newsmedia that’s injected daily into our non-consenting consciousness? Well, my friends, when that time comes, we must look up to those of us with enough guff to throw aside what is accepted as fact and put down into ink what is really going on — damn the facts!

I can’t say I’ve enough guff in me, but I certainly have enough alcohol, and that’s the closest substitute, so here’s a non-fact, and one bound to reappear in “Jerry the Fly: Weirdness From Below” for as long as

JaMes garcia garcia.299@osu.edu it’s allowed to endure: censorship is ungood.

Arizona has done it again, with yet another robotic, constitution-shredding, venus citizen-trap legislation: House Bill 2549. If signed by the governor, it will make it illegal to “troll” on the Internet in Arizona, effectively policing the Internet — and defiling the First Amendment — within the state.

As if webspace exists within state boundaries.

Don’t get me wrong, YouTube comments are about as intellectually stimulating as early 20th century

Michael Holland deserved to win but wasn’t sure the judges would award him with first place.

“In terms of the judges, they’re more familiar with overseas dancers.

They know their faces,” Heather Timm said. “Michael has a really good reputation because he’s been there so many times, but it’s quite a feat for an American to win now.”

Heather Timm said she and her husband knew Michael Holland had won the first of two rounds, but waiting to hear the results of the second round was a nerve-wracking experience.

prefrontal lobotomies, but, in the words of Evelyn Beatrice Hall, in an attempt to sum up Voltaire’s principles, “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.”

Might I remind you of what the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights says: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.”

I was in a communication course here at Ohio State in which a shocking majority of students raised their hands in favor of censoring the news media, in regard to depictions of war victims and graphic war-scenes on television.

To me, this is yet another sign of the impending implosion of our empire, and you should be very scared for your rights as a citizen.

I understand Benjamin Franklin and John Hancock didn’t have smartphones and Facebook on which they could have their pimply teenage dreams crushed by a fat guy with Cheeto stains on his undersized wifebeater who disagreed with their taste in music. But they were allowed to duel to the death over the ownership of their slaves, so unless your

“We shot out of our seats we were so excited. It was thrilling,” she said.

“For almost the past 10 years, we’ve been training him on a weekly basis, so it’s been a life-long journey.”

Michael Holland said although winning the World Championships is the highest award he could achieve, Irish dance still has a place in his future.

“My competitive career is pretty much coming to an end at this point,” he said. “But I’ll definitely be teaching in my future.”

overlords in the Supreme Court bring that back — which I wouldn’t be surprised — I think we should leave this point behind.

In fact, most YouTube commenters are proof against evolution. But I will die for their right to exhale stupidity with every breath and keep our species from attaining enlightenment with pleasure, and furthermore, their right to produce micro-moronic babies to inhabit the local discotheques ... except for YouTube user Nintendomaster Rafael, who said, “Arizona is gay!!!! No offense.”

If Arizona were attempting to overcompensate for something, it would be one thing, which I would be balls-to-the-wall in support of — because it’s my right to put them in whatever-gendered wall I want — but these gestapo-tactic laws are just another testament to the natural law of entropy.

Now, a quote from Philip K. Dick to make you a better human being: “The appropriate response to reality is to go insane.”

Lighten up, OSU. Reality’s only going to get worse from here.

right now,” Sermon said. “We have had that song for a while. We wrote that a little over a year ago, and it kind of stayed with us.”

The band is very collaborative, but “It’s Time” was created by making noises in a kitchen.

“This song in particular started with Dan Reynolds, the singer, in the kitchen kind of banging on the table, stomping his feet making the beat you hear in the beginning of the song,” Sermon said.

“It’s Time” has a message.

“I think it’s safe to say that it’s about staying true to who you are at the core,” Sermon said.

Imagine Dragons has worked closely with hip-hop producer Alex Da Kid since being signed to Interscope Records.

“Alex is great in that he doesn’t want to change the band,” Sermon said.

Sermon also said signing with Alex Da Kid and Interscope was great because they wanted to help the band do what they wanted to do, but on a larger scale.

“Most of all we feel fortunate,” Sermon said.

“It is kind of what holds us together, that we are all doing what we love.”

The band has played the South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas, for the last two years, but Sermon said its performance this year was different from others.

“This last time at South by Southwest was a different story,” Sermon said. “We played 15 shows in three days, and it was a whirlwind” compared to the three shows in three days it played two years before.

When it comes to the show that was pivotal for the band, Bite of Las Vegas in 2011 was a huge turning point.

“We were playing for 25,000-plus, and it was a really thrilling experience,” Sermon said.

Imagine Dragons is held together by their love of all genres of music, from The Beatles to Muse, Sermon said.

“That’s the thing we all have in common is the love for early rock ‘n’ roll, and I think it shows in what we do.”

Tickets are $10 presale and $12 the day of the show.
