LAUREN HALLOW Senior Lantern reporter hallow.1@osu.edu The Ohio State community experienced its second sudden death in a week when Senior Vice President for University Development Andrew A. Sorensen died Sunday at the age of 72.

Sorensen, who also served as president of The Ohio State University Foundation and as special assistant to the president of advancement, was “one of the most distinguished leaders in higher education,” President E. Gordon Gee said in a statement on OSU’s website.

“Andy (Sorensen) and I have known each other

for 30 years,” Gee told The Lantern Sunday. “He made a real difference.”

Both a statement on OSU’s website and an obituary on Schoedinger Funeral Home’s website referred to Sorensen’s death as sudden. At press time, the cause of death was unknown.

Sorensen came to OSU Andrew Sorensen in September and told The Lantern in October that he wanted to improve the “efÿciency and effectiveness of university administration,” although he

said he looked at himself as more of a “coach and cheerleader” than an actual boss. Sorensen said he was encouraged by OSU’s “can-do spirit,” and was hopeful that he’d be able to interact with the students.

Before Sorensen came to OSU, he was president at the University of South Carolina from 2002–2008.

From 1996–2002, he served as president of the University of Alabama. In 1990 he began as provost and vice president for academic affairs at the University of Florida. In 1986 he joined Johns Hopkins University as the executive director of the AIDS

Nick Messenger (center), USG president-elect, and Emily DeDonato, USG vice president-elect, hug shortly after it was announced that they had won the 2011 USG elections at about 6:30 p.m. Sunday. The winning ticket had a party at 199 E. 14th Ave. Jake Foskuhl (left) and Kevin Flynn (right) also held result-night parties at 2036 N. 4th St. and Woody’s Tavern in the Ohio Union, respectively.

AMANDA CAHOON Lantern reporter cahoon.6@osu.edu After two weeks of campaigns, sidewalk chalking, posting ° yers, creating videos, visiting regional campuses, updating social media and talking to students on campus, the Undergraduate Student Government election results are in. Nick Messenger and Emily DeDonato are the new USG president and vice president.

Messenger, a second-year in economics and political science and USG president-elect, and DeDonato, a second-year in biology and USG vice president-elect, received 51.4 percent of the votes, a

total of 3,899, making them the fourth-highest recipients of vote totals since 1967, when USG began.

Jacob Foskuhl, a third-year in public affairs and Russian, and Melissa Kellams, a second-year in public affairs, came in second with 24.4 percent of the votes, a total of 1,852. Kevin Flynn, a fourthyear in biochemistry and international studies, and Andrea Blinkhorn, a third-year in international studies and political science, came in third with 21.9 percent of the votes, a total of 1,664.

When the election results were posted at 6:30 p.m. on the USG website, Messenger and DeDonato said they were in Messenger’s dorm room in Bradley Hall waiting to hear the news together.

“We’re just beyond excited about the opportunity that we have to actually start doing some of

the things we talked about during the campaign,” Messenger said.

Messenger said the ÿrst thing plans to do as president is, “to appoint a cabinet that we think can carry out all of the platform points and to have a smooth transition in. Then we want to get to work on ‘MySwitch’ right away and have that ready to launch in September.”

“MySwitch” is a website Messenger and DeDonato hope to create that would help students prepare for the quarter-to-semester switch by allowing them to enter their year and major to ÿnd out which classes they would need in order to graduate on time, Messenger said. It would also help students

Chao says goodbye to OSU with 4 majors AMANDA CAHOON Lantern reporter cahoon.6@osu.edu A classic piece of advice given to incoming freshmen is to know what you want to study before entering college.

That proved to be a good idea for an Ohio State student who was prepared enough to work on nearly one degree each year he has been at OSU. David Chao, a ÿfth-year in international studies, German, political science and psychology, will be graduating with four bachelor’s degrees this quarter.

John Hampton, commencement program coordinator for the university registrar, said it is uncommon to see an OSU student receive four bachelor’s degrees.

Hampton said he can only remember one instance of someone graduating with that many degrees, and it was about 20 years ago.

“The possibility of graduating in just ÿve years with four bachelor degrees tells so much about the human spirit,” said executive vice president and provost Joseph Alutto in a statement to The Lantern.

campus RHAC puts on poker face, casino night for local charity DAVID GERAD Lantern reporter gerad.2@osu.edu The cards were shuf° ed, chips in place, tables full and slot machines rolling for gamblers aiming to win big.

About 400 people came to Ohio State’s Residence Hall Advisory Council’s third annual Casino Night Saturday, in the Archie Grifÿn Ballroom located on the second ° oor of the Ohio Union.

RHAC started Casino Night as a way to give back to students and a locally based charity, said James DeGraw, programming director for RHAC and Casino Night coordinator.

Students, staff and administration were encouraged to attend.

In order to buy casino chips, RHAC asked a donation of one household or hygiene item to beneÿt the foundation. Those who donated 10 or more started with extra chips.

At the end of the night, RHAC raf° ed off prizes including a Vizio 26-inch LCD hi-deÿnition television, a Kindle DX Wireless and an Apple iPad.

“I had my one pity ticket because I ran out of chips,” said Rebecca Pytlik, a second-year in aeronautical engineering. “I even had zero chips and got a Blu-ray player.”

Everyone received at least one ticket for attending but additional tickets were given for every $1,000 of chips turned in, Pytlik said.

Catering 1870 of the Ohio Union and Team DJ entertainment, who ran the card tables, helped staff the event, DeGraw said.

RHAC is a student organization designed to promote the on-campus experience.

“RHAC puts on programming that supports the residence hall learning experience,” said Curtis Dugar, assistant director of residence life and RHAC adviser. “(Casino night is) one of our hallmark events; we put in a lot of money, effort and time for another successful night.”

DeGraw said RHAC spent almost $25,000 on casino night.

“RHAC is partially sponsored through the student activity fee. Also, we are in charge of all of the linens programs and on-campus marketing,” DeGraw said. “So most of our funds come from any linens you buy or care packages your parents send you.”

This is the ÿrst time RHAC has beneÿted LifeCare Alliance, DeGraw said.

“LifeCare is a locally based non-proÿt organization that beneÿts various charities and other outreach programs,” DeGraw said. “We value what they do for the Columbus community and wanted to beneÿt them by having everyone donate hygiene items.”

LifeCare Alliance aims to beneÿt and provide services like mealson-wheels, visiting nurses and wellness centers to assist the elderly or chronically ill throughout Franklin and Madison counties, according to LifeCareAlliance.org.

Representatives from LifeCare Alliance did not immediately respond for comment.

For students like Donald Seedes, a second-year in ÿnance, Casino Night was well worth his money and donation.

“I think it’s a good time and a good cause, so why not give the money,” Seedes said. “If they do it again I’ll deÿnitely comeback.”

First Lady Michelle Obama speaks during the Joining Forces event with Dr. Jill Biden at the Sear Distribution Center in Columbus on Thursday.

HARRY LOCKE / Lantern reporter

First Lady, Jill Biden join forces for military families GORDON GANTT Lantern reporter gantt.26@osu.edu A new initiative from First Lady Michelle Obama and Jill Biden could help bring stability to the uncertain lives of military families.

Obama, Biden and Labor Secretary Hilda Solis came to Columbus Thursday as part of a national tour to promote Joining Forces, a comprehensive, national initiative to support service members and their families in a variety of ways.

The event at the Sears Distribution Center in west Columbus focused on business’ efforts to provide jobs for military families and veterans.

Sears Holdings, a corporate partner with Joining Forces, announced a new program called the Permanent Change of Duty Station (PCS) Promise last Tuesday.

The program helps military spouses who work at Sears secure job transfers when the military relocates them.

Obama talked about the difÿculties military spouses have in developing a career because of frequent moves with the more than 200 Sears associates in the crowd.

“We see them trying to build seniority at a job,” Obama said. “They have to start over every time they have to move to a new duty station, with that comes a whole new job search and that’s not easy.”

Grant Curell, a third-year in computer science and engineering, is a cadet in the Air Force

Reserve Ofÿcer Training Corps. Curell grew up in a military family and said the lifestyle can be hard on relationships.

“There is a lot of uncertainty in our lives,” Curell said. “One of our primary concerns is jobs for spouses.”

Though Curell is not married, he and his girlfriend have had conversations about her career once he earns his commission as an ofÿcer.

“It’s especially hard for young families,” Curell said. “To have any certainty about anything would be great. It would help us a lot in terms of morale.”

In this economy, however, uncertainty has also spread to the civilian realm.

Despite some signs of economic recovery, 8.9 percent of Ohioans are unemployed, according an April 15 report from the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services. A 2010 U.S. Bureau of Labor and Statistics report shows that unemployment is even more prevalent among recent military veterans.

According to the report, national civilian unemployment was at 9.4 percent while unemployment among veterans of the Global War on Terror was at 11.5 percent.

“There are employment resources available through the military, but they aren’t really userfriendly,” said Avi Zafÿni, an OSU alumnus and Marine Corp Reservist who served in Operation Iraqi Freedom. “I ended up just using regular resources like Google search and monster.com.”

Zafÿni said ÿnding employment is particularly

Competitors line up at the start of the final race for the men’s ‘Most Fit Buckeye’ competition. Tony Ward (far right), a 4th-year in pre-physical activity, won the competition with a time of 10:35 for the obstacle course that included various feats, such as a weight sled pull, truck tire flip and a 100-yard sprint finale.

Winners prove they are fit to be named ‘Most Fit Buckeye’ in physical contest HARRY LOCKE Lantern reporter locke.59@osu.edu Ripping winds and a crude obstacle course pushed 65 competitors to their physical apexes Sunday, with each competing to claim the title of Ohio State’s “most ÿt” student.

The university’s inaugural “Most Fit Buckeye” competition, held from 8:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. at the Lincoln Tower Park, was the result of a tandem effort between faculty from the health and exercise department and the students’ Exercise Science Club (ESC) to create an event that would determine the most ÿt male and female at the university.

Tony Ward, a fourth-year in pre-physical activity, and Allee Ianni, a fourth-year in exercise science, completed the course with runtimes of 10:35 and 12:40, respectively, and claimed the titles of OSU’s most ÿt male and female.

“The goal was not to be a really fast marathon runner or a really strong person, but to be the most well-rounded and the most healthy,” said Elan Lieber, ESC president and a third-year in exercise science education. “Our event consisted of strength, ° exibility, aerobic ÿtness and even mental toughness.”

Four athletes in different lanes competed in waves, with each individual striving for the top time. The four men and four women with the best

times during the preliminaries competed against each other during the last race of the day for a chance to win an iPad. While most participants spent time preparing for the event’s obstacle course, 30 mph winds played a surprise factor most had not accounted for in their training.

“The wind was hard because it was almost taking my breath away as I was running,” said Ward, who won an iPad for ÿnishing ÿrst. “I could feel my lungs just ÿlling up as I went in (the course).”

The “Most Fit Buckeye Course” challenged participants with a spectrum of obstacles that included a weight sled pull, seated rope and plate pull, ° exibility test with a limbo bar, cone drills, lateral jumps, truck tire ° ips, army crawls, balance drills by walking backwards on a beam, box jumps onto a plyometric shaped box, cerebral testing with a color-match game, two 0.5-mile run sprints and a 100 yard sprint ÿnale.

While the competition cost the ESC around $3,500, Galen said, the group raised $12,050 that will be donated to Pelotonia for the ÿght against cancer.

“All our money was raised through club funds,” Lieber said. “The student union and the Undergraduate Student Government also helped fund us, so all the equipment we bought we can use for years to come to make this event bigger and better each year.”

In “Some students feel nondiscrimination policy is still too exclusive,” The Lantern reported on Wednesday that USG Speaker of the Senate Andrew Mikac said, “It seems to me that it is very inconsistent to give such a carve-out to one set of organizations and not to others. We have ethnic organizations. Why shouldn’t they be able to discriminate? When it comes down to it, I think it is a matter of consistency.” In fact, USG Senator Niraj Antani, who represents Social and Behavioral Sciences, said that quote.

In the same story, The Lantern reported that the council voted 12-1 in favor of the new proposal. In fact, the council voted 12-2.

Student with 4 majors known as ‘walking-book guy’ what he will accomplish in the next ÿve years! It is also gratifying to know that Ohio State can accommodate a student with such desire, drive and diligence.”

This quarter, Chao is taking 35 credit hours, the most he has taken in one quarter. He said he typically takes 20 to 25 credit hours per quarter and only took classes during one summer quarter.

While Chao has a high number of classes and majors, he has a little time for other activities, like sleep.

Chao said he sleeps for, at most, one hour per day Monday through Thursday and catches up on rest during the weekends.

To make the most of his time, he had to become creative with multitasking.

“Some people have actually told me that they’ve seen me and will greet me as the walking-book guy,” Chao said. “I’m always walking with my nose in a book.”

Chao said he was around 15 years old when he decided what he wanted to study in college.

He was born in Rockville, Md., but has lived in Columbus most of his life. He said his mother, who came from Taiwan, raised him in accordance with a strict East-Asian attitude.

Chao attends OSU on a scholarship covering his

full tuition and said the decision to complete four degrees came from deciding to spend ÿve years at OSU. “I thought of it in terms of mathematics,” Chao said. “There was actually very little incentive to go very quickly.”

He split up his four majors by taking them somewhat separately. He said he started his freshman year working on psychology, moved to international studies and then to political science, while taking German classes throughout.

“I had a pretty good distribution in terms of how I separated (the majors),” Chao said.

In addition to pursuing four degrees, Chao works as a student research assistant and will complete study abroad trips to Germany, Ukraine and Indonesia.

Chao said he believes his four degrees and trips abroad complement each other.

“I think it makes me very viable for a number of jobs,” he said.

After graduating in June, Chao said he will complete a study abroad trip to Indonesia and then begin ofÿcer’s school for the Marines. He said he plans to attend graduate school and is considering a dual master’s degree.

Chao said he is not sure what area he plans to pursue his master’s degree in.

Chao said one of his greatest feelings about graduation does not come from earning four degrees.

“Leaving school with no debt is my biggest achievement,” Chao said.

U.S. Army veteran, said Sears employs more than 30,000 military veterans and offers unique services to guardsmen and reservists who are called to active duty.

“When they get called up, we’ll actually pay the difference between their military pay and what they were making at Sears and continue their beneÿts for their families,” Aiello said. “That means a lot, so they can worry about going over and doing their mission and coming home safe.”

Aiello hopes Joining Forces and Sears will inspire other companies, both small and large, to take action to help veterans and military families.

“To see my company reaching out to veterans and military families makes me very proud,” Aiello said. “It really gives me great heart to see America rising to the challenge.”

“What we’re hoping for in the future, is that we can set up a permanent course on west campus, working with the Recreation Department and actually having this be a year-round event,” said Rick Petosa, a professor in health and exercise science who helped organize and administrate the event. “Also, the school of health and physical activity wants to actually setup a course [class], where you can take the course and train for this event every quarter.”

Flynn said each USG slate did a good job.

“Everyone was always up early and going to bed late trying to talk to as many people as humanly possible,” Flynn said. “I think everyone did a great job with that.”

During the late 1990s, Grandma’s third husband and Bill’s wife passed away three months apart.

They could not be separated until a few years ago, when Bill was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and placed in a home. Still, she ANDREA CHAFFIN visited him often. Sometimes, he chaffin.47@osu.edu didn’t recognize his own daughter’s face, but he always smiled when Grandma bent down to kiss him goodbye, and responded with an “I love you, too.”

I would be willing to wage a bet against any challenger. My grandmother is way cooler than yours – hands down.

She and I have been very close my entire life. My sister and I are two of more than 30 grandchildren, and it could be easily speculated that we are her favorites. She practically raised us. She bought our clothes.

She fed our never-ending appetites with homemade pies and noodles.

She attended countless games, ceremonies, awards, dinners, birthday parties, concerts and musicals to watch us.

She wears belly shirts and glittery lotion in the summer. She plays Elvis Presley on her vintage organ, which is always per my request, and she loves a nice, cold Coors Light every once in awhile. But not draft.

Too watery, she says.

She’s 88 years old.

She was born before the Great Depression. She was a “Rosie the Riveter” during World War II, manufacturing weapons for the war effort.

She raised four children and was married three times, with her first marriage ending in divorce during the 1940s. She was a pioneer, at that time. She finally retired when she was 83 years old.

The wisdom gained throughout her years of experiences is unmatched, and perhaps what I enjoy the most about our time together are the stories she tells and the lessons she teaches. They are not always taught purposefully.

This past weekend, her long-time companion passed away. They met in 1957 when she was selling Avon door to door. Bill was married and Grandma was married to her second husband. She and his wife immediately hit it off, she recalled. The foursome became close friends

messy details, so wedding bells were not rung for the fourth time for Grandma.

“He told me he wanted to propose so that I knew I belonged to him,” she recalled on the phone. “But, I already did.”

It didn’t matter what they were doing, as long as it was together, she continued.

I remember walking in the back door to find them sitting on the couch holding hands. Their heads lied against each other’s to form one ball of white hair, and “Wheel of Fortune” was cranked up loud enough to be heard blocks away.

Other times, they enjoyed their much-deserved retirement by traveling. Grandma’s bedroom is a shrine to these trips. The walls are covered in pictures taped together. Sometimes, if they were sitting across from each other, they would take the other’s picture. Then, Grandma would cut the copies and tape them together to make it look like they were sitting together in a single frame.

They were like high school sweethearts by the way they gripped onto one another while dancing at my sister’s wedding in 2008. Only, they had known each other for 60 years.

My grandmother does not complain or whine. I have never heard her echo “woe is me,” and while I attempted to restrain my own tears while she laughed through hers, I respected her in a new way.

Grandma is a fighter. She overcomes obstacles. She adapts, as she and the other Rosies showed in the 1940s.

Prior to the Major League Baseball season, ESPN.com writer Jim Caple wrote a column in which he ranked the league’s 30 team logos. I was eager to read it and thought that my favorite team, the Cleveland Indians, would finish high on the list because of its logo’s creativity.

Instead, Chief Wahoo finished dead last, not because, in Caple’s opinion, it lacked creativity or was poorly drawn, but because it was “wildly inappropriate.” In other words, he believes the logo of a smiling Indian face wearing a single feather is racist, offensive and insensitive.

He is not alone. Other columns and articles have been written saying much the same thing. Some have called for the logo to be removed, and others have even argued the name “Indians” should be replaced with something more politically correct.

It is no surprise that in today’s ultra-sensitive culture people would take offense to a Native American logo, because frankly, some individuals take offense to everything.

However, many of the people who argue this point, while doing a great job of calling Chief Wahoo offensive, fail miserably at explaining why.

Cleveland Indians, knows that these feelings are out there, but said there is no intention to demean.

“We think it is strictly a caricature, strictly a logo that when people look at it, they think baseball,” he said.

This is the reason, he said, the logo is never animated or humanized, so as to not offend anyone. He also added that before anyone decides whether they like the logo or team name, they should understand the origin and history of how it came to be.

From 1903 to 1914, the team was called the “Cleveland Naps,” named after the legendary second baseman Napolean Lajoie. But upon Lajoie leaving after the 1914 season, it was apparent that finding a new team name was in order.

Baseball writers in Cleveland were called upon to select a new name, a request that eventually found its way to the fans. Through this process, the name “Indians” was agreed upon, in honor of Louis Francis Sockalexis, who played for the team in the late 1890s.

Sockalexis was the first Native American to play professional baseball, and he did so in Cleveland.

“There is a history lesson to be learned here, first and foremost,” DiBiasio said. “Before you determine whether you like it or not, please understand why we do it.”

Organizations do not choose their teams’ names to express racist emotions toward a certain group of people. They choose

their names to express strength, pride and, in the case of the Indians, respect.

I am afraid that we are slowly becoming a society that bends after every word of complaint.

There are serious efforts in place to sterilize our culture, even in sports. But before anyone finds fault with the Indians’ name or logo, they should first learn the story behind it.

“We understand that social mores change,” DiBiasio said, “but we believe the historical significance of this is so deeply rooted in the fabric of our region that people know there is no intent to demean, and it is there to foster the legacy of Louis Sockalexis.”

Awareness week all about bringing people together

and be “one nation under a groove.” Students in the ‘70s were still feeling the vibe from the civil rights movement, yellow movement, black power movement and women’s movement. They would get together starting with just a community-focused event on west campus between the towers.

What started as a block party that brought all students PATRICIA CUNNINGHAM together, eventually became the cunningham.212@osu.edu AAHF. This created a forum for critical conversation and solidarity in understanding that black history and the lived experience in the United States are not mutually exclusive. Learning and experiencing black heritage are part of the American experience.

It is the same way we learn about history that makes everything seem separate. The great thing about this year’s theme is that the organizers are intentional about the inclusion aspect. When visiting

LANTERN Columnist

One of my favorite lectures I ever attended was to hear the descendents of Sally Hemings speak. Shay Banks-Young and Julia Jefferson Westerinen are descendents of Thomas Jefferson from his 38-year “relationship” with his house slave, Hemings. Julia descends from Jefferson and Hemings’ son, Eston, who passed for white, troubling his connection to Jefferson. In contrast, Eston’s brother, Madison, (Shay’s direct ancestor) lived as a man of color.

In 1998, after a series of DNA testing, one of the most complex families in American history came together and began a journey of reconciliation. David Works, a descendant of Martha and Thomas Jefferson, more recently joined in the conversation of bringing the family together to be in conversation and in acceptance of all the social and cultural forces that were beyond their control.

This lecture reminded me that reconciliation is a hard process; it is a journey that needs vision and necessitates forgiveness and intentionality. The university has become a space where this is done programmatically.

April 23 begins the African American Heritage Festival week for 2011. The theme for this year is Lengo, which means “vision” in Swahili. I’d estimate about 10 percent of the campus gets excited for this week, but a majority of people have no idea that it is arriving.

The history of the AAHF is rooted in an interesting story. This story is grounded in an idea that people could come together

the heritage festival website, I read that the kick-off event has a recess theme. Who doesn’t love recess? All Buckeyes can gather around the idea of play, and I think that no one should hesitate to rush to the South Oval to participate.

The only way we can truly all be Buckeyes is if we stop acting separately and start behaving with the intention of what the awareness weeks, months and days are about: remembering the past and rewriting history so we do not repeat mistakes and bringing folks together. Attending events during this AAHF week and all the other programs associated with other campaigns of that ilk are just as important as Oval Beach and football games.

If Jefferson’s descendents can acknowledge the past, forgive and be present so they can be a family, so can Buckeyes. The more we go outside our comfort zone to understand each other, the more we can really learn about ourselves. The model of progress is not if we can all be in the same classroom, it is if we can intentionally go to Woody’s and have a beer together and enjoy each other’s company.

I am going to start with the Festival this year. What are you going to do?

OSU quidditch team flies high GRACE ELLIS Lantern reporter ellis.489@osu.edu Capes whipped in the wind as broomsticks collided, sending players spilling to the ground. As the chasers wrestled for control of the quaf° e, the sidelines exploded into cheers as the snitch came into view from behind the distant tennis courts.

The seekers took off after the snitch, and after several minutes of angry shoving and guttural grunting, the Ohio State player raised his ÿst triumphantly.

He caught the snitch, and the game was over.

The brooms may not have been ° ying, but there was plenty of magic at OSU’s ÿrst-ever quidditch tournament on Sunday night. After losing at the hands of the vaguely Slytherin-green Michigan State University, the OSU team went on to defeat the Denison University team.

While the sport lacks real magical properties, quidditch requires a certain level of athleticism to be a successful player, said Andi Hendrickson, a thirdyear in journalism and English and vice president of OSU’s Quidditch Club.

“It’s a lot harder than most people think,” she said. “They think we’re just running around with brooms between our legs, playing a friendly game, but it’s much more difÿcult than that.”

Based on the rules outlined in J.K. Rowling’s “Harry Potter” series, muggle quidditch, or quidditch sans-magic, is played with seven players on each team.

“It’s a mix of rugby and dodgeball and tag,” said Matt Retta, a second-year in industrial engineering and one of the team’s beaters.

Chasers score by throwing the quaf° e, a soccer ball, into one of the other team’s goals, Hendrickson said.

Three players named the team’s beaters are tasked with throwing dodgeballs at the opposing team. When a player is hit, he or she has to touch their own goal before they can continue playing, Hendrickson said.

The game ends when the snitch, a person dressed in gold, is caught. “(The snitch) is sort of like a ° ag football kind of thing. The seekers try to catch the ° ag,” Hendrickson said.

Bottoms up, Buckeyes: Help move OSU up party school list ARTS Columnist

There is no denying Ohio State is a top-notch school in several ways.

With one of the largest student populations in the country, nationally competitive athletics and academic programs that rank worldwide, there is nothing we Buckeyes can’t do well.

This is why it took me JUSTIN CONLEY by surprise when Playboy conley.325@osu.edu released its 2011 list of the top 10 party schools with one glaring oversight.

OSU failed to place on the list, losing out to schools such as No. 2 Penn State University and No. 6 University of Wisconsin.

Surely the sheer madness of Michigan week and the Mirror Lake Jump alone are enough to beat out No. 4 University of Western Ontario as the only things Canada has are Mounties and maple syrup.

At ÿrst, I thought the squares at Playboy could not possibly know anything about what an awesome party looks like if they shafted OSU. Perhaps they should stick to writing a magazine everyone buys to read the articles (with a stray picture of a naked woman or two that their subscribers probably don’t even notice). Of course, reality dashed this line of thought immediately after I realized that anyone even vaguely connected to Playboy founder Hugh Hefner would know what an awesome party looks like.

Playboy editors used a thorough formula that included

6A

input from their social media pages, interviews with campus representatives and statistics on male-to-female ratio and sports teams’ victories to determine their top 10.

Bonus points were awarded for proximity to beaches, ski slopes and a vibrant music scene, according to the article.

Although it might seem that many of these factors are out of our control, don’t lose hope yet.

This is the call to arms we need. As individuals, we might not be notable, but when working together, we can party hard enough to make up for any deÿciencies.

Although it might be difÿcult to best No. 1 University of Colorado at Boulder, where students celebrate April 20 with mass public marijuana use, according to the list, 65,000-plus Buckeyes joining together in the pursuit of excellence could make the University of Colorado at Boulder look like a nursing home on bingo night.

Penn State or Wisconsin? Please, we could take both of them on any “Thirsty Thursday” with lampshades covering our eyes and still have the weekend to mop the ° oor with the rest of the list.

Banded together, we Buckeyes can show the editors at Playboy that OSU works hard and plays harder. If our collective mojo doesn’t push us to the top of Playboy’s list by this time next year, Hefner might as well throw in the towel and get a job greeting customers at his nearest grocery store because he has obviously lost his touch.

Bottoms up, Buckeyes.

Disclaimer: Always behave responsibly. While making the top 10 next year would be awesome, please consider your bodily health before making the decision to drink. I will not post your bail or give you part of my liver for a transplant, even if these issues come as a result of reading this column.

quidditch teams in the United States, in addition to a handful of international teams, Hendrickson said.

“It’s becoming a much bigger deal on campus.

People know us,” Hendrickson said. “We still get a lot of strange looks, but it’s gaining a lot of ground, not just on campus but in the nation.”

Because the sport is a part of Harry Potter– mania, it’s something that bookworms and athletes alike can enjoy, said Emily Toutkoushian, a fourthyear in sport and leisure studies and one of the club’s co-founders.

“All different skill levels can play it,” Toutkoushian said. “You can be really intense and really sporty, or you can just go out and have fun running around on a broomstick.”

While the tournament was established to give the team a chance to compete before November’s Quidditch World Cup, some joined the quidditch team as a way to reconnect with the “Harry Potter” books.

“It’s really fun. It’s a good game,” said Alex Dulin, a ÿrst-year in molecular genetics and one of the team’s beaters. “It’s a good way to live out a childhood fantasy.”

The following schools have earned a spot on Playboy’s 2011 Top 10 Party Schools list: 10. University of California, Santa Barbara 9. University of Central Florida 8. University of Tennessee, Knoxville 7. University of Georgia 6. University of Wisconsin 5. University of Texas at Austin 4. University of Western Ontario 3. Arizona State University 2. Penn State University

1. University of Colorado at Boulder

arts&life Hulu U: Students get free month of ‘Plus’ KRISTEN LOTT Lantern reporter lott.57@osu.edu College students don’t always have free time to watch TV, but still want to follow their favorite characters as they ÿst pump their way through the summer. Online streaming of TV shows is becoming more popular with busy college students, and Hulu.com is catching on.

College students can now receive a free, one-month trial subscription to Hulu’s premium Hulu Plus service by signing up with their university email address.

Once the free student trial expires, the Hulu Plus subscription will cost $7.99 per month. A month-long subscription to Net° ix also costs $7.99 a month.

Those with a Hulu Plus subscription have access to a wider variety of content and more accessibility than regular subscribers. Normally, Hulu users can watch the ÿve most recent episodes of a TV show, but Hulu Plus enables users to watch all current season episodes of various shows such as “Glee” and “30 Rock.” Select full-series runs of shows such as “Arrested Development” and “Desperate Housewives” are also available.

“We focus on a high-quality user experience, making online video easy to use and convenient to consume when, where and how people want, which is important for a busy student,” Elisa Schreiber, head of communications at Hulu, said in an email.

Hulu Plus subscribers can also watch content instantly in HD to Internet-connected devices, Schreiber said.

“We want students to be able to catch last night’s episode of Glee on their iPhone while bussing (sic) to class and ÿnish it off at home on their laptops,” she said in the email.

Many Ohio State students are familiar with Hulu.com.

Megan Barnett, a third-year in psychology, said despite occasional buffering problems, she loves Hulu and uses it all the time.

Kyle Pacelli, a second-year in ÿnance, said he is unsure of Hulu Plus’ potential success when compared to the popular online movie and TV subscription service, Net° ix.

“If they can offer as good of a service as Net° ix, then they will do OK. But I think people prefer Net° ix overall,” he said.

Emily Aten, a fourth-year in nursing, said she knows about Hulu, but doesn’t use it very often.

“I usually watch things (shows) online,” she said. “I don’t know if I would pay for it. It’s not really a priority.”

OSU dancers take 3rd in regional dance competition LAUREN BROWN Lantern reporter brown.3978@osu.edu Extraterrestrials, driving bass beats and superheroes invaded the Ohio Union as eight dance teams competed to be the best in the Midwest over the weekend.

The ÿfth annual Midwest Mix Up Dance Competition attracted a crowd of nearly 1,000 people to the Archie M. Grifÿn Grand Ballroom at 6:30 p.m.

Saturday evening.

Of the eight competing teams, six were from Ohio. Dance Linx and Stylez Dance Group were the two teams representing Ohio State.

Dance Linx took third place, ÿnishing behind winners Boyz of Poison, an all-male dance group from Chicago, Ill., and runners-up Too Much Dance, a team from Indianapolis, Ind. Students, families and local residents watched as dancers battled during three rounds of dancing.

Eight judges looked on as dancers performed choreographed routines to song excerpts from popular artists such as Nicki Minaj and Lil Wayne.

The competition started with an introductory round in which each team had 30 seconds to make an impression on the audience. The second round allowed each team to show off its skills for a longer period of time.

Some teams used props to enhance their performance, such as the silver alien body suits worn by members of the Too Much Dance group to portray their “otherworldly” dance routine. Other teams decided to keep it simple by wearing their group’s dance uniforms.

For the third round, each team chose a movie to incorporate into the theme of their dance. “The Incredibles,” “Austin Powers in Goldmember” and “I, Robot” were some of the movies portrayed in the dance routines.

The competition also featured special appearances from artists Demi Lobo, the self-proclaimed pop princess of Chicago, and Party Boyz, a Texasbased hip-hop group.

Daniel “Diddi” Johnson, producer of the competition and OSU alumnus, created this competition as an undergraduate student at OSU to build a common ground for dance groups across campus.

“There’s one thing that’s unanimous between

all cultures,” Johnson said. “Dance brings people together.”

Johnson also said dance is growing and becoming a popular trend.

“Dance is probably one of the...hottest trends right now,” he said. “It’s an exciting year just to see the growth.”

The audience would experience a family-friendly environment for “inner-tainment,” meaning an environment that is comfortable, entertaining and educational, Johnson said.

The OSU students who help him produce the event, Team Mix, have the opportunity to apply the lessons they learn in the classroom, he said.

“We all have degrees, but a lot of us lack work experience,” Johnson said. “Experience is the best teacher.”

This year, some of the proceeds from the competition will be donated to the Youth Needing Organ and Tissue Transplants Foundation. This organization raises awareness about organ donation and advocates for people needing transplants.

Johnson said he chose to include the YNOTT Foundation as a partner in order to eliminate some of the stigma surrounding organ donation.

The money you could be saving.

Edward Drake II, the president of the YNOTT Foundation said he was unsure how much money would be donated to his organization from the ticket sales.

Drake said he was a college football player for Eastern Michigan University when he was diagnosed with end-stage Renal Disease. He said his experience of receiving a kidney transplant inspired him to ÿght for other patients in need.

Sharí Thomas, a second-year in marketing, said she enjoyed the work that went into organizing this competition.

“I woke up excited,” Thomas said about the day of the competition.

Mark Payne, a second-year in business administration, said he joined Team Mix because it was a good opportunity to join an organization. Payne said the event has grown and improved from previous competitions.

Jon Pinkins, a second-year in engineering, agreed.

“I wasn’t expecting this many people,” Pinkins said.

Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee doesn’t take himself seriously.

As a result, he’s made comments about football that have placed him under scrutiny — remarks that he’s later regretted.

Gee told The Lantern editorial board on Wednesday that he regrets making a statement at a March 8 press conference in which football coach Jim Tressel apologized for withholding information vital to an NCAA investigation.

When asked at the press conference if any thought had been given to firing Tressel, Gee replied, with a chuckle, “I hope he doesn’t fire me.”

The sarcastic statement overshadowed the meandering speech Tressel offered minutes earlier.

“I sometimes need to extricate my foot from my mouth,” Gee told The Lantern editorial board. “I admit that. But I have been that way for 30 years.”

It’s not the first time this academic year that Gee has apologized for a football-related comment.

On Nov. 24, 2010, Gee told the Associated Press that Boise State and TCU, both undefeated at the time, didn’t deserve to play in the BCS Championship.

“Well, I don’t know enough about the X’s and O’s of college football,” Gee told the AP. “I do know, having been both a Southeastern Conference president and a Big Ten president, that it’s like murderer’s row every week for these schools. We do not play the Little Sisters of the Poor. We play very fine schools on any given day.”

Gee told The Lantern in January that he would try to censor his sports talk.

ad am ha wkins Senior Lantern reporter hawkins.361@osu.edu Nearly everyone in the world of college football is aware of the impending suspensions of star offensive players Terrelle Pryor and Dan Herron on the Ohio State football team. However, the defense, which was ranked No. 2 in total defense last season, must replace seven starters for the upcoming season.

Defensive lineman Cameron Heyward is expected to be drafted at the end of the first round in this month’s NFL draft, and the Buckeyes must also replace starting cornerbacks Chimdi Chekwa and Devon Torrence.

With all new starters and just a week left before the Spring Game, the defense dominated the OSU offense in Saturday’s scrimmage, forcing five turnovers and not allowing a single touchdown.

Although the offense struggled, junior defensive lineman John Simon said he is not worried about its performance when the season begins.

Although OSU didn’t qualify for team finals on Friday night, seven individuals qualified for the all-around and individual group, and four of those seven qualified to move on to individual finals Saturday night.

Wynn is just the second gymnast in program history to win two straight national titles in rings, tying interim co-coach Blaine Wilson.

“I’m real happy I won an All-American,” Wynn said. “I just did what I needed to do.”

Defensive lineman J ohn Simon holds the line during spring football practice on April 5.

“We see them in practice every day, and we know the offense is very good,” Simon said. “I just think all week we’ve focused on relaxing a little bit and just playing together, and I think it paid off.”

Simon said losing Heyward is a huge loss for the defense, but he has been encouraged by its performance this spring.

“Seeing a lot of the young guys improve and get better every day and just seeing the excitement even though we aren’t working toward a big game or anything,” Simon said. “Just seeing the excitement and passion we have.”

During Saturday’s scrimmage, the defense was on target.

After sophomore Dorian Bell recovered a fumble by redshirt freshman wide receiver Verlon Reed, he was hit hard by freshman quarterback Braxton Miller to end the play. The defensive players and coaches on the sideline were joking with, and yelling at, Bell, something Simon said is important for a defense.

“We were having a good time,” Simon said. “That’s the way defense should be: Just let loose and have fun.”

Konrad said it was a chance for him to see his teammates whom he has not seen in a while as he rehabs in Dublin, Ohio.

“It felt good to be on the sidelines again,” he said. “Obviously, this is not the way I pictured it being.”

Espinoza said he was excited to come back to Columbus.

“Every time I come back here,” he said, “it’s like home again.”

The Crew faced a huge task in stopping the Kansas City offense. Kansas City had scored more than one goal in three of its four games this season.

Columbus came into the game having not surrendered a goal in three previous contests.

Facing rain and winds that consistently blew at about 15 mph, Crew keeper William Hesmer said he knew it would not be easy.

“The wind was tough,” he said. “It was blowing straight into the north goal.”

Columbus came out on the attack first when midfielder Eddie Gaven’s shot on the edge of the 18-yard box sailed high over the crossbar.

sports Dezse’s 3-run triple drives OSU to victory todd a ver y Lantern reporter avery.82@osu.edu The Buckeyes got their revenge on Michigan State in game three, torching relief pitcher Tony Wieber for six runs in the seventh and eighth innings on their way to a 10-5 win.

After six innings that saw MSU (22-10, 6-3 Big Ten) up, 5-4, OSU loaded the bases with one out. Freshman first baseman Josh Dezse then came through with a three-run triple off the center field wall to give OSU the lead for good.

RBI singles by junior second baseman Ryan Cypret and Dezse ensured OSU’s victory and 2-1 series win. Dezse ended the game with 5 RBIs. “It’s nice to be a freshman and step in and help out,” Dezse said. “But as a team I think we played great Ohio State baseball today.”

OSU took an early lead in the first off RBIs by freshman center fielder Tim Wetzel and senior third baseman Matt Streng, but MSU scored five runs over the next four innings to take the 5-4 lead.

The sixth inning looked like it might be a costly one for the Buckeyes. Senior Dean Wolosiansky gave up a hit and then after getting two outs, overthrew Dezse at first in a play that would have ended the inning. Instead, the error allowed MSU’s Justin Scanlon to score, adding another run after a single that fell between three Buckeyes in left field.

OSU rebounded over the next three innings, and Wolosiansky’s two runs were the only ones given up by the bullpen.

“We all have to be ready to go anytime our name is on the board,” senior pitcher Theron Minium said. “I think we showed this weekend we’re solid, and the coaches have faith in us.”

Roller coaster season ends in success for freshmen Done and Treleaven finals were freshmen Kris Done and Jeff Treleaven and junior Ty Echard.

All four Buckeyes who competed in individual finals placed in the top eight for their event.

Wynn tied for eighth on the parallel bars, was eighth on high bar and took home the National Championship in rings.

Done took fifth on high bar, Treleaven placed third on vault and Echard placed second on the pommel horse.

Treleaven and Done said they were just happy to have made it to the individual finals their freshman year.

“I had nothing to lose,” Treleaven said. “There are a lot of juniors and seniors here, and they have four years of college experience compared to just one.”

Wynn and Done were the only two Buckeyes competing in the all-around to move on to Friday night’s finals.

First baseman j osh dezse swings at the ball during the buckeyes’ 10-5 win against michigan state on sunday.

Sophomore David Fathalikhani picked up the win for the Buckeyes, improving to two wins on the year. Freshman starter Greg Greve went five innings and gave up just three runs despite having nine hits against him.

The first two games of the series were much closer than game three.

OSU fell, 5-4, in game one after a leadoff home run by MSU in the top of the 10th inning.

It was a pitchers’ duel early as senior pitcher Drew Rucinski and MSU’s starter, Kurt Wunderlich,

scattered just three runs over the first six innings. The Spartans put three on the board in the seventh to go up, 4-2, before Dezse responded with a two-run home run in the eighth to tie the game.

It went scoreless until the MSU home run led off the 10th for a 5-4 lead. The Buckeyes had a chance to win in the bottom half with the bases loaded, but two straight strikeouts ended the game.

Game two saw another tight

“I was a little disappointed I messed up on the pommel horse,” Done said about his performance Thursday night. “But I still qualified for something (Friday) night.”

Also qualifying into the individual group Friday night were senior Sean Regan and freshman Misha Koudinov for the floor exercise, Echard on the pommel horse, Treleaven on vault and junior Mike Behles on rings.

The Buckeyes posted a total of seven top-ten scores in the six events Friday night.

Placing for OSU were Wynn, who placed first on rings, sixth on parallel bars, seventh on the high bar and fifth in the all-round; Treleaven, who placed seventh on vault; Echard, who placed fifth on the pommel horse; and Done, who placed 10th on the high bar.

Interim co-head coach Doug Stibel said he thought his team did well Friday night.

“It’s hard to get back up and perform,” he said, “but the guys stepped up and had good routines.”

Overall, the team said it was happy with the way it ended the season. “(This season) has been a roller coaster ride,” Done said. “But on the days it counted, we hit our routines.”

Homecoming from 1B

Only goal

notched by Robbie Rogers in 52nd minute Kansas City came back in the fifth minute with a shot by forward Kei Kamara, which deflected off defender Julius James.

Kansas City almost took the lead in the 28th minute when Kamara had a clear header toward the goal after a Kansas City free kick. Hesmer got his hands on it, making sure it did not reach the back of the cage.

After a 0-0 draw going into the locker room at halftime, the second half would bring the game’s lone goal.

In minute 52, Columbus midfielder Dilly Duka flicked a cross by midfielder Kevin Burns to the feet of midfielder Robbie Rogers, who sent a burner past the fingers of keeper Jimmy Nielsen.

Comments from 1B

Gee takes

his work seriously, not himself “I’m being more careful about what I say about sports,” Gee said. “University presidents, particularly of large universities, particularly of this institution, lose their First Amendment rights.”

Gee said his personality is to blame.

“I have fun doing what I’m doing,” he said, “and the minute that I wake up in the morning, if I’m not enjoying myself and having fun, then I’m going to get out of the business. That’s how I’ve survived for 30 years. It’s just a way for me to deal with issues.

“I take my work very seriously. I do not take myself very seriously. I never have, never will.”

OSU suspended Tressel for the first two games of the 2011 season and fined him $250,000.

Dezse from 2B

Buckeyes scored late run to win game 2 game, but this time it was OSU that got the late run to win the game, 9-8.

It started out rough for sophomore starter Brett McKinney. After a hit and two walks, he gave up a grand slam to MSU’s Torsten Boss to give MSU a 4-0 lead.

Both teams put up runs early, including a combined seven runs in the fourth. But OSU came out on top as DeLucia had a two-run single, giving OSU an 8-7 lead.

“He was in the right place at the right time,” Robert said.

Tom Heinemann, who entered in the 67th minute, brought about a spark that energized the team.

Within a minute, a Heinemann header sent midfielder Robbie Rogers screaming down the left sideline.

After cutting the ball back, Rogers sent it across the middle to a wide-open Gaven, whose rightfooter was saved by Nielsen’s leg.

Heinemann did it again in minute 82 when he dribbled down the left side, sent the ball across the middle to Duka, who laid it to midfielder Emmanuel Ekpo, whose shot was blocked.

Following the game, both father and son talked about how their teams fared.

“I told him he got lucky on this one,” Konrad said. “I am sure I won’t hear the end of it for a while now.”

Tressel later increased his own suspension to five games. Attorney Christopher Cicero emailed Tressel between April and June 2010 with information regarding several OSU football players making contact with the owner of Fine Line Ink tattoo parlor, Eddie Rife, who was under legal investigation for drugs.

Tressel kept the information to himself.

The NCAA suspended quarterback Terrelle Pryor and five other players on Dec. 23 for selling memorabilia to Rife and receiving discounted tattoos at the parlor.

Gee said his opinion of Tressel never wavered, despite the coach’s wrongdoing.

“Jim Tressel, I think, is a very fine person, and I have great faith in him as both a coach and an individual,” he said. “That’s the reason that we decided to suspend him and not do anything more.”

Defense from 1B

Returning starter

After the Spartans tied the game, 8-8, in the top of the sixth, Wetzel hit an RBI single in the bottom of the eighth. Junior Andrew Armstrong and senior Jared Strayer closed out the game and sealed the win for OSU. The Buckeyes’ next game is against non-conference Bowling Green at 6:35 p.m. Wednesday at home. Bowling Green (13-18, 7-4) is in second place in the East Division of the MAC. OSU will then travel to take on Penn State in a three game series starting Friday.

“This was a really big weekend against the team that was leading,” Minium said, “and now I think they are only one game up on us so we knew it was a really big game.”

Defensive back T ravis Howard looks to tackle running back DeVier Posey during spring football practice on April 5.

Orhian Johnson shows Buckeye youth how it’s done Junior defensive back Travis Howard has been impressive this spring, making big plays at the cornerback position, and he said his experience behind Chekwa and Torrence at the end of last season helped his progress in spring practice.

“It helped tremendously,” Howard said. “I feel like I knew a lot, and I feel like I had a lot of experience. So, coming into this spring my confidence level just went up, and it allowed me to make a lot of plays this year.”

Junior defensive back Orhian Johnson, a returning starter for the Buckeye defense, said he has seen a lot of promise from Howard this spring.

“I believe that he is one of our next corners,” he said. “If he keeps on the path, he could be one of the next great corners out of here.”

As a returning starter, Johnson has become a leader for the young Buckeye defense.

“I’ve been really trying to just go out there and make sure I can help out in any way necessary that the defense needs me,” Johnson said, “whether it be being vocal and telling someone something, or stepping in and making a play.”

Although the defense was impressive, Simon said there is still room for improvement before Saturday’s Spring Game.

“We’ve got to clean up a lot of stuff,” Simon said. “We’re gonna watch the tape, and then I’m sure as long as everyone does their one-eleventh, we’ll be all right.”

Johnson agreed.

“I hope we have no more injuries, and we just need to keep doing what we’ve been doing,” Johnson said, “keep learning and keep getting better.”

Coach Jim Tressel, DeVier Posey, Mike Adams and Solomon Thomas join Pryor and Herron on the five game suspension of the upcoming season.
