thelantern Background checks in ‘state of evolution’ JACK MOORE Lantern reporter moore.1732@osu.edu There are gaps in the background check process for Ohio State students and employees, administration and Human Resources officials said. Those gaps, which could apply to some students and most faculty, will be addressed in a discussion about campus safety at a Board of Trustees meeting Thursday. Background checks are used to “lower the odds” of violence on campus, said Martha Garland, vice president for Student Life, who will lead the discussion at the meeting. “But even perfect background checks don’t guarantee that someone won’t … do something terrible,” Garland said. The board discussion was prompted by the workplace shooting in March, she said, when a third-shift custodial worker shot and killed a supervisor, wounded another and then turned the gun on himself. A background check performed at the time the
shooter, Nathaniel Brown, was hired in 2009 failed to turn up a conviction for receiving stolen property. The background check system might be incomplete, Garland said, because in most cases, faculty members don’t get reviewed. But she said that would likely change as “step by step” MARTHA GARLAND more people are included in checks. The background check process “is in a state of evolution,” said Larry Lewellen, vice president for Human Resources, in an e-mail. “Over the past two years, we have significantly increased our background check requirements,” he said, “and today the majority of our staff positions require (a) background check.” Human Resources rules require that candidates for certain top-level administration positions, such as the president or provosts, undergo background checks.
Beyond that, it is up to individual departments, such as Dining Services or Housing, to decide whether to conduct background checks on other positions. Human Resources must approve the departments’ procedures. Some departments check all final candidates for all position openings, and some only check for positions “deemed to be ‘sensitive’ in nature, some of which may be required by law,” according to Human Resources documents. “We haven’t gotten to (faculty) yet,” Garland said. “But we’re moving in that direction.” The other possible gap involves the small number of student applicants who might be subjected to background checks. The OSU application form includes a question that asks if applicants have ever been convicted of a felony or have been the subject of judicial procedures at another university. If the record shows a propensity for violence,

Union flash mob dancers didn’t stop believing Video of OSU student, staff routine now a YouTube sensation
Unknowing students and visitors at the Ohio Union were bombarded May 3 by a mob of Ohio State students and staff members — a flash mob, that is. Dancing to the tune of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believing,” about 70 OSU students and staff members, including President E. Gordon Gee, Brutus Buckeye and Tracy Stuck, director of the Union, shocked the crowd with a surprise choreographed routine. Last week’s ambush had been kept a secret since the idea came up in December, said dancer Matt Fenstermaker. “We practiced one to two times a week and more as it got closer,” said Fenstermaker, a second-year in art education. “It all started with Jordan Davis.” People might recognize Davis’ name, as she recently ran against president-elect Micah Kamrass in the Undergraduate Student Government elections. “It was about December

TRAVIS KOZEK Lantern reporter kozek.2@osu.edu Missing the playoffs for the eighth time in the Blue Jackets’ brief nine-year history was a disappointment the team, but R.J. Umberger is using his break to head back to school. With time off, the former Buckeye All-American is back at Ohio State in pursuit of the college degree he began working toward nearly 10 years ago. “This is something I set out to do at the beginning, and I like to see things completed,” Umberger said. “There is
always life after hockey, and it helps me prepare for that.” The 27-year-old marketing major is no stranger to taking classes in the off-season. He managed to take online classes four of the last five summers. However, Umberger has left the comfort of his own home this spring and is back on campus. “Things have changed,” Umberger said. “The fact that I know I am older than everybody and I don’t know anybody, that is probably the biggest change.” Enrolled in Marketing 750 and 758, the Blue Jackets winger needs just three more

David Gergen, editor-at-large at U.S. News & World Report and a past adviser to four presidents, will be this year’s Spring Commencement speaker. “We are deeply honored to have David Gergen address our graduates,” Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee said in a press release. “No fewer than four presidents have depended upon his wise political analysis, broad historical understanding, and superb common sense. Without question, his insights at this time of great challenge and opportunity will enrich and enliven our Commencement ceremony.” Gergen spent time working for former presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and then became the director of communications for former President Ronald Reagan. He later served as a counselor to former President Bill Clinton on both foreign policy and domestic affairs. Gergen also served as an adviser to former President George H.W. Bush during his 1980 campaign for presidency. Although most of his political work has been with Republican administrations, Gergen said in a 1993 interview with The New York Times that he considers himself to be an Independent. Gergen wrote a best-selling book in 2000 on his political experiences, titled
“Eyewitness to Power: The Essence of Leadership, Nixon to Clinton.” From 1983 to 1994, Gergen was the editor of U.S. News & World Report. He is now the editor-at-large for the magazine. Gergen has also appeared on many television programs, such as “The Colbert Report,” “Anderson Cooper 360” and “The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer.” From 1984 to 1989, he was a political commentator with Mark Shields for the MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour on PBS. He now serves as a senior political analyst for CNN. DAVID GERGEN Today, Gergen is a professor of public service at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government and is also its director for the Center for Public Leadership. This won’t be Gergen’s first visit to OSU. In 2002, he gave a lecture on the future of leadership, and in 2007, he spoke to students at the Moritz College of Law. Gergen received his bachelor’s degree from Yale University in 1963 and his law degree from Harvard University in 1967. Spring Commencement will be held at noon on June 13 at the Ohio Stadium.

campus Tuition hike goes to vote RICHARD OVIATT Lantern reporter oviatt.3@osu.edu Two proposed tuition increases are expected to be made official Thursday when the Ohio State Board of Trustees votes at its May meeting. If passed, tuition would increase 3.5 percent Summer quarter, followed by another 3.5 percent increase Autumn quarter, meaning annual tuition would increase 7 percent, to $8,994, by autumn 2010. Factoring in other mandatory fees, such as the new Union fee, annual costs would be $9,420 for Ohio residents. University officials say the increase is necessary because of a decrease in funding from the state. “The university held off as long as possible in increasing tuition for our students and their families,” said Jim Lynch, director of Media Relations for OSU, in an e-mail to The Lantern. For the last two years, the state supported a tuition freeze for Ohio public universities. But state budget problems last summer led to cuts in university funding, and state lawmakers compromised by allowing universities to increase tuition 3.5 percent a year over the following two years. OSU held out on raising tuition most of this year, but because the raises are a “use it or lose it” type of allowance, the university deemed it necessary to raise tuition Summer quarter, which will count as this fiscal year’s allotted raise. The Autumn quarter raise will count toward next year’s raise. The increases will go to a vote before the
board’s Fiscal Affairs Committee, a nine-member group chaired by Jo Ann Davidson. The group also includes chair of the board Les Wexner. Davidson and Wexner were both members of the three-person subcommittee that unanimously supported the increases proposed by university officials in March. “All of the members of the board took a leap of faith when we approved a tuition freeze for the thirdstraight year,” Davidson said at the March meeting. “But the students that started here at the right time will have had no tuition increase for three years.” The subcommittee, tasked with setting tuition, called the March meeting so students would learn about the probable tuition hike as soon as possible, rather than waiting until this Thursday’s meeting. The increases were proposed by Bill Shkurti, former chief financial officer for OSU, and Provost Joseph Alutto. The subcommittee unanimously supported the proposal. Jason Marion, one of the student representatives on the Board of Trustees, is a member of the Fiscal Affairs Committee and will be one of nine who vote on the tuition increases. Marion, though not a part of the subcommittee’s March vote, attended the meeting and voiced his support for the increases. With three of nine votes seemingly locked up and no voiced disapproval from any of the other board members, it seems likely that the issue will pass Thursday. But Lynch wasn’t so quick to deem the vote a formality. “I would never want to speculate on what the Board will do,” he said. If passed, Lynch said the university would be

comfortable with what it sees as a justified and necessary tuition increase. “We believe that Ohio State is still a tremendous value — when compared to the tuition costs for other universities and their respective academic
rankings,” he said. “Even with this increase, Ohio State would still be cheaper than in-state schools such as Miami, Cincinnati, Bowling Green and Ohio University.”
Student smokes competition with award-winning invention MOLLY GRAY Lantern reporter gray.557@osu.edu When Trevis Kurz looked around at his surroundings last March, he knew he was representing Ohio State to people from all over the world. The commotion was incredible, the excitement was infectious and the competition seemed insurmountable. “There were 50,000 people,” Kurz said. “It was total chaos, I didn’t know what was going on that first day.” Kurz is not a five-star recruit on the men’s basketball team. He is a third-year in industrial design who placed first at the 2010 International Home + Housewares Show in Chicago March 14 to 16, where people from more than 32 countries were competing. Kurz, a transfer student from Toledo, won first place alongside a student from the University of Illinois in the Student Design Competition at the show. Each student received $2,500 for winning the competition. Kurz’s winning entry in Chicago was what he called the Sanas Smoke Alarm. Kurz had been assigned to the baby boomer generation and discovered that many people he talked to
had problems changing the batteries on their alarms. “I found out that a lot of people couldn’t even access their smoke alarms without a ladder, and so the whole premise for me was to design a smoke alarm that you could access without getting off the ground,” Kurz said. So he designed a model that works with an everyday broom handle, using a quickrelease spring to drop the alarm down the broom handle to eye level for battery changing and a face that acts as an “off button” that can be hit if the alarm sounds and there isn’t a fire. Kurz first started studying industrial design at the Art Institute in Pittsburgh. But after a few years, he realized he would have more opportunity at OSU than at a specialized school like the Art Institute. “I’m in a class now where there are two business students, one MBA, a mechanical engineer, a chemical engineer and a designer all working together on one project,” Kurz said. “You don’t have that opportunity anywhere else.” It was in a similar class at OSU that Kurz first started working on the project that took him to the housewares competition, which
challenges student designers to design product concepts that help people more efficiently perform everyday tasks, according to its website. Jamie Perin, a third-year and a classmate of Kurz, placed third. The International Housewares Association selected Kurz and Perin to attend the competition. Kayla Rosebrook and Emma Sanders, both third-years in industrial design, received honorable mentions at the competition. The University of Illinois was the only university to have more students place than OSU. While at the competition, Kurz was approached by several companies that wanted to license and produce his smoke alarm. But since returning to Columbus, he said the excitement has died down. “I don’t really know what, if anything, I’m going to do with it,” Kurz said. “People get really excited over the designs at show but don’t really pursue it after the fact.” Kurz will return to Chicago during the summer for an internship with Beyond Design, Inc., a company specializing in consulting with producers, and will travel to Germany this fall to intern with an industrial cleaning supply design company.

Philanthropic alumna donates $10,000 a year to offshoot of American Red Cross EMILY TRAMTE Lantern reporter tramte.2@osu.edu Ohio State alumna Erika Millet has found a new home in New York, where she can make a difference. Millet, 40, is a founding member of Tiffany Circle of the American Red Cross and co-chairwoman of the New York chapter. Tiffany Circle is a women’s organization dedicated to raising money to help people affected by national emergencies and disasters. There are more than 53 chapters across the U.S. that focus on local disaster efforts, while also raising money for the Red Cross’ global initiatives. “I’ve always really admired
the Red Cross,” Millet said. “I think most people do.” Millet got involved with the organization after attending the International Red Cross Ball with her husband. “While we were there, you could feel the passion from the speakers and the attendees,” she said. “I just wanted to be more involved.” Millet searched for volunteer opportunities, but she said she didn’t know exactly what she was looking for at first. “Then I learned about Tiffany Circle, which was perfect,” she said. To become a member of Tiffany Circle, women donate $10,000 per year to the cause. “Once you make your pledge of $10,000, you’re considered a member,” Millet said. “You pledge to make that every year,
but you’re not obligated to do that for any length of time.” All women are welcome to join if they can donate. “Tiffany Circle members include small business owners, executives, mothers, corporate counsel and major leaders from the entertainment, fashion and business sectors,” according to Parish Public Relations. Millet has become a lifetime member by pledging $100,000 over the next 10 years. Millet said most recruitment for Tiffany Circle is through word of mouth. Members host parties and invite potential members to introduce them to the cause. “It’s expanding pretty rapidly,” Millet said. “I think women just recognize how critical it is to
have the funding in order to respond to these local disasters and disasters abroad.” Tiffany Circle has beaten its goals each year since it was founded in 2007. To date, it has raised more than $15 million, according to a release by Parish Public Relations. “It’s the single most successful fundraising model of the Red Cross’ history,” Millet said. Members can also get involved with volunteer opportunities, such as going with the Red Cross to respond to local disasters. “I would love to do a
ride-along,” Millet said. “If you wanted to get more involved, there is pretty much an opportunity in whatever you would like to do.” Millet, originally from Mansfield, Ohio, said she values the time she spent at OSU, even after living for 10 years in New York. “I loved my time at Ohio State, the people from different countries and students from all walks of life,” she said. “I loved that it was so big. Lots of people think that it would have been overwhelming, but I loved that about Ohio State.”
She decided to move to New York while visiting with friends. “It just felt like home to me,” she said. “I knew I wanted to live there some day.” Millet is married and has a 14-month-old daughter. Other than being a mother, she focuses mostly on her work with Tiffany Circle and said she hopes it continues to grow. “I would love to be able to expand Tiffany Circle as much as possible,” Millet said. “Anything I can do to expand that network because the more members we have, the stronger the Red Cross is.”

Re-admitted students not asked background questions “sometimes that’s grounds for not admitting students,” Garland said. But returning students, who have been away from OSU for a period of time and are re-admitted to the university, are not asked those questions, Garland said. Background checks are only part of the larger issue of campus safety that will be addressed at the trustees’ meeting, she said. The presentation Garland will give is about the resources available to deal primarily with “distressed and disturbed individuals,” which could be faculty, staff or students, she said. Counseling programs and Crisis Assessment
Teams are “a network of people” that helps deal with those disruptive individuals who threaten violence. The discussion is to make more people aware of the programs, Garland said, not to say they need to be expanded. “We’re very well pleased with how they work,” she said. According to a Lantern report after the shooting, Brown was described as hostile by a supervisor after being given a poor performance review. Neither Garland nor Lewellen could discuss whether any of the resources or counseling teams had been used prior to the shooting in March. Garland said such information could be part of an ongoing police investigation. The board will discuss campus safety and the background check process at 4 p.m. Thursday at the Longaberger Alumni House.

when I was in the director of the Union’s office with another student when I showed a video of a flash mob in Belgium,” said Davis, a fourth-year in political science and leadership studies. “I proposed the idea of coordinating an impromptu dance to occur in the Union, and immediately we started brainstorming on how to make the vision a reality.” Coded e-mails and cryptic messages to a select few followed the initial decision to attempt the stunt, as Davis and others began recruiting for the event. Davis said many details were left out until the group convened in private. “The group grew slowly over time. We added new people each practice,” Davis said. “We practiced in multipurpose rooms of the RPAC before we had the Union and even had a practice in the Great Hall before the building’s grand opening. “After spring break, we began meeting two days a week on Thursday and Sunday evenings. We practiced secretly in different rooms of the Union and then our last rehearsal was held in the Great Hall from midnight to 2 a.m. the night before our performance,” Davis said. Concealing the impending performance wasn’t easy for the mob members, said dancer Casey Cross. “I would always look forward to Sunday and Thursday nights when we would have our practices,” said Cross, a third-year in actuarial science. “The only hard part about this was explaining to my friends that were not involved where I was continuously disappearing to on a regular basis. In the end, though, keeping it a secret definitely paid off.” Cross also said one of the mob’s goals was to

get 100,000 YouTube hits on the video of the dance. As of Monday, there were almost 1 million. “It is an indescribable feeling that we all get when we hear people talking about the flash mob and when we see people commenting about and reposting the link,” Cross said. Davis agrees that it is an overwhelming feeling knowing how popular the video has become. The term “flash mob” refers to a large group of people who collectively perform an act or routine in a public setting, then quickly disperse, with the intent to shock and surprise unknowing onlookers and passersby. It was the brainchild of the senior editor of Harper’s Magazine, Bill Wasik, who in 2003 organized the first successful one at a Macy’s department store in New York City. The mob congregated around a single rug claiming to be searching for a “love rug.” In an interview with Stay Free! magazine, Wasik said it gave people the “opportunity to confuse other people.” Thousands of people had the opportunity to confuse Oprah Winfrey in September 2009. They joined in a dance flash mob with the Black Eyed Peas at her Michigan Avenue block party in Chicago celebrating the start of her talk show’s 24th season. Flash mobs are not just confined to dancing. In fact, they are more commonly associated with odd behavior such as momentary freezing, as in the case at Philadelphia’s 30th Street Station on April 1. Hundreds came to stand in place for three minutes. As for a future OSU flash mob, Davis is keeping her information vague. “I can’t say if there will be another breakout performance in the future or not,” she said, “but I know there is a lot of excitement about planning another flash mob that is bigger and better.”

represent your country, but my degree is important, and I have mapped out a plan here and put it within reach for next summer if I took classes now.” Although classes, studying and exams are again part of his routine, Umberger said the “extracurricular activities” associated with college life aren’t on his agenda this time around. “I’m strictly here to get classes done,” he said. “As soon as I am done with class, I get back home as soon as I can. I don’t hang around the college atmosphere.”
Gulf oil spill threatens Louisiana coast MARK WASHBURN, GEOFF PENDER AND JENNIFER LEBOVICH McClatchy Newspapers MCT NEW ORLEANS — Authorities mounted a defense of Louisiana’s coastal wetlands from both air and sea Monday as an oil slick comprising thousands of square miles drifted within five miles of shore. Southeast winds were slowly pushing the oil toward the state’s coastal outlands, which jut deep into the Gulf. “We haven’t dealt with an oil spill, but we’ve dealt with enough hurricanes to be calm,” said Brennan Matherne, a spokesman for Lafourche Parish, about 60 miles southwest of New Orleans where hundreds of sandbags were being filled Monday. Booms were loaded aboard shrimping vessels and sent to string floating barriers along the fragile islands offshore. Helicopters were poised to dump sandbags on beaches, trapping whatever splashed ashore before it could foul the fragile wetlands that have yet to recover from Hurricane Katrina in 2005. A dozen dredges were readied to hurl bottom sand ashore in various spots along the coast, creating walls to contain the goo before it could contaminate the tangled swampland that makes up much of the Louisiana Gulf coast. As emergency managers on Louisiana’s coast steeled themselves for the oily sheens, the report back from officials on a Coast Guard flight over neighboring Mississippi on Monday was mostly good news — for now. The oil didn’t appear to have touched Mississippi beaches or moved into marshland, but the slick was drifting closer to the mouth of the Mississippi River. Rep. Gene Taylor, D-Miss, said a C-130 airplane had just sprayed a load of dispersant over the oil slick and “that appears to be helping.” About 30 boats stretched boom around the spill. “Nobody is happy about this, and everybody’s disappointed the dome did not work,” Taylor said. “But the bright spot in all this is that after another week, the oil is no closer to Mississippi. The islands looked beautiful, and if I’d had the day off, I would have loved to go swimming.” Taylor said: “Three weeks into this, it’s not on our barrier islands, not in the Mississippi Sound and not on our coast. Hopefully, our creator will continue to smile on us.” Among the biggest wild cards in the fight against the leak
— spewing 210,000 gallons of oil into the Gulf daily — is how quickly oil giant BP can find a new solution to stanch the flow. Attempts to contain the leak with a 78-ton dome failed on Saturday, rendering the box useless on the sea floor. The next best shot in a list of possible solutions offered by BP: a smaller “top hat” to move in place over the leak. “There’s a lot of techniques available to us. The challenge with all of them is, as you said, they haven’t been done in 5,000 feet of water,” BP Chief Operating Officer Doug Suttles told NBC’s “Today” show Monday morning. The “top hat,” originally designed as a part of the 78-ton containment dome, is on land being modified and could be lowered over the leak sometime midweek, said Mark Proegler, a BP spokesman at a command center in Robert, La. The larger dome failed when ice-like crystals, called hydrates, formed in the top, clogging the dome and making it too buoyant to form an effective seal. The smaller dome would be connected to a ship, so hot water could be pumped down as the dome is being placed to limit the formation of the hydrates. On Sunday, a top Coast Guard official suggested that experts might try to cork one of the two existing leaks by stuffing shredded tires, golf balls and other debris into the well’s failed blowout preventer. That option, called a “junk shot,” is another option being considered by BP. Executives of BP, the leaking well’s owner, said earlier that such a move could make things worse by damaging whatever part of the blowout preventer was still working. “I have every confidence we’ll find a good temporary solution,” Proegler said. “We certainly have every hope and prayer that we find a solution as soon as possible to mitigate the oil flow.” Eleven people died in the April 20 explosion that wracked the offshore drilling rig Deepwater Horizon and set off the massive leak. In the weeks since, drifting oil has spurred frenzied preparations from Louisiana to Florida to head off the threat to ecologically fragile marshlands and economically important tourist destinations. Those preparations continued apace on Monday, as forecasts from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration predicted winds would continue blowing the slick west, possibly pushing the oil along the Louisiana shoreline between Timbalier and Barataria bays on Monday and as far west as Point Au Fer Island by Wednesday.

Horoscopes by Nancy Black and Stephanie Clements, ©2010 Tribune Media Services Inc. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY You stick to deeply personal issues this year, making changes based on your ideals rather than on what others think. You seek greater independence in emotional arenas and accept greater responsibility at work. Power and position depend on social graces now. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. ARIES March 21 – April 19 Today is a 6 -- Talk about basics today. Your mind may be going in 100 directions, but your effort needs to be focused on one thing at a time. TAURUS April 20 – May 20 Today is an 8 -- You have more than enough great ideas. The challenge is to choose ones that accomplish the immediate goal yet also have far-reaching implications. GEMINI May 21 – June 21 Today is a 6 -- Imagination helps you put your best foot forward. Possible side effects include inventing problems where there aren’t any. CANCER June 22 – July 22 Today is a 5 -- Although the group awaits your decision, the contemplation of alternatives delays your arrival. Devise a careful presentation. LEO July 23 – Aug. 22 Today is a 6 -- Actions speak louder than words. Today, however, words carry the essence of an abstract message.
VIRGO Aug. 23 – Sept. 22 Today is a 5 -- Leave your favorite person in charge of today’s mysteries. That way you can handle practical matters for family members near and far. LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 6 -- Use your authority to assign tasks to others that you might ordinarily do yourself. This gives you a chance to evaluate the skills and methods others use. SCORPIO Oct. 23 – Nov. 21 Today is a 5 -- Your imagination works overtime to figure out how to balance your partner’s practical needs against fantasy. There are obstacles, but your ideas are great, and others agree. SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 – Dec. 21 Today is an 8 -- Your imaginative ideas may not mesh with the stodgy ideas of co-workers. Let an ally smooth over any discord. CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is a 7 -- Colleagues at work come off too sweet. Don’t listen to anything beyond the words. Raise the creative bar for everyone by lightening up the conversation. AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is a 6 -- Don’t expect any acknowledgment today. You’re not hiding anything, but you don’t need to brag. There will be time for that later. PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is a 7 -- A household member requires your presence all day. You may need to take a day off to handle appointments or to provide compassionate care.

Carving, digging, sanding, scraping and peeling aren’t standard words associated with canvas art, but that’s why Los Angeles artist Mark Bradford received a three-month residency at the Wexner Center for the Arts. Artists are constantly searching for ways to distinguish themselves from the norm, but Bradford wasn’t searching for a break when he dug up his passion. Now, that passion resides on Ohio State’s campus. According to New York Magazine, Bradford worked in his mother’s beauty salon before landing a spot in LA’s Deep River gallery in 1998. His experience at the salon extended creativity to his art by connecting racial politics to black women’s hair trends throughout several pieces. His focus took a turn in 2004 after Eungie Joo, the curator for a show at Redcat gallery in LA, suggested he start working on bigger pieces. Because bigger meant more money, Joo bought Bradford’s first canvas. Bradford’s large abstract collages are filled by his findings in random city sites. Paper is his favorite ingredient. Almost every person in the world can relate to paper in some way. People think of paper in different ways and its meanings are diverse, Bradford said. For one painting in particular, “James Brown is Dead,” Bradford stripped an entire wall of paper advertisements in South Central LA to use as his initial layer of the piece. The peeling and chiseling to remove the wall marked the end of an era, much like James Brown’s death. “James Brown’s career (spans) so many James Browns — the free James Brown, the crackhead James Brown, the social-civil rights James Brown, the performative Little Richard James Brown. I kept thinking, well which James Brown is dead,” Bradford said during a cell phone audio tour about the selected piece. Bradford was chosen to fulfill the Wexner Center Residency Award in Visual Arts because his works provide a refreshing examination of the United States economic pluralities characterized by social inequalities. The residency extends from Saturday to August 15, 2010. His exhibition inside the Wexner Center includes 10 years of his work plus the debut of recent pieces funded by his residency. Bradford compares his paintings to conflicts between individuals in an abstract manner.

BOTTOM le FT: ‘Method Man’ BOTTOM Righ T: ‘Wear The Bracelet’ “It’s like if there is a conflict between two people, then everyone in the room reenacts the conflict,” Bradford said. “After the 14th reenactment, what does (it) even mean?” The transition from each room in his exhibition projects a different mood for the spectator. Although the transition isn’t dramatic, the onlooker can feel subtle changes as the concept of each piece flows together. Bradford said he believes art depicts emotion, but it doesn’t actively try to project emotion from the artist to the painting. He doesn’t believe in the theatrical perspective
of art, as in trying to throw emotions into a piece, Bradford said. The Wexner Center will be holding Super Sunday this weekend from 12 to 5 p.m. There will be activities related to Bradford’s work. Admission is free. After his exhibition at the Wexner Center, his work will travel to the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, the Dallas Museum of Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.
Staunch bikers follow Scioto 226 miles ZAChARiAh JOnes Lantern reporter jones.2992@osu.edu Started as a father-and-son outing in 1962, the Tour of Scioto River Valley has grown into the largest bicycle touring weekend in the country. Within the cycling world, it is known simply by the acronym TOSRV. For years the tour has drawn riders from across
the country ranging from age 2 to 93. 2010 marked the 49th edition of the event, which included about 3,000 riders. The tour is sponsored by Columbus Outdoor Pursuits, a volunteer based nonprofit organization. On Saturday morning, the riders gathered at the Ohio Statehouse in unseasonably cold conditions to begin the ride. Riders were expected to prepare for any possible weather
conditions, which have ranged in the past from freezing rain to heat winds. The traditional total distance for the tour is 210 miles; however, construction detours this year stretched the trip to 226 miles. “I guess the Federal Stimulus had its effect on road construction this year,” said tour coordinator Charlie Pace jokingly. The tour ran along the Scioto River Valley between Columbus and
Portsmouth, where the riders stayed overnight before returning to Columbus along the same routeSunday. Riders were also given the option of participating in a half-tour, starting in and returning to Chillicothe. Although the tour route avoids the larger hills of southern Ohio, it certainly was not for the casual bike rider hoping to see the Scioto

conflict that goes back more than 100 years. “Voices From Israel/Palestine,” was created entirely by Talia Weisz, a graduate student at Ohio State pursuing her Master of Arts degree in comparative studies. Weisz began shooting the project about a year ago. The film strictly
features interviews with Israelis and Palestinians, filmed both in Columbus and in the Middle East, where Weisz spent time. “I met a huge variety of people. I met people living under vastly different circumstances providing vastly different perspectives on the conflict,” she said.
Weisz says that she interviewed around 60 people before getting her final product together. “I was looking for people who can tell compelling stories,” Weisz said. “Who can convey sort of a slice of their lives through narrative.”

Veteran playwright teaches craft to aspiring students MAll ORy TRele Aven Lantern reporter treleaven.4@osu.edu Notable playwright Andy Bragen has been sharing his expertise with Ohio State graduate students this spring. Bragen has been teaching a playwright course Wednesday and Friday afternoons. A Manhattan resident, Bragen has written many plays and taught at multiple colleges. He describes the life of a playwright as risky but rewarding. A graduate of Brown University’s Master of Fine Arts program in literary arts, Bragen has won many awards including the 2008 Clubbed Thumb Biennial Commission. This award was created to encourage the writing of plays that in addition to other guidelines consider the relationships between truth, power, history and personal responsibility. Bragen won the Biennial Commission for his play “Ranch Home.” Bragen’s class includes 10 Master of Fine Arts actors and one director. In this intimate class setting, they are set up in a circle to encourage open communication. In his class, Bragen has students write, read and discuss plays. “When they start writing their own stuff, it’s important that they hear
a play to fully understand what it is,” Bragen said. “Which is what makes sharing your plays with classmates so important.” Bragen’s class has a wide range of ages and experiences, but he finds it important to treat them with respect. “The nice thing about teaching this course is that graduate students are less distracted so it’s a lot easier keeping them focused,” Bragen said. He said he enjoys graduate students so much because they are choosing a career in theater and are extremely dedicated. While Bragen is teaching, he continues to AnDy BRAgen work on projects. One of his current projects is a play titled “This is my Office.” It will be performed in Providence, R.I., this summer, but he is also incorporating his OSU graduate students. “The play is written as a one person show, but I am hoping to use most, if not all, of the MFA actors here,” Bragen said. Bragen does not describe teaching as his true calling, but he does feel it is an important part of being a playwright. He considers himself almost a freelance playwright.
“I write plays and send them out to theaters,” Bragen said. “Sometimes I am commissioned, sometimes I teach class.” He describes his work as always having to work on a few things at once because there is a great deal of uncertainty in the field. But one aspect that does not vary is that he never writes a play with money in mind, Bragen said. Bragen said that “This is my Office” is currently his favorite play. He has written the play as a tribute to his father. “This play is remembering him and his checkered employment history. He was fired from every job he ever held,” Bragen said. “This play represents him and what he stood for. It’s very exciting.” Bragen says that he would describe himself as a local person. He is living in the same neighborhood he grew up in. He says that he truly values the sense of community. “I love that New York is very much about neighborhoods,” Bragen said. “I love the community and that’s why I am always writing about it.” In the future, Bragen said he hopes to continue to write, and to a lesser extent teach, as well. “I hope to live my life as an artist,” Bragen said. ”And also not starve,”

Book Club suggests… “ TheLonely
Polygamist”
by Brady Udall Golden Richards is a polygamist Mormon with four wives and 28 children. Keeping up with a family that size would be a struggle for anyone, but Richards is facing hardships and keeping secrets that make his hectic life even more difficult. Throughout Brady Udall’s “The Lonely Polygamist,” Richards faces the death of his young daughter, the stillbirth of a son, rivalry between his family members and the failing of his construction business. In an attempt to escape from his reality, Richards gets involved in an affair that only jeopardizes the future of his family more. While Richards is struggling with his situation, one of his wives begins doubting the polygamist lifestyle. And after having his birthday forgotten, one of Richard’s sons plans revenge on the whole family. “The Lonely Polygamist” follows Richards through his life crisis and the stress it puts on his family.

great weather lately, I was really mentally prepared for it to be like this outside,” he said about the cold and wet conditions. “You just have to find a way to push through it. I figured that out a while ago.” All hotels in the Portsmouth area were reserved well before the tour for Saturday night. Registered riders were ensured a dry, indoor floor spot to sleep on but were required to provide their own sleeping bags. The return to Columbus on Sunday saw similarly brisk weather. However, by early afternoon, conditions had cleared up into a dry and sunny spring day. The riders returned exhausted and exhilarated to the Statehouse in the evening following a successful Tour of the Scioto River Valley.

looks to show both sides of conflict Weisz, growing up in Canada, was raised Jewish and grew up in a home where she was only exposed to one side of the conflict. “I am not really interested in making any kind of political statement, making any kind of claims on about who’s right and who’s wrong,” she said. “But I’m interested in exposing people to stories that they might not have heard before.” After completing the project, Weisz now feels she has a better global understanding.
“It’s very common to talk about this conflict being between two sides,” Weisz said. “It’s not really like that. There are many, many sides. I think doing this project exposed me to the multiplicity of perspectives.” When she finished the project, the video found itself at the Wild Goose Creative. “It just seemed like a good place to have (the presentation),” Weisz said. “Because it’s sort of connected to a broader arts community, and I wanted as many people as possible to know about this.” “I want to look into publishing it or self publishing it so I can distribute it. People haven’t been able to stay for the whole thing and have been asking‘can I get a copy of this?’”

From freshman fumbler to OSU icon Running back Archie Griffin gets the nod as The Lantern’s Player of the Decade for the 1970s DOuG DilillO Lantern reporter dilillo.2@osu.edu If Ohio State was to construct a Buckeye-inspired Mount Rushmore on its Columbus campus, only one question would be asked. Would Archie Griffin sport the short hair he has now or the classic afro he had while becoming the nation’s only two-time Heisman Trophy winner? His relationship with OSU has spanned decades, first as a player and student, then assistant athletic director and now the president and CEO of OSU’s Alumni Association. The beloved Griffin is without much doubt the player of the 1970s but could even be the greatest player to ever suit up in Scarlet and Gray, said Jack Park, author of “The Official Ohio State Football Encyclopedia.” “There is no doubt about it,” Park said. “He is the player. Of all the great players to ever play at Ohio State, his impact on the program is probably the greatest. In my opinion, it is the greatest.” Although people remember Griffin for his football career at OSU, many don’t recall that his time in Columbus started with a moment that was less than Heisman worthy. When called into his first game as a freshman on Sept.
Player of the
Decade
1970s Archie Griffin
16, 1972, the overzealous Griffin botched his first carry and fumbled the ball back to the Iowa Hawkeyes. “To get in that game was truly an honor,” Griffin said. “It was in the fourth quarter, a couple minutes left to go in the game. I was a little bit too excited and I wasn’t paying enough attention to the fundamentals. You are always taught, even from a young age, to look the ball into your hands on a toss or pass and I was focusing my eyes on the giant hole I was going to run through. So when the ball was pitched to me, I had my eyes on the hole, I missed it and fumbled. I got taken out of the game and felt like I had blown my big chance.” He would not get the chance to make up for his mistake for another two weeks.

GRANT FREKING Lantern reporter freking.4@osu.edu 1. Duke Duke brings back two of the “Big Three” in Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith and adds heralded recruit Kyrie Irving and Liberty transfer Seth Curry, the younger brother of NBA star Stephen Curry. 2. Michigan State The Spartans will bring back seven of their top eight players, including former Big Ten Player of the Year Kalin Lucas and clutch performer Korie Lucious. 3. Purdue They lose Chris “human floor burn” Kramer, but bring back three seniors who have seen everything: JaJuan Johnson, E’Twaun Moore and a healthy Robbie Hummel. 4. Kansas State Frank Martin’s bunch would be higher if roadrunner Denis Clemente had another year. But a core of Jacob Pullen, Curtis Kelly and Jamar Samuels should suffice. 5. Pittsburgh The Panthers will be top dogs in the Big East thanks to the return of Ashton Gibbs, Brad Wanamaker and Gilbert Brown, along with a stellar recruiting class. 6. Villanova Losing offensive stalwarts Scottie Reynolds and Reggie Redding hurts, and until the Wildcats improve their offensive defense, they won’t win the Big East. 7. Kansas Despite the departures of Cole Aldrich, Sherron Collins and Xavier Henry, the Jayhawks will be just fine. Look for the Morris twins, Tyshawn Taylor and Thomas Robinson to shine. 8. North Carolina Easily the most talented group in the country, Roy Williams’ squad has to learn to play as a team. Keep an eye on freshman wing and No. 1 recruit Harrison Barnes. 9. Ohio State Don’t underestimate the significance of Evan Turner’s departure. However, don’t sleep on the growth of William Buford or the immediate impact of freshman Jared Sullinger. 10. Brigham Young Offensive dynamo Jimmer Fredette should put the Cougars back atop the Mountain West after finishing second last season.
MOLLY GRAY / Lantern designer
1. Duke If the returns of Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith weren’t enough, the defending champs add sharpshooting transfer Seth Curry and silky smooth point guard Kyrie Irving to the mix next year. The Blue Devils could be the first team to win back-to-back titles since Florida in 2006-07. 2. Purdue The Boilermakers could be the class of a strong Big Ten with the return of JaJuan Johnson, E’Twaun Moore and Robbie Hummel. A Sweet 16 run without Hummel made Purdue even more seasoned heading into the upcoming year. 3. Michigan State The Spartans surprised many with their run to the national championship game two years ago and shocked even more when they reached the Final Four this March. So long as Kalin Lucas makes a prompt recovery from a torn Achilles’ tendon, MSU should be among the nation’s best. 4. Ohio State The departure of Player of the Year Evan Turner leaves OSU with a gaping hole at point guard, one that one of the nation’s top recruiting classes might not be able to fill. Still, the Bucks will have a bevy of dynamic scorers and perhaps the country’s top freshman, forward Jared Sullinger. 5. Brigham Young Guard Jimmer Fredette should be in the discussion for Player of the Year, and the Cougars gained invaluable experience after advancing past the first round in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1993. 6. Kansas State Losing Denis Clemente hurts, but guard Jacob Pullen and an array of athletic big men should keep the Wildcats near the top of the polls. 7. Illinois An underachieving team the last few years, Bruce Weber’s Illini welcome back potential Big Ten Player of the Year Demetri McCamey to lead a balanced, quick group in Champaign. 8. Pittsburgh A versatile, scrappy bunch led by Ashton Gibbs and Brad Wanamaker could be the cream of the Big East crop. Jamie Dixon always has the Panthers near the top of the conference. 9. Kansas The fact that the Jayhawks crack the Top 10 despite losing Cole Aldrich, Sherron Collins and Xavier Henry to the NBA, shows the magnitude of the upset Northern Iowa pulled in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Brothers Marcus and Markieff Morris should carry the load down low. 10. Gonzaga Elias Harris might be the best player most people have never heard of. The Bulldogs will have the size and strength to out-muscle most of their West Coast Conference opponents.

Running back rushed for more than 100 yards in 31 consecutive games

In practice, Griffin was the fifth-team running back, so the chance he would touch the field against North Carolina was unlikely. Luckily for Griffin, coach Woody Hayes was frustrated with the Buckeyes’ seven-point deficit and called the freshman’s name. “I was so shocked,” Griffin said. “Coach Hayes grabbed me by the shoulder pads and told me to go in, and I went running onto the field, and my teammates were calling me back. I was so excited, I had forgotten my helmet. I couldn’t believe he had meant for me to go into the game, but when I got myself together, the lord really blessed me. He gave me holes to run through, and I ended with 239 yards.” At the time, 239 yards was the OSU record for most yards in a game and it was set by a 5-foot-9-inch, 180-pound freshman who had previously fumbled and forgotten his helmet. Griffin called the game a “miracle” in his life and said he remembered praying the night before. As the fans in attendance gave him a standing ovation, it was the springboard moment for one of college football’s most illustrious careers. The running back from Eastmoor High School would go on to win every major award possible in college football, including two Heisman trophies, two Big Ten Player of the Years, as well as start in four consecutive Rose Bowls. In his career, which spanned from 1972 to 1975, Griffin had a streak of 31 consecutive games in which he rushed for more than 100 yards. Park said that was made possible by his teammates, who were willing to work hard for Griffin because he was so team-oriented, one of his greatest qualities. Although Griffin attributed his success to more of a “right place, right

time” theory, Park said Griffin had a special blend of all the right things, both mentally and in terms of talent, to be the kind of player OSU fans might never see again. “I think it’s his character,” Park said. “He is a man of tremendous character and integrity. To me, Archie hasn’t changed a bit. He is still the same modest guy I met some 30-plus years ago. That is part of his character and part of his modesty. He always kept his head on straight and I don’t think that was ever a problem for him.” Players who perform up to the level Griffin did, especially so early in their careers, tend to have unreasonable expectations put on their shoulders. Griffin, however, said he never felt those expectations because no one expected more from No. 45 than he did of himself. “I probably put more pressure on myself than anybody else,” Griffin said. “Coach used to have this saying, ‘You’re either getting better or you’re getting worse, you are never at the same level.’ I truly believe that. I believe it in a lot of situations to be true.” Griffin said Hayes has had an impact on his life that has gone further than just football. His “pay-it-forward” mentality was something that Griffin took to heart and has tried to convey in his own life since having that instilled
in him from Hayes more than 30 years ago. “I think it left a lasting impression with a lot of us,” Griffin said about how much Hayes cared about people. “It certainly did with me. As I look around and see some of the former players, guys who played before and even after me, I see guys who are involved, giving back to their communities. I think Woody planted that seed in our minds. “Whether you play football or work on a job, leaders are important. There is a saying, ‘They don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care,’ and Woody taught us to care about people.” Along with Hayes, Griffin is one of the most iconic figures in OSU history. He has become a symbol of triumph, hard work and perseverance to fans and alumni alike, Park said. “I don’t know that there is a way to calculate the value that Archie Griffin has brought to the Ohio State University,” Park said. “I don’t think there have been many people who have done as much as he has at that place. He is just very, very valuable to the university.” It’s clear that he is beloved by the university, its alumni, fans and students, but more importantly it seems that the feeling is mutual. “I’m honored that I am still working here at The Ohio State University,” Griffin said. “That in itself is a wonderful thing. When you consider the fact that I was born at University Hospital, played my college football here in Ohio Stadium and most of the days of my working life have been spent here at The Ohio State University, where I spent 19 years in athletics and the over six years I have now spent here (with the Alumni Association). “Ohio State is a huge part of my life and I am very thankful to Ohio State, and I like to believe it has been a great relationship. I love this university and I try to show that in many ways. It’s been great and I am thankful I have had the opportunity. It’s been a blessing.”
As a freshman, Archie Griffin tied the Osu all-time record for rushing yards in a game.

But batters facing the 5-foot-10-inch freshman might not feel welcome because Nichols has 128 strikeouts. Nichols currently holds a 21-2 record for the Ohio State softball team. The old record for a rookie was 16 wins, as Nichols surpassed former All-American OSU pitcher Kim Reeder and Netherland Olympian Kristi DeVries. “At first, I actually didn’t know what the record was until after I beat it,” Nichols said. “Maybe that helped. But I try not to focus on that because I can be a lot better than I am.” Nichols came to OSU battling an improper recovery from surgery on a torn meniscus in her left knee. “It was in the middle of my high school season, so the day I got cleared I went and played a doubleheader, which was not the smartest thing to do. Definitely not,” Nichols said. After a short while at OSU, her knee was “good to go,” she said. But when the Scarlet and Gray headed down to Florida for a tournament at the beginning of the season, Nichols faced another injury. “My back started to really hurt and all I thought was that I had a really bad pinched nerve,” Nichols said. “But my rib was out of my place.” Shortly after Nichols’ rib was popped back in, she blamed her clumsy demeanor for the reason she was wearing a boot on her ankle a few weeks back. “What’s really funny is that I never get hurt, but once I got knee surgery it’s been bam, bam, bam,” she said. Although Nichols said she expected to be a regular freshman and never expected to be doing the things she’s doing now, assistant coach Erica Beach thought otherwise. “A lot of people look past their freshman year and don’t expect great things, but I expected her to make an immediate impact like she has,” Beach said. And Nichols has done just that. Currently on a 10-game winning streak, the freshman pitcher has a 1.86 ERA with more than 160 innings pitched. Nichols had a win against the

t op five storylines for 2010 – 11 ZAcK Meisel Sports editor meisel.14@osu.edu
1. Duke on quest for a repeat Florida won consecutive championships after its core of Joakim Noah, Al Horford and Corey Brewer returned. Duke brings back Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith while adding several key parts. The Blue Devils won’t fly under the radar as they did last season. 2. Big Ten on top? Purdue, Michigan State, Ohio State and Illinois could all contend for the conference crown and be viable Final Four threats. Much could depend on the recoveries that MSU’s Kalin Lucas and Purdue’s Robbie Hummel make from serious, season-ending injuries. 3. Kentucky kittens The early departures of freshmen John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins weren’t surprising, but Eric Bledsoe and Daniel Orton leaving prematurely for the NBA leaves John Calipari’s crew young and undermanned. But as Coach Cal always does, he reloaded, adding top recruits Brandon Knight and Enes Kanter. 4. Replacing Turner The Buckeyes will have as much talent as any team in the nation. How all of that ability meshes on the court, however, will determine how much success OSU has. Thad Matta will have a number of swingmen to filter into the lineup, but perhaps no point guard to replace Evan Turner. 5. Butler back? The Bulldogs lost Gordon Hayward to the NBA Draft, but they return Shelvin Mack and Matt Howard, key pieces to Butler’s championshipgame run. Brad Stevens’ bunch should be the class of the Horizon League, and another deep tournament run isn’t out of the question.

Melanie nichols throws a pitch toward home plate during the first game of a doubleheader against Michigan on April 28. t he teams split the two games, with Osu winning the first contest 5-3 and the wolverines winning the second game 4-3. Michigan Wolverines, who were ranked No. 2 in the nation at the time. “On the mound, she’s mentally tough. She brings confidence to the pitching circle,” Beach said. “And off the field, she’s a really great chemistry player. People like to be around her.” That mental toughness and confidence have definitely worked for Nichols, who has thrown 15 complete games. “She focuses on being great in the game. She practices like she plays,” Beach said. Although Nichols has said she has much to improve on, it’s not only this year that she’s expected to make an impact. Coach Linda Kalafatis said she knows Nichols will be a contributor all four years. “We knew that Mel had the chance to be maybe one of the best pitchers here. She’s got the potential depending on how hard she wants to work for it,” Kalafatis said. “In the same
respect, did I think we’d get to the point where she’s 21-2? No, I guess I never thought of it in those kind of numbers. But you know, winners get records but teams win games.”
Five players to watch in 2010 – 11 GrAnt FreKinG Lantern reporter freking.4@osu.edu
Jimmer Fredette, senior guard, BYU Fredette averaged 22 points per game and shot a blistering 44 percent from beyond the arc last season. If he puts up those numbers again, the Cougars will be a top 10 team. Robbie Hummel, senior forward, Purdue Purdue’s Final Four hopes were derailed when Hummel tore the ACL in his right knee in February. But when healthy, this do-it-all forward is a matchup nightmare.

Demetri McCamey, senior guard, Illinois Now that Evan Turner is gone, Big Ten Player of the Year is McCamey’s to lose in 2010-11. McCamey’s Fighting Illini are a potential Final Four team. Kyle Singler, senior forward, Duke The Final Four’s Most Outstanding Player surprised many by returning to school, but he loves college and the Blue Devils could repeat as National Champions. Jared Sullinger, freshman forward, Ohio State Old school basketball enthusiasts will love Sullinger’s game. The 6-foot-9inch, 260-pound behemoth has 3-point range and an array of post moves.
