thelantern Attacks on OSU e-mail rise After the switch from Webmail to Buckeye Mail, OSU has less control over the e-mails students receive

BRICE YOST Lantern reporter yost.97@osu.edu Criminals are targeting Ohio State e-mail accounts, said Shawn Sines, a university spokesman with OSU’s Information Technology Security.

OSU e-mail accounts are targeted because they contain a lot of personal information. Also, the population is so broad that it is difÿcult to protect and educate it, Sines said.

Phishing attacks, attempts to steal information from e-mail recipients, are the most common.

Controversial play comes to Thurber weather

5A

Although some Ohio State students seemed disappointed that our rivals up north managed to book President Barack Obama as their commencement speaker, others might not have been too upset.

Some, like those at Campusreform.org, say he’s just another liberal commencement speaker.

DAVID GERGEN CampusReform.org, an organization geared toward helping conservative activists ÿght leftist bias on college campuses, published a growing list online of this year’s commencement speakers for more than 400 college campuses. According to the list, the majority of college commencement speakers are liberal. In fact, the ratio of liberal to conservative commencement speakers is about 2-to-1.

In a news release last month about the list, Morton Blackwell, president of the Leadership Institute and founder of CampusReform.org, said the bias isn’t fair to right-wing students.

At the time of the news release, the ratio of liberal speakers to conservatives was 4-to-1.

“Conservative students are forced to support their schools’ selection of liberal graduation speakers as the college administrations take one last

Does OSU follow the national trend of a 4-to-1 liberal-to-conservative ratio?

opportunity to spread their leftist bias,” Blackwell said.

The names of those on the list that the website says have expressed “opposition to limited government” are in blue, and those who have expressed support for conservative policies are in red. According to the list, nearly 50 schools have booked liberals to speak at their commencement, while about 20 schools have booked conservative speakers.

However, the majority of speakers on the list have no known political afÿliation. More than 300 speakers aren’t classiÿed as left-wing or right-wing by the website’s list. Their names are listed in gray.

The list links each liberal speaker to another Campus Reform site that gives evidence of the speaker’s left-wing status and information about how to protest that speaker.

year’s commencement speaker for University of Tennessee at Knoxville, describes how he invented “much of the alarmist hysteria now surrounding the ‘climate crisis,’” and encourages students to create a ° yer to pass out at commencement that informs the attendees “of the truth about Gore and his ‘science.’” The page suggests handing the ° yers out to older attendees, such as parents and grandparents, because the site says they are likely to be more conservative than students.

Nonetheless, Megan Swillinger, a graduating fourth-year in international studies and political science, said the liberal-to-conservative ratio makes sense.

“I would assume there are more liberal than conservative speakers, just given that colleges are stereotypically liberal hotbeds,” Swillinger said.

David Gergen, OSU’s commencement speaker, has yet to be added to the list, but probably will not be someone the site encourages students to protest because of his extensive political work with both parties, said Bonnie Kristian, communications manager of CampusReform.org.

In the end, Swillinger said she doesn’t think it matters if the commencement speaker is for the right or left.

“I want a speaker that inspires me and empowers me on the day when I’m essentially joining the real world,” Swillinger said. “It doesn’t matter to me if that person is liberal or conservative as long as they make graduation memorable.”

New USG leaders hold ‘office hours’ on the Oval They can be found once a week sitting behind a booth with USG promotional items, such as T-shirts and pamphlets, to give to students who take advantage of their “ofÿce hours.”

Kamrass and Pyle were inaugurated May 5 and held their ÿrst ofÿce hours May 11. They spent two hours on the Oval and were able to speak with about 40 students, said Kamrass, a third-year in political science.

“Since the weather was less than ideal, we expect this number to rise in the coming weeks,” he said.

Problems often arise that require legal advice, and it’s no different for students.

Ohio State is promising to offer more help with these types of problems in the future.

The Board of Trustees passed a proposal Friday for a new, expanded student legal services program.

Beginning fall 2011, OSU students will have the option to pay an annual fee of $40 to receive legal advice and representation for a variety of issues.

The Student Housing Legal Clinic already provides advice and representation regarding landlord-tenant issues.

But students who choose to enroll in the new legal services program can receive guidance about issues including criminal misdemeanors, consumer transactions, uncontested domestic matters, conversion of property and simple document drafting.

The program will also provide outreach and education to students regarding their legal rights and responsibilities.

It does not include issues involving felonies, student vs. student matters, actions between students and OSU, or actions between students and law enforcement ofÿcers.

The only cost students would be required to pay in addition to the $40 fee would be court costs.

Thousands of world-renowned scientists will visit the Olentangy River Wetland Research Park for a conference.

OSU to host international ecology conference in 2012 ERIC EASLEY Lantern reporter easley.28@osu.edu Ohio State will host the EcoSummit, “the environmental equivalent of getting the Olympics,” said Jerry Tinianow, director of the Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission.

The Planning Commission is organizing the international ecology conference, or EcoSummit, which will focus on restoring the environment.

One of the conference’s other organizers is William Mitsch, director of the Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park and an environmental resources professor at OSU. In fact, Mitsch was one of the ecology journal editors who organized the ÿrst International EcoSummit in 1996.

The group organized the conference series to promote the use of the natural and social sciences in policy-making.

The upcoming conference will be the fourth in the series. At the previous conference in Beijing in 2007, nearly 1,400 environmental scientists from 70 countries met.

But this fourth conference will take the series in a new direction.

“We’re going to have a ‘ÿx the planet’ theme as opposed to a ‘study the planet’ theme,” Mitsch said.

Li Zhang, the Wetland Research Park’s assistant director, echoed Mitsch’s remarks.

“The environment has become a big issue,” Zhang said. “We hope to combine engineering and ecology to ÿx problems.”

The summit will include a week of presentations in addition to environmental displays such as stormwater gardens, solar energy displays and stream and river restorations.

Trips to areas of ecological restoration, such as the Florida Everglades, are arranged for before and after the conference.

Mitsch announced details of the conference, which will take place from Sept. 30, 2012 to May 5, 2012, at a Moonlight on the Marsh event at the Wetland Research Park.

Mitsch sees his work at the park as related to the theme of the conference.

Wetlands are important because of their functions in cleaning and retaining water, preventing ° oods and providing a habitat and food source for a wide variety of species.

The park studies how wetlands function so that creating and restoring these ecosystems becomes possible.

The Wetland Research Park has been designated a Wetland of International Importance.

“Located in a state that has seen more than 90 percent of its historic wetland base drained, the site contains riverine marshes that were once typical but are now rare,” said Dale Hall, director of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. “The site is also important for its signiÿcant wetland ecotourism and outreach within an urban community where few wetlands remain.”

As part of this outreach, the park has many

events open to the community. The park gives tours, hosts educational talks and offers classes through the university.

Those who want a more hands-on experience can volunteer at the park.

OSU students and local citizens help out by sampling water, watching birds and planting vegetation.

Students often volunteer for job experience, Zhang said, but others volunteer because they enjoy helping the park.

Free food, fireworks and football tickets — it’s the ‘Best Day of Your Life’ JENNA WALDO Lantern reporter waldo.15@osu.edu Who needs stress? Today is the best day of your life.

That’s what Ohio Staters, Inc., wants students to know not only about today, but every day.

The third annual “Best Day of Your Life” campaign is happening all day throughout campus. Ohio Staters, Inc. has partnered with REACH and Buckeye Campaign Against Suicide to offer freebies to students while bringing mental health awareness to the forefront of their minds.

“We’re urging students to remind themselves and think about what really makes them happy,” said Andrea Jimenez, co-chair for the Best Day campaign and a fourth-year in ÿnance. “We’re encouraging them to keep those memories alive and appreciate life for the little things.”

Suicide is the second-leading cause of death among college students and nearly half of all college students report having feelings of depression. But what many college students don’t realize, and what Ohio Staters is trying to promote, is that more than 80 percent of these cases can be treated.

“There’s a deÿnite stigma around mental health awareness, like, ‘Oh, you’re going to see the shrink?’” said Alainna Ipjian, co-chair for Best Day and a thirdyear in nursing. “People think they can cure it themselves, but sometimes it’s deÿnitely an issue that needs treatment.”

The ÿve co-chairs of “Best Day” began planning the campaign at the end of Autumn Quarter and will be joined by more than 75 volunteers today.

Disc jockeys, free hot dog stations and free lemonade stands will be scattered throughout campus. There will also be free ice cream at the Ohio Union

and free “comfort food” at North and Kennedy commons, according to the Best Day press release.

If that isn’t enough free stuff, volunteers will be driving “Swag Mobiles” around campus to surprise students with different prizes, such as neon-colored sunglasses, beach balls and even football tickets.

But Ohio Staters want students to know that it is not all about free things. With every giveaway a student receives, there will be literature given out about mental health awareness, as well. There will also be counselors available on the Oval from the Ofÿce of Student Life.

“There are other projects that focus on just a fun-ÿlled day and that’s great, but I’m most proud that we get to do both,” Jimenez said. “We get to have a fun-ÿlled day, but then we’re also spreading this really important message.”

Ohio Staters is also responsible for prominent campus

projects such as Light up the Lake, the project that strings holiday lights around Mirror Lake, and the “Best Fans in the Land” campaign.

“Ohio Staters, Inc., is a group of 36 students and 14 faculty/ staff at OSU who are devoted to promoting the welfare and traditions of our university through unique service projects to improve the campus area and

improve life at Ohio State,” said Hans Voss, president of Ohio Staters and a third-year in political science.

Voss said that being a part of Ohio Staters has taught him the most valuable lessons he has learned in college and has allowed him to meet people who have become his closest friends.

For more information about the organization, visit staters.osu.

edu. Interviews are held once a quarter for prospective members.

“Best Day” will conclude with a message from the USG president and a pyrotechnics display on the South Oval. This ÿnal event will begin at 8:15 p.m., and ÿreworks will start at 9 p.m.

The New Quantum Age The Ohio State University Department of Physics presents the

48th Annual Smith Lecture Quantum theory was essentially completed 80 years ago. Within 20 years of its birth, quantum theory had provided rigorous foundations for atomic physics and chemistry, for condensed matter physics and materials science, and for nuclear and particle physics. Within 40 years, quantum mechanics had elevated cosmology from metaphysics to hard science and spawned integrated electronics, lasers, and fiber optics. The global economy is one consequence of these advances; the transformation in our personal lives is another. Today, we are in what could be called a new quantum age, characterized by the ability to control and manipulate individual particles and to actually execute hypothetical “thought experiments.” We can no more anticipate the consequences of these developments than the founders of quantum mechanics could have anticipated the consequences of their creation.

Hackers used Webmail to attack new Buckeye Mail system the new Buckeye Mail system, OSU has less control of what students get in their inboxes, Sines said.

The new Buckeye Mail system, which is a Microsoft system, will report larger problems, but it is difÿcult for OSU to track what happens in the accounts the rest of the time, he said.

Those trying to solve the problem are always playing catch-up.

“It is kind of like the cat-and-mouse game. We need to keep changing the rules as they change the messages they send out,” said Richard Wofford, a spokesman for the Ofÿce of the Chief Information Ofÿ cer.

Kelly Chambers, a fourth-year in journalism and psychology, has been the vicim of at least a dozen phishing attacks since she began at OSU in 2008.

Chambers has received e-mails asking her to send her password and threatening to shut down her e-mail account. She has never responded and her account is still active.

“I noticed that (the e-mails) were coming from osu.edu e-mail addresses,” Chambers said in an e-mail.

The old Webmail system remains active even though OSU has switched to the Buckeye Mail system.

Hackers, who have effectively phished information from students, faculty and staff, have been able to use the old Webmail system to send attacks, Sines said.

The university has put a hold on all e-mails being sent from the Webmail system as a step to stop the spam and phishing attacks, according to an e-mail on May 6 from the Information Technology Service Desk.

Viruses have consistently been a problem OSU, according to a 2009 poll of 2,104 faculty members, staff members, graduate students and undergraduate students combined.

Viruses affected 29 percent of undergraduates and one in four graduates in 2009. One in ÿve staff members and 16 percent of faculty have been victims of viruses, according to the poll.

As a result, students will no longer be able to send messages from the old system.

Many people have grown wary of e-mail attachments, one way computer viruses are spread.

One attack strategy is when there is an embedded link in an e-mail, Sines said.

The link misrepresents where it goes. This can

to be posted on USG website

The Oval ofÿce hours will vary weekto-week “so we can reach out to as many students as possible,” said Pyle, a third-year in business.

They will market their hours on a new USG website that will be available in the summer or fall. They will also announce the date and times of their Oval visits in the Student Organization Insider and on Buckeye Net News.

At their ÿrst ofÿce hours, many students spoke to them to ÿnd out what USG is all about.

“Far too many students are unaware of who we are and what we do, and one of my primary goals is to ÿx this,” Kamrass said.

Students also voiced opinions on the semester transition process and the possible requirement to live on campus two years.

Some students expressed their feelings about the university’s construction projects and the many trees being cut down.

“We love to hear from any student who has questions about issues at the university or suggestions of how USG can help solve these issues,” Pyle said.

Kamrass and Pyle said they also want students to share their OSU experiences and perspectives so the pair can help represent as many students as possible.

Whether it’s venting frustrations or voicing excitement, the USG leaders said they want to make sure they are being responsive to students’ needs.

“I thought it was weird at ÿrst for them to be in the Oval, but it makes sense, and they’re easy to ÿnd,” said Katie Heffernan, a secondyear in geography. “I have questions I’d like to ask and I would never ask them if they were in an actual ofÿce.”

This is the main reason Kamrass and Pyle wanted to be more creative with their student interaction.

USG President Micah Kamrass and Vice President Brad Pyle will hold Oval ‘office hours’ this spring.

“We should not expect that students will bring their issues to us,” Pyle said. “Instead, we must seek out students.”

Although some students think their Oval visits are a good idea, others wonder about the weather conditions.

Kamrass assures students they will be on the Oval every week, and they will plan their ofÿce hours around the weather. They will continue next year and plan to deal with Winter Quarter ofÿce hours when the time comes.

Kamrass and Pyle have spent the past two weeks putting together their USG cabinet team.

“A big goal of ours was to expand the representation of students we have in our cabinet, for the same reasons we tried to create new ways to listen to students,” Kamrass said. “We want as many perspectives as possible.”

USG received 102 cabinet member applicants — twice as many as last year. After an interview process, 11 directors and about 70 associate directors were chosen.

Legal program

proposed by USG two years ago It should be stressed that any student who does not want to pay for the program does not have to, said USG President Micah Kamrass.

“It’s allowing students the freedom to choose. If they don’t think it’s going to be a good use of their money, they can opt out,” he said.

The Student Housing Legal Clinic sees about 1,000 to 1,200 students annually and frequently gets requests for help in areas other than housing.

“We have had requests for criminal cases, domestic cases, contract issues and assistance in drafting documents,” said Nicole Hall, director of the legal clinic. “I deÿnitely see a need for an expanded legal program like this at Ohio State.”

Under the new plan, the legal clinic will grow from its current staff of two attorneys to at least six attorneys and 16 other employees, including three to six undergraduate assistants.

USG proposed an expanded, optional student legal services program about two years ago, with the support of the Council on Student Affairs and the University Senate Fiscal Committee.

result in malware, or malicious software, being downloaded onto the victim’s computer.

Unexpected e-mails from friends might not be as innocent as they seem. In fact, they might not be from a friend at all.

A link to a video might actually be a link to a virus.

“All it takes is one of your friends not thinking and getting compromised,” Sines said.

It might be inconvenient, but calling or texting friends to see if they actually sent the video link might save a lot of trouble.

Students, faculty and staff should never give away their passwords.

“There’s one thing that no legitimate e-mail from OSU … will ever do — and that’s ask you for your password,” Sines said.

OSU administrators do not need students to tell them their passwords because they have other ways of getting students’ information.

Another issue is that current undergraduate students might be graduate research assistants in 10 years and never change their account. Because they gain access to more information, their accounts become more valuable to criminals, Sines said.

Those who have questions about the legitimacy of an e-mail request can always go to 8help, the IT Service Desk, Sines said.

Students are never forced to change their passwords, but it is not a bad idea to do so, he added.

OSU’s e-mail system is watching for spam and viruses.

All e-mails go through OSU’s spam and virus protection before they go to Buckeye Mail, Wofford said in an e-mail.

But some dangerous messages get through.

Spam, or e-mails sent in bulk to advertise or solicit, can be annoying, and some are malicious.

The spam e-mails promise rewards but are usually phishing for information or fraudulently trying to solicit money.

“I get this stuff from time to time,” said Tiffanie Chalfant, a fourth-year in communication. “I typically just don’t open them and if I do, I delete them.”

As long as there has been an e-mail system, attacks have been a problem.

But the attacks have become more sophisticated because they are inexpensive and fairly easy to execute.

Most of the time, the attacks can be de° ected if people think before responding.

It really comes down to common sense, Sines said.

During Autumn Quarter, Kamrass and Pyle will do a recruitment push for all undergraduate students interested in USG, not just freshmen.

“Brad and I ÿrmly believe there’s a place for everyone in USG, for any student who wants one,” Kamrass said.

They have also been meeting with administrators from different organizations and departments to develop relationships and give student input on the projects, such as the semester transition.

On Friday, the OSU Board of Trustees approved the Student Legal Services Clinic, a USG initiative the organization has been pushing for two years. Although Kamrass and Pyle did not propose this clinic, they will be working throughout the year to get the service ready for students. The clinic will be available in autumn 2011.

Kamrass and Pyle will hold this week’s ofÿce hours from noon to 2 p.m. Thursday.

an expanded legal program to assist students with issues that might otherwise compromise their academic careers.

“The goal is to provide our students with as much support and assistance as we can and not have them take on the ÿnancial burden of having legal problems,” Kamrass said.

Now that the proposal has been approved by the Board of Trustees, it will go into a preparation phase where details will be worked out.

One such detail is what will happen if not enough students opt into the program to cover costs, which requires a 55 percent acceptance rate. Ofÿcials don’t believe this will happen, though, based on benchmarks from other universities with this type of student fee-funded program.

“At other institutions, students take advantage of it largely,” said Martha Garland during the Academic and Student Life Committee meeting.

An oversight board comprised of representatives of USG, the Council of Graduate Students, the Inter-professional Council, the Ofÿce of Student Life, the Ofÿce of Business and Finance and the Moritz College of Law will oversee the planning process.

“So many other universities have programs like this,” Kamrass said.

“It’s time for us to have one.”

student voice Others’ religion is none of your business LANTERN Columnist

According to Monday’s Lantern, Real Life OSU conducted a survey of students’ faiths on campus. Real Life members are alarmed that students do not want to discuss religion or spirituality.

Staff at Real Life who consider themselves “spiritual resources” hope to encourage people to talk about religion.

However, I think that the main reason people don’t wish to discuss religion is because it is nobody’s damn business.

Just like your relationship status, your sexuality or even your weight, religion is a personal issue. I’ve always thought that religion and spirituality were about one’s personal relationship

EVERDEEN MASON mason.388@osu.edu with God. It’s something that everyone has to work out on their own at some point or another.

I have personal experience

“

”

I don’t understand how anyone can appoint themselves as a Christian role model, or make it their business to tell other people how to be Christians.

in this. When I was a freshman I joined one of the youth groups on campus, just to check it out.

I was around for a couple of months. I was encouraged by my roommate at the time, and I thought it would be a good way to make some friends and learn about myself.

It was OK at first. I felt uncomfortable most of the time

because people were asking me what seemed like personal questions, and complete strangers were praying for me. But I gave it a chance because everyone was really nice.

My feelings changed when one day, while at one of the Thursday sessions, I overheard people in the group talking about how they purposely try to talk

about God out loud when they’re in public so they can be good examples of Christians for other people. I laughed, but not really in a nice way. The logic of these self-appointed spiritual guides resonated so poorly with me that I never returned to the group.

See, as religion is a personal issue, I don’t understand how anyone can appoint themselves as a Christian role model, or make it their business to tell other people how to be Christians. In fact, how can an individual claim to be a spiritual resource? Isn’t that a bit conceited?

It’s annoying. How many students have been interrupted while hanging out on the Oval by

people from organizations who want to talk about God with them or “educate” them about God? It has happened to me a couple times, usually when I’m reading or having some good “me time” on the Oval.

I think religious discussion is a good thing. I think churches and youth groups are great for people who need that community. For most, I think, being spiritual is very private and personal, so for people to claim that it’s their job to shepherd these people into discussions and groups is a breach of privacy.

A few reasons why you should watch the World Cup LANTERN Columnist DAVID DAWSON dawson.284@osu.edu Few things illustrate the differences between us and the rest of the world like soccer. We are almost unique in our lack of interest in the world’s most popular sport. A couple of your friends might like it, of course, but most are just bored by it.

At least, that’s the stereotype. Soccer still doesn’t receive the attention that heavyweight sports like football or basketball enjoy, but it’s definitely no longer ignored. Ohio State is a great place to observe this trend.

Take a quick look around on a nice day and you’ll see any number of your peers sporting jerseys on their way to class.

Lots of these will be for football or basketball teams, but a great and growing number are jerseys from the great soccer clubs of Europe. You’ll also see some for

the Columbus Crew, the local MLS club that impresses all on its own.

It was only a matter of time before the skill, grit, flair and tactics of the “beautiful game” were appreciated stateside. But if you’re still a skeptic who’s reluctant to sit through a game featuring mostly foreigners you don’t care much about, there are other good reasons to watch.

The World Cup, the premier international event in soccer (and arguably all sports), is being held this June in South Africa. So far, more than 100,000 tickets have been sold in America, the most of any country other than the host. That’s a very impressive number, considering that in its history, Team USA has only once reached the quarterfinals.

Those sales are likely driven by expectations. As recently as last summer, the U.S. beat Spain

2-0. Spain was ranked first in the world and was on a 35-game unbeaten streak. We then barely lost to soccer powerhouse Brazil, 3-2, having led 2-0 at halftime.

This should show that the U.S. isn’t the pushover it once was. The team wasn’t playing for very high stakes, but any time opponents of that quality have problems, it’s a sign you’re doing things right. Many of our players play abroad and are used to excellent soccer.

We’re still underdogs, but we’re underdogs with a fighting chance. Having struggled even to qualify in the past, some are picking us for a possible run deep into the knock-out round of this World Cup. If the chance to see America square off against some smug foreigners doesn’t entice you (the U.S.’s first match is against England), there’s another great reason to watch. This is the first World Cup in Africa, a source of pride throughout the continent.

Countries like Cote d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Ghana and Nigeria have excellent players and rabid fan bases. For them, it’s not just bragging rights but national dignity that’s at stake. After watching the way they experience the game, it will be a lot more difficult for someone to say that soccer is still boring.

Arizona immigration law encourages racial profiling GUEST Columnist

The new immigration law in Arizona is no more than a violation of human rights.

In order for the law to work, it requires law enforcement officers to act on cultural stereotypes and prejudices instead of probable cause like a traffic stop. This means, that anyone who doesn’t fit the “U.S.-citizen” image could potentially be stopped walking to the local grocery store — with no suspicion other than his or her CASSANDRA GAMBOA features. How is this different than Mondokio International News the orders that were given to Nazi gamboa.6@osu.edu soldiers to find Jewish victims based on their physical features during World War II? The same cultural profiling is taking place, and it’s not right. Even though this seems like a small measure to protect our borders, the intentions are harmful to any non-U.S. citizen living in Arizona. In Mexico, El Universal also believes that this law is no more than an act of discrimination: “All evidence implicates that white fear in Arizona is based on the fact that they will be the minority group in a few decades.

They are naïve to think that they will succeed in reversing this trend with a discriminatory law.”

Because this law is based on physical features and cultural stereotypes, my question is: What constitutes the image of a U.S. citizen compared with a non-U.S. citizen? My grandmother, for instance, has been living in the U.S. since 1959, after she and my grandfather came

from Cuba. Even though she has been a U.S. citizen since 1959, her appearance, her language and her accent would show otherwise. How is it right to assume she is illegal based on her accent or appearance?

Because of the dangers in their native country, my grandparents were granted refugee rights to become U.S. citizens. My grandmother has been living in the United States, working and paying taxes like any other citizen. How is it fair that because of her culture, she is automatically stereotyped as illegal? This is where the law is wrong — in assuming that stereotypes and prejudiced intentions will be a positive solution to resolving our country’s immigration issues.

Ecuador is facing the same dilemma, where thousands of immigrants from other Latin American countries have crossed borders and now work illegally. They have stated that the ratio is 2:1, non-Ecuadorian citizens to Ecuadorian citizens. This has brought Portugal’s newspaper, Expresso, to this conclusion: “The idea of a ‘world citizen’ that travels without a visa is utopian, absurd, and self-destructive, since those that generally migrate are refugees or la crème de la crème of criminals, a real garbage heap of humanity.”

It’s important to realize that the U.S. is not the only country that faces immigration issues. Several European countries and even Central and South American countries are all dealing with the same issue. The problem of immigration is complicated on many levels because there are situations in other countries that force people to find refuge, and many countries cannot bear to be the refuge country any longer.

In Arizona this issue is becoming more than a legal one and instead one that deserves human rights action. With this law, there is a discriminatory aspect that needs to be evaluated as a violation of human rights.

Here in the U.S., even though it is natural to want to defend our citizens, we might be at the risk of tainting our image as a country.

I think now is a good time to recognize that our country represents

History grad student: Middle-ground student opinions vital to instructor surveys Letter to the editor CHRISTOPHER ELIAS History graduate student elias.44@osu.edu As one of the graduate students who signed the History Department’s petition concerning Student Evaluations of Instruction, I read Brad Miller’s Monday column (“Few fill out online evals, but does it matter?”) with great interest.

To answer Mr. Miller’s question: Yes, it most certainly matters.

Mr. Miller’s contention that the most extreme opinions in the student surveys have the most value (supported, he accurately notes, by a comment

4A

on the SEI website) shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the role of SEIs. First, in order to legitimize any score, whether a 1.4 or 4.8, a critical mass of student opinions is necessary. It is easy for a teaching assistant or professor to dismiss a poor score when only four students have responded; the same score based on 40 or 50 responses becomes much more significant.

Second, the scores are not nearly as important as the comments that accompany them. Even if a student gives his instructor middle-of-theroad scores, he still can provide insightful written comments. Anything from content analysis (“the textbook ignores the Latino perspective”) to less academic commentary (“your pink flamingo tie is super distracting”) is both helpful and welcome. One of the benefits of the online process is that it seems

to foster more commentary (after all, typing is faster than writing longhand).

I should also note that the proposal forwarded by the History Department petition did not call for grades to be withheld until students completed SEIs. Rather, students who filled out SEIs in a timely manner would be rewarded by being able to see their grades a couple of days early. This workaround is an incentive, not a punishment.

Recent discussions about this topic have illuminated the administration’s opinion that full student participation in SEIs should not be a goal, as it would possibly lead to lower scores and be detrimental to the university’s reputation. What this opinion says about the administration’s embarrassing lack of confidence in its instructional staff is damning enough. Regarded in a more holistic

sense, such an outlook represents a larger issue at this university: The administration seems intent on treating undergraduates like children instead of freethinking adults with valuable opinions that should be voiced often and voiced loudly.

AIDS, homosexual sex and love affairs are only a few of the topics addressed in Paula Vogel’s controversial play “The Long Christmas Ride Home,” which will be performed by Ohio State’s Department of Theatre Thursday in Thurber Theatre at the Drake Performance and Event Center.

Audiences will watch the progression of a family after an unfortunate incident occurs during a trip to church and the grandparents’ house during the Christmas season. The story begins with narration by the mother and father and continues on to character monologues of the three young children after they become adults.

The ill-fated situation alters the future of the family and seems likely to mess up the lives of the children.

Beth Kattelman was picked to direct “The Long Christmas Ride Home.” She has been directing since she was an undergraduate student and has experience with puppetry, the same form of this play.

“The play is done in a combination of a Japanese-style puppetry and a western tradition so that you get a combination of east and west cultures,” Kattelman said.

Vogel is an American playwright who includes bunraku, an ancient Japanese form of puppetry, in “The Long Christmas Ride Home.”

The audience can expect a very adult-themed experience. Some aspects of the play may be considered taboo. Portrayed through shadows, the son has unprotected sex with a male shadow puppet who has AIDS. One daughter catches her girlfriend cheating on her and contemplates suicide. Another woman becomes pregnant by a man other than her boyfriend. The human actors interact with shadow puppets to make these scenes happen.

“People will be offended, but it’s not about being in your face, it’s about showing what happens to these characters,” said Audrey Rush, a third-year in theater who works one of the shadow puppets. “Feel however you want but this is people’s lives.”

The three children in the beginning of the play are portrayed by bunraku puppets. The puppets were constructed out of wire, sculpted foam, stuffing and fabric to look like the actors playing the wrecked adult versions.

Each puppet is controlled by three actors went through movement and

The Nature Theater of Oklahoma will return to Ohio State’s Wexner Center with two new shows.

Putting a humorous spin on “Rambo” and Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” the group will entertain audiences for nearly a week, having begun on Tuesday.

The New York City-based group, whose name finds inspiration in Franz Kafka’s book “Amerika,” will make its first appearance at the Wexner Center since making its local debut with “No Dice” and “Poetics” in 2008.

The Wexner Center will co-produce the performances, and there will be three of each.

Based on the success of past Nature Theater of Oklahoma productions, the Wexner Center was happy to partner with the group for production, said Charles Helm, director of performing arts.

The group, founded in 1995, pulls inspiration for the shows from both the original stories and the human memory, relying heavily upon the accounts of ordinary people for the performances.

“Rambo Solo,” performed by one actor, is inspired by the 1982 book “First Blood” rather than the popular film starring Sylvester Stallone, both of which tell the fictional story of Vietnam veteran John Rambo.

Directors Pavol Liska and Kelly Copper actualized the work when they asked actor Zachary Oberzan to share his version of the story via the telephone.

Using props in his apartment, Oberzan later gave a visual reenactment while being videotaped

by Liska and Copper. Three videos of his retellings, paired with one live reenactment, make up Oberzan’s “Rambo Solo” performance.

The “Romeo and Juliet” performance will showcase nine individuals’ tremendously different accounts of the well-known tragedy.

“The star-crossed story is twisted into a big,

gnarly knot in this flat-out hilarious riff on that revered classic,” Charles Isherwood wrote in a New York Times review of the Nature Theater’s “Romeo and Juliet” in December 2009.

Helms said that numerous layers of meaning can be found in both works.

“These are sure to be anything but typical productions of these stories,” Helm said. “Nature Theater of Oklahoma has a conceptual framework for how they approached both works.”

The shows will be unbelievable and characterized by corky humor, Helm said.

One hundred viewers can view “Romeo and Juliet,” which will be performed in the Wexner Center’s Black Box on Mershon Stage. The Wexner Center Performance Space, where “Rambo Solo” will be performed, allows for about 80 viewers per performance, seated in a circle with Oberzan at its center.

Although those numbers are not extremely large,

All Good aims for all great AsHLey Din Gus Lantern reporter dingus.11@osu.edu

Jamming at a summer music festival isn’t hard to do, but choosing which ones to attend can cause quite the debacle for concertgoers.

For the jam-band scene, one particular festival incorporates all of the fixings needed for an incredible four days of music enjoyment.

The All Good Music Festival and Campout was named one of the best summer festivals by Rolling Stone Magazine because of its diverse line-up and harmonious setting surrounded by West Virginia’s Allegheny Mountains.

The festival is held on Marvin’s Mountaintop in

Good Music All

Masontown, W.Va., with 655 acres of land for roughly 20,000 people to camp, shop and rock to 40 hours of electronic, jam, rock, bluegrass, reggae and funk.

“The setting is so ideal. You’re on top of this mountain in West Virginia with a rural terrain,” said Rob Barraco, keyboardist of the

band Dark Star Orchestra. “You really get the feeling that you’re outside of the box there.”

One major factor in setting apart the All Good Festival from other summer fests is the adjacent stages for the performances. Because there are no overlapping sets, attendees won’t miss any performers on the two side-by-side stages.

“You can actually see every band that’s on the line-up,” said Dave Weissman, All Good Festival media director. “You don’t have to run from stage to stage to see it.”

The fans chose 40 to 60 percent of the acts. Included bands are Furthur featuring Phil Lesh and Bob Weir, Widespread Panic, Umphrey’s McGee, Yonder

Sketch By Number uses television shows and films as inspiration for comedy act rAAD sHubAiLy Lantern reporter shubaily.3@osu.edu Columbus isn’t renowned for having a wealth of comedy clubs. But lately, a growing number of people are showing interest in the comedy scene.

The sketch comedy show by the name Sketch By Number is contributing to the comedy scene on campus. Every month, usually on the second Saturday, Sketch By Number performs at the Shoebox space in the South Campus Gateway.

Liam Cronin, the director, will receive

his degree in theater this June. He hopes to continue supporting the local comedy community after graduation, even if it is difficult.

He said he struggles to capture the attention of fans unfamiliar with theater, as well as theater purists.

“They want to go see some ‘legitimate’ theater,” he said. “We’re straddling that middle line. We do a lot of really fun and interesting theatric inventions.

But we also do that stuff that’s just slapstick.”

Cronin said he got the idea from his sister who went to the University of Dayton, where he would see her sketch comedy shows frequently.

Similarly, her show was influenced by a comedy group from Chicago called Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind.

Some sketches from Saturday night’s show were based on a Glee audition tape, Maury and Harry Potter. One sketch even combined a story from Greek mythology with Ohio weather.

“A lot of our material comes from pop culture,” Cronin said. “And if you use the stuff that’s relevant to everybody, things like movies and books, things everyone knows, it’s going to be a lot easier to reach people.”

The group spends about two weeks in the month brainstorming and two weeks preparing the show.

“If we have a theme it helps a lot,” Cronin said. “Sometimes we do it by prop, or theme, or location, we think of it in a couple different ways.”

However the writing is completed, some elements are to be expected at every show.

One audience member, Spenser Morris, explained that the format is simple but fun. He said the group “always throws in a dance.”

The group has “graduated to two dances now, just because everyone’s kind of expecting it,” Cronin said. “It’s fun for us to think of creative ways to put it in the show.”

Each production is recorded and

available on the group’s YouTube channel.

“We have material that can’t be done live, which we would love to film,” Cronin said. “I think we’re going to start filming in June. Then we’re going to get it all ready and release them every week.”

Leaving the space in the Gateway, SBN has another performance June 18 at the Wild Goose Creative on Summit Street.

Always planning for a new month, there is one consistent factor across the material.

“We try to end every sketch with a bang, to leave it in the best possible place we can,” Cronin said.

arts&life Films join work of three great Kates ALex Antonetz Lantern reporter antonetz.3@osu.edu Three of cinema’s most acclaimed Kates are coming together for one epic series.

Films starring Katharine Hepburn, Kate Winslet and Cate Blanchett will headline the “Kiss Me Kate: Three Great Actresses, Seven Classic Films” series beginning Sunday at Gateway Film Center.

The series is being presented by the newly-formed Ohio State University Theatre and Friends Film Discussion Group. The group was founded by Kelly Gingery and Clay Lowe, an associate professor emeritus in OSU’s Department of Theatre.

The “Kiss Me Kate” series is designed “to talk about great women, great female actresses, in movies that kind of could appeal to anyone,” said Gingery, the series programmer.

“Kiss Me Kate” kicks off

Sunday at Gateway Film Center with its first film, “The Philadelphia Story,” starring Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant. Melissa Starker, sales and marketing manager for Gateway Film Center, and Carolyna Bradford, an actress and producer, will be guest speakers for the screening of “The Philadelphia Story.”

Hepburn, winner of a record four Academy Awards for Best Actress, was chosen because of her iconic status as one of cinema’s great actresses, Gingery said.

“We chose (Hepburn) because she was greatly popular,” she said. “She made comedies, drama. She’s kind of an icon obviously that everyone knows.”

The other two featured actresses – Winslet and Blanchett – were chosen because of their award-winning versatility.

“Kate Winslet and Cate Blanchett are two current day women that are very wellregarded Oscar nominees who

Theatre Department

aims to give viewers new experience exercises to work with each other. Shadow puppets are also characters and are controlled by five actors.

Because the puppets’ faces are fixed, actors render emotion of the puppets only through body language. Teamwork is necessary to make the scenes realistic.

“Everything we do is dependent on each other,” Rush said.

“From day one it was never separate work, it was the entire cast working together on all the movement.”

The rehearsal process determined who would be puppeteers depending on who was

interested and had an aptitude for it. Faculty members and guest directors ultimately had the say on who received what part.

Kattelman thinks it will be a unique experience for the audience because puppetry isn’t accessible to most viewers. The puppeteers in this play working in conjunction with each other to bring the characters to life is often a new encounter for viewers.

The play will run Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 p.m., Sunday at 3 p.m. and at 7:30 p.m. May 26-28.

make comedies, drama, biopics, whatever,” Gingery said. “They can do it all so nobody has really pigeonholed them.”

Along with “The Philadelphia Story,” the series will screen “Pat and Mike,” “The African Queen,” “Heavenly Creatures,” “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind,” “Elizabeth: The Virgin Queen” and “I’m Not There.”

Each screening will feature a discussion afterward led by two guest speakers chosen by OSU Theatre and Friends Discussion Group.

“We wanted to pick people that kind of have their finger on the pulse of the arts here in Columbus, not necessarily just film,” Gingery said. “We tried to match them up and talk with them and find out maybe if there are movies that they have an affinity for more than others.”

One of the goals of the series is to strike down the notion that a female lead correlates to a “chick flick,” Gingery said.

“Women today have such

A four-day pass will include admission to the Thursday Throw-Down featuring Dark Star Orchestra, The New Deal, Fort Knox Five and several small performances.

“In terms of things that are new, we are just polishing things we already have and just adding a few more things that are new. We can’t really shift it too much,” Weissman said.

The All Good Festival will be held in Masontown, W.Va., from July 8 to 11. Tickets are $169, camping included.

From Columbus to the front gate at the All Good, it’s roughly a four-hour drive.

“It’s a skip and a jump from Ohio to West Virginia,” Barraco said.

“Within the Mid-West they (Ohio State students) aren’t going to find a better festival.”

rober t Gar trell Lantern reporter gartrell.7@osu.edu After failing to live up to high expectations with the Dallas Cowboys, former Ohio State linebacker Bobby Carpenter will now get a chance to salvage his career with the St. Louis Rams. There, he will compete for a starting job, and he’ll do so with three other former Buckeyes who are also looking to prove their worth in the NFL. As part of a trade that sent him from the Cowboys to the Rams in exchange for offensive lineman Alex Barron, Carpenter joins former Buckeye linebackers James Laurinaitis, Na’il Diggs and Larry Grant for a silver bullets reunion in St. Louis.

The Rams are counting on Carpenter to help solidify their defense, and he hopes the change of

scenery can save what has been a disappointing start to his NFL career.

“It’s more refreshing to be in a new spot,” Carpenter said. “Sometimes change is good. To be in a useful place like St. Louis with all the young guys they have here, and just add to that with guys I’ve played with in college and that makes it even more special to me.”

Selected in the first round of the 2006 NFL Draft by the Cowboys, Carpenter struggled during his stint in Dallas to get playing time in the team’s 3-4 defensive alignment. Although he had his most productive season in 2009, recording 46 tackles and two sacks, his numbers were far lower than what the Cowboys had hoped for when he was drafted.

Carpenter rarely started for the Cowboys, and after being reduced to playing exclusively on special teams and defensive nickel packages, was seen as expendable and subsequently traded to the Rams.

Now, Carpenter will play as a weakside

linebacker in the Rams 4-3 defense, similar to the position he played at OSU. With a new team and a new defense, he said he hopes to emerge from early disappointment the way another former Buckeye linebacker, Mike Vrabel, did when he left the Pittsburgh Steelers for the New England Patriots.

“All that stuff happens for a reason,” Carpenter said. “I was able to work through it and get an opportunity in St. Louis, which I know I’ll be able to make the most of.”

Like Carpenter, the other Buckeyes in St. Louis are fighting for respect.

In 2009, then-rookie James Laurinaitis had an immediate impact on the Rams, recording 120 tackles, two sacks and two interceptions. But the former Butkus Award-winner’s accomplishments went largely unnoticed due to the team’s 1-15 record.

“When you win one game as a team it’s hard for

Intensity, passion fueled Spielman’s fire The Lantern continues its series on Ohio State’s football players of each decade with Chris Spielman, who anchored the Buckeye defense in the ‘80s and excelled in the NFL tra vis koZek Lantern reporter kozek.2@osu.edu From recent stars James Laurinaitis and A.J. Hawk to past greats like Tom Cousineau and Randy Gradishar, Ohio State’s linebacking corps can perennially be discussed as one of the nation’s best.

And when it comes to college linebackers past and present, few rival Chris Spielman.

“There is no question he is one of the best,” said Jack Park, author of “The Official Ohio State Football Encyclopedia.” “I can’t imagine anybody picking the top 25 players in football history at Ohio State and not including Chris Spielman in that group.”

A Canton, Ohio, native, hype began surrounding Spielman in high school when his play made him the first high school athlete to land his face on a Wheaties box.

In 1984, Spielman traded in his Massillon Washington High School uniform for scarlet and gray to begin what would prove to be an illustrious college football career at OSU. Both Park and Jim Karsatos, former OSU quarterback and teammate of Spielman, agreed that Spielman’s intensity set him apart.

Player of the

decade

1980s chris spielman

“Chris Spielman had an intensity as great as probably any football player I have ever studied or known,” Park said. “He had an intensity about him as a player that was almost unequaled.”

As a freshman, Spielman wasted little time proving his intensity and passion for the game to his teammates and the Buckeye faithful.

“In practice he worked as hard as anybody out there,” Karsatos said.

“His intensity was contagious, even as a younger player, and the older guys fed off of that.”

By his sophomore year, Spielman had established himself as a household name and a force to be reckoned with on the “silver bullet” defense.

chris spielman starred on the ohio state defense from 1984-87 before a n 11-year career in the nFl with the detroit lions, buffalo bills and cleveland browns.

The play that sticks out the most in Park’s mind came in a game that year in which Spielman had 19 tackles.

It was a game that pinned the Buckeyes against the No. 1-ranked Iowa Hawkeyes in the Horseshoe for what Park called one of the greatest OSU victories of all time.

“It was a fourth-down play and

Iowa gave it to their tailback,” Park said. “Chris made the tackle and that really started to seal the game.

“Spielman made a lot of big plays when the team needed it the most.”

Chris continued to make big plays during the next two seasons, as he finished his college career with 546

sports Buckeye bears resemblance to golf legend nick hil tbrand Lantern reporter hiltbrand.4@osu.edu Watch out golf world, there’s another Golden Bear on the prowl.

Growing up as a successful golfer at Upper Arlington High School, and now an All-American at Ohio State, Bo Hoag knows all about the original “Golden Bear.”

“I’ve heard people try and bo ho aG say that Jack Nicklaus got his nickname because he had blond hair. It’s not true,” Hoag said confidently. “A lot of people don’t know this, but Jack Nicklaus got his nickname from playing at Upper Arlington. It’s always been cool to tell people that.”

Like Hoag, Jack Nicklaus started off as an Upper Arlington Golden Bear, but Nicklaus’ career is a little more distinguished than Hoag’s at this point.

“He dominated on every level that he ever played,” Hoag said. “College golf was really different when he played, so it’s kind of hard to make those comparisons.”

Nicklaus won a national championship at OSU, and then went on to have the most decorated career in the history of the sport. Hoag, however, has an impressive résumé of his own.

Coming out of high school, Hoag had offers to play for schools all over the country. He narrowed his college choices down to Wake Forest, Virginia, Northwestern and OSU before deciding that he couldn’t tell his hometown school no.

“Just growing up right around Columbus, and right around the school, I had a lot of Buckeye in my blood,” Hoag said. “It was really hard for me to see myself competing against Ohio State.”

Hoag has placed in the top 10 at the Big Ten tournament in each of his three years at OSU. He led the team in scoring average the last two years and was recognized as an honorable mention All-American as a sophomore.

Although Hoag doesn’t buy into the comparisons to Nicklaus, he does cherish the fact that he is taking the same path as one of golf’s greats.

“To have the greatest golfer ever to play, to have played at your high school and live where you’re growing up is great,” Hoag said. “It just goes to show that, for me at least, it obviously worked for him, so the opportunity is there and it’s not like it can’t be done.”

To Hoag, there’s only one thing that needs to be said to people that think Tiger Woods is better than Nicklaus was.

bo hoag tees off at the Western r efining college all-america Golf classic on nov. 24, 2009.

“I tell them that Tiger’s got 14 majors and Jack’s got 18,” Hoag said. “There’s not much else you have to say.”

Nicklaus and Hoag have crossed paths a few times before. Nicklaus has spent time with the OSU players and given them pointers on their games, and even sent Hoag’s entire high school team autographed pictures.

Hoag still keeps the picture in his room today.

“I’ve actually gotten to play with him before,” Hoag said. “Well, I played with him one time. It was just a couple of holes, but I call it once because it sounds like a whole round of golf. “ Although he didn’t say who won the holes, Hoag did say that Nicklaus is still a fiery competitor, and was not just looking to go out there and have fun.

“It was just crazy to think that you’re playing with the best guy that’s ever played,” Hoag said.

“Just to be able to see how he does it, not that his way is the right way for everyone, but he obviously was extremely successful. What better guy to learn from?”

Playing golf ever since he could remember, Hoag said he grew up watching the Memorial Tournament, and credits a lot of his inspiration to play golf to Nicklaus.

Hoag isn’t focusing on golf after college just yet.

He has one more season left at OSU. “Next year I’m just looking to improve,” Hoag said.

“I want to win some tournaments obviously, but I’m not real big on setting specific goals saying that you have to do this, or you have to do that. I just have to work hard each day and see where that takes me.”

After college, Hoag plans to take a shot at his dream of playing golf professionally.

Hoag said he will likely join a qualifying school after his time is up at OSU. “It’s the way most people get out there,” Hoag said. “You have to keep advancing through three to four stages, and you have to keep making the cuts in order to move on. The opportunities are out there for anyone, you just have to play really well to make it.”

Though his professional career is still years away, it doesn’t have to stop Hoag from playing in majors as an amateur.

“It would be pretty sweet if I could make it to the Masters as an amateur. That’s about as good as it gets,” Hoag said. “If you can place first or second in the U.S. Amateurs you get to play in the Masters when you’re in college, so maybe this summer I’ll be lucky to do that, why not?”

Sue Stimmel, Ohio State’s women’s lacrosse coach recently resigned from her position, but after a 15-year career coaching the Buckeyes, her name will not soon be forgotten.

Stimmel grew up playing lacrosse in middle school, high school and at Temple University in Philadelphia, Pa. She was the first in her family to play lacrosse and she joked that her dad was upset she didn’t choose softball because he was a baseball buff.

Stimmel coached her way through graduate school at University of Massachusetts and took her first head coaching job at Denison University in 1990.

“Ironically (coaching) wasn’t my first choice,” Stimmel said. “But I decided after grad school that I might coach again if the opportunity came up, and a month after I said that the job at Denison opened.”

In 1995, Stimmel decided to leave Denison and take the new head coaching position at OSU. “Denison was a very good division-three team, but I wanted to get back to the divisionone level of competition,” she said.

Fifteen years later, Stimmel has accumulated a 122-111 record at OSU and led the Buckeyes to two consecutive NCAA tournament appearances in the 2002 and 2003 seasons, as well as an ALC Championship in 2003.

“It’s gone by pretty quickly,” Stimmel said.

“I can’t believe it’s been 15 years. Looking back there are ups and downs. I’ve had frustrating years and great years. The first year here was basically a club team because there was no recruiting time, but to see where we are now with one of the best recruiting teams we can really see how far we’ve come. To see all the players who have come through and what they’ve accomplished, some are even coaching or officiating — it’s a rewarding thing to see.”

Aside from her accomplishments with the program at OSU, Stimmel leaves behind a legacy with her players.

“My freshman year, she sat us all down and

sports Clippers’ manager OSU baseball continues along rained out, trail of success will not be Sarbaugh has team in first place rescheduled after last-place finish in 2009 blake Williams Lantern reporter williams.3012@osu.edu

kirk mcelro y Lantern reporter mcelroy.41@osu.edu

Only three Pittsburgh batters reached the plate Tuesday before umpires signaled for the baseball teams to clear the field because of rain.

Twenty minutes later, as rain continued, the game between the Panthers and the Buckeyes was officially canceled.

The last non-conference game for both teams will not be rescheduled.

The Buckeyes start a three-game series this Thursday against Big Ten-leading Minnesota with an opportunity to play in the conference tournament on the line.

Ohio State is 10-11 in conference play and sits in a four-way tie for fifth place. The top six teams play in the conference tournament.

The first pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.

Thursday at Bill Davis Stadium.

In his first year as manager of the Columbus Clippers, Mike Sarbaugh has taken a team that finished last in the International League West in 2009 and transformed it into a division leader in 2010.

Sarbaugh has proven to be successful as a manager at each stop along the way. Although he has been around the Cleveland Indians organization for 21 years, he has only been a manager since 2004.

As a manager, Sarbaugh has compiled a 479-336 regular-season record and a playoff record of 20-7. He won league championships with the Class A Mahoning Valley Scrappers in 2004, the Class A Kinston Indians in 2006 and the Class AA Akron Aeros in 2009.

Sarbaugh started his career in the Indians organization as a player in 1989.

“I signed originally with the Milwaukee Brewers and played a year there,” Sarbaugh said. “Then in the spring of 1990, I was traded to the Cleveland Indians for a Triple-A player. I played five more years with the Indians and then started coaching.”

Sarbaugh was named the Eastern League’s Best Managerial Prospect in 2009 by Baseball America, and was named the Eastern League’s Manager of the Year in 2009 after leading the Aeros to a league championship for the first time since 2005. His teams have never finished worse than .500 in his six years as a manager, and it looks like things will be similar with the Columbus Clippers, who are off to a 24-15 start.

“I think (it’s important) just being consistent with the message that you try to get across to the players, from the work ethic that you expect to just staying consistent,” Sarbaugh said. “They know what to expect every day they come in, and I just try to create a good atmosphere for them to be successful.”

Sarbaugh brought several of his Class AA Akron Aeros along with him to the Clippers in 2010, including top prospect Carlos Santana. The transition to Class AAA baseball has been smooth for Sarbaugh.

“I think the biggest thing is the experience of the players and where they’ve been,” Sarbaugh said. “A lot of the guys have played in the major leagues and are here now. I’m just trying to keep them motivated and wanting to get back there. It’s still baseball and you still want to try and compete and do your best, but how you treat the players might be a little different than how you would at a lower level.”

Sarbaugh gave credit to many of his mentors who have helped him to be in the position he is in and achieve the success that he has earned.

“I think my biggest mentor was my father — he was a coach,” Sarbaugh said. “Growing up, I was always around basketball, baseball, and just always knew that I wanted to be a coach. When I got with the Indians a lot of good people guided me along the way.”

The double standard with steroids evan closky Lantern reporter closky.2@osu.edu Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Rafael Palmeiro have all hit more than 500 home runs and, based on numbers alone, should be locks for Cooperstown.

But, they are not.

They have cheated the game of baseball by taking steroids. Baseball writers refuse to vote for these athletes because they deceived fans and tarnished the game.

What about Shawne Merriman, Rodney Harrison, Shaun Rogers and Ohio State’s Shawn Springs? These NFL players used steroids and on numbers alone deserved to go to Pro Bowls.

And they did.

Last week, football writers had a chance to voice their opinions on steroids in football. Defensive Rookie of the Year Brian Cushing was nailed with a four-game suspension for testing positive for hCG (a hormone known to be used by steroid users at the end of a cycle).

In light of this information, the Associated Press conducted a re-vote.

Cushing, though he received fewer votes, still earned a majority and retained his award.

Cushing winning this award was not only a contradiction, but also an egregious lesson learned.

Think about it. Steroids in baseball seemed to be an epidemic for the past two decades. The sport has gone through congressional hearings, new, stricter steroid policies and a Mitchell Report that did absolutely nothing.

Baseball is moving away from the “steroids era” by cracking down heavily on performance-enhancing drug users.

At the end of the 2005 season, baseball altered its steroid ban so that the first positive test results in a 50-game suspension, a second in a 100-game suspension and a third in a lifetime ban.

After this policy, there have been significantly fewer issues surrounding steroids and baseball.

Now, let’s revert back to Cushing.

Writers failed to teach football players that using steroids is the wrong thing to do.

In fact, they have insinuated that using steroids is 100 percent OK. Steroids were all right when Merriman received a Pro Bowl selection in the 2006 season when he sat out four games for taking PEDs. Roger Goodell then created a rule,

which many refer to as the “Merriman rule,” which forbids a player who tests positive for steroids from being selected to the Pro Bowl or winning any performance awards in the year in which they tested positive.

Obviously, four years later, we see how much Goodell is sticking to that rule.

The San Diego Union-Tribune conducted its own “Mitchell Report” in 2008 and discovered that at least 52 former Pro Bowl players have been tied to steroids or related substances.

When the league gave Cushing his fourgame suspension, they could have easily stripped away his award. It would have been a good stance against using steroids in football.

But, it could not take a stand, instead diverting the issue to the media. They let a group of writers decide where football wants to head with steroids in the upcoming years.

The writers chose to re-affirm the use of steroids.

What’s even more mind-boggling is that one voter, Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, changed his vote from Jairus Byrd to Brian Cushing.

Enough with the double standard.

If this happened in baseball, there would have been three days of coverage and a permanent blemish on the player’s record.

But, because football is a physical sport, we accept the use of a substance or two to gain an advantage over other players.

Football players are deceiving the fans and ruining the integrity of the game the same way steroids do in baseball.

In the end, it is teaching the wrong message to children who aspire to be athletes when they are growing up. They look up to these players and what do they learn?

If we want to stop the illegal use of steroids, the NFL and MLB need to be role models for the next generation.

If kids grow up knowing that using steroids is wrong, then they will instinctively not do it.

This process might take longer than one would hope.

When people look back in the record books, they will see the defensive player of the year was Houston Texans linebacker Brian Cushing.

When I look back, I won’t remember Cushing for how he excelled on the field, but how a group of sports writers and the NFL promoted the usage of an illegal substance.

It’s tough to advise against steroids when you can be honored for it.

Columbus Crew pair selected to U.S. World Cup roster Rogers, Marshall named to preliminary roster of 30 players, will have opportunity to try to make final roster of 23 John dUran Lantern reporter duran.30@osu.edu

Zach tUGGle / Lantern photographer

With the 2010 FIFA World Cup less than a month away, two local talents are looking to earn a spot on the U.S. team after being selected to the preliminary 30-man roster.

Columbus Crew midfielder Robbie Rogers and defender Chad Marshall have the opportunity to make the 23-man roster that will represent the U.S. in South Africa this summer.

“It’s fun, it’s exciting,” Marshall said. “Hopefully I can go in there and play well and stay healthy. I know I’m looking for one of those last few spots.”

The 30 players began training camp Monday in Princeton, N.J. The final roster will be announced June 1.

Rogers is honored to be among the final 30 but says he still has a lot more work to do if he hopes to make the final cut.

“I’m trying to take this moment and be a little proud for myself but also the other half of me is ‘I still got to work hard. I still got to make those 23,’” Rogers said. “I’m almost there, but I’m not there yet. I know I have a good chance to go to the World Cup and I really want to take this chance.”

Rogers and Marshall are seen by many as some of the top young talent the U.S. has in Major League Soccer.

Rogers has made appearances for the national team and was also named to the 2008 MLS Best XI squad.

Marshall has been named the MLS Defender of the Year each of the past two seasons and has been considered the top U.S. defender for some time.

“Chad is the best defender in the league,” said Technical Director Brian Bliss. “I think if Chad wanted to play overseas, he could.”

Before the cuts, the U.S. will play the Czech Republic on Tuesday in East Hartford, Conn., and Turkey in Philadelphia on May 29.

Marshall and Rogers will do their best to impress the coaches during camp.

“It’s a good honor for those two guys and it’s an honor for our club,” Bliss said. “Obviously the highest stage you could compete at is the World Cup. We’re in good company and wish those guys the best of luck.”

Laurinaitis excited

for opportunity to play with fellow Buckeyes anybody to stand out,” Laurinaitis said. “That goes for any position across the board.”

The disappointing season overshadowed an excellent rookie campaign by Laurinaitis, who didn’t receive any votes for the Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. But with his team’s winning as his primary concern, Laurinaitis is confident that he and his teammates can change the fortune of the Rams.

“A lot of us think that talent-wise we weren’t a 1-15 team,” Laurinaitis said. “But there’s a lot of guys that are unknown and I think we have a lot of good football players that are working their butts off to get better this offseason.”

Among the “unknown” players Laurinaitis speaks highly about is Larry Grant.

Before he was a teammate at OSU and St. Louis with Laurinaitis, Grant was a little-known prospect from Norcross, Ga., who had to play at junior college in San Francisco before transferring to OSU. Even at OSU, Grant flew under the radar when playing alongside Laurinaitis and Marcus Freeman.

“I’ve always felt like I was one of the unnoticed players, and it brings a chip on my shoulder,” Grant said. “I felt like I really have to bring it to another level every time I come out on the field.”

After being chosen by the San Francisco 49ers in the seventh round of the 2008 NFL draft, he was signed by the Rams without ever playing for the 49ers.

Grant, who has established himself as a versatile defender on special teams and as a backup linebacker with the Rams, credits OSU assistant

coaches Luke Fickell and Jim Heacock for helping prepare him for the NFL. “I had great coaches in Luke Fickell and Jim Heacock,” Grant said. “They showed me the ropes while I played at Ohio State and let me know that everything I do will be able to convert to the pro game.”

Na’il Diggs, who was a teammate of Fickell’s at OSU, was signed by the Rams this offseason to bring a veteran presence to the young defense.

Entering his 11th season in the NFL, Diggs is an experienced run-stopper who was brought in from the Carolina Panthers to aid a defense that ranked 27th in the league against the rush.

“Coming from Carolina, he’s trying to prove that he has more in the tank,” Laurinaitis said of Diggs, who was released from the Panthers in part because of his age.

The entire Rams team has gone through heavy roster changes to prevent another disastrous season. As a result of those changes, it’s possible that all three starting linebackers on the team will be Buckeyes, an anomaly in the NFL world.

But these Buckeyes weren’t assembled by coincidence. The Rams organization knows that even though college is over for the four linebackers, their connection to OSU gives them a unique bond and chemistry that’s difficult to find, and surely needed to revive the franchise.

“I think players at other schools like to imitate the whole ‘The’ Ohio State thing and the kind of bond that we have because they don’t have it at their schools,” Laurinaitis said. “It’s more or less pride about where you went to school and what your teams were able to accomplish. There’s a lot of pride in knowing that your school produces great football players.”

Spielman from 1B

Stefanie Spielman fund has raised more than $6.5 million

tackles, good for third all-time at OSU. He finished in the top 10 in Heisman voting each of his last two years, almost unprecedented at the linebacker position.

“On the field, he was all over the place and he had a great nose for the ball,” Karsatos said. “He could make big plays when we needed them and on the sideline he was just as intense and kept everybody up and into the game.”

Spielman exhibited his nose for the ball on the grandest of stages, including the 1986 Michigan game. He made 29 tackles that afternoon, the OSU record for most tackles in a game.

“They already knew what kind of player Chris was and knew they had to block him,” Karsatos said. “For him to get in on that many tackles in that kind of football game was pretty incredible.”

Following his senior season in 1987, Spielman left OSU as one of the most decorated linebackers

in program history, receiving the OSU Most Valuable Player and the Lombardi Award, along with being a three-time All-Big Ten honoree and two-time All-American.

Retired from a successful NFL career that included four Pro Bowl appearances, Spielman, a recent inductee into the College Football Hall of Fame, now co-hosts a Columbus sports talk radio show.

In addition to his work on the radio, Spielman has continued to write his legacy in the Columbus community through his and his late wife Stefanie’s establishment of the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research in 1998.

Since its inception, the Stefanie Spielman Fund has raised more than $6.5 million for breast cancer research at OSU’s James Cancer Hospital.

“He will always be remembered as one of the really great football players,” Park said. “But I think years from now when people look back and say ‘what is the legacy of Chris Spielman,’ it will be what he has done for other people through the James (Cancer Hospital).”

Coach

leaves her mark on women’s lacrosse program told us a story about how she completed a half Iron Man,” senior captain Rachael Cornicello said. “I think it was that point in time I realized what a hard worker she was and what a dedicated person she was.

She taught us that we could achieve whatever we wanted to, we just had to put our mind to it. I’ll never forget that.”

Megan Mirick, a former player and coaching associate of Stimmel’s, agrees that the coach had a profound impact on each of her team members.

“Sue cares a great deal for her players,” Mirick said. “My junior year, I was having a hard time coming back from ACL surgery. I had to go through some difficult procedures and she came with me to my doctor’s appointments, which meant a great deal to me being so far away from my family.”

Mirick graduated from OSU in 2003 and took an assistant position under Stimmel where she coached through 2007.

This extended relationship with Stimmel allowed Mirick to understand her better from “both sides of the clip board.”

“Sue knows the game very well,” Mirick said. “Something that sets her apart from other coaches is the type of athletes she recruits. She’ll often find less experienced athletes and mold them into lacrosse players that fit in her system.”

Stimmel said she tried to instill certain values in her players beyond the athletic skills she was expected to help them develop.

“I hope to help them understand being a part of something bigger than themselves,” she said. “Our teams always become close, so accountability and willingness to sacrifice for the benefit of the team are important concepts to learn, to understand other people.”

Her players say they will miss her, but are looking forward to the future and hope the program that Stimmel created will grow in great ways.

“I’m a senior, but I will definitely be staying in touch with her and I wish her the best in whatever she does,” Cornicello said. “Sue’s a great person, she’s done so much for me the past four years. She brought the team here and we are so thankful.”

At the end of Stimmel’s last season, players, associates and fans alike appreciate the great deal of work she put into the women’s lacrosse program at OSU, as well as the personal impacts she had on so many.

Mirick said, “She leaves behind a great start which will turn into a great history at Ohio State.”

Record number of student-athletes to be honored at dinner for work in classroom ashley Wal termeyer Lantern reporter waltermeyer.3@osu.edu With seasons winding down and another school year coming to a close, athletes will come together to celebrate success, not in their sports, but in the classroom.

Today marks the 43rd annual Scholar-Athlete Dinner, an event designed to recognize athletic excellence for those who have achieved a 3.0 grade point average or better over the course of the academic year.

The dinner is put on by the Department of Athletics and the Student Athlete Support Services Office, which invests time in making sure that athletes are able to play their sport while keeping their grades up.

The event also marks the 10th anniversary of the Younkin Success Center, which

provides support for students and faculty alike through tutoring and other academic services.

This year, 504 athletes who meet the 3.0 GPA requirement will be in attendance, which is a record for the ceremony.

Last year, 23 full teams made the ceremony, which served as a fierce competition to see who made the best grades.

The 2010 Big Ten Medal of Honor will also be awarded at the ceremony to the top male and female athletes.

Finalists for the men’s award include Jim Cordle (football), Justin Kronauge (tennis), Jeff See (track/cross country), Stefan Sigrist (swimming), Doug Verhoff (soccer) and Wes Wieser (diving). Female finalists are Ashley Bowyer (soccer), Chelsea Davis (diving), Sam Marder (softball), Barbara Nesbitt (synchronized swimming) and Julia Tikhonova (fencing).

The event will be held at 6:30 p.m. in the Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom of the Ohio Union, with the reception being held in the Suzanne M. Scharer Room before the event.
