City aims to reel in movie-making money ALEX ANTONETZ Arts editor antonetz.3@osu.edu If the city gets its way, superheroes might be assembling in Columbus sometime in the coming years. Mayor Michael Coleman’s office is working on a proposal to make the City of Columbus more attractive as a shooting location for major feature films. Tyneisha Harden, communications coordinator for Coleman, said the mayor was inspired to spearhead a campaign to make Columbus more competitive when he was presented numbers comparing how much money was spent in Cleveland and Cincinnati on films. “The mayor saw those numbers in comparison to Columbus and was pretty upset about that,” Harden said.
In 2011, about $3.7 million was spent in Central Ohio on film projects. In contrast, about $68 million was spent in Cleveland and Akron and almost $30 million was spent in Cincinnati in 2011, according to the Ohio Film Office. Columbus’ plan, which Harden said is a “fiveyear plan,” is still in its early stages. Budget and other monetary figures are not yet known. The mayor’s office is, however, working with Experience Columbus and the Greater Columbus Film Commission to put together a plan to present to city officials. “Our greatest challenge is coming up with a plan that we can present to the mayor that he feels like he can sell to other people in the city,” Harden said. “Liberal Arts,” which was directed by, written by and starred Columbus native and “How I Met Your Mother Star” Josh Radnor, was shot at Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. The film spent about
$750,000 in Central Ohio, said Gail Mezey, film office coordinator for the Office of Strategic Business Investments. The film was released Jan. 22. TV shows such as Lifetime’s “One Born Every Minute” and ABC’s “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition,” as well as Safe Auto Group’s commercial campaign, were also filmed in Central Ohio in 2011. On the other hand, a total of 15 projects were filmed in Cleveland and Akron, including “The Avengers,” which spent about an estimated $30 million in Ohio, Mezey said. Joss Whedon, director of “The Avengers,” said in a conference call with The Lantern that he enjoyed filming in Cleveland. “Cleveland had some financial advantages rebate wise, and that’s always a big thing for Marvel,” Whedon said. “And then, they also were very, very

LINDSEY BARRETT Lantern reporter barrett.684@osu.edu Boxes scatter the floor of the Undergraduate Student Government office suite in the Ohio Union as one student body president moves out to make room for another, leaving behind not only what he considers a successful term, but politics altogether. Nick Messenger, a third-year in political science and USG president, will officially step down Wednesday from his one-year term with Emily DeDonato, a third-year in biology, as his vice president. Taylor Stepp and Kevin Arndt will take office as the president and vice president for Ohio State’s first year on semesters. Messenger said he ran for president to help students solve problems they were facing. He said he and DeDonato can leave office knowing “we accomplished what we set out to do.” Messenger said it’s a good year when a USG president and vice president achieve two or three of their platform ideas. From helping students determine how to graduate on time to encouraging green energy initiatives, Messenger and DeDonato said
they accomplished nearly everything for which they campaigned. MySwitch, a website launched last September to help students with the quarter-to-semester conversion, was one of the reasons DeDonato said she and Messenger ran for office. The website they created has been visited more than 52,000 times and will continue to be used after the conversion as an advising tool. Last fall, Messenger and DeDonato invited OSU students to beat Michigan in sustainability efforts in Out-Green the Wolverines. Participating students recycled plastic bags and exchanged inefficient light bulbs for energy efficient ones. Messenger and DeDonato introduced their Buckeye Bookswap program Winter Quarter for students to directly sell textbooks to other students. Out of the 500 books collected, nearly 450 were left unsold, said USG director of academic affairs Sean Fitzpatrick. While Messenger admitted the program would need more marketing in the future, he considers the debut a success. “Students that did use it overwhelmingly said that ‘this saved me $80 or $90

An unidentified man was placed on indefinite leave from his job at OSU’s Wexner Medical Center after allegedly videotaping a student in a bathroom in Weigel Hall.
After allegedly videotaping students in a bathroom stall on campus, an Ohio State employee has been placed on indefinite leave, according to a 10TV report. The report said an unidentified man used his cell phone camera in a second-floor restroom of Weigel Hall, part of the School of Music at OSU, to film students in the stall next to him. 10TV reported that the man propped the cell phone up on his ankle and videotaped students in the stall next to him. One student, after realizing the situation, grabbed the phone and reported the activity to OSU Police. The man, a patient care associate in the emergency room employee of OSU’s Wexner Medical Center, was put on leave, but has not been charged by University Police, according to the report. Nic Turner, a second-year in psychology and strategic communication, had class across the street from Weigel Hall, in Hughes Hall. “It’s really weird that he did that, and it’s very unpleasant, I’ll say that. It’s actually pretty f****d up,” Turner said. “I feel a little creeped out about it now.” During interviews with University Police, the man admitted to videotaping another person, in addition to the one who reported him. Because he has not yet been charged, 10TV decided to not release the name of the employee. Questions on the case were directed to Deputy Chief Richard Morman of University Police and David Crawford of the Wexner Medical Center, who were not available for comment Monday night. Turner said he doesn’t feel less safe, but the thought of that happening on campus is “creepy.” “The more people you have in one place, I guess, the more likely that messed up stuff will happen like that,” Turner said. “Still, it doesn’t make it any less creepy.” Continue to check thelantern.com for updates on the story.

Festival raises money for Japanese disaster victims ZACH WATSON Lantern reporter watson.620@osu.edu With a showcase of paper cranes, kimonos and music, the Japanese Spring Festival raised money and awareness for people still suffering from the aftermath of the tsunami and earthquake in Japan more than a year ago. “They still need help,” said Erin Hope, a fourthyear in Japanese. “I think they’re gonna need help for quite a while.” The seventh annual Japanese Spring Festival April 29 in the Performance Hall of the Ohio Union showcased aspects of Japanese culture to raise money for people affected by the tsunami and earthquake in the Tohoku region of Japan. The Japanese Student Organization, which has been raising funds since the disaster last March, organized the festival. The event also featured live performances. The performances offered classical Japanese music played on wooden stringed instruments known as “kotos,” and modern rock from Katie and the Bio-luminescent Monkeys! and The High-Kicks. Hope, the president of JSO, described the event as a celebration of Japanese culture. She also said that with this year’s festival, the organization tried a new approach to help tsunami and earthquake victims. “We’re having schools making educational projects about Japanese culture,” Hope said. “They folded 1,000 cranes and then all that is gonna be sent to Japan.” Hope said each paper crane contains a message students from the participating local K-12 schools wrote. She said the cranes will be sent to schools in Japan that were affected by the tsunami and earthquake. Hope said introducing festival attendees to Japanese culture was vital, and several tables were set up to facilitate these introductions. One table allowed people to get their picture taken while wearing kimonos, which are Japanese robes that feature artistic designs. Laura Maurer, a graduate student in East Asian
language and literature, assisted participants with putting on the kimonos. “When I was living in Japan — I did a study abroad for a year and I worked there for two years — I took classes on how to tie kimonos,” Maurer said. At other tables, students could write their name in calligraphy and play with Japanese toys. Additionally, the event featured a table where attendees could send video messages to Japanese people who were affected by last year’s events. Hope said the Institute for Japanese Studies donated some of the supplies for the cultural exhibits and put together the project with the local schools. Attendees also had the opportunity to purchase food made by local Japanese vendors Tensuke Market, Belle’s Bread and Akai Hana. Hope said most of the food costs went to vendors, and JSO only made 25 cents for each item sold. Though the festival started slow in attendance, it saw more than 100 people at its height. The number was small in comparison to previous festivals, in which Hope said 300 to 400 people were in attendance. One student said it wasn’t the number of people in attendance that mattered but the variety. “They could probably do a little more to advertise it to people outside of the Japanese program,” said Tyler Bryant, a second-year in Japanese. “But I’m always really surprised because whenever I come here, I see a ton of people that I don’t recognize too.” The event was open to the public. Yayoi Moriyasu, a third-year in French, saw the event as an opportunity to meet new people. “I’m Japanese, so I want to make some other Japanese friends and some American friends who’s interested in Japanese culture,” Moriyasu said. For Hope, the event was also about helping students who are familiar with the tsunami, and raising awareness for those that are not. “We have people whose families were affected, and so it’s really (an) emotional and touching subject,” Hope said. “We’re trying to really tell the community about it and really support Japan no matter what.”
Four janitorial supply companies were awarded contracts from Ohio State to supply the basic materials to keep campus clean that cost the university about $4.8 million annually. M. Conley Co., HP Products, Joshen Paper & Packaging and Dynapak will be providing OSU with cleaning supplies after OSU Purchasing made a decision to standardize the items it uses. Nathan Andridge, senior director of OSU Purchasing, said the decision was in the university’s best interest. “One of the missions that we have obviously in purchasing is to support the core missions here at Ohio State, which is teaching, research, service and supporting students,” Andridge said. “So this janitorial award is consistent with what we’ve done.” Reducing the number of companies that supply these products from about 80 to four will save the university about $400,000 each year, according to the OSU Purchasing website. OSU Purchasing teamed up with facility leaders to come to an agreement regarding the acquisition of janitorial supplies that would minimize cost without sacrificing quality, Andridge said. “The janitorial supplies and chemicals purchasing project is just one in a series of cost savings initiatives that Purchasing has collaborated with administration and planning leadership and university-wide facilities leaders from Athletics, Business Advancement, Facilities Operations and Development and Student Life,” said Sherry Huegel, executive administrative assistant of OSU Purchasing and project manager. “The team recognizes the importance of streamlining and standardization and hold each other accountable for the success of the project.” The team reduced the number of different trash can liners used to nine from 31, toilet tissue to five from 13 types and janitorial chemicals and chemical-related products to less than 30 from 81, Huegel said. OSU Purchasing has the power, implemented by the OSU Board of Trustees, to form relationships with suppliers and execute cost-effective contracts. Elizabeth Buda, customer service manager at M. Conley Co., said this gives the company an

Conley Co., located in Canton, Ohio, will be responsible for providing hand soaps and sanitizers. “With us being in Ohio, I think that we have a lot of synergies with Ohio State,” Buda said. “It was just a natural fit.” Each company was required to meet cost and quality requirements that ensured they were an adequate choice as a supplier for OSU. Dynapak was awarded with a contract for trash can liners. Dale Miklich, vice president of sales at Dynapak, said this contract will be sure to “keep his people working.” Five different contracts were awarded, but only to four different companies, as HP Products received two contracts — one for disposable paper products and another for trash can liners, Huegel said. “We’ve been fortunate to have a relationship with Ohio State for many years and retaining our relationship is critical for us,” said Mark Summers, vice president of sales at HP Products. “Ohio State is one of our largest customers in the whole state of Ohio. We’re fortunate to continue on with our partnership.”

accommodating in terms of letting us blow up their city. Filming there was actually a joy.” Six projects were also filmed in Cincinnati, the most notable of which was “The Ides of March.” Cleveland has seen more success in attracting big productions because it is able to send representatives to Los Angeles, film festivals and expos to place itself on studios’ radar. Cleveland representatives visit Los Angeles four-to-five times a year to develop relationships and make connections with people in the industry, said Ivan Schwarz, executive director of The Greater Columbus Film Commission. The Greater Columbus Film Commission is not able to do that because it does not have the funding. It is a nonprofit organization that does not receive funding from the city, whereas Cleveland Film Commission and Cincinnati film commissions, while nonprofits, do receive money from the city. “(Los Angeles is) where we’re able to market ourselves as a city because (the studios) don’t come here,” Harden said. “Right now, we don’t have that going on. That’s the biggest reason why we’re not seeing a lot of activity going on here in Columbus.” In the 2009 calendar year, The Greater Cleveland Film Commission, which reports as The Greater Cleveland Media Development Corp., spent $545,524. The Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Film Commission spent $155,202 in 2008. In 2007, The Greater Columbus Film Commission spent $15,872. Those are the most recent figures according to GuideStar.org, where nonprofit organizations report their expenses and revenue. Ohio has become an appealing location for studios because of the Ohio Film Tax Credit, Schwarz said. Passed in 2009, it allows films that will spend more than $300,000 in Ohio a refundable tax credit that offers 25 percent off in-state spending and non-resident wages and 35 percent off Ohio wages. The credit is capped at $10 million annually, but Ohio legislators are expected to propose raising the cap to $20 million and extending the credit, which expires June 30. With the aid of the tax credit, as well as the mayor, a big-budget film such as “The Avengers”

from a book I was going to buy at SBX or Barnes & Noble,’” Messenger said. Other accomplishments from their platform included providing $35,000 in funding for student organizations, adding seven new study tables to William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library and increasing the number of Student Safety cars. The only platform item Messenger said he and DeDonato can’t check off their list is joint jurisdiction between OSU Police and Columbus Division of Police, an agreement that would allow University Police to patrol off-campus neighborhoods. President E. Gordon Gee told The Lantern April 23 that both police departments are working through union contract issues to reach an agreement. “Our own police, the Ohio State University Police, are fully committed to doing this,” Gee said. “I think it will happen in fairly short order.” In achieving many of the items from his campaign, Messenger said he views his term as president a success, but said the credit lies with his cabinet. “I don’t possess any leadership skills or any insight or knowledge that makes me any better at this than anybody else would be.” Messenger said. “We get a lot of credit for things that USG does but the biggest secret … is putting the right people in the right places and then letting the rest take care of itself.” Messenger called his experiences over the last year “life-changing” in more ways than one, but perhaps the greatest lesson of all for Messenger was learning that politics is not where his life is headed in the future. He said he will instead pursue a career in medicine. “The campaign was fun, but the real joy out of this year for me was the day-to-day ability to do something that made someone else’s life easier or someone else’s life better, or made someone’s day and really made a difference, when I can actually see and touch and feel the difference I’ve made through what we do here,” Messenger said. “I’ve enjoyed that experience much more.”
will “absolutely” shoot in Columbus some day, said Thomas McClure, executive director of The Greater Columbus Film Commission. “We just need our city’s support, and we need to have presence in L.A.,” McClure said. “Columbus offers so many great locations, along with a large pool of filming resources.” Local productions benefit hotels, transportation, restaurants, hardware stores, make-up counters and retail clothing stores in the area, McClure said. While “Liberal Arts” only spent $750,000 in Central Ohio, it still benefits the local economy, McClure said. “When several films like ‘Liberal Arts’ shoot in our city, it does bring immediate stimulation to the city … (but) maybe not in a huge way as a film like ‘The Avengers’ will,” McClure said. “However, attracting smaller films like ‘Liberal Arts’ all year long will provide a steady flow of work for the whole city.” Apart from financial gain, Jeff Stang, store manager of Laughing Ogre Comics, located at 4258 N. High St., said he didn’t see a good reason why a film like “The Avengers” should shoot in Columbus. “See, the problem is that most of the Marvel universe takes place in New York City, so you have to find something that can model either New York City or one of the boroughs, or something like that, and Columbus just doesn’t have the skyline to do it,” Stang said. Some Ohio State students, on the other hand, are on board with a big-budget film shooting in Columbus. “I think it would be good,” said Trey Schober, a first-year in mechanical engineering. “It would be huge. There’s a lot of really interesting places around the area, or just around the entire city, and it’s a cool place to film.” Rachel Freese, a first-year in biomedical engineering, said she would like to see filming on campus. “I could see some serious action films going on OSU’s campus, let’s be honest here,” Freese said. While the city continues to work on its plan, Harden said the end goal is to be the most attractive city in the state for studios and filmmakers. “We would like to be better than Cleveland in this field, but right now, we’re not at all,” Harden said. Sarah Pfledderer and Andi Hendrickson contributed to this story.
DeDonato said it was a mutual decision to not seek re-election. “We did everything we wanted to do,” she said. “We knew there were other people out there who can do a good job.” Neither DeDonato nor Messenger have plans to participate in USG next year. DeDonato said it would be difficult to step out of a role she and Messenger held for a year, and she said she wants to give the new leaders their chance to govern. Messenger agreed. “I’m a believer there’s only one USG president at a time,” he said. In leaving behind a life of breakfasts with university administrators and evenings in cabinet meetings, Messenger said he looks forward to the “average” life of a college student — though that is not to say he won’t miss his time as USG president. “I’ll miss being busy all the time,” Messenger said. “The office becomes a second home, the people … become lifelong best friends … (It was) an incredible experience with incredible people, and I’m excited to see Taylor and Kevin and their team having those experiences.” Messenger said he leaves USG at a time when more students are paying attention to student government, reflected by this year’s election, which brought in a total of 8,563 votes, according to election data. It is the second-highest number of votes cast in the history of the organization behind the 1975 election in which 8,770 votes were cast. He said he hopes Stepp and Arndt can continue the trend of more students caring about USG, and that he is ready to let the new president and vice president take over. “The book on Nick and Emily is pretty much closed,” Messenger said. “I had a solid 365 days to get my agenda accomplished, and we did a lot of it. Now it’s Taylor’s 365 days. I really do wish them the best of luck. I think they’ll be fantastic.” Caitlin Essig contributed to this story.

Joshen Paper & Packaging will be providing janitorial supply cleaning tools including mops, brooms and dust pans. Anthony Salyers, senior account manager for Joshen Paper & Packaging, said this is a good opportunity to work with the flagship university in the state. While price of the supplies was a big concern, ensuring that quality was not lost was just as important for this team of facility leaders, said Dave Isaacs, communications and media relations director for the Office of Student Life. “When we put out this bid, we made sure that the quality of the product was higher than it was before,” Andridge said. “We made sure that it’s really a win-win, because we’re improving the quality of those and actually saving money.”

Also, OSU Purchasing made a decision to have janitorial supplies stored in its own warehouse for delivery rather than having suppliers distribute them around campus. Having OSU Stores and Receiving responsible for the circulation will reduce the number of trucks on campus and help the university in their sustainability goal, Andridge said. “At the end of the day, the reason that we are all here is to provide value to the customers, being students, faculty, staff,” Andridge said. Jon McAllister, a first-year in exploration, admits that he has never given thought to where janitorial supplies come from that are used on campus. “Cleanliness in the dorms is extremely important to me as a freshman,” McAllister said. “But I’ve never really stopped to consider where those supplies came from.”

“Blown away” Carrie Underwood
One of the world’s largest student film festivals is making its way to Ohio State for the fourth time. Campus MovieFest is scheduled to start at noon Tuesday in the Ohio Union. Campus MovieFest travels to 70 campuses across the United States and United Kingdom to give students an opportunity to make a five-minute short film in seven days, said Nishant Gogna, promotions manager for Campus MovieFest. “Last year, some of the best films in the country were made in Columbus,” Gogna said in an email. “So we are very excited to be returning to the land of the Buckeye and giving students another shot at glory.” The festival provides students with an Apple computer, Panasonic HD video camera and training and support for one week free of charge. Gogna said students are encouraged to make whatever genre of film they like, except an adult film. “Genres can range from dramas, to comedies, to documentaries, to dramadies, to mockumentaries, to even music videos,” he said in an email. “As long as the film is five minutes or less, and was filmed and edited in the seven-day time slot, it’s good to go.” A panel of judges, chosen by Ohio Union TV and made up of OSU students, faculty and staff, determines the winners. Films are judged based on creativity, story and technical achievement. The top 16 movies will be screened at the OSU red carpet finale May 10 at Gateway Film Center. Movies awarded Best Picture, Best Comedy and Best Drama from the OSU competition will advance to the grand finale in Hollywood in June, according to the press release. Movies not directly chosen by judges to advance

The competition permits movies that are the most viewed within that 30 days to automatically advance to the grand finale. Matthew Swift, film studies program coordinator, was a judge at last year’s Campus MovieFest and will return as a judge this year. “Last year we got some stuff that was really wellpolished and we got some stuff that it was obvious that they didn’t have as much access to equipment or experience,” Swift said. “That doesn’t necessarily mean it wasn’t a good film.” Swift said he thinks students should get
involved because the festival allows students to make something impressive with equipment that’s provided for free. “This festival is all for students to get their work out there, get publicized,” Swift said. Franz Ross, a first-year in film studies, said he plans to take advantage of the opportunity. “I do plan on entering Campus MovieFest,” he said. “In fact, I have written a screenplay entitled ‘It’s 3 a.m. and I Hate Everyone,’ that I plan to produce with Chris Wittum (a first-year in English).” The festival is free for any OSU student, faculty and staff member.

“Sniper Elite V2”
The Ohio Union Activities Board is the biggest tease on campus. Instead of just releasing information, such as the featured performers for the Big Free Concert scheduled for May 12, OUAB dangled the prospect of “big news!” on its Twitter page, @ OUAB, and gave an excruciating amount of hints before revealing anything of great relevance. OUAB announced April 20 that the headliner for its annual spring Big Free Concert would be dubstep artist Skrillex. It even used Twitter to announce Big K.R.I.T. canceled his appearance as J. Cole’s opener in Monday’s concert in the Ohio Union’s Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom. I had literally postponed my dinner plans to stalk OUAB’s Twitter, excited to hear what amazing artist they would announce. As OUAB tweeted hints such as, “this artist left their band to pursue a solo career,” and “We’re doin’ it BIG by bringing a grammy award winning artist who gained fame during the MySpace Days!” my mind was foolishly racing with visions of Justin Timberlake and Beyonce. After every hint OUAB gave, it demanded 50 retweets for
another hint. Hours later, it finally announced Skrillex. Imagine my disappointment. I realize this genre of dubstep music is becoming a popular one, but I have not jumped on the bandwagon, and I don’t think I will any time soon. Maybe I just haven’t given it a fair chance, but I’m not interested. After just about everyone seemingly thought OUAB was done with its shenanigans, it announced through Twitter with an emoticon wink that it wasn’t quite done announcing its Big Free Concert lineup on April 23, three days after their first announcement. Again, after a night of teasing
on Twitter with clues such as the fact that the next artist would certainly not have an Ohio State dot number that is .1, OUAB announced Mac Miller would be joining Skrillex in the Big Free Concert. This was a less disappointing announcement. While I’m not a Miller fan, I was happy to hear the concert would involve something other than Skrillex. But overall, as much as OUAB teases its big concerts, I have been disappointed with its choices this year for the spring concert and the one in the fall. I will admit that Skrillex and Miller will probably be a better pair than Boyz II Men and Smash Mouth, but neither lineup has blown me away. I would much rather see an artist who is still relevant today. As a first-year, these have been my first big OUAB-sponsored free concerts. I have heard of the concerts of the past, featuring Weezer and 3OH!3 and I wish my OUAB concert experiences could even come close to those big names. From now on, if OUAB insists on teasing me and my fellow Buckeyes about their events, I wish the events would at least be something worth the wait.

Crew returns to OSU to honor Connor Senn Andy Evans Lantern reporter evans.403@osu.edu
For players participating in Tuesday’s Connor Senn Memorial soccer game between the Ohio State men’s soccer team and the Columbus Crew, the event is more than an exhibition match. The charity event, which honors former OSU soccer player Connor Senn who collapsed on the field of play and died hours later, transcends sport, said Columbus Crew coach Robert Warzycha. On Sept. 26, 2001, Senn, a then-18-year-old freshman, collapsed on the field during a game at Akron. The cause of death was determined to be a congenital heart defect that, at the time, went undetected. “I would call (Senn) more of a family member,” Warzycha said. “He was a soccer player, we all play soccer. It’s very important for us to be at this game. This is something that we all remember and it raises awareness of what happened on the field and raises money for the cause.” The charity match was established in 2002 and will be back Tuesday for the 11th time. The event raises awareness for sudden cardiac arrest in athletes with proceeds benefiting the Connor Senn Memorial Fund and the Dorothy M. Davis Heart & Lung Research Institute at OSU’s Wexner Medical Center, according to ohiostatebuckeyes.com. For the first nine years of the game, OSU took on the Crew. Last year, though, the Crew elected not to play in the charity match. Crew technical director Brian Bliss told The Lantern in May 2011 that playing in the Connor Senn Memorial Match would cost the club $10,000 because of the Major League Soccer Players Union’s most recently ratified collective-bargaining agreement, which stipulates that MLS clubs can schedule only one non-league “free game” per season. The Crew had already scheduled an international friendly against Premier League’s Newcastle United to

The Crew tied Houston, 2-2. be played on July 26, so OSU instead hosted the Dayton Dutch Lions of the United Soccer Leagues. The Buckeyes lost to the Dutch Lions, 3-1, May 2. This year, the Crew returns to take on the Buckeyes and OSU coach John Bluem said having them back is an important factor for both teams. “It’s neat. It’s the pro team in town playing against Ohio State University men’s Division I team,” Bluem said. “The Crew really add that little bit of extra juice to it.” Bluem said he’s looking for his team to go out and show that they can keep up with the pros. He also said he would like to have the opportunity to play everyone on the team, but the bench might see limited action in this contest. “We want to show that we’re a good team. We’re going to put out there who we think is the best group and play them for as much of the game as possible,” Bluem said. “Hopefully we can go about 70 to 75 minutes and it’s a good game and it’s close.” Former OSU and current Crew goalkeeper Matt Lampson previously
played in the game as a Buckeye from 2008-2011 and said he’s not going to take the game lightly. “I’m excited about it and I’m going to be honest, I want to make it not close … You would think that I would have some sort of compassion for my alma mater, but unfortunately,” Lampson said, pausing while a grin spread across his face, “it’s not there. This is my job now and I gotta go out and do it.” Lampson said when he wore scarlet and gray, OSU often went into the match hoping to make it close but quickly realized they would be outplayed by the pros. He said he’s expecting this year’s match to play out in similar fashion. “When I played with OSU, they would say things like, ‘All right we’re going to go out and play against these guys,’” Lampson said. “And we would try for about five minutes and then we were like, ‘Well, they’re way better. Lets hang back a little bit.’ That’s what I’m expecting, for them to hang back and not attack so much.” Warzycha said he plans on starting players that don’t normally crack the Crew’s starting lineup, but added that
everyone on the Crew could have a chance to play. “We’ll see how the game goes and everybody is going to be on the bench, so if we need to use somebody, then they’ll go in and play,” Warzycha said. Regardless of the outcome, Bluem said he is proud of what the game has become, grateful the Crew have agreed to be a part of it and said there is a lesson that can be learned from all of it. “Life is precious. Sudden cardiac death is a scary thing that can happen in athletics and in general walks of life. The Columbus Crew have been unbelievable as a partner for the last 11 years,” he said. “Our goal now is through research and education, which we can now fund, to prevent sudden cardiac death.” Tuesday’s game kicks off at 7 p.m. at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. Tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for children and students and can be purchased online at OhioStateBuckeyes.com or by calling 1-800-GO-BUCKS. Pat Brennan contributed to this story.
Meyer hits links with former OSU captain Aaron Green Lantern reporter green.1078@osu.edu With the Spring Game under his belt, Ohio State football coach Urban Meyer is heading south for a little golf. On Tuesday, Meyer and OSU are competing in the sixth annual Chick-fil-A Bowl Challenge charity golf tournament. The event is a two-man scramble competition played at the Reynolds Plantation’s Oconee course in Greensboro, Ga. with a total of $520,000 on the line in scholarship funds. This year’s 16-team field is the tournament’s largest in its six-year existence. The teams are comprised of an NCAA football coach and a celebrity alumnus from the same school. Teaming up with Meyer is former OSU running back Jeff Logan. A co-captain on the 1977 football team, Logan played for the Buckeyes from 1974-1977. Backing up two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Griffin in his first two seasons, Logan started his final two years for the Scarlet and Gray, earning All-Big Ten first-team and Academic All-American honors in 1977.
Meyer was hired as OSU’s football coach in November after almost a year of turmoil surrounding the program. Boasting a 104-23 career-record in 10 seasons at Bowling Green, Utah and Florida, he has won two National Championships and is undefeated in BCS bowl games (4-0). Meyer and Logan, along with the other 15 teams, will play 18 holes, and the team with the lowest scramble-score will win the challenge and the first-place prize of $125,000 in scholarshipfunds. In a scramble, both players tee off on each hole. The better of the two tee shots is selected and both players play their second shot from that spot. The same process is applied to each subsequent shot until the ball is holed. Paired with OSU’s team is Georgia Tech. The school’s football coach Paul Johnson and former Yellow Jackets basketball star Jon Barry are the event’s defending champions, winning the 2011 competition with a score of 11-under. Other schools participating in the event include Florida State (2010 champions), South Carolina (2009 and 2008 champions), Virginia Tech (2007 champions), Tennessee, Miami and Alabama.

Conferences softening on 4-team playoff system for NCAA Bowl Championship Series Cameron Weimer Lantern reporter weimer.64@osu.edu The NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision is steadily progressing toward a four-team playoff system to crown a national champion. After discarding eight and 16-team playoff models, presidents of the Bowl Championship Series member conferences and Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick appear to have settled on a four-team playoff system during meetings last week in Hollywood, Fla., according to multiple reports. The new playoff format would begin for the 2014 college football season, according to the reports. The BCS’s official statement after the meetings said the goal all along has been to protect the regular season. “From the start, we set out to protect college football’s unique regular season, which we see as the best regular season in sports,” the BCS statement reads. Like it or not, it seems the BCS is moving in the direction of eliminating the algorithms associated with the system. “Having carefully reviewed calendars and schedules, we believe that either an eight-team or a 16-team playoff would diminish the regular season and harm
the bowls,” the statement read. “College football’s regular season is too important to diminish and we do not believe it’s in the best interest of student-athletes, fans or alumni to harm the regular season.” The location of the semifinal games under the proposed plan has yet to be determined. Multiple reports say an integral factor in the proceedings would be preserving the Rose Bowl and possibly the other BCS bowls. Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said he’s open to the idea of change as long as it isn’t too extreme. “Not all change is manageable,” Delany told The New York Times. “You want to control change. You want evolution, not revolution, because you don’t know what the unintended consequences will be.” The BCS officials and other conference commissioners are scheduled to meet again in Chicago in June, according to ESPN.com Some students said they think the Buckeyes will do well in the new system. “I think (a four-team playoff) would be a lot more entertaining and exciting,” said Anthony Chambers, a second-year in biology. “I think (Meyer would) do great. I don’t think that a different format is going to change how good of a coach he is because he’s already proven himself at another college in the existing format.” President E. Gordon Gee told The Lantern in
Cody Cousino / Photo editor
President E. Gordon Gee addresses questions from The Lantern editorial staff during an April 23 meeting in The Lantern newsroom. February that he still opposed the idea of a playoff system, but is starting to warm up to the idea. “I’m very much on record of being opposed to a playoff system,” Gee said. “Saying that, one of the things you have to do at my age, you have to understand that the world is changing around you, so therefore you have to take a look and see what the possibilities are … I want to think about it.”
Andrew Tirpak, a fourth-year in environmental engineering, said he supports the four-team playoff model and he thinks OSU coach Urban Meyer will succeed in the proposed system. “I mean, (Meyer is) a really good coach and I think he would really shape our team for that kind of system,” Tirpak said.
