Senior wide receivers, Evan Spencer (6) and Devin Smith (second from left), sophomore safety Cam Burrows (16) and redshirt-junior safety Ron Tanner (20) sing ‘Carmen Ohio’ after a game against Virginia Tech on Sept. 6 at Ohio Stadium. OSU lost, 35-21.

After the loss in 1978, then-OSU coach Hayes said that the ineffectiveness of the rushing game was the biggest problem for OSU, according to a 1978 Lantern article about that game.

Meyer said after Saturday’s loss that he spoke to his team following the game about moving on to the next matchup.

A homeless man with a long list of criminal offenses, many of them near Ohio State’s campus, was arrested after a bike patrol reportedly caught him raping a woman inside an empty off-campus garage early Saturday morning, according to a Columbus Division of Police press release.

Some students living in the off-campus neighborhood where the crime took place said they feel safe in the area, while others don’t.

That crime happened just before 2 a.m.

Saturday morning when Columbus Police patrol officers were making their rounds in the East 12th Avenue area. During the patrol, the officers shined their flashlights on what they thought was a vacant garage. Once their beams lit up the space, though, they realized two people were inside.

The release stated the officers saw a man on top of a woman on the garage floor, “engaging in what appeared to be sexual intercourse,” so they intervened.

After talking to the 21-year-old woman whom they had seen on the ground, the officers learned the 36-year-old man, identified as Randy Graham, Jr., had forced her into the garage before he began sexually assaulting her.

Graham was arrested and charged with rape and kidnapping that night.

The female victim was treated at a local hospital Saturday. She is not an OSU student, CPD public information officer Denise AlexBouzounis said.

Graham’s address is listed as homeless and he has been known to frequent the area, she said.

Despite the assault, some students said they still feel safe both on- and off-campus.

Genevieve Danes, a third-year in international studies, said she’s lived at her off-campus home for two years and has always felt safe.

“I never had a problem being alone,” Danes said.

Although she feels relatively safe in the area, Danes said for safety purposes, it’s best to avoid certain areas, like dark alleys.

But Lindsay Lingafelter, a fourth-year in environment, economy, development and sustainability, said she doesn’t feel safe at night or even during the day.

“I would never walk alone anywhere, even at daytime,” she said. “But I see dudes doing (it).”

One such man is Yiran Wang, a fourth-year in accounting, who said walking alone is safer for men than it is for women. He said he’ll walk with women to make sure they get home safely.

“Women should just not walk alone,” Wang said.

Saturday wasn’t Graham’s first run-in with local law enforcement, either. Columbus police have been dealing with Graham since at least the turn of the century, a search on the Franklin County Municipal Court Clerk of Courts showed.

Graham’s criminal offenses appear to have started in 1999, according to the website. In those years, he’s been found guilty of offenses including assault, menacing, disorderly conduct and domestic violence on multiple occasions, the records show. He was also found guilty of aggravated menacing and aggressive panhandling.

Many of those offenses took place in areas surrounding OSU’s campus, although some

Sorority’s house renovations met with protests AUDREY DUVALL Lantern reporter duvall.82@osu.edu Union workers have taken to the streets to protest an Ohio State sorority hiring non-union workers to renovate its house.

The Indiana-Kentucky-Ohio Regional Council of Carpenters set up a banner recently outside of Kappa Kappa Gamma’s Beta Nu chapter house on East 15th Avenue that stated, “Kappa Kappa Gamma SHAME, SHAME ON YOU!” IKORCC also passed out flyers stating that the group is protesting the chapter for hiring

Cleveland Construction Inc. for the renovation.

Cleveland Construction specializes in general contracting, construction management, design-build and interior trades, according to its website.

The IKORCC flyer said Cleveland Construction does not pay its carpenters a fair wage or provide them with proper fringe benefits.

It went on to say that the use of non-union labor will result in a decline in the local economy since workers will have less money to spend.

On its website, IKORCC has a list of other businesses to

boycott, including FedEx, Dollar General, Taco Bell and Dunkin Donuts.

Multiple phone calls to IKROCC from The Lantern were unreturned.

Kappa Kappa Gamma’s national headquarters, as well as the president of the OSU chapter, directed questions to Tanya Rutner, president of the Beta Nu Building Association.

Rutner said the protest is misdirected.

campus Game encourages 1st-years to head around campus HAYLEY BECK Lantern Reporter beck.512@osu.edu Brutus Buckeye has lost his head and he needs help finding it.

At least, that’s the premise of a game called Head Hunt for first-years on campus — the Scarlet and Gray mascot is enlisting those students’ help to locate his missing head in an effort to get them familiarized with Ohio State’s library system and campus.

The hunt takes place through an online game that offers firstyears a virtual journey of campus in a quest seeking the Buckeye’s missing head.

“Since the game is based on the campus map, it helps students to learn to navigate the campus,” said Beth Black, an undergraduate engagement librarian and main contact for the game. “Our goals in developing Head Hunt were to provide an orientation to library resources and services for incoming students in order to alleviate fears and encourage usage,” she said.

The overall game consists of an interactive campus map, games and short videos.

The first game was launched in fall 2007 to nearly 6,000 firstyears, according to the game’s website.

This year, all first-year students received an email explaining how the game works before classes start and have until Oct. 31 to complete the game. If completed on time, students are eligible to win a $50 Barnes & Noble gift card. Ten gift cards will be awarded, according to the website, but participation is not mandatory.

Although Black said she couldn’t find an exact cost of the

game, she said the cost is “minimal.” She said the only recurring cost of the game is $500 for prizes.

Some students said they think the game might be helpful for becoming more familiar with campus.

“As first-years, many of us are unfamiliar with campus,” said Kylee Voshel, a first-year in international studies who hasn’t played the game. “Head Hunt would be a great resource for learning about the library system while meeting new people.”

She said turning a somewhat-boring library experience into a game is a good way to get students involved and help them learn about the library’s services.

“A lot of students only want to use online sources because it’s easier and because they are unfamiliar with the library system,” she said.

Samantha Norman, a first-year in agriscience education, said she likes the game’s motive but doesn’t think it would be of much use to her.

“I feel as though I already have a good idea of how the library and its resources work,” she said.

Karen Diaz, an instructional librarian on the original design team, said the game was developed on the quarter system and it was a great way to engage students before they came to campus.

“We have learned that in the semester system, the game really does not get played before people come to campus, so we are now promoting it heavily through Welcome Week and survey classes,” Diaz said.

So far, the game has been effective, Black said.

“We did surveys of students in 2006, prior to the game, as a baseline, and again in 2007 and 2008 with students who played

Fourth-year in optometry RUBINA KAPIL Lantern Reporter kapil.5@osu.edu It all started for optometrists at Ohio State on Sept. 16, 1914.

The Ohio State College of Optometry had its first day of classes, with 16 men enrolled in a two-year applied-optics program, said Dr. Karla Zadnik, dean of the College of Optometry, during the college’s centennial gala Friday evening.

Now the college receives about 600 applications annually from around the globe, and only 64

2A

students are accepted per year to receive a fouryear doctoral degree, said Dr. Robert Newcomb, professor emeritus and historian of the College of Optometry.

In between was the development of optometry away from the field of physics, away from the College of Optometry, and into a niche of its own in the medical campus. “(The progress in this last century) really mirrors the profession of optometry as a whole.

Optometrists have gone from working in jewelry stores to people giving prescription glasses to primary healthcare physicians who diagnose and treat all aspects of vision,” Zadnik said.

And it seems they’re not done yet.

Zadnik and others at the College of Optometry expect to see even more progress in the next 100 years.

“Optometrists are going to become specialized and we will have people focused on various clinical aspects, binocular vision, sports injuries, perceptual problems, and the list goes on,” Newcomb said.

Ph.D. students are expected to do research in

vision science and become leaders in the profession at OSU and beyond, he said.

With continual development in vision science through research and academic studies, some optometry students said they plan to change some of the misconceptions that existed in the field’s beginning.

“The biggest misconception is that (optometry) is just contact lenses and glasses, and this is what is changing from years ago to the future,” said Hafsa Mohiuddin, a first-year graduate student in optometry.

Harmin Chima, a fourth-year in optometry, said he would like to see a greater awareness about eye health in the next century.

“I would like to see (in the coming years) a greater awareness in the importance of ocular health, especially in a public standpoint,” he said. “We typically neglect problems until it gets bad, and optometrists are part of the solution to preventing that.”

Others, like first-year optometry student Brian Rashid, said it’s nice to belong to a college with

strong academics and traditions.

“It’s so cool to be a part of a college that is not only academically reputable, but has tradition and culture within it specifically and at Ohio State as a whole,” he said.

The college celebrated its accomplishments and 100th birthday Friday night with 850 guests, including students, alumni and community members, Zadnik said.

Alumni and past deans gave speeches, and guests heard a performance from the OSU Marching Band. Brutus Buckeye made an appearance as well.

“This program is a great experience because of the strong faculty and alumni, all who are involved on a national level in terms of research and academics,” Chima said.

The College of Optometry is not alone in celebration.

The OSU College of Medicine and College of Nursing are also celebrating centennials this year.

A commemorative event will be held in November to honor the health sciences trio, Newcomb said.

Defeated from 1A is plenty of time for OSU to salvage its season.

“It’s a long season, and anything can happen.

There are a lot of games to be played across America, so we have to wait and see,” Perry said. “We have to play Buckeye football and, if we do that, we will put ourselves in a situation for something. We don’t know what it is yet, but we’re hoping.”

The Buckeyes will have to do more than hope if they want a shot at a major bowl game or a chance to make the first-ever College Football Playoff. With Michigan and Michigan State dropping prime-time games against ranked opponents, the Big Ten appears to be on the outside looking in on a playoff spot.

Sophomore safety Vonn Bell, who made a diving interception in the second half, said in order for the Buckeyes to be successful, the team cannot become divided.

“We need to get better and stay together,” he said. “There’s a lot of things that need to be fixed but we’ll be back to the drawing board tomorrow.”

That drawing board will include getting back to the basics and regrouping to turn the loss into motivation, Perry said.

“Put in the work, watch film. Make

corrections, really study your opponent, be professional,” Perry said. “That’s going to be the one thing is you can’t let this loss get in the way of preparing for future games. We’ve got to keep rolling, because we could make a positive thing out of this.”

Later this week, the Buckeyes are set to take on the Kent State Golden Flashes, who are coming off of back-to-back losses to Ohio University and the University of South Alabama to start their season.

Kent State coach Paul Haynes spent seven years as an assistant at OSU, including one year as co-defensive coordinator in 2011 when current co-defensive coordinator Luke Fickell assumed the head-coaching role after the resignation of Jim Tressel.

Haynes and his staff are not only entering Columbus with an 0-2 record, they are also dealing with the death of one of their starters, Jason Bitsko, who passed away just 10 days before the start of the season.

Bitsko, who was a high school teammate of OSU senior quarterback Braxton Miller at Huber Heights Wayne High School, passed away Aug. 20 because of what police said at the time was an undetermined medical issue.

The Buckeyes and Golden Flashes are scheduled to kick off at noon on Saturday at Ohio Stadium.

Protests from 1A is owned by the Beta Nu Building Association,” she said in an email. “Neither the OSU chapter, nor the national organization has any say or control over contracts related to the project.”

The Beta Nu Building Association buys and sells properties for the sorority, according to the chapter’s website.

Rutner said because Beta Nu Building Association is a private nonprofit organization, it’s under no legal obligation to use unionized labor.

“It was the responsibility of our general contractor, Ruscilli Construction, to invite subcontractors to bid on the project. We were not part of the bidding or award process. However, we did review awards before they were issued,” she said.

Union contractors, however, were invited to bid on the job, Rutner said.

“When the invitation to bid was issued for our project, Ruscilli absolutely included union subcontractors in our pool,” Rutner said. “Specifically, both local union carpenter contractors, OCP (Contractors) and Valley (Interior Systems), were invited to bid and neither submitted bids, citing being too busy with other projects and therefore taking themselves out of our potential worker pool from the start. Multiple other unionized trade shops were invited to bid as well and gave us the same response.”

Jim Melaragno, vice president of the Valley Interiors Columbus office, said in an email that the company had other obligations when the project was up for bid.

“We were asked by Ruscilli Construction Company to bid, however at that time, we had all our estimators slated to bid on other work,” he said. “We can’t bid every project, so we also try and look at which projects also fit into our work schedule with the manpower available.”

Rutner said no other union shops bid for the job.

“For the union to now be protesting our project, making it appear as though their workers were left out of the process, feels a bit disingenuous,” she said.

Cleveland Construction declined to comment.

According to its website, Cleveland Construction has done projects all over the country, including the George Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston and the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C. Despite the protests, the Beta Nu Building Association is pleased with the project, Rutner said.

“Every one of our construction professionals deserves incredible kudos and respect for their efforts,” she said.

Rutner said in a Sunday email the renovations to the house have been completed.

opinion Confront discomfort instead of running away LINDSEY OATES Lantern reporter oates.57@osu.edu The point of acceptance, I’ve found, is not so much blatant and uninhibited understanding, but a willingness to learn. It’s rooted in the foundation that as human beings, we are always evolving our consciences to make ourselves better people.

I attended an event Thursday at the Ohio Union. The guest speaker was Aamer Rahman, a comedian of Bangladeshi descent who was born and raised in Australia.

In his piece titled “The Truth Hurts,” he talked about hard economic, social and political constructs the world faces today with sharp wit and a cunning nature. There were very few moments where the room was not filled with an uproarious cackling, from myself included. I sat in the very back of the room, hoping to catch a better glimpse of the show as the fly on the wall, pen and notebook in hand, taking down quotes from the piece that I thought might resonate with my audience at The Lantern for a full story. But the story that I sought to find was not the story that I left with.

His jokes were hysterical. Timing was flawless, and the whole room at each punch line would break into unexplainable fits of laughter that seemed to echo into the whole room and shake its core. It didn’t matter what content he spoke of, we all laughed. While speaking of stereotypes, white girls, Muslim haters and terrorist propaganda, he seemed to make the room feel more at ease with just a few sounds into a microphone.

So then why was I starting to feel so queasy?

I had reported many stories before, most not as fun as this one would be. I looked down at my notebook at the questions that I had prepared for Rahman for afterward, and I started to panic.

Now before I continue, I should probably mention some important details. I’ve always been the kind to recognize my privilege in regards to race. I am more ethnically diverse than I come off at first glance, but I do still realize that the basis of my roots are European, meaning that no matter what, I’m still a common white girl.

But even without that mention, I shouldn’t have felt uncomfortable in that room, listening to him speak. I’ve been diversified my entire life, and I know what it’s like to feel like the one who is alone, so why was it so hard now?

Then it hit me. I took a look around the room.

I was one of a handful of white people sitting in

4A

the crowd, and I was beginning to notice some jokes were starting to go over my head. They were going over my head not because I didn’t care, but because I didn’t know. How could I report on this story if I hadn’t lived the struggles he had? How could I possibly tell it without understanding that backstory? How was it fair to my readers for me to just ask this man what his favorite color was, and then leave, further perpetuating the “uncaring white person” stereotype? These were the kinds of questions that ran in my head as I started to feel my palms sweat with worry.

So I didn’t stay for my interview. I ran. After I got back home and started to breathe again, I realized the driving force behind what I had just done. I immediately felt regret and shame, a shame that I had put upon myself in solidifying my thoughts. Of course once I was thinking more clearly, I realized that all of those questions I had were redundant and unnecessary. They were built subconsciously in a part of my brain that at that moment I couldn’t control.

I should have stayed and talked to him. I should have made it a point to get to know more about him than the things he was talking about on the surface. I should have been willing to swallow my pride and go through an uncomfortable situation.

What I learned from this experience of fleeing is that the same pit-of-my-stomach-left-out feeling that I got sitting in the crowd for just 20 minutes, is how most people go about their lives every day.

We are so inclined to assume that living is easy unless provoked specifically, but most of the time judgment comes without warning. I’m not saying that in this moment I felt judged. I’m saying that in this moment I felt more empathy and understanding of what privilege really means than in any other.

I implore you to learn more about your own privileges, and challenge yourself to feel the discomfort. Being at such a grand and diverse university such as ours comes with a ticket of acceptance that I believe every student should carry with them in their back pocket at all times.

If you are unwilling to use that ticket, you should really start to think about the mark that you want to leave on the world.

If Aamer Rahman ever does read this, I want him to know that I’m sorry. I’m sorry that I let my brainwashed social anxiety get in the way of coming to you and learning more about you. I’m sorry I perpetuated the very ideal that I laughed at just moments before I left. And I thank you, for reminding me that even though I know I’ve come a long way, I am only human, and still have a lot to learn. We all do.

5 takeaways from OSU’s loss to Hokies OPINION

JAMES GREGA, JR. AND TIM MOODY Asst. sports editor and Sports editor grega.9@osu.edu and moody.178@osu.edu After winning 35 consecutive home openers, the Ohio State football team lost to the Virginia Tech Hokies, 35-21, in its first game at Ohio Stadium this season.

While a record crowd showed up to cheer on the Buckeyes, the team struggled to move the ball in the first half and couldn’t keep the Hokies away from redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett in the second. After a come-from-behind victory in week one, the loss certainly exposed some previously unknown shortcomings of the Buckeyes while also highlighting some of their stronger points.

The Lantern sports editors reflected on the game and picked five of the most important takeaways from the loss going forward.

1. Barrett can run, but someone has to block first One of the biggest differences between Barrett and injured senior quarterback Braxton Miller is running ability.

While Barrett led the Buckeyes with 50 rushing yards in the first week, he looked even better running the ball against the Hokies. If he can keep flashing that kind of athletic ability, he’ll be able to keep OSU in games the way Miller could do at times.

That said, he’s still not the runner Miller is — especially when he’s being constantly swarmed by the opposing defense.

OSU managed a measly 108 rushing yards against the Hokies, which Miller and former Buckeye running back Carlos Hyde were typically each able to do in any given game last season.

The offensive line was dominated throughout the course of the game, especially when it came to protecting the quarterback.

Barrett is an efficient runner, but he doesn’t have the ability MARK BATKE / Photo editor to escape a collapsing Redshirt-freshman quarterback J.T. Barrett runs pocket that the ball during a game against Virginia Tech on Miller had.

Sept. 6 at Ohio Stadium. OSU lost, 35-21.

2. Talking about playoffs?

It’s still possible that OSU can make the first-ever College Football Playoff — but it’s really unlikely.

Considering the weakness of the Big Ten this season — which was exhibited by OSU, Michigan State and Michigan all losing over the weekend — the Buckeyes may have needed an undefeated record to be one of the last four teams standing by the end of the season. After the loss, junior defensive lineman Adolphus Washington said coach Urban Meyer told the team 11-1 is still a good record, which is true, but it just won’t quite be good enough this season.

The only way OSU — or really any team in the Big Ten at this point — can make the playoffs will be to win all of its games the rest of the way and have teams from other top conferences lose two or even three times.

Can the Buckeyes still salvage the season and challenge for a conference title? Yes. Can they challenge for any more than that? Not likely.

3. Kicking game is suddenly a red flag Freshman kicker Sean Nuernberger was two for two on field goals in his first game against Navy. Against Virginia Tech, he missed both his field goal tries, including a chip-shot of a 27-yarder.

Redshirt-senior kicker Kyle Clinton followed up a poor showing against Navy — he had a kickoff go out of bounds — by doing the exact same thing when the game was on the line against the Hokies.

Finally, sophomore punter Cameron Johnston — who has done little other than impress since he arrived in Columbus — mishit a punt for just 24 yards during the first half against the Hokies. On the ensuing possession, Virginia Tech marched down the short field for its first touchdown of the game.

Nuernberger failed to tally what could have been six extra points while Johnston almost directly led to the Hokies’ first score. That’s a 13-point swing in the kicking game alone. Oh, and winning the kicking game is one of Meyer’s four main points on a “plan to win” sign hanging in the team’s meeting room.

If the special teams problems continue, there will be even more pressure on the OSU offense and defense to perform going forward.

4. The defensive line is as good as advertised Individuals both connected to the OSU team and outside of it have repeatedly suggested the Buckeyes’ defensive line could be the best in the nation. OSU didn’t get to showcase that against Navy, but the traditional attack from Virginia Tech allowed the line to flourish.

Not to say the Hokies’ offense didn’t have success, but the Buckeyes’ defense racked up 10 tackles for loss and a pair of sacks

MARK BATKE / Photo editor

Sophomore defensive lineman Joey Bosa (97) rushes toward Virginia Tech redshirt-junior quarterback Michael Brewer (12) during a game Sept. 6 at Ohio Stadium. OSU lost, 35-21. in the game. Four of those tackles for loss came from defensive linemen, and the other six were essentially made possible purely because the line occupied the Virginia Tech blockers.

The Buckeyes didn’t have a great game all around, but the main players who impressed during the game were names like sophomore defensive lineman Joey Bosa and senior defensive lineman Michael Bennett.

If the line can continue to improve and dominate, they might be able to make up for some of the shortcomings in other areas of the defense.

5. Running back remains a question For back-to-back weeks, Meyer has listed three running backs as co-starters — none of which have made their case to be the permanent starter.

Ezekiel Elliot still seems to be the frontrunner; however, the sophomore running back is averaging just 3.8 yards per carry while splitting carries with redshirt-senior running back Rod Smith and freshman Curtis Samuel.

Samuel, who has seemed the most explosive of the three backs, is averaging 5.9 yards per carry, however, he has yet to find the end zone, something Elliot has done twice already this season.

The effort to replace former Buckeye Carlos Hyde continues for now, and at this rate, might go all season.

OSU’s next game is scheduled for Saturday against Kent State at Ohio Stadium. Kickoff is set for noon.

Freshman shines in Buckeyes’ 1st win AJ KING Lantern reporter lewis-king.1@osu.edu On her parents’ 33rd wedding anniversary, Ohio State freshman forward Maddy Humphrey scored the first two goals of her OSU career and assisted on another to lead the OSU field hockey team to its first win of the season.

The Buckeyes won, 3-2, against Miami (Ohio) on Friday behind Humphrey’s brace and a goal from junior back Emma Royce.

“Those two (goals) are for them,” Humphrey said about her parents in attendance.

OSU picked up the win despite being outshot, 15-2, by the Redhawks in the second half.

“It feels awesome. I love this team more than anything,” Humphrey said. “We’re just a family, and I’ll do anything for them. We’d do anything for each other.”

The Buckeyes came out aggressively looking for shots and struck less than 12 minutes into the game. After being denied twice early, Humphrey snuck in front of the

cage and converted off a pass from senior midfielder Kaitlyn Wagner to put OSU in front.

OSU possessed the ball for much of the first half, but Miami responded with more than eight minutes remaining in the period on a goal from sophomore midfielder Geagy Pritchard from the left corner.

The Buckeyes were not satisfied with a halftime tie, however. With 6:31 to play in the first half, Humphrey showed some of her ball-handling skills. She maneuvered into the scoring zone, hurdled a defender and fired a shot from right to left to put OSU back on top, 2-1.

The third Buckeye goal of the game came with a little more than three minutes to play in the first half when Royce converted off a penalty corner from Humphrey.

“I was really proud of (Humphrey) because she put away goals when we most needed it,” Royce said. “Her goal actually fired me up for scoring the third.”

Humphrey was slowed down in the second half after receiving a shoulder to the chest area early in the period. She returned to the game, but was visibly winded on the field and had to leave the game again.

Miami mounted a late comeback behind

an unassisted goal from Pritchard with just over four minutes to play. However, the Buckeyes held on for the 3-2 victory behind solid goalkeeping from freshman Liz Tamburro, who saved 10 shots in the second half.

OSU is scheduled to have a week off before its next game against the Ohio University Bobcats on Friday.

Royce said it is important that OSU uses the extra time to work on keeping its defensive pressure up for a full 70 minutes of play. “(Miami) got that second goal in and that put a lot more pressure on us that we didn’t need,” Royce said. “We’re gonna be tightening up the defense and keep working on putting those goals away.”

OSU coach Anne Wilkinson said she’s going to let her team get some recovery time in after a hard-earned victory.

“I’m gonna just let them relax and let their bodies repair,” Wilkinson said. “We’ve really been going hard through this entire preseason so we’ll let them just relax a little bit.”

The Buckeyes’ game against Ohio is scheduled for 7 p.m. in Athens, Ohio.

MATTHEW MCGREEVY Lantern reporter mcgreevy.21@osu.edu After dropping three straight games, the Ohio State women’s soccer team swept through a pair of weekend matchups.

Monday September 8, 2014

OSU closed its non-conference schedule by beating Dayton (2-3-1), 4-2, on Friday, before the Buckeyes continued their success Sunday with a 3-0 win against George Mason (1-5-0) in Columbus.

With the victories, OSU improved its record to 3-3-0 entering the start of Big Ten play, scheduled for Friday.

“We needed to score a couple goals, get our confidence up and start playing some better soccer so we can be better prepared for Big Ten play,” senior midfielder Ellyn Gruber said.

The Buckeyes notched their second win of the weekend with help from sophomore defender Taylor Schissler, who recorded two goals against the Patriots.

Scoring opened in the 30th minute of Sunday’s game when Schissler beat redshirt-junior Patriot goalkeeper Briana Kottler for her first collegiate goal.

OSU stretched its lead to 2-0 later in the half when Gruber made a run from midfield to assist Schissler’s second goal of the afternoon.

For the second consecutive game, OSU carried a lead into halftime, but later, coach Lori Walker said she was unhappy with the team’s play in the final 45 minutes.

“I thought our energy was flat. We were up to do nothing,” Walker said.

“I don’t know that the way we played in the second half has made us a better team.”

Walker said the lack of energy is attributable to her team’s youth.

Playing without injured junior defender Marisa Wolf, OSU lacks experience on its backline.

“Usually (Wolf) is what drives us,” sophomore defender Nicole Miyashiro said. “We’ve really had to step up with communicating and going into tackles harder.”

The Buckeyes made drastic improvements to their offense over the weekend, scoring seven goals in two games after tallying just two in four previous games.

“We connected better,” Gruber said. “We weren’t trying to play so individually, we were using each other.”

OSU laid the foundation for its offensive explosion on Friday night by defeating Dayton, 4-2.

Propelled by two first-half goals by freshman forward Sammy Edwards, the Buckeyes added two more goals in the second half to snap their three-game losing streak.

The Flyers were unable to erase OSU’s 2-1 halftime

advantage, despite earning eight of their nine corners in the second half.

Freshman midfielder Sydney Dudley made it 3-1 for the Buckeyes in the 62nd minute before Edwards completed her hat trick in the 76th minute to make it 4-2.

Edwards and Dudley recorded their first collegiate goals in the game, while freshman midfielder Nikki Walts played the full 90 minutes and effectively held Dayton’s leading scorer, junior midfielder Nicole Waters, without a shot.

OSU redshirt-freshman goalkeeper Megan Geldernick finished the weekend with two saves and two goals against.

OSU is scheduled to open Big Ten play this weekend on the road against Indiana and Purdue.

The Buckeyes are set to play the Hoosiers on Friday at 7 p.m. in Bloomington, Ind., and the Boilermakers on Sunday at 3 p.m. in West Lafayette, Ind.

Guitarist brings his ‘desert blues’ to the Midwest rachel feeley Lantern reporter feeley.8@osu.edu Aspiring musicians often make financial sacrifices to follow their dreams. It’s a profession, especially in the information age, that isn’t particularly lucrative. But for Nigerian guitarist Bombino, his instrument has given liberation from poverty and ethnic conflict.

Bombino, whose real name is Omara Moctar, has gained international recognition, and is set to perform at the Wexner Center for Arts on Wednesday as part of the Next@Wex series. The series aims to bring young “music innovators” to its stages at Ohio State.

Bombino, 34, grew up to the northeast of Agadez, Niger, and is part of the regional Tuarag ethnic group. After a drought, Bombino and his family fled to Algeria while he was still a child. Political disputes eventually led to a Tuareg uprising and songs became a popular medium to protest for the rights of Tuaregs. Guitars were readily available and Bombino began to teach himself to play.

He practiced often, and years later found work as a backing musician in Libya.

Inspired by such idols as Dire Straits, Tinariwen and Santana, Bombino said he feels

lucky to be able to entertain others all over the world while simultaneously being able to feed his family.

“From the first time I picked up a guitar, I felt a sense of freedom that inspired me to be a musician,” Bombino said in a translated email from his native language, which is a mix of Middle Eastern dialects. “If I could have an impact on music in the way that these great artists did, and in Tinariwen’s case still do, then I will be truly happy for the rest of my life.” Tinariwen is also composed of Touregs, and their playing of popular music brought them persecution when militant Islamists took gained a foothold in northern Mali in 2012.

Bombino’s guitar prowess is widely recognized, and he was even called the “new guitar hero” by Rolling Stone.

His playing, in part, was inspired by the heroes of old. “I would watch videos of great rock ‘n’ roll stars, and me and my cousins would try to imitate them,” Bombino wrote.

Rolling Stone has described Bombino’s style as “rough, sweet desert blues,” a brand that brought him a natural collaboration in the U.S. His 2013 album “Nomad” was produced

by Dan Auerbach, who is one half of The Black Keys and a native of Akron, Ohio. The

effort made the list of NPR Music’s 50 Favorite Albums of 2013.

His performance is set to be on Mershon Stage’s Black Box, meaning the stage’s curtain will be drawn and another performance stage will be built upon the main. The ropes and bars are all visible, making viewers feel like they are backstage with the artist in an enclosed, private show, said Jennifer Wray, the marketing and media assistant at the Wexner Center.

“It makes for a more intimate experience,” she said.

Wray said Bombino has a way of connecting audiences to musical legends, such as Santana and Jimi Hendrix, while also bringing the tradition of “desert blues,” a popular form of guitar music from the Sahara, to Columbus, which will feel even more personal in the Black Box setting.

“For me, the best part of performing is feeling a connection of joy and love with the audience. There is no better feeling in the world than this,” Bombino said.

The performance is set for 8 p.m. on the Mershon Stage. Tickets are $15 for students and members. General public tickets are $18 and can be purchased online, over the phone at 614-292-3535 or in person from the Wexner Center ticket desk.

Bombino is set to perform on Sept. 10 on the Mershon Stage as part of the Next@Wex series.

Ohio State student thespians experiment in lab series denise blough Lantern reporter blough.24@osu.edu The lights, costumes and music can all be sensorially evocative of a night out in a modern theater. All the flaws and virtues of the actors are heightened when you reduce the stage to people in a box — but the basics are the same. For Ohio State undergrads in theater, there’s a forum to hone their craft without the distractions.

Select students are staging their own creative visions this fall as a part of the Ohio State Department of Theatre’s Lab Series, which has been presenting student-written and directed works every term since 2011.

The Lab Series, formed and coordinated by Jennifer Schlueter — assistant professor and director of undergraduate studies for the Department of Theatre ­— is described by the department as a “student-driven,

in a performance and have creative control, even if the audience isn’t as large, Bellomy said.

“It’s also a way to practice your skills, try new things and collaborate with people you haven’t worked with before,” she said.

“The Swing Set” is scheduled for a 7 p.m. performance Tuesday in the New Works Lab, room 2060 at the Drake Performance and Event Center.

Second-year theater students Eduardo Lozano and John Quigley have a bit of history working on scripts together, and they said there was no hesitation in their decision to submit their play “Bushido” to be performed in the Lab Series.

“One day, we ended up talking outside of (William Oxley) Thompson (Memorial) Library for an hour and a half about our idea for the play,” Lozano said. “I love writing and John has brilliant ideas, so we just put two and two together.”

The students quickly had the script for “Bushido” typed and edited

department-nurtured production series” that allows students to develop and show their own creative content as part of a sequence of black box, zero-dollar budget performances.

One of the first student-authored works to be shown in the series was written by Cecelia Bellomy, a secondyear student studying English and theater with a concentration in creative writing. Bellomy’s piece, “The Swing Set,” is a dramatic stage reading based on a 45-page script she wrote during the summer. “‘The Swing Set’ is about a recent college graduate named Hanna, and it mainly takes place in her childhood backyard,” Bellomy said. “It’s about confronting anxieties and coming to terms with who you are, including the good things, the bad things and any uncertainty about the future.”

Because getting a desired role in the Department of Theatre’s mainstage productions can be a rarity for theater students, the Lab Series is a way for them to get the spotlight

concert review

and were later pleased to find that the play — which Lozano said touches on events and complications regarding a love triangle — was selected as one of the nine productions to be shown in the series this semester.

“This is a chance for us to branch out, expand and be creative,” Quigley said. “We’re absolutely going to grow from this.”

Since meeting in an intro to theatre class their freshman year, Lozano and Quigley have been working together as an artistic team, they said. Recently, they won first place in a short film contest at the Gateway Film Center for their video “Payback,” which already has a sequel in the making.

“Bushido” is also being shown at 7 p.m. in the New Works Lab at the Drake at the end of October. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

Both students have appeared in Lab Series performances as actors, but this is the first time their own content is being featured.

“I just want to stress that anyone who’s interested in film or theater can do this,” Lozano said. “If you have an imagination, you can write a great piece.”

Schlueter has been the sole coordinator of the Lab Series since its opening, but a string of her graduate student assistants — including Francesca Spedalieri, Max Glenn, Elizabeth Harelik and Shelby Brewster — have aided in sustaining and enriching the program, she said.

“What’s great about this is that the grad students get the experience of mentoring undergraduate work and of being a producer for a high turnover production series,” Schlueter said. “This is beneficial for them when they enter the professional world.”

The Lab Series has staged 55 pieces since it began, and 40 of those works are student-devised, Schlueter said. Applications for Spring Semester 2015 will start being accepted and reviewed in October.

Twenty One Pilots in finest form at The Black Keys give memorable, back-to-back hometown shows colorful performance at the Schott

Twenty One Pilots drummer Josh Dun (left) executes a backflip off a piano during the song ‘Holding On To You’ as lead vocalist Tyler Joseph prepares for a jump of his own at the LC Pavilion on Sept. 5.

nick roll Lantern reporter roll.66@osu.edu Pre-teens, post-grads, parents and everyone in between packed into the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion on Thursday night for a home-grown favorite.

Twenty One Pilots, a disproportionatelynamed alternative pop duo from Columbus, sold out the first show of its 2014 Quiet is Violent tour, with a second show Friday sold out as well.

Like a brave reporter, I risked life and limb and moved from the lawn into the pit. I told myself it was for the story, and for the greater good of The Lantern, but to be honest I was a little nervous putting myself into the fray.

Looking back, however, there clearly isn’t any better way to see Twenty One Pilots. Coming out to “Guns for Hands” and donning black hoods and masks concealing their faces, singer Tyler Joseph and drummer Josh Dun came out ready for the same thing as the crowd — an intense show.

Monday September 8, 2014

After a passionate opening, the stage went dark, and a recorded narration, in a British accent, spoke, repeating “Only skeleton bones remain, only skeleton bones remain,” until Joseph and Dun appeared on stage again, only this time-wearing skeletonoutlined hoodies and masks, and performing the much more intense and darker, “Ode to Sleep.”

The narration spoke in between songs about “his” favorite artists, such as DJ Khaled, that he listened to in his car — revealed to be a Bugatti — prompting samples, done by Joseph on the ukulele, of Khaled’s “All I Do is Win” and Ace Hood’s “Bugatti,” much to the amusement of the crowd.

The banter between the British recording and Joseph continued and eventually transitioned to the ’40s pop song “Fools Rush In.”

Sarai Exil / Lantern reporter

Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys performs at the Schottenstein Center on Sept. 5. The rock duo, which also includes Patrick Carney on drums, kicked off its Turn Blue World Tour in Columbus.

regina fox Lantern reporter fox.1001@osu.edu The Schottenstein Center was feeling anything but blue Friday night as thousands of adoring fans flocked to take in The Black Keys’ Columbus stop on the band’s Turn Blue world tour.

Patrick Carney sat down at his drum kit and Dan Auerbach positioned himself in front of his mic with a guitar slung across his body. The set resembled an old vaudeville scene with a theatrical red curtain backdrop, several sets of theater lights on pulleys on either side of the stage and lots of box speakers positioned around the stage. “Next Girl” was up first with “Your Touch” on deck and “Gold on the Ceiling” in the hole.

Before the latter song, the red curtain backdrop fell to reveal a ruffled, royal blue curtain behind several racks of studio lights that illuminated the stage in a beautiful way.

“It feels so good to be back in Ohio,” Auerbach took a moment to say before moving right along with the set list.

Carney and Auerbach, originally from Akron, Ohio, are a couple of suave dudes. While they do have bass and keyboard accompaniment, it’s virtually a two-man show. The wardrobe selections complimented the tasteful stage: Auerbach wearing some blue jeans and a white T-shirt and Carney sporting a black button-up and his trademark black frames.

Most of the time, the instruments overpowered the vocals, making it hard to distinguish one song from another, but with the combination of the dark, driving guitar chords and incessant rhythm, The Keys really rocked.

Auerbach, the lead singer, has such a thick, musky voice that sounded as good live as it does on the album, and is showcased in “Too Afraid to Love You” because of the softer instrumental accompaniment. “Dead and Gone” is one of my favorite Keys songs, which was up next followed by “Gotta Get Away.”
