Mirror Lake is once again set to be closed off by fences this week as work begins to install pumps, meters and underground piping.

More jobs opening in analytics

Mirror Lake is set to be fenced off starting on Monday as work begins once again to make the campus landmark more sustainable.

A well was drilled and tested as a part of a sustainability study that concluded last year, Dan Hedman, spokesman for Administration and Planning, said in an email. He added that the drilling of the well and the testing of the water cost $56,000.

The university is now investing in infrastructure so the groundwater well can be a long-term solution for the lake, Hedman said.

The project involves draining the lake again and

installing pumps, meters and underground piping from the well to the lake.

The lake was drained after the 2013 Mirror Lake jump to allow for work on a sustainability study aiming to prevent water loss because of leaks in the lake’s structure. The study was also set to address maintenance issues related to deterioration of the lake’s walls.

The lake was refilled in August.

This phase of the project is set to cost $160,000, Hedman said, funded by Administration and Planning.

The work is set to be completed in May, depending on the weather, Hedman said.

“As always, we consider all factors related to the timing and realize there is never a perfect time

OSU adds new business analytics minor KHALID MOALIM Asst. multimedia editor moalim.2@osu.edu Being able to predict trends is shaping up to be a marketable skill in the world of business.

Business analytics, a field which uses statistics and other techniques to study data and forecast trends, is projected to face a shortage of 140,000 to 190,000 people with deep analytical skills by 2018, according to research done by consulting firm McKinsey & Company.

Because of this projected job growth in analytics, Ohio State’s Fisher College of Business is adding a business analytics minor, which is set to be available to students in Fall Semester.

The minor will consist of 15 credit hours, including nine required hours and six hours of elective courses, according to the college’s website.

“We created three new courses that will be taught out of the business school, which you can think of as a sequence,” said Ralph Greco, the director of the Business Analytics Initiative at Fisher, a focused curriculum of business analytics for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as practicing managers, according to the Fisher website.

The courses are put into frameworks of descriptive analytics, where students learn to identify behaviors and trends, predictive analytics, where students use historical patterns to predict future outcomes, and prescriptive analytics, where students learn about decision-making

Study finds OSU students are making a ‘bold’ discovery

Pizza Rustica serves its last slice

MICHAEL HUSON Lantern reporter huson.4@osu.edu It might not be surprising that, at times, some students find themselves searching for the right word, and in turn, searching for a dictionary.

What might be surprising is that a popular online dictionary has done some searching of its own. Specifically, it’s done research among lookup entries at some U.S. universities, including Ohio State.

Dictionary.com has determined the most popular word searched on its website among students at OSU in 2014 was “bold.”

Yes, bold.

According to a Dictionary.com analysis, bold appeared more than any other word at OSU from within a sample of more than 10 million searches in zip codes associated with OSU’s campus, including nearby, studentpopulated off-campus neighborhoods.

OSU was one of 100 universities from which data was collected, said Rebekah Otto, director of content at Dictionary.com.

campus FCC chairman praises net neutrality decision OSU alum also highlights his roots, encourages students to intern in DC JEREMY SAVITZ Lantern reporter savitz.3@osu.edu Discussing his role in last month’s Federal Communications Commission’s net neutrality decision, FCC Chairman and Ohio State alumnus Thomas Wheeler returned to Columbus to discuss how this technological debate will impact students at his alma mater.

“I believe that the result will be overwhelmingly positive for consumers and innovators,” Wheeler said. “I also firmly believe it is a positive as well for network operators who now have regulatory certainty with no impact on their consumer revenue streams.”

Wheeler spoke at the OSU Moritz College of Law symposium on “The Future of Internet Regulation” on Friday and was adamant that the new regulations were the right choice.

“For more than a decade, the Commission has grappled with the issue of how best to preserve Internet openness,” Wheeler said. “The question has not been whether to protect and promote an open Internet — that has been the bipartisan policy of Republican and Democratic chairs alike — but how best to achieve that objective. Last month, the FCC moved to settle this dispute once and for all, adopting the strongest open Internet protections ever proposed by the Commission.”

The FCC’s Open Internet Order was “designed to protect free expression and innovation on the Internet and promote investment in the nation’s broadband networks,” according to the FCC website.

The new rules apply to both fixed and mobile broadband service. They state Internet service providers cannot block, slow down or prioritize specific content.

Peter Shane, the OSU Moritz College of Law Jacob E. Davis and Jacob E. Davis II Chair in Law, said critics argue that the new net neutrality rules will limit potential profitability of the Internet for service providers. Fewer profits will mean less investment in the infrastructure, he said, which will work to the detriment of consumers. However, Shane said he doesn’t agree with these arguments.

“If there were more competition between Internet service providers, then maybe I would be more confident in the marketplace to yield pro-consumer behavior,” Shane said.

Wheeler said it’s obvious that service providers have one objective, and that is to operate “free from control by their customers and free from oversight from government.”

“If they succeed, then, for the first time in America’s communications history, private gatekeepers will have unfettered power to control commerce and free expression,” Wheeler said. “The true choice is between protecting

FCC Chairman and Ohio State alumnus Thomas Wheeler returned to Columbus on March 27. the gatekeepers or protecting consumers and insurgents who wish to boost the greatest strength of America’s economy, namely innovation.”

Shane said he sees the new regulations as having a high degree of generality, which is a good thing.

“From my point of view, the rules that the FCC has adopted, which have a high degree of generality, seem to be consistent with the goal of user innovation, and therefore I like them,” Shane said.

In addition to speaking with students about his job, Wheeler also took the opportunity to reflect on his time at OSU in an interview with The Lantern.

Wheeler graduated from the OSU Fisher College of

Business in 1968 and said he showed a knack for business from a young age.

“I was right here in Columbus and this university is what we could afford,” Wheeler said. “I have always been a fierce Buckeye. When I was growing up, I ran my own little business where I printed up pennants and such with the Ohio State logo and sold them at football games. I would sell them to the point where I made enough money to go to a scalper to buy a ticket and go to the game.”

His love of OSU football has not diminished a bit, and Wheeler said he has even spread that love internationally.

Last year’s sustainability study determined groundwater was a viable option for sustaining the lake, Hedman said.

The study aimed to enhance the lake’s sustainability and safety.

The sustainability study cost about $28,000, Hedman said. As another result of that study, gravel was poured into Mirror Lake

last May to reduce its overall depth to 5 feet to use less water and make the lake more sustainable, Hedman said.

Columbus-based Teemok Construction is set to be the contractor, Hedman said.

Teemok Construction did not immediately respond to a call for comment Sunday afternoon.

Some students said they felt the construction would be a positive change for the university.

“I feel like OSU is always trying to better itself, so making Mirror Lake more sustainable is a good idea,” said Logan Sherman, a second-year in social work.

Katie Julian, a second-year in pharmaceutical sciences, however, said she thinks the fences could present some issues when it comes to pedestrian traffic.

“I think it’s kind of inconvenient when they block off the paths because it’s a way I take to class,” she said.

Ainsley Camp, a third year in strategic communication and English, said the construction wouldn’t affect her because her classes aren’t near Mirror Lake. She added that she thought the construction would help the lake’s sustainability, which would allow Mirror Lake to remain a campus landmark for years to come.

“Hopefully one day, when my kids go here, they can jump in Mirror Lake, too,” Camp said.

Bold from 1A location, student population size and university type, Otto added.

The schools surveyed ranged from private universities like Stanford University, where “blithe” came out on top, to the U.S. Military Academy, where “ethics” proved most popular.

Other universities’ most popular searches included “sustainability” at Harvard University, “Judeo-christian” at the University of Notre Dame, and “gag” at the University of Wyoming.

Otto said Dictionary.com’s analytic team found the results quite interesting, in that the top-searched words at the university level deviated broadly from words typically looked up on the website.

“At universities, students seem to be gravitating toward exciting and unique words, like ‘cubism,’ ‘pneumatic,’ ‘maelstrom’ or even a word like ‘bold,’” she said.

Otto said OSU students shouldn’t feel underwhelmed or disappointed with the results, and that reasons for bold lookups could be attributed to students taking design courses, investigating font types or checking up on literary descriptions.

“People go to the dictionary for all sorts of reasons,” she said. “They go to the dictionary a lot of times because they already know what a word means, but they’re trying to use it in a new way, or they’ve heard it used in a new way and aren’t entirely sure what it means in this context.”

Bold can be defined several ways, including “not hesitating to break the rules of propriety,” “necessitating courage and daring” and “striking or conspicuous to the eye,” according to Dictionary.com.

Otto said the dictionary is a solid resource for students trying to “distill the meaning of a word,” while trying to seek out new ways to express an idea.

“Most of what college students do is spend their time writing papers, responding to short essay questions and really growing their own voices, so when they leave school, they can communicate,” she said.

Javier Angel, a fourth-year in linguistics, said he feels the word is pretty straightforward, but understands that it might confuse students coming across it in an unfamiliar context.

“Different senses of the word ‘bold’ are appropriate for different contexts, and maybe that causes some confusion,” he said. “Maybe it has different senses that people aren’t sure whether or not fit in a certain context.”

He added that some words might prove to be especially confusing for some international students or students who have learned English as a second language.

Kelley Fitzgerald, a third-year in nursing, said she could imagine students looking up the word to find different ways of using it, but that the bold result still caught her a little off guard.

“It’s definitely surprising,” she said. “It’s not a hard word to understand, and it’s a pretty common one.”

Rounding out the top five most-searched words at OSU were “affect,” “autotroph,” “sociopath” and “heterotroph,” Otto said.

Evan Thomas, a Ph.D. candidate in English, said that bold might be included in words commonly thrown around by students that require further investigation online.

“Maybe bold is something that people feel very confident (saying) in conversation, but in private, they might feel like they need to check it out,” he said. “In private … they’re willing to admit that they don’t know.”

Thomas said he believes in the “dictionary habit,” which is making the habit of using a dictionary on a regular basis, 100 percent, and added that he thinks students shouldn’t feel timid double-checking the meaning of a word.

“I recommend that my students always use a dictionary when reading through nearly anything,” he said. “Some really surprising things can develop from that habit.”

Fitzgerald said she has made a habit of investigating new words, adding that she looks up at least one new word every day. She said her most recent search was “accusatory” on Thesaurus.com.

“I look up words a lot,” she said. “I do it all the time — at least once a day.”

No data was provided concerning popular search entries among University of Michigan students, but Fitzgerald offered a guess.

“Probably ‘Ohio State,’” she said laughing. “They’re just so curious about us all the time.”

Fitzgerald said she understood that was a bold assumption.

campus Analytics from 1A using data, according to the college website.

Greco said one factor that went into the development of the minor was the driving need for data-skilled individuals in the job market.

“When you get enough of those (job posts), you stand back and go ‘you know what, we can open up the opportunities for our students by x percent by offering this minor,’ because now there’s jobs they can apply to that maybe a year ago or two they couldn’t,” Greco said.

Analytics can be applied to a variety of careers. For example, a company might study the data from a five minute video on social media, or a local business might gather data from past events to improve future operations, Greco said.

However, Elliot Bendoly, a professor of management sciences at Fisher, said people usually have the misconception that statistics is the only part of analytics.

“You don’t have to be a statistician to be someone who is working in analytics,” Bendoly said. “Statistics is presumably not where the sun rises and where the sun sets. It’s part of a toolbox of approaches.”

Greco said analytics entails “using data, whether it’s big or little, any kind of size data, to help people find insights to answer some questions they might have.”

The development of the minor is also part of OSU’s 10-year Discovery Themes initiative, which plans to expand on research and hire new faculty in the areas identified by some OSU officials as university priority areas, according to the Discovery Themes website.

Launched in 2012, the Discovery Themes target health and wellness, energy and environment, and food production and food security. The $400 million plan includes expanding research and hiring new faculty.

In an interview with The Lantern on

Tuesday, OSU Provost and Executive Vice President Joseph Steinmetz said data analytics is an important initiative because it can be applied to all three discovery themes.

Steinmetz said the university is in the process of hiring 39 faculty members for the data analytics initiative, with a goal of eventually hiring between 65 and 70 faculty members in this area.

“We’re going to add 65-70 (faculty members) to data analytics, and we have about 150 or more already on campus, so it’ll be a big core group,” he said.

“It gives us the opportunity … to focus some of more specific things related to the academics in the university, so we’ll probably have faculty that come in whose scholarship is actually the analytics of academic data.”

First-year biomedical engineering

student Jayanth Rajan said he thinks there is a better way to get students interested in analytics than creating a minor.

“I think there are many people not aware of the analytics issue, but I do think there are people who are interested in certain topics,” Rajan said. “I don’t think people are going to choose that naturally.

If those topics are weaved into (existing) classes, then I think it would be better overall.”

But other students said they believe creating the new minor is a good move by the college.

“There is a growing field in that area I believe, so I think it’s very good that they are adding the business (analytics) minor,” said James Michael Etheridge, a thirdyear in physics. “It sounds like it would make sense.”

In an interview with The Lantern on March 24, OSU Provost and Executive Vice President Joseph Steinmetz (pictured) said data analytics is an important initiative because it applies to all three discovery themes.

FCC from 2A He brought his daughter’s husband, who was a professional rugby player from Ireland with a mindset that there is no sport as exciting as rugby, to an OSU football game. After bringing him to the ‘Shoe, Wheeler said, they still have arguments over which is the better sport, but his son-in-law clearly believes that OSU football is the better spectacle. Wheeler said it got to the point that when his son-in-law’s parents first came to the United States to visit, their trip was scheduled around the OSU football schedule.

Though a lot has changed since Wheeler’s time at OSU, the structural development is by far the greatest, he said.

“The tremendous building going on here at OSU is the biggest change,” Wheeler said. “I graduated from Fisher College and we used to be in Hagerty Hall and now there is that great Fisher campus. I was also very involved in student activities at the Ohio Union, and now of course there is a brand new Ohio Union.”

Though the reason for Wheeler’s visit was the symposium on the new Open Internet Order, he said there was one thing he wanted OSU students to know.

they would be closing, and I got the vibe from him last night it was a very sudden choice for them. I had texted the manager earlier this week with no response.”

Since 2013, the Gateway has seen the closings of several restaurants, including Kildare’s Irish Pub, Gooeyz and Charlie Bear: Land of Dance. Finish Line and the Ohio Art League also left the area in 2014.

After the closure of Gooeyz last year, former co-founder Lanne Bennett told The Lantern that the building that housed Gooeyz was poorly maintained and poor foot traffic in the Gateway made it a hard location to operate.

Bennett and Charlie Bear owner Ted Lawson had also criticized Campus Partners, an off-campus business arm of Ohio State, for being a difficult landlord.

Campus Partners president Amanda Hoffsis and diDonato had not returned requests for comment on Pizza Rustica’s leave as of Sunday night, but the sign affixed to the closed pizzeria’s storefront said that catering and delivery are still available from Pizza Rustica’s downtown location.

“I am very disappointed with the number of OSU students who are in Washington in internships and clerkships,” Wheeler said. “I am going to be meeting with the dean of the business school to specifically say the door is open.

We want Fisher College interns at the FCC and I hope other students will come too. We are responsive and there are great opportunities and we have our door wide open for students of Ohio State.”

(Above) A plan from Lauren Davis’ design, ‘Flourish,’ which envisions a center for children that encourages sustainability.

(Below) Brittany Layton’s design, ‘Jot,’ which theorizes a combination of traditional journaling with social media.

Lauren Davis has always been passionate about the environment.

“Whenever I’d watch The National Geographic channel and a tiger would die or kill a deer, I would bawl my eyes out,” said the fifth-year in interior design.

As she and her love for the environment grew, Davis knew she wanted to help preserve it. She was driven by this instinct to create “Flourish,” an environmental education center for children, for her final project that will be featured in the Department of Design Spring Exhibition.

The exhibition will showcase the works of 45 undergraduates from the three majors: interior design, industrial design and visual communication design. It will also include the works of four Master of Fine Arts students from two majors: design research and development, and digital animation and interactive media.

Davis said “Flourish” is a design for a center with an after-school program where children, ages 4 to 12, can go to learn about sustainability while their parents are still at work. She said it would also be open during the day for school-related field trips and for those children who are home-schooled. There are different interactive walls within the design, she said. One is a chalkboard where they can write “green”-related pledges, while another is a touchscreen wall that displays images and sounds of endangered species, like the Siberian tiger, when a child touches it.

Hannah herner For The Lantern herner.12@osu.edu In an attempt to shine light on local music, The Lantern’s “Columbus’ Own” is a weekly series that will profile a new Columbus band each week.

Inspiration for the title of The Helionauts’ January debut album, “El Rancho Notorious,” came from a 1952 western with the same title.

“The western is kind of like a laid-back almost whimsical story, but the underlying themes are more dark. That correlates with our songs because they might not sound too dark on the outside but if you listen to the lyrics more … there’s deeper meaning than you’d notice on the first listen,” said frontman Adam Brandt.

Brandt formed his Columbus band in 2011 with drummer Jeff Earl and bassist Chris “Woody” Moebius.

Lead guitarist Eli Zimmerman completed the band in April 2012 when he responded to their Craigslist ad looking for a guitarist.

Since the band was created, the members have been writing and producing songs that would end up on the album.

“It was a long process being able to put everything together. We would record two or three songs here and there, and last summer we were able to get in and knock it all out, and it’s a big weight off of our chests,” Moebius said.

The Helionauts were also inspired by the Greek

Monday March 30, 2015

mythological story of Icarus, who flies too close to the sun with homemade wings, causing his downfall.

In Greek, “Helio” means “sun” and “naut” means “explorer.”

“The whole story of Icarus was made to explain overambition. That ties in with the band because in a sense we’re like that. We’re very ambitious and we spend a lot of time doing this and it might not be for anything and we’ve accepted that from the beginning,” Brandt said.

“It’s kind of more about embracing that idea of Icarus and shooting for more,” Zimmerman added.

The title track, “El Rancho Notorious,” and “Riff Raff,” which is Brandt’s favorite track, feature unexpected instruments including wind chimes from Zimmerman’s mother’s porch and a spring drum, which makes stormlike sounds.

“I like those touches to the album because then it doesn’t feel so bland,” Zimmerman said.

Before “El Rancho Notorious,” came “From Meadow Road,” an EP named for the house in Grandview that Brandt and Earl lived in from 2012 to 2014.

“We had a spare bedroom in that house and a couple of microphones that we didn’t know how to use, so we just set them up and experimented. That’s where the band really took its shape was in that house because that’s where we held all of our practices. Adam and I lived there for two years and those were the most formative two years of the band,” Earl said.

The 2015 Student Film Festival is set to be held at the Gateway Film Center on Wednesday, showcasing 12 short films from OSU students.

The festival is being hosted by Ohio State student organizations Film and Video Society and Mosaic Magazine, and is the second of what the society hopes will be an annual event.

The films, chosen from 35 submissions, will be screened at 7 p.m. and each will be introduced by its director. The screenings are expected to last about two hours, followed by an after-party in the Gateway’s lounge with free food and soft drinks, according to the president of OSU’s Film and Video Society, Adam Skov. “(The festival) is a blast for filmmakers, film lovers and students who just want to see some entertaining movies and eat some food, all for free,” said Matt Hendrix, a fourth-year in film studies and video production and treasurer of the Film and Video Society. “It is a way to showcase student work to their peers and the Columbus community, an opportunity not readily available to the film students here on campus. Although the film community is strong, it is small and doesn’t have an abundance of resources or opportunities to experience real elements of the industry.”

Matthew Swift, program coordinator for OSU’s Film Studies program and one of the festival’s

three judges, said the judges assign each film two numbers from one to 10. The first number rates the objective, technical aspects of the film and the second number rates subjective aspects of the film, such as how much the judge liked it. All of the judges’ numbers are then averaged together to give each film a single score and the movies are then ranked. This process was used to select the top three submissions, which will be revealed at the festival.

The top three filmmakers receive $100, $50 or $25 Amazon gift cards as prizes. .

Swift said the show includes “a nice mix of kinda every kind of film that you might see,” including documentary and animation.

Skov, a fourth-year in business and graduate student in Chinese, said the festival is a great opportunity for students.

“Nowadays there’s a lot of student filmmakers at OSU and all over the world and sharing films is easier than ever before, but rarely do you get to see your film in something like a movie theater,” he said.

Skov added that he appreciates the diversity of the films and filmmakers.

“I would encourage other people to take the opportunity to see something you wouldn’t usually see at a local movie theater and see something made by people you pass on the Oval every day,” Skov added.

Tickets are free the day of the event and doors will open around 6:45 p.m.

Design from 5A Hannah Kruse, a sixth-year in industrial design, chose to recreate the stadium concession-stand experience through her conceptual project, “Crave.”

“It’s (about) organizing the lines, getting them through traffic, and keeping people entertained while they are waiting for their food,” Kruse said.

Kruse’s idea includes features such as a service that allows visitors to pre-order food vouchers and fast passes to skip concession lines, a separate food pickup window, a sectioned-off area from event traffic for the lines and a cart full of leftover concessions that visitors can buy at a discount price while leaving the event.

Brittany Layton, a fifth-year in visual communication design, said she wanted to maximize the experiences of traveling and journaling with her concept of “Jot.” Layton said a smart journal doesn’t exist yet, but it would be a journal with embedded sensors and an attached sleeve with a digital screen that will display the relevant media. “’Jot’ is a two-part system that is comprised of both a mobile application and a smart journal,” she said. “The mobile application collects all of your recordings … and

compiles them all into one place. Then it syncs up with the journal so when you are turning the pages of your journal, which is just a paper journal, the sleeve is populated with pictures and videos that are relevant to each page.”

Thomas Heban, a fourth-year MFA in digital animation and interactive media, created a seven-minute short film called “Here Be Giants” as his final thesis animation.

“It is a narrative story (of) a young boy who is traveling in the footsteps of his grandfather,” Heban said.

Heban said the meanings behind “Here Be Giants” were somewhat personal as he looks up to his parents and grandparents.

“It’s kind of how your perspective of your relationship with (those) people that shape your growth as a young person,” he said.

The Department of Design Spring Exhibition will show Tuesday through April 11 at the Urban Arts Space. A reception will also be held April 1 from 6 to 8 p.m. The conceptual projects will be displayed on large posters, Kruse said.

Admission is free and the space is open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, with extended hours on Thursday until 8 p.m.

time that Brandt and Earl moved to Cincinnati. With two members in Columbus and two in Cincinnati, the band said they appreciate both cities.

“I think Columbus is more progressive and laid-back, more of an ‘anything goes’ type of mentality. Cincinnati has got that busy city feel,” Brandt said.

“It’s a little less personable down there,” Earl said of Cincinnati.

Brandt writes all of the harmonies and lyrics for the songs, with each band member adding their own flair to the tracks which blend blues, rock and funk influences.

“If you listen to this album, there’s a big range in some of the sounds that we have and I think that’s the three of us bringing our style to the songs. But if you listen underneath each song you kind of hear that ‘Adam essence,’” Zimmerman said.

“All in all, the songs are about being your own person and growing from life’s challenges. They are about being a kid cowboy in a world full of hipsters and Kardashians,” according to the band’s website.

“It just seems like people are trying to fit a mold. It happens to be today’s molds are you’re either on the hipster side or on the flashy, preppy, Kim Kardashian side. I always thought that stuff was stupid and I hated it,” Brandt said.

The album cover features real-life kid cowboy, Eli Morgan, whom Brandt discovered and was inspired by while at his nephew’s birthday party.

“Seeing that kid in the cowboy costume really brightened up my whole outlook. I want to be like this kid who just doesn’t give a f--and goes to school dressed up as a cowboy,” Brandt said.

They set up a photo shoot for 5-year-old Morgan, and the winning shot landed on the cover of “El Rancho Notorious.”

“He is a really quiet kid and it was a confidence booster for him.

His mom says he still talks about it. If we take anything from this album, for me, that’s enough,” Brandt said.

The band’s next show is set to be May 21 at the Spacebar at 2590 N. High St.

sports Men’s lax tops Penn State in B1G debut

All Together Synchronized swimming wins 29th National Championship

MOLLY TAVOLETTI Lantern reporter tavoletti.1@osu.edu

MARK BATKE / Photo editor

The OSU synchronized swimming team locked up its 29th national title March 28 with a score of 93.0 at the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion. No other Buckeye sport has racked up as many championships as synchronized swimming.

The Ohio State men’s lacrosse team got back on track in its first-ever Big Ten game, fresh off a 9-0 loss to Notre Dame.

The Buckeyes defeated the Penn State Nittany Lions (3-6, 0-1), 10-8, on Sunday in State College, Pa., after being blown out by the Fighting Irish last weekend. The win came during the first weekend of men’s and women’s lacrosse action in the Big Ten. Penn State scored the first goal of the game just 101 seconds after the opening faceoff, but that proved to be the Nittany Lions’ only lead of the game.

OSU senior midfielder Jesse King answered Penn State’s goal only 16 seconds later, sparking the first of the Buckeyes’ five unanswered goals in the first quarter.

King led the offense with three goals, including his 100th career goal at the 9:20 mark in quarter one. The Victoria, British Columbia, native said his scoring figures are a testament to the players around him.

“I’ve been really fortunate to play around some spectacular players in four years … so it’s been a contribution of our whole team,” King said after the game. “It’s not something I’ve been trying to get towards, but it’s a real honor.”

OSU capitalized on the depth of its offense with 10 goals from six players.

Senior midfielder Turner Evans and junior attackman Carter Brown each nabbed two goals, while senior midfielder David Planning, sophomore attackman J.T. Blublaugh and sophomore midfielder John Kelly each scored one for the Buckeyes.

Along with the offense, redshirt-sophomore goalie Tom Carey held it down for the defense, playing all 60 minutes and tallying six saves.

Penn State picked itself up with four unanswered goals in the fourth quarter, but the effort fell short, ultimately allowing OSU to come away with the win. The Buckeyes are now 1-0 in the Big Ten and 8-3 overall.

OSU is set to return home for its second conference game of the season against Johns Hopkins on Sunday at Ohio Stadium.

‘The slobs’ are looking for their newest member JAMES GREGA, JR. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu Much like the rest of the Ohio State football team, the offensive line is bringing back plenty of experience.

With four starters coming back to Columbus and just one spot open, it appears as though there’s a two-horse race to become a starting member of what the Buckeyes call “the slobs.”

Redshirt-senior Chase Farris and sophomore Jamarco Jones are the frontrunners to replace Darryl Baldwin at right tackle, but offensive line coach and offensive coordinator Ed Warinner said Farris is ahead of the pack.

“He hit stride where we thought he was playing really good towards the end of the (2014) season, but you got a starting lineup, we (were) on a roll. Darryl Baldwin was playing his butt off,” Warinner said Thursday. “If he keeps doing what he’s doing, he’ll be able to take that position over, (but) Jamarco Jones is not by any means just going to let him have it.”

While Jones is behind Farris on the depth chart

for now, he has been getting extensive reps in practice at left tackle with senior Taylor Decker sitting out most of spring practice for rest purposes.

Decker said Thursday that he also believes Farris is the favorite to win the job, but has been pleasantly surprised with the way Jones has been performing in his usual spot.

“I think he is doing a really good job. The one thing I wanted to see personally out of him was consistency and how he practices. I think he is developing that, especially with all of the reps he is getting, he doesn’t have a choice,” Decker said.

“Coach (Urban) Meyer is going to be right there watching him.

Coach Warinner is going to be watching him because they expect a lot out of him.”

Regardless of who wins the job, Warinner said he is pleased with the personnel he has along the offensive front. “I love the chemistry with those guys. They are great people, I love being around them. They are part of a family that we are all a part of,” Warinner said. “Those guys are great, great kids and that’s why we have a great room and so forth.”

Redshirt-junior offensive lineman Pat Elflein, who is set to enter into his second full season as a starter, said the chemistry within the unit is a credit to Warinner’s “very intense” coaching.

“He’s a perfectionist. He won’t let anything slip. No matter what it is, wrong step, whatever, hand placement, if it’s not perfect, he’s on you,” Elflein said Thursday.

“I think that is probably his best quality and that’s why we’ve been playing so good. He has developed so many guys to be great players.”

But while he is a coach and not a player, how does Warinner fit in among the self-named “slobs?”

“I don’t know where that name came from. I didn’t give them that, but I am the head of them. So I am an honorary. I am also trying to lose 10 pounds,” Warinner said with a smile.

“They are always trying to gain their weight. They’re human garbage disposals. Eight-thousand calories a day and they look pretty good doing it. If I keep up with them, you’ll have to get a 4X (shirt) for me.”

With a coach who has developed players and has just one starting spot to fill, Elflein said he is excited to see where the Buckeyes’ front five can go.

“We just have to get everybody on the same page. It’s not easy. That’s our goal is to get everybody bought into the culture and if we can do that, watch out,” Elflein said. “We are going to have a good unit.”

The Buckeyes are set to take to the field for their annual Spring Game on April 18 at Ohio Stadium before beginning the 2015 season on the road against Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va., on Sept. 7.

sports OPINION

A Kentucky win would be a true Cinderella story TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu Everyone loves a Cinderella story, but underdogs running through March Madness to win the NCAA basketball title are bad for the game.

That’s why I’m glad Michigan State — a seven seed — was the lowest ranked team in this year’s Elite Eight. That’s why I’m glad Georgia State and UAB were knocked out after moments of glory, and, most of all, that’s why I’m glad 38-0 Kentucky is writing its very own version of a Cinderella story.

Was it hard for Shabazz Napier to lead seventh-seeded Connecticut to a title last season? Sure, and it was fun to watch.

But that has nothing on what it takes to run the table with 40 straight wins.

Kentucky starts identical twins at guard and two freshmen at forward and has a Naismith Award candidate at center who doesn’t even average 10 points per game.

Coach John Calipari, regardless of questionable activities at past stops in his career, has built perhaps the best team in college basketball history.

Now with the Final Four just around the corner, two more Wildcat wins would be best for the sport.

After tossing Hampton out of the tournament with ease, dispatching Cincinnati and embarrassing West Virginia, Kentucky got its first true test of the tournament. Once again, the Wildcats came out on top, this time against Notre Dame in the quarterfinals.

A date with Wisconsin is the only thing in the way of a return trip to the title game for the Wildcats, but the story this year is much more of a Cinderella than what it was for the then-eighth-seeded men in blue.

I couldn’t care less what their ratings were in high school or how many scholarship offers they had — to take a roster of 15 players and win 40 games in a row would be the most impressive feat in basketball history since UCLA’s 88-game run.

And to an extent, one clean slate with such a young roster under the watchful eye of the nation’s media could be even more impressive.

It’s hard to win a basketball game. It’s even harder to win two. And to keep doing that even after undefeated predictions were coming down before the season started is truly incredible, regardless of who the players are.

Kentucky is the best team this year. That’s not a question, but regardless of how good you are, 40-win seasons don’t come around very often. And by not very often, I mean it has never happened before.

No matter your opinion of Calipari and his recruiting tactics, the Wildcats deserve the title, and will probably get it.

If that projection comes true, it’ll be the best-case scenario for college basketball.

And if you’re still stuck on hoping for a Cinderella story, Courtesy of TNS just remember that there have been the same number of Kentucky sophomore guard Aaron Harrison (left) and junior forward Willie Cauley-Stein celebrate at the end of a 68-66 win against Notre Dame in the NCAA 40-win teams as 16-seeds that won a tournament game.

opinion Why I resigned from Undergraduate Student Government Letter to the editor: Student governments have been traditionally a platform that give students a legitimate voice and are a venue for personal development in involvement.

I am saddened to share with you that in its current state, here, at The Ohio State University, that is exactly what it is not.

Two years ago when I came to Ohio State, I knew that student government was something that I wanted to get involved in.

I wanted to help make things better and improve things on campus, and I wanted to do that immediately. Being someone who is interested in organizational framework, I thought there would be no place better for me in USG than the Judicial Panel, and I sent an email to Tyler Byrum, a former chief justice, and became a clerk. When I joined, there was coherence, competency and a level of civility and understanding between branches.

Today, I am sorry to say that that is no longer true, and I am sorry that I ever sent that email to join what is now one of the most hostile and noncommunicative organizations I have been a part of. All of this, most recently, has been operating under the guise as the open voice of the student body. As a tuition-paying student, I am disappointed to say the least.

To all interested parties, I am more than happy to share what has happened, and I will do so freely, now that I am no longer a member of the organization. First of all in addressing the members of OSU Divest: there will be no special election. I already explained the political pressures that are at work, and they are indeed at work. Flatly, no one wanted to be responsible for taking OSU Divest’s initiative off of the ballot. But truthfully, many people — including those that have accused my actions of simply having a meeting to compromise a solution to a problem and suggesting action as unconstitutional — wanted to see the issue off of the ballot. I never allowed any pressure from them or from anyone else to sway any decision I rendered, but the student body deserves to know that there is much more at work in this organization than simply meets the eye.

Secondly, I would like to address those who have accused me or have ever accused me of not performing my duties as a justice. In any matter, myself and all of my fellow justices have done our job with the utmost integrity. Rather than straying away from making unpopular decisions, I did so and always maintained my honor in doing so. No one in the Judicial Panel is power-hungry, we aren’t subject to political pressures and we have never tried to give ourselves authority that we did not honestly believe that we truly had. In fact, former Chief Justice Brandon Cruz, in agreement with the vice president of the organization, issued a resolution to place a check on ourselves seeing that we could not hold a hearing to settle the brief filed against us. This resolution would have reversed our decision to limit the signature count on initiative petitions, and put claims of unconstitutionality to bed, and the vice president was supposed to introduce this to the General Assembly. In doing this, it would have also not allowed OSU Divest to appear on the ballot, and pressure surrounding all sides of that issue was perhaps too great for the agreed introduction to the General Assembly.

Anyone in General Assembly would know that that resolution was never introduced to them and because of the resolution not being sent, the Judicial Panel was bound in constitutional limbo.

With all of this being said, I really do hope and believe that the incoming body of executive leaders and legislative leaders can make the changes that are necessary to ensure that previous missteps caused by defense of optics rather than adherence to position descriptions will do so, and I truly believe they will. I also hope that they unify the organization, and restore it to a welcoming and open place, rather than a seemingly hostile and advantageous one. It has been so sad to watch friends and acquaintances turn into enemies and accusers, especially at this level. I have experienced no more stress at any time at this university (I’ve been a student since 2011) than in dealing with matters regarding student government this year. That is not the experience that students sign up for. That is detrimental and not developmental. Please, future leaders, restore it to its place as a developmental experience.

To current and future leadership, I recommend the following: 1. Always send out resolutions and disclose relevant information.

2. Maintaining your image is never as important as maintaining your integrity.

3. There are faces and individuals that are affected by press releases.

4. In advocating for mental health, it is important to assess your own actions to ensure that you always embody the behaviors of an advocate, and foster an environment that upholds this at all times.

5. Sometimes a face-to-face conversation is more effective than a press release or not communicating at all.

6. Consider asking for all sides of a story before retelling information that is not fully known.

7. Your justices are in the organization too. Maybe try to get to know them, and invite them to your social functions, date parties and retreats. Also just try talking to them if you have a problem.

8. The Judicial Panel exists not only during elections season, but during the rest of the academic year as well.

9. Past members of this and any organization provide helpful insight to current members. Consider reaching out to them when you need help.

10. Consider how actions might affect someone’s reputation.

11. Please don’t take actions that would make someone who wanted so badly to join an organization want to leave it just as badly.

12. Impeachment is no light process. That is someone’s reputation and someone’s integrity being called into question.

Consider a censure, or a conversation.

13. Remember that we exist as a courtesy of the university and as a representation of all and not just some students.

Lastly, I see that there have been so many errors and so much at play, that I cannot in good conscience sit back and watch it continue. To do this, I am forming the Student Government Review Board, an independent body free from political and social pressures that will serve as a means for students to make USG work for them as it should be. This body will investigate errors and file relevant briefs, including a few briefs that will be filed by myself very soon. It will also exist to aid other organizations and individuals unfamiliar with the nature and

Anyone interested in joining or utilizing my services may do so by emailing me. I have also heard a clear call from students this year that outside student unfamiliarity with the elections bylaws and general processes within USG has led to a disappointing lack of ability to formally participate. Whether you’re a member of OSU Divest or the group Protect OSU — Vote NO on Issue 1, you deserve to participate in your student government.

It is long overdue that students had a chance to connect not only with the organization, but within. It is so evident that students have lost faith in all of USG, and that is in one word, disappointing. In an elections season with record turnout, it is sad that a significant amount of votes went to a campaign started on Yik Yak and Twitter as a joke. (We all love you Cardale and Zeke, and we would have been just as honored if you were president and VP.) But student governance is supposed to be a real, impactful, and check on university administration, which students are encouraged to take seriously. It’s evident that they just do not believe in student government anymore.

I hope to work with you all soon to see a much better day in USG, and I will not rest until I do see that day. I can find no better use and reapplication of my time than ensuring faith is restored, and if that has to happen from the outside rather than under constant fear on the inside, then so be it. I am very excited to see the great things that Abby Grossman and Abby Waidelich bring to the table, and to see a new day in student government, and I can’t wait to see new leadership restore USG to be a developmental and welcoming environment for its members, and to earn the student body’s faith in USG once again.
