Urban overridden

5A

On OSU’s game-tying 2-point conversion Saturday, the Buckeyes didn’t use coach Urban Meyer’s play call.

[ a+e ]

Ohio Stadium was holding its collective breath.

OSU sophomore quarterback and Heisman candidate, Braxton Miller, was lying on the ground, motionless, after suffering an apparent injury. Firstyear coach Urban Meyer, standing over his quarterback, along with the majority of the Buckeyes’ team, stared at the scoreboard in the south end zone in disbelief. “Purdue 20, OSU 14,� it read, with just more than a quarter of play remaining.

About 10 yards away, Kenny Guiton swiftly began to warm up. The redshirt junior backup quarterback took practice snaps from redshirt junior center Corey Linsley and threw 15-yard passes to Buckeye receivers, getting ready to enter the game.

Guiton had been there before — he’d relieved Miller after an injury three previous times this season, and led OSU to a touchdown each time — but never in a situation quite like this.

Miller left the field on a cart, exited the stadium in an ambulance and would not return to action after getting hit on a 37-yard run with 21 seconds left in the third quarter. For the first time in his three-plus year career at OSU, the game belonged solely to Guiton.

A quarter later, the 105,000-plus fans in attendance were again holding their breath. OSU still trailed the Boilermakers, now by eight points, 28-20, with 47 seconds remaining in the game.

Guiton had struggled in replacing Miller. His first drive ended in a 50-yard missed field goal by junior kicker Drew Basil. The second ended in a safety. The third ended in an interception. “I felt like I had let my team down. I’m a backup coming off the bench and everything, I just wanted to do well for my team,� Guiton said of what he was feeling before he got the ball with 47 seconds left on the clock.

His coach picked him, though, and he responded.

OSU redshirt junior quarterback Kenny Guiton points from the line of scrimmage in the 4th quarter of the game Saturday against Purdue. OSU won the game, 29-22. “(Meyer) told me I was going to be OK and everything. I told the offense we need big plays now and we’re going to get it,� Guiton said.

Guiton’s fourth drive ended in jubilation, in a frenzy, that turned the Horseshoe into the very inferno Meyer has been pleading for since he arrived to Columbus. “That was louder than the Nebraska game,�

Meyer said.

The redshirt junior drove the Buckeyes 61 yards down the field with less than a minute to play and no timeouts remaining. His two-yard touchdown pass to redshirt junior wide receiver Chris Fields cut Purdue’s lead to two points with three seconds left on the clock. His lofty toss to sophomore tight end Jeff Heuerman — a two-point conversion — tied the game, forcing overtime.

Guiton’s fifth drive was capped by a touchdown run by junior running back Carlos Hyde. It was the

last drive of the game from Guiton — OSU’s defense stopped Purdue on its lone overtime drive — and it was a game-winning one. “That’s the thing everybody plays football for, to shock everybody and show them what you can do,�

Guiton said.

The career backup was now the hero; the big reason why OSU is 8-0, with its shot at a perfect season still alive, after its 29-22 overtime victory against Purdue Saturday. “He’s a special guy. I hate to say it, but even if he doesn’t complete that pass (to Heuerman) that’s a special kid. He’s all Buckeye now,� Meyer said of his backup quarterback.

As Purdue’s fourth-down pass in overtime fell incomplete and OSU players and coaches rushed the field, Guiton was surrounded by a sea of his teammates.

John Wernecke Asst. multimedia editor wernecke.5@osu.edu Constance Bumgarner Gee is not afraid to speak about her marijuana use and isn’t afraid to write about it either.

The ex-wife of Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee remembers her time as first lady and faculty member at OSU, Vanderbilt University and Brown University in “Higher Education: Marijuana at the Mansion,� her new self-published memoir.

The book’s title references a 2006 article from The Wall Street Journal subtitled “Marijuana at the Mansion,� which investigated Gordon Gee, then-chancellor of Vanderbilt, and his expenditure as a socializing fundraiser.

After five months of reporting by Joann Lublin and Daniel Golden, the front-page story described Vanderbilt’s Board of Trustees as out of touch and unable to contain then chancellor Gordon Gee. The chancellor and his wife helped raise more than $1 billion over five years while spending $700,000 per year entertaining and running the office.

The article also mentions Constance Gee briefly. “In the fall of 2005, university employees discovered

that Constance Gee, a tenured associate professor of public policy and education, kept marijuana at Braeburn (the chancellor’s mansion at Vanderbilt) and was using it there, according to people familiar with the matter.�

In an interview with The Lantern, Constance said the story was upsetting and embarrassing to her. “It had a huge impact on my life. Being outed on the front page of the Wall Street Journal for smoking marijuana is not something I would wish on anybody,�

Constance Gee said.

under pressure to distance himself from the situation, Gordon Gee filed for divorce after 13 years of marriage.

Gordon Gee told Constance Gee he could not stay chancellor of Vanderbilt while married to her. The Board of Trustees, unhappy with the negative exposure, put pressure on Gordon Gee to distance himself from his wife, and he yielded, Constance Gee said. “It was almost an act of self-preservation because the university is him, he is the university,� Constance Gee said. “I wouldn’t wish (divorce) on my worst enemy,�

Constance Gee said in an interview with The City Paper in Nashville. “Even if you want a divorce — and I didn’t — it’s a terrible thing to go through. You used to love them — you married them! I still do love Gordon. And I believe that he still loves me. It just didn’t work out for a lot of reasons, but one of them being that it was so public, and there were a lot of people involved.�

According to the Associated Press, Constance Gee received a lump sum of $320,000 and receives $8,000 a month in alimony.

The two remain friendly after the divorce. In a statement given to The Lantern Gordon Gee said he had “finally had an opportunity to read Constance Gee’s book. She writes with grace, humor and honesty. The

Emily Tara Oller reporter tara.3@osu.edu The Digital First Initiative was implemented at Ohio State about a year ago, and the program that awards iPads to athletes and updates campus technology has continued to grow this school year. The program has been used to update campus computer labs and rewire 354 classrooms for $5,000 each with money that has been cut from other parts of academic life, including wages for some student jobs.

Michael Hofherr, the senior director of OSU learning technology, said In order to keep OSU up-to-date in the digital world, major changes had to be made. “The tagline for Digital First is enriching teaching, learning and research. And that means a lot of things. And most importantly though, it means how are we enhancing our teaching and learning to make an exceptional student learning experience,� Hofherr said.

OSU has 354 general-purpose classrooms that all

need to be rewired to accommodate increased wireless Internet use and to allow teachers to digitally present lectures. All of these changes, however, cost money.

Hofherr said that the majority of the associated costs are repurposed internal funds that were originally intended to be allocatted elsewhere. “We’ve stopped doing (other) things to do things more effectively to pay for this stuff,� Hofherr said.

Shutting down three computer labs on campus has saved money, bringing the number of labs down to six from nine.

The computers at OSU are on a four-to-five year refresh cycle. This means the entire labs get redone, and improvements are made to the computers, desks, chairs and lights. This refresh cycle has been ongoing since the university has had computers, Hofherr said.

Hofherr said the university saves about $110,000 a year in student wages alone by closing some of the labs that are open 24/7.

Saving money in other areas has allowed for 354 campus classrooms to be budgeted for rewiring, which

campus OSU study finds that more education means more debt LIZ YOUNG Lantern reporter young.1693@osu.edu College-educated people were shown to be more likely than those with less education to have a risky amount of debt, according to a recent Ohio State study.

The study was co-authored by Sherman Hanna, an OSU consumer sciences professor. Hanna and the other researchers looked at data from six rounds of the U.S. Survey of Consumer Finances held between 1992 and 2007, according to a university press release.

The study accounted for the fact that those with higher educations generally have higher incomes.

Debt was defined as “rent or mortgage, vehicle leases or loan payments, property taxes, credit cards, student loans and more.� The line for a risky amount of debt was drawn at 40 percent of income, which included data from 25,889 households, according to a university press release. “The fact that education was positively related to having the higher debt burden just sort of raises some questions about how do we solve this,� Hanna said.

It was also found that more renters had a heavy debt burden in 2007 than homeowners, leading to the implication that the financial crisis of 2007 was equally precipitated by all types of households and lenders — not just homeowners and those with less education, according to the release.

Guiton from 1A “Kenny G! Kenny G!� they yelled, embracing Guiton with bear hugs and high-fives.

For OSU, Guiton’s performance — 77 yards passing, one touchdown and one interception — did not come as a surprise. The team was happy for Guiton — thrilled, more likely — but numerous Buckeyes said they knew he had it in him. “Kenny Guiton is like (Los Angeles Lakers guard) Kobe (Bryant) in clutch time. He knows the game and I feel like he’s a coach for us on offense.

He’s doing a good job. I never lose faith in Kenny,� said junior defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins.

OSU senior defensive end John Simon agreed. “Everyone on the team had full faith in (Guiton) at that point,� Simon said.

The Buckeyes were disappointed and worried when Miller went down, sure. But with the respect they have for Guiton, they were excited to see him get a true opportunity to make a name for himself.

In 2007, the U.S. entered into the “Great Recession� caused mostly by the burst of a “housing bubble.� This recession led to a peak unemployment rate of about 10 percent in October 2009, according to data from the research group Moody’s Analytics based in U.S., Europe, Asia and Japan.

The recession led to an increase in U.S. unemployment and home foreclosure.

Between 1992 and 2008, the total percentage of Americans who were paying more than 40 percent of their income to debt increased from 17 percent in 1992 to 27 percent in 2007. There was only one short drop-off period around 2001 where this percentage decreased when the U.S. went through a short recession, according to the press release.

In 2011, the average student loan debt increased more than 5 percent for graduates. Ohio students had the seventh highest average debt in the U.S. at more than $28,600, according to findings from the Institute for College Access and Success, a non-profit higher education research group.

Some OSU students felt like this debt was dependent on a student’s parent’s financial status. “It does depend on the student, but it also depends on whether or not their parents have enough money to pay, you know. It just depends on what the student decides to do with their future,� said Kristina Akhmametyeva, a second-year in biology. “The only reason I don’t have debt right now is because I have my parents paying for my education, but if I didn’t have my parents paying, I would have just as much debt as anybody else.�

Other students had an optimistic take on their financial future. “I feel like in the end we’ll finally get out of this recession and jobs will appear, so that’ll change and having the experience of being at college and getting a degree will help in the end. Right now it does look a little darker, but picking a major where there’s lots of openings and different options for it also helps to make sure that I’m not in debt as much,� said Lauren Leddy, a second-year in electrical engineering.

The study found that people who reported being optimistic about the future were also more likely to have heavier debt burdens, according to the press release. “Since it’s optimism that leads some households to take on high burdens, and it may be that up until about 2006, maybe the optimism was justified by a lot of the people, but obviously in 2007 and 2008, we just had basically the worst economic crisis in a lifetime,� Hanna said. “In a

“(He’s) coaching people all the time, so any time he gets in the game, the team gets excited. You never want your starter to go down, but any time you get to see Kenny go out there and perform and get everything he deserves — which he does — it’s awesome to see,� Simon said.

Every practice, Guiton shadows Miller. He stands about 15 yards behind the Buckeyes’ starting quarterback, mimicking Miller’s moves on each play.

That’s the life of a backup quarterback. Guiton always has to be prepared to come into the game if Miller goes down. He hasn’t always been ready, though.

When Meyer arrived at OSU, Guiton was near the bottom of a list of players Meyer said he was excited to coach. Meyer said since then, Guiton has grown tremendously, making a “180� in his life on-and-off the field.

Guiton now embraces his role as the team’s safety net. “One thing we always say is ‘next man up.’ When one man falls, we have to have faith in the

next guy that he can do it,� Guiton said. “I’m not going to say I’ve always been up about (being a backup), but I try not to get down about it.�

It’s been about six years since Guiton was in a similar situation to the one he was in Saturday.

Guiton’s first start of his high school career at Eisenhower High School in Houston, came when he was a sophomore, playing against Aldine Nimitz High School, also of Houston. “My first game starting was the same exact way. Tie game, fourth quarter, and I actually threw an interception and they ran it back (for a touchdown). We came down, two minutes to go, tied it up, went to overtime and ran it in. After that, defense stopped them and we won,� Guiton said.

Saturday, Guiton showed everyone in Ohio Stadium the type of player he is, and was, while he was a three-year starter in high school.

The fourth-quarter comeback was the “shining moment� of Guiton’s career thus far at OSU. The next best moment? Playing in OSU’s spring games, Guiton said.

The fact that education was positively related to having the higher debt burden just sort of raises some questions about how do we solve this.

Sherman Hanna Ohio State consumer sciences professor

sense it means that financial education to help people, it doesn’t necessarily have to focus on sort of the details of household finances but more on like, ‘Okay, maybe you should be pessimistic in your assumptions and making financial decisions on how much to borrow.’ “(Being pessimistic about the future) is very hard for a lot of students to accept,� Hanna said. “That’s a very hard idea for a lot of people to accept.�

However, some students thought that being pessimistic about financial planning was logical. “If you’re more aware of your surroundings and you plan ahead, that means you’re probably gonna be well off,� Akhmametyeva said.

Other students agreed that being realistic was the right mindset to have when thinking financially. “I think that makes sense because they’re planning for outcomes that may not happen and they’re being cautious and taking all of the aspects into (account) instead of just assuming that things will work out somehow,� Leddy said.

Hanna said she thinks that planning realistically has gotten easier because of the recession. “I think it’s easier now because of the terrible economic times we’ve had in the last four years ‌ It’s a lesson that has to be learned every five or 10 or 15 years, I guess,â€? Hanna said. “In terms of like, OK, you can hope that things will go great in your career or business but you shouldn’t necessarily spend like they’re gonna be good forever.â€?

No one knows if Guiton will get a chance to play meaningful minutes again as a Buckeye. Saturday’s performance against the Boilermakers could be the lone “shining moment� Guiton has at OSU. Miller was released from the Wexner Medical Center Saturday evening after passing all tests and scans. If everything goes according to plan, Miller will be back in action in OSU’s next game, against Penn State.

If it doesn’t, though, Guiton said he is looking forward to playing, and silencing the crowd, at Beaver Stadium in University Park, Pa., this Saturday.

OSU and Penn State are scheduled to kick off at 5:30 p.m.

Gee from 1A book does focus on the tragedy and triumph of our time together and the struggles we faced in the intense crucible of public life. Through it all we have managed to maintain our friendship and respect for each other.”

Constance Gee still considers Gordon Gee as one of the best university presidents in the country.

“He is known for his prowess as a fundraiser, and that has become the main focus of university presidents, like it or not,” Constance Gee said. “His manner, his style of running a university is very similar to that of running a corporation. I know that, that rankles a lot of people in higher education and the faculty, and I have to say that it was disappointing to me as a young faculty member — well they call it the corporitization of the American university. What it is really like at the top of the university structure — it is about fundraising.”

While at Vanderbilt, Constance Gee worked as an associate professor of public policy and education. At Brown she taught public policy, and while at OSU she worked as the director of the Arts Policy and Administration Program as well as an assistant professor of art education.

Constance Gee admits to smoking marijuana in Braeburn, the chancellor’s mansion, but for medicinal purposes. She suffers from Meniere’s disease, an inner ear ailment with symptoms from vertigo to deafness.

She said smoking marijuana has helped cure her illness.

“I took a couple puffs and the nausea, just oh, melted away,” she said in an interview with News Channel 2 in Nashville.

Six years after its publication, Constance Gee remains resentful of the circumstances under which the article was published. She says the reporters included the story of her marijuana usage to justify the long period of reporting and to sell papers.

“There was nothing to dig up,” Constance Gee said.

“They were trying to see if there was any impropriety in terms of spending and there was none. We were always super, super careful about that and Gordon is very honest. What they had found was that yes he spent $700,000 per year on entertainment and running his office, but we raised $1.25 billion over those five years.

When you add those numbers up that’s a pretty good return on investment.”

Lublin, Co-author of The Journal article, said in an email, “I believe our WSJ story stands on its merits.”

“We don’t publicly discuss our news gathering.” said Ashley Huston, vice president of communications at The Wall Street Journal.

Once the article went public, Constance Gee said

Digital from 1A Hofherr said costs about $5,000 per classroom to change from analog to digital wiring.

“We have wiring that goes from our podiums to our projectors and then wiring from the classrooms that go to, you know, a closet in the building that controls the Internet,” Hofherr said.

Hofherr said the nearly $1.8 million it will take to upgrade the classrooms over the next two years will come partly from the refurbished funds but also from a one-time budget request.

Some OSU Students said going digital is an asset but one that could come with complications.

Alexandra Wallace, a fourth-year in strategic communications, said going digital would yield an “opportunity to improve” education.

“Technology has made our lives so much more advanced,” Wallace said. “It can also make us more disconnected.”

Matt Murtha, a second-year in exploration, said implementing more technology into classrooms could “speed up the learning process.”

“I think it would be beneficial,” he said.

The OSU Athletics Department and the College of Medicine also have implemented technology into their budgets.

All of the athletes at OSU will soon be in possession of an iPad, made possible by a decision made last year to re-allocate funding.

David Graham, the assistant provost and associate athletics director for student-athlete success at OSU, said the athletic department re-allocated funds in ts regular operational budget to make a technology fund to help sustain the digital initiative. The cost for every athlete to receive an iPad is about $500,000, Graham said.

But in May, the Graham told The Lantern the department had budgeted $400,000 for iPads.

The program netted $450,000 during a live and silent auction on Sept. 27 at the Schottenstein Center. The highest bid was $185,000 for a 24-perdon dinner party on the 50-yard line in Ohio

she was told to keep quiet by the Vanderbilt lawyers.

Hoping to keep her marriage with Gordon intact, she obliged.

“So I did that thinking I’d be protected in some way,” Constance Gee said. “I was not expecting to be thrown under the bus. Let’s put it that way, quite bluntly. And I was kind of, thrown under the bus.”

By publishing “Higher Education,” Constance Gee has re-opened the conversation, this time with her voice included.

“I felt like I need to clear the air on that and tell my side of the story,” she said.

Constance Gee resigned from Vanderbilt in 2010 and has become an advocate for medicinal marijuana.

She has testified to Tennessee state legislature advocating for the rescheduling of cannabis.

“I want to add to the conversation. I think it’s extremely important that we revisit this issue and reschedule cannabis from a Schedule I drug, which is absurd, to hopefully Schedule III, so that we can do some legitimate research on what cannabis can do for a variety of illnesses,” Constance Gee said.

In addition to publishing “Higher Education,” Constance Gee is trying to improve as a spokeswoman for medical marijuana.

“There’s a lot to know. I went out to the NORML conference, the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, and spoke out there,” she said. “But I learned a lot more than I’m sure I’d like. I learned a great deal.”

Gordon Gee has seen familiar scrutiny recently after Dayton Daily News called his spending as OSU president “lavish” in an investigative article.

Gordon Gee defended the spending in a Sept. 10 interview with The Lantern.

“I’ve raised a billion and a half dollars and the university’s in the best financial shape of any institution in the country. And you know I’m the highest paid public university president in the country,” he said. “I feel it’s a privilege to be the president here, but I want to earn that salary every day.”

Constance Gee said she does not think these stories have substantial repercussions on Gordon Gee’s standing at the university.

“I would think that as long as your Board of Trustees doesn’t have a problem with it, and he continues to do the great job that he does for Ohio State and raise the enormous amount of money that he does for Ohio State, that it’s probably not a huge deal,” Constance Gee said.

Constance Gee said she joked with Gordon Gee about the Dayton Daily News story.

“Hey Gordon, thanks for staying in the news it will be good for book sales,” she said. “He said ‘I’ll do anything to help you out.’ He was laughing.”

Stadium with OSU associate vice president and athletic director Gene Smith, football coach Urban Meyer and men’s basketball coach Thad Matta.

Graham said the purpose behind the iPads for student-athletes is to “enhance time management and academic skills.”

Although the football team was among the first to receive them, by this time next year, all of the student-athletes will have iPads that will be distributed on a rolling basis.

In September OSU held an auction at the Schottenstein Center that raised $450,000 for the Digital First program. Items auctioned off included a 24-person dinner party at the 50-yard line in Ohio Stadium with OSU athletic director Gene Smith, football coach Urban Meyer and men’s basketball coach Thad Matta and an opportunity to travel with the men’s basketball team to its away game versus Duke.

The College of Medicine has been providing its students with technology to aid in classroom and clinical learning for about 10 years, said Daniel Clinchot, the College of Medicine’s vice dean for education.

The evolution started with the iPod Touch, and later as more students became interested in the iPhone, they were given a choice between the two devices.

Unlike other departments, the College of Medicine requires its students to pay a $75 technology fee at the beginning of the year and another $150 fee at the end of the year for upgrades. It is this technology fee that makes it possible to give every student an iPhone or iPod, Clinchot said.

If students choose to get the iPhone, their fee is reimbursed to be used for the cost of the phone and toward the cell phone plan, which has to come out of the student’s pocket. Otherwise, the school would provide the iPod Touch, if they chose that option, without a fee reimbursement.

By requiring their students to have technology such as the iPhone on hand, it allows them

to provide information “at the patient’s bedside,” Clinchot said.

The College of Medicine also requires its students to have a laptop that can run an IOS operating system. All of their exams and much of their educational material is made available through this operating system.

“We spent a fair amount of time developing applications,” Clinchot said.

These applications include one called “Direct Observation,” which allows students to input patients’ diagnosis. This does not include information protected under the privacy of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, Clinchot said, just the different illnesses and diagnosis the students have been able to observe.

This year, the College of Medicine ran a pilot test to see if iPads would be a better option for its students. This fall, students were chosen at random to test whether the iPad is more or less beneficial for their education and clinical environment.

Clinchot said they will know by spring if the iPad will take over for the iPod/iPhone option.

If they choose the iPad, it will alleviate the necessity to have a laptop. The school will provide the iPad, made possible with the technology fee, or a student can get another type of device and have their fee reimbursed, Clinchot said.

Although it seems that many students are receiving new technology devices through the Digital First platform, don’t expect the general undergraduate classes at OSU to be a part of the distribution.

“We explored that for a little while, you know, what would it cost to give every student at Ohio State an iPad and it’s really expensive,” Hofherr said. “So I think it’s out of the realm of feasibility.”

But Hofherr said soon, most students will already have the technology they’re providing.

“We’ve seen this massive growth of mobile devices … there’s gonna be a point where this is just what students have,” Hofherr said.

- Buckeyes, not Meyer, undefeated - Chris Fields’ moment to remember

Ohio State — 29 Purdue — 22

Meyer’s loss is OSU’s gain; Bucks go to 8-0 PAT BrennAn Sports editor brennan.164@osu.edu

OSU football coach Urban Meyer (left) celebrates the Buckeyes’ 29-22 overtime win against Purdue Oct. 20 with sophomore linebacker ryan Shazier (right) at Ohio Stadium.

Unlike his Ohio State football team, Urban Meyer has been defeated during the current season.

The Buckeyes fought back in the closing seconds of regulation Saturday to force overtime against Purdue at Ohio Stadium. OSU prevailed, 29-22, and along the way, Meyer lost a battle to an assistant coach at a critical moment in the game.

With time running out, OSU’s first-year coach watched his backup quarterback, redshirt junior Kenny Guiton, ably steer the Buckeyes toward a touchdown and a chance to tie the contest with a two-point conversion with three seconds to play in regulation.

Guiton came on after sophomore Braxton Miller left the game due to injury and was taken to the Wexner Medical Center. Miller was eventually released after passing all medical tests.

OSU needed to convert its two-point conversion to send the game to overtime and a debate ensued between Meyer, OSU players and offensive coordinator Tom Herman on the sideline.

Guiton completed a 2-yard pass to junior receiver Chris Fields to cut OSU’s

deficit to 22-20 — the first step in drawing level with the Boilermakers.

The second part of the process was converting a two-point conversion and it was there that Meyer, the players and Herman disagreed.

With the game and a chance at an undefeated season at stake, Meyer wanted to run the ball.

“The offensive line was screaming at me to run the ball. I mean, like screaming. And same with (sophomore running back) Carlos Hyde,” Meyer said. “And I almost changed that play. And I said, ‘Tom, let’s pound it at ‘em.’ He said, ‘No, let’s go with this.’”

Herman’s preference was to pass with the game on the line. The decision worked.

Meyer had been overruled and lost the debate, but it was for the better.

It was a slow-developing play, but OSU sophomore tight end Jeff Heuerman finally released into the end zone. Guiton lofted the ball and Heuerman snatched it up to tie the Boilermakers at 22.

The rest of the game is the stuff of OSU folklore — the Buckeyes took the ball first in overtime, Hyde scored his second touchdown of the game to make the score 29-22, and the OSU defense forced a turnover on downs to win.

The improbable come-from-behind victory

Fields finds ‘moment’ when OSU needs him late in 4th quarter PATrICK MAKS Asst. sports editor maks.1@osu.edu Chris Fields hadn’t caught a ball all year long.

Not a single one.

In an Ohio State offense averaging 39 points a game, the redshirt junior wide receiver found himself reception-less and yard-less two-thirds into the Buckeyes’ 2012 campaign.

Cast in the shadow of younger receivers like sophomore Devin Smith and junior Corey “Philly” Brown, Fields, for all intents and purposes, had been a non-factor for an undefeated OSU team.

Until Saturday’s 29-22 overtime win against Purdue, at least.

And after making the biggest catch of his OSU football career, Fields said he’s used to throwing himself after the ball.

“I don’t know if anybody knows but 13 years of baseball paid off for that one. I used to be a center fielder,” Fields said with a wide smile. “I used to dive all over the place, so I’m used to it.”

Down 22-14 with 47 seconds to play, though, that opportunity appeared to be doubtful while the first loss of the Urban Meyer era in Columbus seemed like a sure thing.

After all, a typically explosive Buckeyes offense had managed to scrap together just two touchdowns points over the course of 59 minutes and 13 seconds.

Without sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller, who was carted off the field and taken to the Wexner Medical Center at the end of the third quarter, it appeared it would take a small miracle for OSU to eke out a victory against Purdue on the cloudy afternoon at Ohio Stadium.

In the Heisman candidate’s place was the man Fields calls his best friend, redshirt junior quarterback Kenny Guiton, who had already thrown an errant interception earlier in the fourth quarter.

Sportswriters were writing obituaries for the Buckeyes’ would-have-been perfect season. Hordes of frustrated, exasperated fans headed toward the exits after watching more than 59 minutes of incompetency from the home team.

For as shaky as OSU’s offense appeared, though, Fields’ play seemed to be just the opposite.

Coming into the contest against the Boilermakers, he had just 11 career-receptions to hang his hat on.

Including Saturday’s tilt, the Painesville, Ohio, native had only seen action in five games for the Buckeyes this season.

With eight seconds to play, Fields’ moment, as he called it, came.

Guiton had improbably driven a once-lifeless OSU offense down to the 2-yard line. “Kenny!

Kenny!” chants reverberated off the cement stands of the 90-year-old Horseshoe.

OSU junior receiver Chris Fields celebrates a touchdown with 3 seconds remaining in regulation during an Oct. 20 game against Purdue. OSU won in overtime, 29-22.

thelantern’s Heisman Hopefuls editors’ ranking of top Heisman Trophy candidates

1. COllIn KleIn, QB Kansas State senior quarterback Collin Klein went into Morgantown, W. Va., and ripped the title of Heisman Trophy frontrunner from West Virginia senior quarterback Geno Smith.

Klein totalled seven touchdowns in the game, running for four and throwing for three more in a 55-14 win against the Mountaineers Saturday.

He also threw for a career-high 323 yards on 19-of-21 passing. For the season, Klein has 10 touchdowns through the air, 14 on the ground, 1,397 passing yards and just two interceptions.

2. GenO SMITH, QB

3. BrAXTOn MIller, QB

The aforementioned Smith perhaps entered Saturday’s game against Kansas State as the leading candidate for the Heisman, but his team suffered its second loss in as many weeks when the Wildcats stormed into Morgantown and took the contest, 55-14. Smith threw his first two interceptions of the season in the game.

Hope remains for Smith — his touchdown pass to interception ratio is 26-2 and he’s thrown for 2,414 yards in seven games this season.

Ohio State sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller is still in the Heisman discussion but fell off the pace during the Buckeyes’ 29-22 win against Purdue on Saturday.

Miller left the game due to injury, and only threw for 113 yards on 9-of20 passing before he left. He did, however, net 47 yards on the ground, as well as a touchdown to bring his season total of rushing scores to 10.

Miller has 959 total rushing yards in 2012 and has thrown for 1,384 to go along with 11 passing scores. Even though Miller didn’t finish OSU’s win, he made smart decisions when he dropped back to pass.

4. A.J. McCArrOn, QB Alabama football coach Nick Saban doesn’t ask junior quarterback A.J. McCarron to do everything — he’s only attempted 154 passes this season — but, surely, a quarterback that has helped the Crimson Tide stay at the top of the Associated Press’ Top 25 poll for a school-record eight consecutive weeks deserves some credit. McCarron has 16 touchdown passes and 1,476 yards through the air. This past weekend, McCarron posted a 306-yard, four touchdown performance in a win at Tennessee.

McCarron has also avoided throwing a single interception during the 2012 season.

sports Meyer from 5A might not have been possible without Hermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insistence to throw for the two-point conversion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last few weeks weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been practicing that, and when the game is on the line is not a time to go against what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve practiced,â&#x20AC;?

Herman said after the game.

Herman had to endure a few long, nervous moments before he knew the play would succeed. Heuerman ran a tight-end delay, and was tied up in the trenches near the line of scrimmage when the play was originally snapped. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begin to track into the end zone until the play was about four seconds old.

Once the ball was thrown, it was Heuermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s turn to wait. He was confident, though, saying the play works almost every time in practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like coach (Mike) Vrabel was telling me after the game â&#x20AC;&#x201D; those are the hardest ones to catch,â&#x20AC;? Heuerman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ball was in the air for a while. That was just a play weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve repped over and over in Thursday practices for our two-point play.

Came down to it and the whole offense executed and it worked out.â&#x20AC;?

Vrabel would know â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he caught 10 touchdown passes despite being used primarily as a linebacker during his 14-year NFL career.

Ultimately, Meyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defeat appeared to be for the greater good. He was gracious in defeat, too. Victory might very well make a small defeat easier to handle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, (Herman) won that battle,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and great call. Great execution.â&#x20AC;?

The Buckeyes (8-0, 4-0 Big Ten) are scheduled to continue Big Ten play Saturday in State College, Pa., against Penn State. Kickoff is set for 5:30 p.m.

OSU football coach Urban Meyer runs onto the field during an Oct. 20 game against Purdue. OSU won, 29-22.

Fields from 5A The backup signal-caller rolled to his left and saw an open Fields matching his every step along the edge of the goal line â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just the way it was drawn up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had the like an arrow route, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kinda like a flat route and Kenny noticed man coverage,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Eight seconds had become four as Guiton zipped the ball to Fields. Its trajectory, while likely not intended, hurled it toward the red turf of the end zone.

In a diving effort, though, Fields pulled the pass into his gut and hugged the ball to the ground.

While the catch was immediately reviewed, Fields said there was never a doubt in his mind that he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t made the grab. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, I knew I caught it. I had it. No question,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Guiton, who Fields called his â&#x20AC;&#x153;brother from another mother,â&#x20AC;? said he felt the same. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After that catch, I probably told him â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;thank youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; a million times. On the pass, I was just hoping he could get it, and when I saw his hands under it, I knew he caught it,â&#x20AC;? Guiton said.

Having not pulled in a reception all season, what could be a historic grab was Fieldsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; third and final catch as the junior managed to pull in two earlier receptions to help push the Buckeyes into the red zone early in the third quarter.

Arguably, it was Fieldsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; best day since arriving on campus in 2009. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chris Fields is a product of, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to say, our program,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said during the Buckeyesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; postgame press conference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That means three weeks ago, he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been on the field.â&#x20AC;?

Not anymore, though.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;He just changed his whole dynamics, the way he works, his practice habits and his performance,â&#x20AC;? Meyer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can go out there and work all you want and not make plays. But heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s earned that right to be on the field. He was even playing before that, before Philly (Brown) went down, he was on the field, where three, four weeks ago he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on the field. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just that whole systematic approach that we have ... very proud of him.â&#x20AC;?

The spring rumors that flooded message boards that Fields was leaving the team, now, seemed to be a foreign, distant memory. Even it just was for one day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first couple games (leaving) did go through my mind,â&#x20AC;? Fields said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not so much of leaving, just so much of like my future, like after football. You know, I would never leave this university. I mean, this university, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so great. And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be dumb to leave this wonderful university. So, I mean, I just was thinking about some plans after football and stuff.â&#x20AC;?

For now, though, Fields might need to think more about the immediate future with a 5:30 p.m. contest at Penn State looming Saturday.

The catch, perhaps, could be the first of more to come from the receiver. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just means that you should start putting a package in for me and Kenny,â&#x20AC;? Fields said teasingly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just know that I just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, you know, fall down. I gotta keep on going up.â&#x20AC;?

studentvoice Speed, power unexpectedly define 2013 VW Jetta SE CHANNING CHEA For The Lantern chea.14@osu.edu As the 2013 shipments start rolling in, Volkswagen’s lineup hasn’t changed very much, but this hasn’t stopped the car company from making impressionable vehicles. The competition might be struggling to create newer innovative cars, but VW has a different approach.

Call me cynical, but I’ve always considered the Jetta to be the Wonder Bread of the auto industry.

Yeah, it’ll fill you up, but if you could choose between that and something more wholesome, why not go for the wheat, right?

Well, the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta SE left a surprisingly satisfying taste in my mouth after I was given the opportunity to sink my teeth into the treat that was the driver’s seat.

As expected, there was nothing special about the cabin of the car. It was pretty bland, actually. The dashboard and music controls had the same boring look as the previous model, and headroom left much to be desired. It was almost an issue until I remembered that I could jack down the seat and give myself a little more head space.

Redeeming qualities of the interior? The steering wheel for one, with its comfortable grip. The sound system was also very clear. I was pleased enough with the radio’s screen display (available for multiple trim models) that I would give the interior a pass on its lack of showmanship.

Now comes the fun part: performance. The Jetta SE is packing a 5-cylinder engine — a design unique to certain German cars. It might not sound like a whopper, but it sure felt like a V8.

Acceleration and handling for the car were pleasant, and I have the nighttime, traffic-less Hamilton Road to thank for giving me the chance to test the Jetta thoroughly. Honestly, I was surprised that this model was so popular as a family car, considering how much fun it could be to drive recklessly in it — but I digress.

Unlike most family cars, the Jetta’s responsive acceleration, effective anti-lock braking and nimble steering made me nearly take back all I said about the car being boring.

As for highway travel, there’s something calming about going 80 mph without hearing the roar of an engine. Could it be that a police siren is easier to hear? Possibly, but it did make for a comforting ride.

That’s enough of my adventures on Interstate 270. I’m obligated to tell about the stuff parents want to hear too.

The turning radius was impressive. Making a three-point turn on a small two-lane street was ridiculously simple, and doing donuts (which I swear I didn’t try) would have been an interesting experience too. The G-forces usually felt when turning corners quickly weren’t very noticeable. I don’t know what technology these car companies are using to negate gravity, but whatever it is, it’s working.

As for safety, the Jetta is the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s Top Pick. It has a surplus of security systems including the mandated tire pressure monitoring system, anti-lock and hydraulic brake assistance, and V-dub’s Intelligent Crash Response System. This disables the fuel pump, unlocks the doors and turns on the hazard light automatically in the event of a crash.

That being said, I suggest you start with that tidbit of info when you suggest this car to your parents. (They probably won’t know what any of that means either, but it’ll sound legit).

All in all, I was impressed with Volkswagen’s new edition to one of its classic cars. The Jetta’s been around for a while, and it doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere. Since Christmas is coming up soon, you might want to push for a vehicle for making those long winter commutes home.

Your car might not look like a hip piece of Americanized German engineering, but who’s going to judge you for it, the people in your rearview mirror?

Remember Founding Fathers at polls OSU Safety Task Force needs more concrete resolutions LANTERN Columnist

In the words of U.S. Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler, two-time recipient of the Medal of Honor, in his speech to a Boston Veterans of Foreign Wars Convention in August 1939, “There are only two things for which Americans should be permitted to fight, defense of home and the Bill of Rights.”

The Bill of Rights, the first 10 amendments to the Constitution, PATRICK SEAWORTH is a document cited as often as seaworth.1@osu.edu forgotten. I have attempted to use the Founding Father’s words to address the First, Second and Fourth amendments in terms of their current controversy.

Former President George Washington, said in a 1783 meeting of officers in Newburgh, N.Y., that the First Amendment, our right to free speech and a religion of our choosing, is imperative because, “If the freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.”

The distinction of church and state originates from the letters of former President Thomas Jefferson. But Washington also addressed it in his “Farewell Address.”

“Let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion. Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle,” Washington said.

The Second Amendment, our right to bear arms, as described by former President Thomas Jefferson in an 1824 letter to English naval Maj. John Cartwright, as “(Americans’) right and duty to be at all times armed.”

Washington also addressed gun manufacturing. “(Americans’) safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent,” Washington said in his 1790 “First Annual Message to Congress.”

Madison explained in “The Federalist Papers No. 46” that the right to be armed is an advantage Americans have over almost every other nation where the “governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.”

The Fourth Amendment is the right against unreasonable searches

Former President John Adams said citizens are obliged to this right while addressing taxation in his 1779 draft of the Massachusetts Constitution, “(The citizen), is obliged, consequently, to contribute his share to the expense of this protection … But no part of the property of an individual can with justice, be taken from him, or applied to public uses, without his own consent,” Adams said.

We keep the words of our forefathers because they guide us through times we could not have foreseen and remind us of who we are and why we do the things we do. These were their words, and as you listen to the final weeks of the campaign, keep the words of the men who gave us this nation with you.

Remember foremost Madison’s remark within an 1822 letter to W. T. Barry, “A people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.”

Towing companies shouldn’t swindle students Letter to the Editor

Towing cars to maintain integrity of parking spots is legitimate of course, but making everyone pay with cash so the impound company can presumably doctor their books and avoid paying taxes is transparent. Those sleazy companies may not be breaking the law demanding $150 cash payment for towing your car two miles, but they are taking advantage of cash-strapped captive students and their families. In today’s society, we can use a debit or credit card to buy a $1 soda pop, so why can’t we pay an impound company an unexpected $150 charge at midnight? It adds insult to injury. Can’t someone do something about these companies’ unscrupulous policy?

The Ohio State Safety Task Force finally came out with its recommendations, which primarily involve the creation of a “respectful campus culture” that includes all modes of transportation, with future changes yet to come. More concrete plans concern “enhanced signage,” an Oval “dismount zone” and “reducing overall traffic.” While the “Message from Jay Kasey and Javaune Adams-Gaston” could have used less focus group jargon, I do see the need for some of these proposals.

I also noted some glaring omissions. I was not alone. The Lantern published an editorial which complained not only about the late report, but also about the lack of timely, substantial changes which recent campus accidents cry out for. Online Lantern article comments are likewise incredulous that certain factors were ignored. Commentators posit that the new semester system coupled with OSU’s rampant construction projects have increased congestion with predictable results. Other comments call attention to increasing student (mis)use of portable electronic devices, encouraging lack of awareness. The official “Message” ignores these factors.

Earlier, upon the announcement of the task force’s creation, I had written to Dr. Adams-Gaston (Dr. J) with my own ideas. I told her that awareness was paramount, that it can be taught, and suggested that we combine accident safety with assault prevention training, since many of the teaching tools were the same. I mentioned that an OSU professor, Dr. Jack Nasar, had already done a study on the use of cellphones and crime, and he indicated he may be interested in helping out. In fact, I copied him after receiving no immediate response to my emails to Dr. J. Dr. Nasar agreed that citizens exercising “guardianship” over their surroundings was an important component of safety. After about a week had gone by with no word, I sent my third and final email to Dr. J, as well as a printed copy of the email string through campus mail. It’s now been several weeks with no response.

Instead of complaining, here are my recommendations, some of which I am volunteering to help implement immediately: -Teach alertness for both crime and accident prevention. There can be multiple formats, but for maximum effectiveness, they should attract students, not be forced upon them. Emphasize that each one of us is ultimately responsible for our own safety.

-Address the prevalence of portable electronic devices and examine their effects on personal safety, especially as “distraction devices.”

Furthermore, these technologies have introduced new ways to inform and possibly, offer “teaching moments” of their own. This should be explored, preferably with the aid of those younger than me.

-There needs to be greater recognition from top OSU officials that campus lies adjacent to one of Columbus’ highest crime areas. Crime and accident prevention education is a lifelong learning skill set for everyone which extends well beyond the campus years and environs.

A comprehensive, holistic, investment in harnessing student, staff and faculty energies now will result in potential benefits far into the future.

There’s no better time to indulge in scary movies than the weeks approaching Halloween. However, there comes a time when all fright-flick fans have made their way through most of the well-known genre favorites. Let’s face it: “Halloween,” “Psycho” and “The Exorcist” are classics, the best of the best.

But they’re also the movies anyone getting into horror films watch first. So, what happens when you’ve made your way through the greatest hits from John Carpenter, George Romero, Wes Craven and Tobe Hooper?

Head to the horror graveyard and dig up some ZACH LOW flicks that aren’t as famous. Here’s a list of 10 low.65@osu.edu movies from throughout horror history to keep you scared all the way up to Oct. 31.

1. Lewis Allen’s “The Uninvited” (1944, and not to be confused with the mediocre 2009 remake) ranks among the spookiest haunted house films of the classic Hollywood era. Starring Ray Milland as a composer who moves into a haunted seaside estate, fans of the “Paranormal Activity” series will appreciate the thrills derived from the things which go unseen.

2. Influencing Romero’s “Night of the Living Dead” and David Lynch’s “Eraserhead,” Herk Harvey’s “Carnival of Souls” (1962) is a black and white nightmare that makes up for its low-budget and thin plot with a creepy, haunted pavilion setting and a truly spooky specter. Concerning a young woman’s descent into madness following a car accident, the film has a delightfully cheap charm, with the director himself playing the ghost.

3. As “Halloween” director Carpenter has said, “Horror is a universal language,” and indeed, many frightening films have come from across the globe. Mario Bava’s “Black Sabbath” (1963) is a fun collection of three short spooky stories — “The Telephone,” about a woman harassed by strange phone calls, is a clear influence on 1974’s “Black Christmas” — and features genre legend Boris Karloff.

4. Juan Piquer Simon’s “Pieces” (1982) is a classic of another kind. Featuring some truly questionable acting and downright ridiculous voice dubbing, the absurd slasher movie offers as many laughs as it does scares.

5. Canadian auteur, meaning the filmmaker has total creative control over his work, David Cronenberg is well known as a director of body-centered horror.

Perhaps no other film exemplifies his icy, disturbing view as well as “Videodrome” (1983). Starring James Woods as a seedy cable programmer who gets in over his head when he tries to find the origins of a show featuring torture and murder, the film is full of nightmarish imagery, and stuns with an epically downbeat ending.

6. Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury’s “Inside” (2007) is possibly the most horrific of the new wave of French horror films. Alone on Christmas Eve, the pregnant Sarah (Alysson Paradis) is stalked by a mysterious stranger (Béatrice Dalle) who says she will leave on one condition: she gets Sarah’s baby. The film unfolds in increasingly shocking acts of violence, and expectant mothers would do well to avoid it.

7. “Let The Right One In” (2008) was one of the more popular foreign horror films in recent memory. The Swedish vampire coming-of-age story is charmingly chilly, boasting stellar performances by its two young leads. The American remake, renamed “Let Me In,” unfortunately failed to retain what made Tomas Alfredson’s original special, and aside from a few well-handled set pieces, was mostly a waste of time.

8. Ti West’s modern masterpiece “The House of the Devil” (2009) thrives on its deliberate pace, creeping along until it reaches its bold, bloody climax. From the moment heroine Samantha (Jocelin Donahue) agrees to a babysitting job the night of a lunar eclipse, we know things will not end well. “The House of the Devil” might test the patience of some viewers early on, but those who persevere are in for one hell of a finale.

9. “The Woman” (2011), the latest from genre master Lucky McKee, turns the idyllic northeast mountains into the scene of unspeakable horror. When a feral woman is captured by an average family man, he decides to “civilize her,” the implications of which become increasingly disturbing as the film builds to a blood-soaked finale.

10. Also in 2011, Ben Wheatley’s “Kill List” has proved to be an unmatched cinematic nightmare. The British film begins as a straight-ahead thriller about a pair of hitmen, but quickly goes off the rails in the best way imaginable. A brutal assault on your senses with a pitch-black comedic streak, the ending of “Kill List” will leave you shaking.

Spoon, Wolf Parade members mix to form Divine Fits, find C-Bus niche JOHN WERNECKE Asst. multimedia editor wernecke.5@osu.edu Divine Fits is not equal to the sum of its parts, and that’s because it isn’t trying to be.

Though the band rejects the title “supergroup,” Divine Fits is just that in the sense that its three members come from already-established bands.

Lead singer Britt Daniel has fronted rock ‘n’ roll group Spoon for 19 years.

Guitarist and vocalist Dan Boeckner played with Canada-based indie rock band Wolf Parade for nine years.

Drummer and Columbus native Sam Brown, who belongs to New Bomb Turks, which decided to “suspend all activity for the time being,” according to its website, said Divine Fits is a project unlike anything the members have previously worked on.

Divine Fits is scheduled to perform at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Newport Music Hall with The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.

“I think being the band that we are, you know, we’re not being Spoon, we’re not Wolf Parade, we’re not any of the bands we’ve been in. Britt’s songs are going to sound like Britt,

Divine Fits is scheduled to perform Oct. 24 at Newport Music Hall.

Dan’s songs as well, but the way we all sound together is completely different,” Brown said. “Eventually people will stop talking about the other bands we were in and see that we’re a new band. We sound like ourselves.”

The band released its debut album “A Thing Called Divine Fits” Aug. 28.

Brown said the group already has another album on its mind, which it hopes to tour in support of in the future.

Divine Fits went on a brief tour through each member’s hometown

in August. Brett Ruland, owner of Spoonful Records, located at 116 E. Long St., was at the band’s Columbus show Aug. 6 at Ace of Cups, located at 2619 N. High St. “I love them,” Ruland said. “Their live performance is even better than the record.”

Ruland also said he is a big fan of Brown.

“Sam Brown is my favorite rock drummer in Columbus, so I’ve pretty much followed every band that he has been involved with.” Ruland said.

Talent buyer at PromoWest Productions, Adam Vanchoff, said Divine Fits should make for a great fit for Columbus concertgoers.

“Spoon and Wolf Parade have done well in the market and with CD101 supporting the Divine Fits records it makes sense to have them play in Columbus,” Vanchoff said.

Brown, who is an Ohio State alumnus, said he is proud of Columbus’ music scene and considers the quality of music to be higher than ever.

“Because of the Internet, kids come to college with a deep understanding of the music that came before them because of everything that’s available to them,” Brown said.

“Instead of getting to college and having your roommate play the Violent Femmes for you, blowing your mind, then proceeding to start a band six months later after you’ve absorbed all this music, people show up to school already knowing who The Stooges are and knowing about all the great underground music.”

Tickets are available for $18 in advance and $20 the day of the show and can be purchased through Ticketmaster or at the Newport, located at 1722 N. High St.

Professor’s ‘Discovering Columbus’ voyages to OSU Swing Space LINDSEY POOLE Lantern reporter poole.130@osu.edu

Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean blue and several cities were eventually named after him. One artist has taken those cities and the idea of time to create “Discovering Columbus,” an exhibit to alter how people view time and to change the ideas of discovery and exploration.

Ohio State associate professor of photography Robert Ladislas Derr began his initial research for the project in 2010 and finalized it in 2012. “Discovering Columbus” is scheduled to be displayed Monday through Nov. 16 at OSU Swing Space, located at 1556 N. High St., in association with the “Across the Sea” exhibit.

Derr’s interest in history, cartography and exploration led him to explore 10 towns named after Columbus, including Columbia, Md., Columbia, S.C., Columbus, Ohio, and Washington D.C. Derr used constellations, which were often used to navigate in the 15th century, to help create the exhibit.

“I utilized the constellations that appeared above each town (at) night,” Derr said. “It was incorporated

to plot my route through the streets and plot a route through each park.”

He visited each town and kicked a ball resembling a globe through the streets and parks of the towns, making a path of a constellation that can be seen in the night sky of that particular city. He used video cameras and different angles to enhance the perspective the viewer will have of him and the routes he takes through the streets and parks.

The entire exhibit features a mixture of media including photographs, video and sound from vocalists. Derr said his favorite part about the exhibit is the way the combination of these elements will come together for the audience.

“The viewer takes on the role of discoverer,” he said. “I am most excited about how one experiences the different media in the entire exhibit.”

Derr enlisted the help of other teachers and professors as well as vocalists in each town he visited to complete the project. He also asked teachers from each location to write an essay that reflected their interest in the exhibit. Those who wrote essays shared overlapping research interests, Derr said.

John Richardson, assistant professor of art education at OSU’s Newark campus, wrote one of the essays to accompany Derr’s exhibit. Richardson

said his essay focused primarily on “how time is implicated by thought and creative process.”

“We can expand, complicate and hopefully come to a more complete understanding of our own experiences generally and moments of exploration and discovery,” Richardson said in an email.

The vocalist for the Columbus portion of the exhibit was Ryunosuke Matsui, a third-year in photography. Matsui had taken two of Derr’s classes and heard he was looking for vocalists to include in a project. Matsui sang “Christopher Columbus,” a 1950s pop song by Guy Mitchell.

“I had to sing this song without any background music, so it was very interesting and a little difficult to perform just by myself,” Matsui said.

Matsui has not seen the entire project yet but plans to.

“It will be cool to see how my part fits in with the rest of the exhibit and all the other elements,” he said.

When people come to the exhibit, Derr hopes that they leave with a new sense and understanding of discovery.

“I would like for people to consider that the spirit of discovery is vital in keeping one engaged with life, and seeing things from a new and different perspective increases understanding,” Derr said.
