Board of Trustees to vote on waiving tuition for study abroad DANIEL BENDTSEN AND LEE MCCLORY Arts editor and Design editor bendtsen.1@osu.edu and mcclory.10@osu.edu Studying abroad as an Ohio State student has been a significant financial undertaking for years. In the past, students studying abroad have been required to pay tuition to both OSU and their respective foreign university. But last April, the Board of Trustees waived that requirement for fiscal year 2015, and is hoping to repeat that action with a waiver for fiscal years 2016 and 2017. However, the process is complicated for the university by stipulations in the Ohio Revised Code, which require the university to get state approval for a waiver every two years to correspond with the state’s biennial budget.
Students enrolled at Ohio colleges are required to pay a uniform instructional fee, regardless of how many credits they take. Prior to the university seeking waivers, students would commonly take leaves of absence to avoid double charges while studying abroad, a habit that became concerning to the trustees. “Dis-enrolling causes the student to be ‘off our radar’ and to be at risk for travel-related situations such as manmade or natural disasters and medical emergencies,” according to a statement accompanying the board agenda. Mallory Conlin, a fourth-year in psychology, had wanted to study abroad in France, but won’t have the chance because she’s graduating in August.

The OSU Board of Trustees could waive requirements for the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years, making studying abroad less expensive.

n an emotional and somber ceremony, 15 Buckeyes who died this year were remembered in the Great Hall Meeting Room of the Ohio Union on Tuesday night. ¶ The theme of this year’s Service of Remembrance was “Once a Buckeye, Always a Buckeye,” which was reiterated throughout the night by the event’s speakers. ¶ “We sit in here to know that death is never the end of our story,” said Steven Bell, a priest at the St. Thomas More Newman Center. “Once a Buckeye, always a Buckeye is a story that goes through.” continued as Buckeye on 3A
Student prepares for Boston Marathon amid guilty verdict Dzhokhar Tsarnaev found guilty of bombing the race 2 years ago MICHAEL COLIN Lantern reporter mikecolin13@gmail.com 26345. While this number most likely doesn’t mean anything to many people, it represents closure for Boston native Taylor Landes. Landes, a fifth-year in international studies, will compete in her first Boston Marathon on April 20 as runner number 26345. She, along with thousands of others, will run the marathon knowing that Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been found guilty of all 30 counts of which he was accused. On April 15, 2013, Tsarnaev and his brother, Tamerlan, set off two bombs at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Three were killed, and more than 260 were injured. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed days after the bombing while attempting to flee from law enforcement officers who were trying to arrest him. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested and taken into custody after hiding from police in the Boston suburb of Watertown, Mass. Courtesy of TNS

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was found guilty of carrying out the April 15, 2013, Boston Marathon bombing, which killed 3 people and wounded more than 260 others.
Ohio State is joining 26 other universities in an effort to assess the services it provides for sexual assault victims. The schools are collaborating with the Association of American Universities, a nonprofit organization that connects 62 “leading public and private research universities” in the U.S. and Canada, according to its website. Together, the universities are conducting a “climate survey on sexual assault and sexual misconduct” this month. The survey was sent out to all OSU undergraduate, graduate and professional students with a note included from President Michael Drake. “The results will be used to guide policies to encourage a healthy, safe and nondiscriminatory environment at Ohio State,” the note said. “Your well-being is our top priority, so participation is important, even if you believe these issues do not directly affect you.” Kellie Brennan, OSU’s Title IX coordinator, said sexual violence on campus is a growing concern, and the survey is a good way to figure out how OSU is doing. “A campus climate survey allows the university to examine the prevalence and incidence of violence on our campus and enhance resources for support, response and prevention,” she said in an email. She added that it’s expected to be the largest campus survey ever, with about 800,000 students participating across the 27 schools.

Apple, Conley lead race at cornerback JAMES GREGA, JR. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu “There is tremendous value in appreciating what you’ve earned.” Those were the words of Ohio State cornerbacks coach and special teams coordinator Kerry Coombs on Tuesday when he addressed the media after spring practice No. 9. Coombs, now entering his fourth season at OSU, said the Buckeyes should be able to reflect on and celebrate the school’s eighth national title from 2015, but they also need to focus on the task at hand. For now, part of that task is replacing Doran Grant at cornerback as spring practice rolls on. But while one corner spot remains open, the other has been locked down by redshirtsophomore Eli Apple, who Coombs said has impressed throughout spring practice. “Eli was coming off of an illness last spring, and we didn’t have any idea of how he was going to play,” Coombs said Tuesday.

campus Dom Tiberi encourages safe driving after daughter’s death ALAINA BARTEL Lantern reporter bartel.21@osu.edu When Dom Tiberi heard a car door slam and his dogs bark at 2:25 a.m., he was thankful his daughter, Maria, was finally home. But when he heard the doorbell ring five times, he knew it wasn’t her. Tiberi, the sports anchor for 10TV-WBNS, spoke to the OSU community Wednesday morning at the Ohio Union about his “hell on earth” — losing his 21-year-old daughter, an OSU student, to a car accident in September 2013. He said he and his family might never understand the events that led up to the accident, but can only assume distracted driving was a factor. “This epidemic that is called distracted driving, it’s just that, an epidemic. It’s anything that takes your hands off the wheel, your eyes off the road, or you mind off your driving,” Tiberi said. Over the past year, Tiberi has spoken at 38 central Ohio high schools to a total of 26,000 kids as part of an awareness program called Maria’s Message, which is meant to help kids understand the dangers of distracted driving. The OSU event was Tiberi’s first time sharing his message in a college setting. Gene Smith, vice president and athletic director at OSU, also shared his thoughts about being distracted behind the wheel at the event. “We’re in one of the healthiest cities in this country because it’s part of our culture and our mission, so we have a lot of bikers and a lot of walkers and a lot of runners, and those people are at risk when we do not drive safely,” Smith said. There was no evidence Maria Tiberi was using her phone and her toxicology reports showed no signs of drug or alcohol use. Tiberi said it’s not only about being distracted while driving, but also being aware while walking or biking to a destination, noting how easily many lives can be adversely affected in 1 second. “Death is ugly. It takes everything you have, and everything you’re going to have. It robs moms, dads, grandmas and grandpas of their dreams for you. I had a dream of seeing her graduate,” Tiberi said. “I had a dream of seeing her get married, and walk down the aisle, and make me a grandpa. And that night at that hospital when I left, I had to leave her there. That was the hardest thing I ever had to do because I couldn’t get her out of this mess, and I couldn’t help her.” Aaron Wang, a second-year in international studies, said his favorite part about Tiberi’s speech was how it was not only about drunk driving or texting and driving, but a multitude of distracting behavior, including applying makeup or even eating. He said it was important for his peers to hear Maria’s Message. “For college kids especially, there is a lot more on their minds than an average person. They’re always worried about grades, tests, what they’re doing over the weekend and all of these different things,” Wang said. Tiberi talked about using defensive driving, which assumes everyone on the road is distracting themselves, in order to protect yourself.

10TV-WBNS sports anchor Dom Tiberi shares Maria’s Message to a crowd of OSU students on April 8 at the Ohio Union. Sarah Flanagan, a fourth-year in chemistry, said Tiberi’s discussion of defensive driving resonated with her. “A lot of us really don’t think about how tomorrow could not come,” she said. “Defensive driving was the key thing my dad taught me when he was teaching me (how to drive).” Tiberi ended his speech by saying that Maria’s Message
was one of love — to love yourself enough to protect yourself by ending distracting behavior while driving, walking and biking. “You guys are smart kids. You’re at Ohio State,” Tiberi said. “The standards here are high. You know what you should and shouldn’t do.”

Potted plants sit on display at a Service of Remembrance honoring OSU students who passed away during the 2014-15 academic year at the Ohio Union on April 7. A rosemary plant was present for all 15 deceased students, a traditional plant symbolizing remembrance.
Buckeye from 1A OSU President Michael Drake gave the ceremony’s opening remarks. “We celebrate arrival in the fall and departure in the spring. Some do not complete that journey, but always remain a part of us,” he said. “They’ve graduated in a different way, in a different time. The memory of those we have lost stays with us forever.” Javaune Adams-Gaston, vice president for Student Life, said the connection between Buckeyes is not severed by death. “We never lose that thread and that connectivity. That love stays with us forever,” she said. “Because we are a family of love, they live in our hearts, our minds and our spirits forever.” The University Interfaith Association helped organize the event and religious verses were shared by fellow students. Nabeel Alauddin, a second-year in management and information systems, recited a verse from the Quran during the ceremony. “I took away a sense of solace and comfort and felt a part of something bigger,” Alauddin said of his involvement in the service. A Judeo-Christian and an Intercessory prayer, which is a prayer on the behalf of others, were also recited at the event. Roughly 70 people were in attendance. Many were friends and family of the deceased, but several students also attended the service.
Students remembered at this year’s ceremony included: Samuel Amell, Stephanie Fibelkorn, Derek Jahn, John Kuhn, Kostadinos Karageorge, Guanliang Lin, Wei-Yu Lin, John Mitchell, Anthony Molnar, Victoria Muchiri, Aaron Pierfelice, Samirah Shahid, James Shaw, Marc Salopek and Allen Tuazon. Before the event, families and students stood, smiled and laughed, but when “Carmen Ohio” was played on cello toward the end of the event, many people began to cry. Some guests held on to their loved ones during the song. “Carmen Ohio” represents a university tradition that ties Buckeyes together, said Karen Kyle, director of the Student Advocacy Center. “It’s one thing we all share. It’s moving forward. It’s a beginning, not an end and we do it at our most meaningful events, not just joyful ones,” she said. The 15 deaths this year were “about the average,” Kyle said, and take into account students from all OSU campuses. “Some years there are less and some are more, but it’s just difficult to accept when it is young life,” she said. Family, friends and student volunteers lit candles next to rosemary plants, a traditional symbol of remembrance, as Edify, the OSU African-American Voices Gospel Choir, sang at the end of the service. The ceremony lasted slightly less than an hour, and when it finished, families and friends moved to a reception. Smiles were put on again and the candles were extinguished. Kyle said the ceremony was organized “to have a moment of reflection to appreciate life (because) there is loss in our community too.” She said Tuesday’s event was OSU’s 10th Service of Remembrance.

campus Assault from 1A The survey asks about various hypothetical situations, including if a student has ever experienced sexual assault, worried for their safety because of someone else’s behavior or been assaulted while they were drunk or otherwise intoxicated. It defines sexual assault and sexual misconduct as “a range of behaviors that are nonconsensual or unwanted.” “They also could include threats of force to get someone to engage in sexual behavior such as nonconsensual or unwanted touching, sexual penetration, oral sex, anal sex or attempts to engage in these behaviors,” the survey says. It also asks whether students know about the resources OSU already offers and if they’ve ever used the services. If a student answers that they’ve seen or been a victim of certain situations, the survey prompts them to answer whether they’ve contacted any of the services or reported the incident before. OSU’s Undergraduate Student Government last month released the results of a survey that also assessed the results of campus climate and knowledge about sexual assault and services on campus. That survey included 634 students, and in its results, USG called for improvements to some campus resources, including a cohesive center where survivors could go for help.
Boston from 1A Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s trial, which officially began on March 4, ended Wednesday as the jury returned 30 verdicts of “guilty.” Seventeen of the 30 convictions are capital charges, which means that he might face the death penalty. The conclusion of the trial comes nearly two years after the 2013 Boston Marathon and the devastating attack that came with it. Landes was only one of the many people watching the 117th Boston Marathon two years ago and recalled the events. She talked about growing up in Boston and attending the marathon every year with her family. It had become a tradition to go to the marathon and Red Sox game every year. However, the 2013 marathon proved to be a life-changing experience. “We had been there (at the finish line) for about 10 or 15 minutes. I was actually looking away from the finish line, and we heard an explosion,” she said. “By the time I registered the cloud of smoke, the second bomb went off.” Landes was not alone in her confusion, as hundreds of other onlookers scrambled to either flee the scene or help the injured.

“I feel like this campus is a little bit safer than most, but anywhere you go, sexual assault will always be an issue.” - Shawn Sutton 2nd-year in industrial systems engineering Sarah Hudacek, the deputy director of academic affairs for USG and a second-year in public affairs, said at the time that USG didn’t want to burn students out with too many surveys, but the results of the survey were important. “We speak for the student body, particularly on issues when the student body can’t speak for themselves and with an issue as sensitive as sexual violence when people might be afraid of stepping up and saying something, I think it’s important that we speak for them and that they have the ability to speak through us,” said Hudacek, who also served as the co-chair of the task force that directed OSU’s survey. Some students said they planned to take the university’s survey. “I feel like this campus is a little bit safer than most, but
In the following months, she suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder brought on by being so close to such a devastating event. But Landes said she hopes that running the marathon this year will bring her the closure she needs. “I wanted to get back on Boylston Street and just be back at the finish line,” she said. Landes also said she kept updated on the Dzhokhar Tsarnaev trial, especially during live testimonies. “That was emotional,” she said of the testimonies. “I thought I had it bad coming out with PTSD … To hear the stories of the other victims just made it an emotional experience.” When she saw Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s conviction today, Landes said she experienced a “rush of relief,” but not happiness. “I’ll never say happiness because it’s never good to see someone get convicted,” she said, but added that she feels no sympathy. The outcome of the trial did not only affect those who were in attendance at the marathon in 2013. Jon Anderegg, a lecturer for the OSU School of Communication, is currently teaching a class about media and terrorism and explained how events like this can be affected by the media. “One of the interesting things
anywhere you go, sexual assault will always be an issue,” said Shawn Sutton, a second-year in industrial systems engineering. Catherine Fabian, a first-year in biology, said she has friends who have experienced sexual assault, but at the time, she didn’t know about any resources OSU offered. “I feel like I’ve known about these (sexual assault resources) since the summer. They make it more obvious now,” Fabian said. She added that she took the survey and thinks it will help raise awareness about the issues. Brennan said OSU strives to be a leader with its resources. “Sexual violence negatively impacts a survivor’s physical and emotional health, educational success, and many other aspects of daily life,” she said. “Ohio State is committed to ensuring a safe campus climate for all of our students and the entire university community.” The survey runs through April 27 and all responses are kept confidential. Brennan said some questions might be difficult for survivors of sexual violence but that participants could choose to skip any questions that make them uncomfortable.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev (left) and brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev seen on a surveillance tape taken on April 15, 2013 — the day of the Boston Marathon bombings. about this is that there’s been several hundred terrorist plots we’ve seen since 9/11, none of which have really been successful,” he said. “This was the first one that seemed like it had a pretty big effect on our society.” Anderegg said the most important thing people should keep in mind after events like this is that it is a sad series of events for everyone impacted — not just the victims. “The story of his (Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s) life and the tragedy of his
life — it should be remembered that there are multiple stories,” he said. “At some level, we should try to understand all stories and not just reinforce our own understanding of events.” Landes, who has only been training for the marathon for a few months, said she is determined to finish the race. “I just know for the experience that I just want to finish and enjoy the day,” she said. “If I end up crawling across (the finish line), I don’t really care.”
“The cost held me back. It would save a lot of money if I didn’t have to pay the OSU tuition requirement,” she said. Kacie Ziemann, a firstyear in public affairs, said the changes could increase her chances of leaving the country. “It’s an expensive semester. Definitely knowing that information helps me,” she said. Ali Ross, a first-year in finance, is studying abroad during May Session and said the biggest roadblock preventing her from taking a longer trip is not the money, but the difficulty of staying on track with her degree. “The tuition requirement is waived for Maymester. I didn’t want to do two months so 10 days was good. Maybe I’ll do longer eventually,” she said. “I’m iffy about it because it’s hard to get the same core requirements at other universities that are required for my major.” The Board of Trustees is set to vote on the issue on Friday.

opinion Women’s safety at OSU sometimes feels like a joke Advisers can help DANIKA STAHL Lantern reporter stahl.145@osu.edu It was this time last year, when the crocus began to bloom and the snowdrops peeked their heads out of partially frozen soil, that I found a slip of paper under the windshield wiper of my rusty 1993 Buick station wagon in the back of Carmack parking lot. I suspected it was a parking ticket. I launched into detective mode, grabbing the suspect paper from the window. Instead of a ticket, I found a sheet torn from a notebook with a handwritten note. It was from a man who said he’d been watching and saw me every morning, had a phone number and in sloppy cursive at the bottom was signed “Jake.” I put the note in my cup holder and headed home, where I talked to my mom and sister about the mysterious Jake. They were concerned. And as the initial flattery wore off, I began to share their sentiments. I strained my brain to figure out if there was anyone I saw regularly in the parking lot and recalled no one. Someone had been
watching me for months, knew when I got to campus and what car I drove, and I had no idea who they were. But they certainly knew me. Even if Jake was a perfectly respectable, nice (albeit shy) guy, he had never bothered to say hello, and I was startled. So I started driving a different car and switched my parking lot soon thereafter. It might seem like an overreaction at first to change my routine and even my car, but I swear to you the fear associated with this experience is something women all over campus feel every day. With the shedding of winter layers, I would like to issue a reminder I feel, sadly, is needed: respect your fellow students. I have felt disrespected here. I have felt horror and I have felt disgust. Sometimes it is a whistle or catcall when crossing High Street. Sometimes it is the man who tries to spark conversation and follows you for a half a mile between your classes. Sometimes it is the man who stops you, stares at your cleavage and declares that you look “very exotic.” Sometimes it’s the man you met in front of Hagerty Hall who you hang out with once, only to have him jack off next to you at the
movie theater. And sometimes it is the teaching associate who kept touching you in class and justifies it by saying you were his “crush” all semester. The biggest issue with all of it is that nobody around ever stopped to help. If they noticed and kept moving, it is a problem. If they did not notice, it is an even bigger problem. I did not know where to go, who to turn to for help, and frankly it sucked. Ohio State — God knows I love it — has some really screwed up issues when it comes to women. I came to OSU a naive girl, taking classes that ended after dark and was approached on the bus ride and walk to the parking lot my first night here. Now I understand why my coworkers laughed when they pulled out their matching pink pepper spray. I get it and I carry some, too. And there lies the irony — we laugh because our safety at times feels like one gigantic joke. I do not feel safe here after dark, and I do not feel all that much safer in the light. I do not have any perfect solutions. But I wish, I really, really wish somebody had warned me what it would actually be like to be a female student at the Ohio State University.
‘Rolling Stone’ feature must be a lesson in journalism REGINA FOX Lantern reporter fox.1001@osu.edu “A Rape on Campus,” a Rolling Stone magazine feature, turned out to be one of its most disputed, which led the magazine to retract the story this week. The article, published in November, was about a University of Virginia student’s account of an alleged gang rape at a fraternity house. Questions emerged after it was published about the details and factual accuracy of the story. Rolling Stone asked the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism to investigate what had potentially gone wrong in its reporting process. The resulting report was released Sunday, titled, “Rolling Stone and UVA: The Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism Report.” The report revealed, among other things, that the victim feared she would be
found by the man she claimed orchestrated her gang rape. As a result, the editors ran the article without verifying his existence. With sensitive subjects, rape in this case, it is important for journalists to approach the situation sensitively. But being considerate of a victim’s circumstances should not get in the way of the journalistic process. The fact-checkers might have spent countless hours reviewing the victim’s account with all its gruesome details, but to blame a person without knowing his name is a crime in itself. Also, The Guardian pointed out that, in this 9,000-word piece, the writer never actually spoke with the friends of the victim who were indirectly quoted in the article. I remember reading this article when it was published and it never even occurred to me that someone could have fabricated this horrendous account, especially during a time when sexual assaults are so prominent in college culture. Jackie, the pseudonym the victim was called in the article,
put into question the integrity of a major magazine that has been read and trusted for nearly half a century, a university that has been respected for nearly two centuries, a national fraternity that has existed since 1852 and every rape victim ever. Part of me wants to blame the young woman who created this nationwide scandal, but I think Rolling Stone should take most of the heat for this one, which I believe it has with its public apologies, acknowledgements of its errors and proactive behavior in asking the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism to investigate. It is our job as journalists to convey the facts because that is what our readers need and expect. Let this failure in basic journalism, which is how this incident has been described, be a lesson to journalists on the repercussions of making judgment calls. Let this be a lesson on the risk of publishing blind accusations.
students in ways beyond scheduling Letter to the editor:
Have you talked to your adviser today? If you’re like most students, you see an adviser when you start to think about scheduling for next term. Some students may see advisers for questions about dropping a class, adding a minor or changing a major. But an adviser can do much more for you. Advisers are able to help you find resources on campus to support personal and academic success. As part of supporting your success, they also provide you referrals to other university offices and advocate for you if you need it. They are also a great resource for explaining university rules and procedures, and letting you know which ones apply to you in certain situations, as well as which exceptions may be of benefit to you. On an interpersonal level, they can help you strategize about how to overcome obstacles to your academic success or personal wellness during individual appointments or outreach programs. In addition, advisers assist you with long-term degree planning. In general, we can serve as a guide for your exploration of major and career options in your chosen or closely related fields. As part of this process, your adviser might challenge you to explore your interests more deeply or to try new things. Exploration usually includes discussing degree enrichment programs such as community service, observation hours, study abroad, research, internships, living-learning programs, scholars and honors. Exploration might involve linking you with relevant student organizations; it can also include providing you information about scholarships, grants or other school funding opportunities. Keep in mind: your academic adviser is here to help you, and advisers want to see you. Contact them early and regularly. For help with how to prepare for an advising appointment or to answer other questions you may have about advisors, please see: advising.osu.edu/welcome.shtml. Don’t forget to thank your adviser! This is Ohio State’s “Thank an advisor week,” so take a moment to visit this site and let an adviser know if they have had a positive impact on your time at OSU: http://advising.osu.edu/appreciation.shtml. Your adviser will thank you for taking the time to do it! Shannon Peltier Career & Academic Adviser in the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences Peltier.15@osu.edu

“We weren’t gonna keep him off the field, so we moved him to receiver.” – Wide receivers coach Zach Smith on Dontre Wilson
Thunderstorm puts OSU baseball out of business Matchup with Kent St. not yet rescheduled KALEY RENTZ Lantern reporter rentz.21@osu.edu

Sophomore running back Curtis Samuel (4), junior H-back Dontre Wilson (2) and redshirt-sophomore H-back Jalin Marshall (17) are all working as receivers this spring after playing other positions in high school.
H-backs making an impact across the field for Ohio State TIM MOODY Sports editor moody.178@osu.edu Dontre Wilson arrived at Ohio State as a highly rated running back, but Carlos Hyde stood in the way of his playing time at the position. Wilson finished his freshman year with 31 carries for 250 yards and a touchdown, but perhaps made an even more significant impact by catching 22 passes for 210 yards and two more scores. After proving his worth, Wilson still wasn’t in line to start ahead of then-sophomore Ezekiel Elliott at running back last season, so the coaching staff found a way to get him playing time. “Dontre was in that situation with Carlos Hyde and then Zeke came in,” OSU wide receivers coach Zach Smith said Tuesday. “We weren’t gonna keep him off the field, so we moved him to receiver.” The DeSoto, Texas, native responded by racking up 300 receiving
yards and three touchdowns through the air, and he still managed to tally 18 carries for another 100 yards on the ground. But Wilson’s final contributions of the season came when he broke his foot on a key touchdown catch against Michigan State. That injury still has Wilson sidelined this spring, but Smith said the rising junior has been working on his ball skills even though he can’t run just yet. Even before Wilson’s injury, he was splitting time at H-back with now-redshirt-sophomore Jalin Marshall, who finished second on the team with 38 catches last year. Marshall added 983 all purpose yards in the process, finishing behind only Elliott and Wilson. Like Wilson, Marshall wasn’t a slot receiver in high school. Instead, he made the switch after playing quarterback at Middletown High School. But another spring has brought another slight change for Marshall as well, as Smith said he’s practicing as an outside receiver.

Bolts and bats made an appearance at Bill Davis Stadium as the Ohio State baseball team took on its fourth in-state rival of the season, the Kent State Golden Flashes. However, it was Mother Nature who won the contest after only 4 1/2 innings. The game was delayed at first before being canceled because of an intense amount of lightening that stormed into Columbus on Wednesday night. Before the game was called, Kent State held an 8-4 lead in the first matchup between the in-state rivals since 2009. “This was an intense game before it even started,” coach Greg Beals said. “It’s an in-state rival with a great program and our guys knew it was going to be good game. Both teams came out swinging and attacking the game early.” The Buckeyes and Golden Flashes have not yet decided when or if the game will be rescheduled, but Beals said he was disappointed they didn’t finish. So far this season, the Buckeyes have battled back in the ninth in six games with walk-off hits. “I’m disappointed we didn’t have the chance to come back. Our team has done that before and we were confident that we would come back,” Beals said. “(Kent State) had the momentum early in the game, but I certainly had confidence in our ball club to come back and get back into the game.” The Buckeyes will still be rallying with a five-game winning streak when they return to Bill Davis Stadium for a weekend series against the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. The first game is set to begin at 6:35 p.m. Friday, with the Saturday game set to start at 3:05 p.m. and Sunday’s series finale set for 12:05 p.m.

After lighting up scoreboards, King hopes to fight fires MOLLY TAVOLETTI Lantern reporter tavoletti.1@osu.edu Between his time with Ohio State and the Canadian National team, Jesse King has scored 107 goals. The first three came on Feb. 9, 2012, in the now-senior midfielder’s first game for the Buckeyes, and the most recent five came last weekend in OSU’s inaugural Big Ten home victory over Johns Hopkins. In between, there was one on July 15, which King scored for the 2014 World Champion Canadian National Team. Four seasons, 64 games split between OSU and the national team and 98 other goals have blurred by for the Buckeye captain, who said he intends to continue his already impressive lacrosse story as a professional. Though his time as a Buckeye is quickly drawing to a close, King said his work at OSU remains far from finished. “We’ve accomplished a lot of things, but we haven’t accomplished our goal of winning a championship,” King said. The midfielder focuses on games one at a time, and is currently working toward a Big Ten Championship run with the No. 11 Buckeyes, he said. The conference tournament is set to take place in College Park, Md., from April 30

to May 2, but the passion King intends to use to accomplish that goal originated 15 years ago and nearly 3,000 miles northwest of College Park, where he first picked up a lacrosse stick in Victoria, British Columbia. “I started when I was 7 years old,” King said. “I played box lacrosse pretty much my whole life, along with hockey for basically 10 years. But as you get older, you want to focus more on just one sport, so I dropped hockey, made the commitment to go to a high school about 25 minutes away from my house so that I could be in the lacrosse program.” From day one, King possessed an innate desire to win, he said. But when he realized lacrosse could be his gateway to an affordable education in the United States, his motivation to improve his game grew even stronger. “I didn’t even know going to the States for school was a possibility until grade 11. At the time, not a lot of people in Canada were doing that,” King said. “But I learned if you’re really good, you could to get into a school down there and play lacrosse. If I hadn’t have gotten a good scholarship, I probably wouldn’t have gone to school at all because I couldn’t afford it.” Through several recruiting camps the

sports H-backs from 7A With Wilson out and Marshall working on the outside, sophomore running back Curtis Samuel has transitioned to the receivers’ room for spring, much like Wilson did a year ago. “He had a full year at running back to really work those skills, so we took him this spring and said we’re gonna give him a full spring at wide receiver so we can try to develop that skill set,” Smith said of Samuel. “Hopefully he becomes more multi-talented and we can use him in more ways.” Smith said switching positions is like going to a “different world,” and added that the Buckeyes simply want to get the best players on the field. He noted that OSU has had success moving players to new positions in the past, but said the key is to do it with time to learn. “Guys don’t understand the position coming from a different one,” Smith said. “Jalin Marshall went through it when he came from quarterback to receiver. Dontre went through it, Curtis is going through it. That’s why we’re trying to saturate him now, as opposed to fall camp and saying, ‘Shoot, we need
to get him on the field, let’s put him at receiver a little bit.’” At least for the spring, Samuel is making the switch after finishing third on the team with 383 rushing yards and six touchdowns on the ground last season. He added another 11 receptions and 95 receiving yards in limited playing time behind Elliott in the backfield. Now after nine practices as an H-back, Smith said Samuel won’t necessarily stay in his room but will be contributing in whatever way he can come the regular season. “In an ideal world, he’s gonna play both, the ability to go into the backfield when Zeke’s not in, or play in the slot when Zeke is in,” Smith said. “And so we’re developing that skill set. Does he stay there? I don’t think so, but I guess nobody has a crystal ball, so we’ll see.” Buckeye fans will get their first chance to see Samuel at H-back when OSU plays its annual Spring Game on April 18 at Ohio Stadium. The Buckeyes are scheduled to open their regular season on Sept. 7 against Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va.
King from 7A summer before his senior year, King first committed to play at Bellarmine University in Louisville, Ky., but soon realized his desire and ability to dream bigger. He re-evaluated his decision, and after one invited visit to OSU, he committed to the Buckeyes. “We knew what we were getting with Jesse coming in,” OSU coach Nick Myers said. “He’s been really hungry from the start to improve.” As a freshman and sophomore, King’s individual success on the field blossomed, and as sets of senior leaders moved on from OSU, his role began to evolve. “He understands it’s more than just scoring goals,” Myers said. “He has to lead in the right way and be a positive voice that the guys understand. And even now, he’s continued to grow in that way.” King admitted he remains far from perfect, so in addition to daily three- to four-hour practices, he tries to commit a few extra days of lifting, shooting and stick work. He hopes not only to refine his craft, but also to set an example for his team. “It’s his relentless effort,” junior midfielder Kacy Kapinos said. “He leads by action. He gets in there and takes every drill 100 percent, as hard as he can. And he has a big impact on the younger guys.” That focused, “never settle” approach has paid off — King has last summer’s gold medal to prove
it — but where does his perpetual motivation come from? How does the 22-year-old student-athlete manage success while maintaining balance? “It’s really a lot of different things,” King said. “When you’re with a team every day for four years, there’s a brotherhood that’s created. You really wanna do things for each other on the field, and that drives me. It’s definitely hard being a student athlete, but I wouldn’t have changed it for a second.” Regardless of this season’s outcome, King said he rests assured his time as a Buckeye was well spent, leading him to the next chapter of his life. In January, King was selected in the first round of the 2015 Major League Lacrosse Collegiate Draft by the Rochester Rattlers, paving the way toward his professional career. But he said he still has options, and hopes to one day play for his home town Victoria Shamrocks in the Western Lacrosse Association. “With professional lacrosse, there are a lot of different paths you could take, so getting to play and still have a career is going to be a lot of trying different things out, but I know I want lacrosse to be a part of my life,” King said. “Down the road, I’ve been looking into becoming a firefighter for the city of Victoria. I’d be able to help people in my hometown and keep playing lacrosse for my home team in the summers.”

“I thought he had a very good season and I think he has had a much better offseason and spring than he has ever had.” Apple accumulated 53 total tackles last season and added three interceptions while playing in all 15 games, including 14 starts. He also led the team in pass breakups with 10, edging out Grant, who totaled nine in his senior campaign. But even though Apple has momentum heading into 2015, Coombs said the returning starter is not yet a complete product. “He is not finished, and he knows that. We talk about that all the time,” Coombs said. “(I am) really excited about him.” As for the position mirroring Apple, Coombs seemed to have narrowed the competition down to two players. Redshirt-sophomore Gareon Conley was the first name out of Coombs’ mouth when asked about the other corner spot, and he added that Conley has bulked up this offseason. “Gareon has had a very good spring. He has put on weight, he has put on strength,” Coombs said. “He showed up at 168 pounds, now he’s 190 pounds. He is a very fast player, (and) his skill set continues to improve.” Conley played sparingly last season, totaling 16 tackles to go along with two pass breakups. He earned a
start against Michigan State, but was replaced by Apple after giving up an early touchdown. Coombs also named a player who is getting his first taste of college football spring practice. “(Sophomore) Damon Webb, this is his first spring. It’s a lot, it’s hard. He is playing corner and nickel and he is handling it extremely well,” Coombs said. “He is one of the most competitive players on the team.” And while the two-horse race might come down to Conley and Webb, Coombs added he is hopeful that redshirt-freshman Marshon Lattimore will be available next week for fullspeed drills. Lattimore suffered a season-ending injury toward the beginning of the 2014-15 season. With a number of young players set to make an impact in 2015, Coombs said he still believes his unit will be able to maintain the success of the press-man coverage defense that was implemented last season. “They will be good and ready,” Coombs said. “I love my room right now, I love my unit. They are really working at the craft of studying themselves, grading themselves every day; they show up ready to work.” The Buckeyes are set to play their annual Spring Game at Ohio Stadium on April 18 before starting the 2015 regular season on the road against Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va., on Sept. 7.

sports NCAA must revamp March Madness OPINION
PATRICK KALISTA Lantern reporter kalista.4@osu.edu Now that March Madness has come to an end, I would like to reflect on how maddening the tournament actually was, and why college basketball is turning into an unflattering product. Upsets are a huge part of what makes college basketball worth watching in March. This year, however, they were hard to come by. Besides the two 14-seeds that pulled off upsets in the first round, nothing stood out to me as far as exciting or mind-blowing. The streak of a 12-seed beating a five was broken this year. It’s the first time since 2007 that a 12-seed didn’t advance to the round of 32, and that was disappointing. Kentucky losing might have been shocking to most, but I have come to expect that from a team filled with inexperienced players and a coach, John Calipari, who has come up short of a title in more than one occurrence. Which leads into my next NCAA basketball frustration. The one-and-done rule is hurting the sport more than ever and is something the NCAA really needs to look into for the benefit of the sport. Kentucky has obviously mastered recruiting for this rule and continues to dominate the regular season, but besides Duke’s most recent title run, the teams who are winning it all are the ones who have veterans leading the way. What the NCAA should consider is following in the footsteps of college baseball and allow the athletes to be drafted out of high school and then decide whether they will go pro. If they elect to go to college, they must stick around for three years before entering the draft. This might get messy at times because of players declining to be a part of subpar NBA teams, but many will take the money as an 18-year-old, and college basketball will benefit from it. Even if they make the athletes stick with their original choice to go pro, the ones who do decide to go the college route should not be allowed to leave for the draft until after they have spent at least three years removed from high school, the way college football does now. Fans of college athletics support teams rather than individuals in most cases. What sells tickets is being a part of the history and tradition of the programs. To make the regular season more competitive and more meaningful, the NCAA needs to stop giving automatic bids to the conference tournament champions and teams need to earn the right to play. If a team wanted to, it could forfeit every game in the regular season and rest their players, then when it comes to the conference tournament, they could dominate and win it, clinching a berth in the NCAA tournament. If teams have to compete for a limited number of spots in their individual tournament, the regular-season games would mean even more on a nightly basis. Officiating was also a nonstop topic of conversation throughout the NCAA Tournament, and when that happens,

The Duke Blue Devils celebrate their 68-63 win over Wisconsin in the NCAA National Championship game on April 6 in Indianapolis. it’s usually not good for the game. After each broadcast and even during them, the officials were criticized, and in some cases rightfully so. How the referees don’t get to see the same replays as the viewers do at home still blows my mind. What’s the point of replay if you still can’t get the call right? I know the TV ratings set a record for viewers, but
that’s not too hard when you have each game on multiple channels. When it was just on CBS and not TBS, truTV and so on, the games seemed more intriguing. Overall, the state of college basketball has continued to decrease, and unless someone steps in and cleans it up, it won’t get any better. To allow this sport to continue on this way, to me, is madness.

BuckeyeCon takes format back to its roots REGINA FOX Lantern reporter fox.1001@osu.edu On a campus void of any comic book conventions, best friends Rob Gross and Marc Goldner had a vision. They put their heads together and came up with an answer. The Buckeye Comic Book Club will hold the first BuckeyeCon on campus May 2 in the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum. Appropriately enough, the Billy Ireland Library houses the largest collection of comic strip tear sheets and clippings in the world, according to its website. This free event will include open forums between attendees and panels of students and professors with extensive knowledge in art and English, along with opportunities to speak with and purchase art from local comic book artists. May 2 is also Free Comic Book Day, when comic book retailers offer one issue of select comic books to customers free of charge. In recognition of the day, BuckeyeCon will provide free issues of titles including “Fight Club,” “The Simpsons” and “Pokémon.” “People will be in the comic mode,” said Gross, a fourth-year in film studies and vice president of the Buckeye Comic Book Club or, as the members like to be called, Buckeyes Assemble. Marc Goldner, a fourth-year with a specialized major in entertainment business and president of Buckeyes Assemble, sits next to his “bestie,” Gross, at a round table in Hang Over Easy. The friends admit that they aren’t fans of the stereotypes that go along with comic book fans. “I hate ‘The Big Bang Theory,’” Gross said, of the show that features men who love comic books . Both he and Goldner agree that it inaccurately
represents comic book readers in general. To the naked eye, neither man would appear to be a stereotypical comic book reader: Goldner wore a dark jacket over a T-shirt and brushed back his longer hair between bites of egg sandwich . Gross wore an OSU sweatshirt and jeans. Both appeared to be average young adults — unless you observe long enough to see Gross pull out his Spider-Man wallet to pay for his omelet. Gross and Goldner said a common misconception of comic book conventions is that they only cater to die-hard comic fans who are decked-out in costumes and argue with people about whether Batman or Superman would win in a fight . But what Goldner and Gross want to achieve with BuckeyeCon is a place for creative people to network and discuss pop culture. “I don’t even read comic books all that much,” Gross said . “For me, every day on the toilet,” Goldner interjected. The two have had some help along the way. Jenica Kramer is a fourth-year in psychology and president of a capella group the Sound of Science. While she is not a member of Buckeyes Assemble, her a capella group celebrates what she refers to as “nerd culture.” Kramer is a self-proclaimed excitable and eager person, which drove her to assist in the logistics of BuckeyeCon. “I’ll be overseeing smaller tasks as the event takes place, most likely,” Kramer said. “My involvement is pretty minimal right now — this is Marc’s baby. I’ll take on whatever conflicts and messes pop up as the plans turn into reality.” Both Goldner and Gross are graduating this spring and are excited to leave OSU knowing they translated their love of comic books into an event.
OPINION
Duggar delivers, ‘Lip Sync Battle’ does not SALLEE ANN RUIBAL Asst. arts editor ruibal.1@osu.edu This is part of a weekly series called “Pop Opinions” where The Lantern offers its take on the week’s pop culture news. Manson gets clocked Marilyn Manson got more than eggs and bacon early Sunday morning. At 2 a.m. in a Denny’s in Alberta, Canada, Manson sat down for some late night munchies. He mingled with fans and then, according to police reports, a man flat out socked him. Some reports say that the punch was provoked by a scuffle between Manson and some other diners. Other reports say it was completely unprovoked. But the point is, someone had the balls to punch Marilyn Manson. The guy known as the “Antichrist Superstar.” The guy who cuts himself on stage. The guy who makes his own absinthe called “Mansinthe.” Kudos to the man that punched that guy.
Bouncing baby Duggar Jill Dillard, of the Duggar dynasty, had her first baby Monday night. Israel David Dillard weighed in at 9 pounds, 10 ounces, and has 20 aunts and uncles. Dillard, 23, was married last June and the “19 and Counting” star announced two months later that she and her husband Derick were expecting. The Dillards courted for only a year before getting married, and claimed they didn’t kiss until pronounced man and wife. I understand that the Duggars believe that family and having children is of the utmost importance. Hence why they get married so young and pop out babies like T-shirts out of a gun at a Nickelback concert. But I also think that the time in your early twenties is valuable. It’s still a time of self-discovery and exploration. It’s when you travel to climb Mt. Fuji in Japan or run with the bulls in Spain. It’s when you move across the country and take jobs that are intimidating and exciting. It’s when you, not to sound entirely and disgustingly like a Lifetime movie, discover who you truly are. If you’re in a relationship, it’s when you really grow and understand each other. A baby just makes things complicated. They puke and poop and stuff. But I also hear babies are blessings, so best of luck to the budding family. I hope they also have ample “I” names prepared. Emoji equality Apple’s iOS 8.3 was released Wednesday. This means I will have to delete some of my 2,178 photos to make space on my phone for the update. But it also means new emojis. The much anticipated diverse emojis have arrived. The new emoji keyboard includes emojis in a range of skin tones and an expanded flag set, including 42 flags from around the globe.
This means people can now communicate even better with pictures instead of words. Words are overrated. Another (very important) change is that the high-five emoji — more popularly known as the praying hands emoji — will no longer have rays around the hands. This is to further emphasize the emoji gods’ point that it is not religious. It’s purely two buddies congratulating each other. Personally, I need prayer more than that. Out of sync Jimmy Fallon had the thought, “Hey, I have this really annoying segment on my show where celebrities lip sync to other celebrities’ songs. I should extend that atrocity out into a whole 30-minute show.” That’s exactly how “Lip Sync Battle” was born. It is what it sounds like it is. Two celebrities “battle” each other on who can fake sing along to Top 40 the best. Someone wins and nothing really matters. Congratulations, you didn’t actually sing. I guess it’s not too different than “American Idol” then.

] OPINION
Ryan Cabrera doesn’t commit to a ‘revival’ on latest tour SALLEE ANN RUIBAL Asst. arts editor ruibal.1@osu.edu Ryan Cabrera is a basic. Before his show at Newport Music Hall on Tuesday night, he sat in his bus deciding between Chipotle or Blaze Pizza for dinner. Ryan Cabrera wears fleece-lined Ugg boots when it’s 60 degrees and raining outside. Ryan Cabrera suffers from FOMO, admitting that the hardest part of being on tour is seeing all his friends’ posts online about what they’re doing back in LA. Ryan Cabrera has dated stars of three different reality TV shows. “That just happened to be who I was dating at the time, and they happened to be on shows,” Cabrera said. Once is a fluke. Twice is a coincidence. Three times is just … something. But this isn’t a review of Ryan Cabrera’s life. Background information helps, but this should be about the music. Ryan Cabrera’s last full-length album came out seven years ago in 2008. He released an EP titled “Wake Up Beautiful” last month. He plans to release a full-length album later this year. His show Tuesday night was part of the “Radio Revival Tour” he co-headlines with Secondhand Serenade. Ryan Cabrera is trying to revive the radio and himself with his new album. “I’m a big lyric guy,” he said. “This album, I stuck to not doing pointless lyrics that just sound cool and are the trending thing to talk about — which is a lot of the stuff on the radio now.” Lyrics from one of his latest songs, “House on Fire,” include: “We can burn (burn burn) / Faster than the world can turn / ‘Til we fade away.” Truly groundbreaking. Ryan Cabrera was the last of five bands to go on to a crowd of about one hundred. He opened with “40 Kinds of Sadness,” from his 2004 multi-platinum debut album “Take It All Away.” It’s not the most original song. It doesn’t explain what those 40 flavors of heartbreak taste like. It doesn’t say anything revolutionary about relationships. But it got all one hundred people in attendance singing along. Ryan Cabrera went on to sing some of

Ryan Cabrera on his tour bus before his show April 7 at Newport Music Hall. his new songs, but in between there would be shouts from the crowd for his older hits. “I haven’t had enough to drink yet — but I will,” he told the crowd, sounding almost defeated. Before he played “On the Way Down,” he said, “Let’s kick it back to 2004. I don’t know how old you guys were then.” I was nine, Ryan Cabrera, and watching you on “The Ashlee Simpson Show.” When he played “True,” also from his
THE C-SUITE STARTS WITH CHARACTER. MARQUETTE MBA AND MASTER OF LEADERSHIP STUDIES
2004 debut, he struggled to get his voice to go high enough for the last few lines, causing the song to end in a disconnected mess. Ryan Cabrera is 32. He was 21 when “Take It All Away” came out. Voice changes and personal style changes are to be expected. But I think he has to commit. If he wants to slick his hair back and write about deeper subjects with songs that are in his
range, do it. He could pull a Britney or a Miley and completely rebel from his MTV roots. Shave your head or something, Ryan Cabrera. The alternative is to keep wearing Uggs, keep dating reality stars and keep playing songs from a decade ago that people actually know. I never said there was anything wrong with being basic.
