After President Barack Obama spoke at Michigan’s commencement ceremony in 2010, University President E. Gordon Gee encouraged him to come to Ohio State. “I joked with him. I said, ‘Well, Mr. President, you’re going to lose Ohio,’” Gee said in an interview with The Lantern editorial staff on March 25. “’Because you gave the commencement speech at the University of Michigan and I want you to give it here.’” Apparently Obama kept his promise. Obama is slated to give the commencement speech to more than 12,000 graduates on May 5 at Ohio Stadium for the university’s largest graduation in history. Guests are required to have tickets at this year’s ceremony due to the large number of graduates, renovations to Ohio Stadium and extra security measures for the president. “No one goes to anything, a public setting with the president of the United States, without having to have tickets. It’s just what the Secret Service demands,” Gee said. “And they’re going to make all of our graduates go through the wanding and a variety of other things, so I think there will be a little bit more of a delay, but I think it’s great (that) he would come and be our commencement speaker. So I’m very proud of that.” In the past three years, Obama has been to campus five times, including when he kicked off his re-election campaign at the Schottenstein Center on May 5, 2012, exactly one year before he is scheduled to speak at graduation. “He’s been here a lot. I mean, we had more presidential candidate visits than about 30 states last year,” Gee said. From June to the November election, Obama visted Ohio 29 times, according to The Washington Post. Ohio made up roughly 12.7 percent of

Blood banks seem to constantly ask people to give blood, but not everyone has an equal opportunity to donate. The Food and Drug Administration currently has forbidden the donation of blood from men who have had sexual contact with another man since 1977, a policy which has sparked peaceful protest among members of the Ohio State and Columbus community. The American Red Cross, Outlook Media, an Ohio GLBT media company, and the OSU Multicultural Center partnered together for the “Brothers in Blood” blood drive on Tuesday, an event that protested the FDA’s policy. Curtis Allen, FDA spokesman, said in an email that the policy that prevents men

who have sex with men (MSM) from donating is centered on the potential health risks for others because gay individuals comprise about 50 percent of all HIV infected persons in the U.S., he said. “The FDA’s MSM deferral policy is based upon identifying and minimizing risk to the blood supply,” Allen said. “The FDA’s blood safety efforts focus on minimizing the risk of transmitting infectious diseases, while maintaining an adequate supply of blood for the nation. The agency welcomes scientific and public input and will continue to re-evaluate donor deferral policies as new data become available to ensure the safety of blood and blood products for patients who need these products.” In June 2010, the Health and Human Service’s Advisory Committee on Blood and Tissue Safety and Availability met to discuss the policy, Allen said, but it

Knox trial a warning for students abroad CAROLINE KEYES Lantern reporter keyes.64@osu.edu The recent decision to retry American student Amanda Knox for the 2007 killing of her roommate might serve as a reminder for some college students about the importance of university study abroad and exchange program safety. Italy’s highest court overturned the acquittals of both Knox and Raffaele Sollecito, her then-boyfriend, for the death of British student Meredith Kercher. The ruling that came March 26 gave rise to the re-emergence of media hype surrounding the prolonged international legal battle and to Knox, now a 25-year-old University of Washington student living in Seattle. Maureen E. Miller, director of communications for the OSU Office of International Affairs, said the department website extensively lists international travel safety tips for students. “Know the local laws. Laws and systems of justice are not universal. You are subject to the laws of the host country while abroad,” the department website said. The Court of Cassation, Italy’s final court of appeal, accepted retrial requests from prosecutors and Kercher’s family last week. Unlike the

Amanda Knox becomes emotional at a news conference at Sea-Tac International Airport Oct. 4, 2011, in Seattle. Knox was acquitted of murdering her roommate in Italy. United States, Italy does not have “double jeopardy” laws that protect a defendant from being tried twice for the same crime. Knox’ lawyer Carlo Dalla Vedova told The New York Times his client was sad when she heard of the retrial. “She believed the nightmare was over,” he said. Liz Thomas, a third-year in marketing who studied abroad in Switzerland

last semester, said besides a few robberies in her dormitory, she felt safe while traveling and living internationally. “I think as long as you keep a level head and don’t put yourself in bad situations, it’s easier to avoid trouble,” Thomas said. “I traveled to Rome by myself once, and I did have that idea in the back of my head … but I felt prepared for what was ahead and had

an understanding of the culture and how to interact.” Knox was convicted in 2009 for Kercher’s murder after the 21-year-old was found dead with stab wounds to her throat in the apartment they shared in Perugia, Italy, where both women were participating in yearlong study abroad programs. After serving four years of her 26-year sentence, Knox was acquitted and returned to America in 2011. Madison Herman, a third-year in English, studied in Ireland and said she felt adequately prepared by OSU to live abroad. “We had a lot of teaching prior to going abroad that went over a lot of things like keeping your cell phone in a different pocket, not walking around at night on the phone — different things like that,” Herman said. “We hung out a lot with the locals and different people, but I never felt like I was in danger or unsafe at any point.” Other safety study abroad tips from the university include blending in with surroundings, meeting friends in public places, adopting an attitude of watchfulness and knowing basic help phrases in the local language. According to several press outlets and Knox’s lawyer, she has no plans to return to Italy for the retrial, which has no official start date yet. If convicted a second time, Italy could seek extradition against Knox.

A box at the Ohio Union was used to collect donated formal wear for adult members of the Franklin County Board of Developmental Disabilities recreation program.

Formal wear collection box lacked success in Union sam harrington Lantern reporter harrington.227@osu.edu For most of March the cardboard box in the Ohio Union sat empty. It was supposed to collect donated formal wear to go to Franklin County adults who have disabilities and who are members of Franklin County’s Board of Developmental Disabilities recreation program. By the end of the month the box wasn’t empty, but the effort was far from a success. “All we got was a man’s jacket and shoes,” said Amber Mielke, a third-year in early childhood education at Ohio Dominican University who works as community support committee member for FCBDD’s recreation program. The April 12 Spring Formal is a community event that seeks to give people with disabilities an experience akin to a prom or a wedding reception that they might not otherwise have, said Shawna Spanel, FCBDD recreation program coordinator. Through donation stations at OSU, Ohio Dominican and local high schools, the six-member community support committee sought to get as much of a response as possible before the clothing drive ended Friday. Even without much help from OSU, the

committee was able to garner more than 200 dresses and more men’s wear than the previous year from other donations. “We should be able to outfit everyone. There’s always maybe one person that we just don’t have their size, but we do our very best to make (sure) that clothing isn’t the reason why someone can’t attend,” Spanel said. Spanel said OSU’s poor reaction was probably because “the word didn’t get out.” The collection was advertised primarily by flyers. Dave Isaacs, OSU’s Student Life spokesman, said he is disappointed the formal did not receive more support from OSU and that there will be a conversation with the committee on how more success can be achieved in the future. “We try and work with every group that does a drive, here at the Union, to help them become successful, and we’ll be following up with this group with perhaps some ideas that help bring in more donations,” Isaacs said. “Some (groups) are very successful and some are less so, and the factors on each are widely varying.”

Weather, semesters limit the Oval Beach experience melinda cassidy and shahed al-asadi Lantern reporters cassidy.126@osu.edu and al-asasi.3@osu.edu Prime tanning and free-time Frisbee on Oval Beach has been cut short with Ohio State’s semester switch, affecting one large group on campus perhaps more than any other. First-year students, having never attended OSU under the quarter system, will have only a few weeks of warm weather to spend on the Oval this spring — a stark contrast to the roughly two months granted to upperclassmen in past years — which has some students upset. “Volleyball, laying around, enjoying the good weather — it sounds like an awesome place to hang out,” said Hank Rumpke, a first-year in mechanical engineering. “But I haven’t gotten to experience it at all.” Rumpke said Oval Beach is something he “definitely” wishes he could dedicate some time to, and that members of his fraternity have talked about their experiences with it. Some students said they are unhappy that its popularity could diminish despite having already experienced Oval Beach in previous years. “It’s fun, but there will definitely be less (people on Oval Beach),” said Rob Ellis, a third-year in finance. “I’m mad that it’s going away.” Students studying and laying out on the Oval is something some of OSU’s university ambassadors look forward to when giving their tours. Some ambassadors said they are relieved that the bright orange fences that were on much of the Oval were taken down last week. “It is a big deal. We are just happy they are gone,” said Brandi Harris, a fourth-year in fashion retail studies and a university ambassador. She said the fences made some tour guides self-conscious because the Oval did not look as nice as it could. “The Oval is one of the construction-free places during the tour, so to have orange fencing was pretty disappointing all year,” Harris said. “We just want the university to look great.” Harris said she always has at least two talking points about the Oval when giving her tours and they are Oval Beach and the Involvement Fair. “I have always talked about Oval Beach. We all have our own jokes about it,” she said. Although OSU freshmen have about one month left to spend on and get acquainted with the university’s largest quad before finals end, the weather might not work in their favor. Average temperatures for April in Ohio hit about 65 degrees, according to weather.com

— warm, but not exactly break-out-the-swimsuits weather. On the quarter system, freshmen had an average of 75 degrees to look forward to in May. However, even if weather permits, not all freshmen said they are bothered by the lack of time afforded for Oval Beach this year. Isaac Hammonds, a first-year in criminology, said he is familiar with Oval Beach because his brother is a senior at OSU and isn’t too concerned with only having it around for three or four weeks. “I’ve never experienced it, so I don’t really know what I’m missing. I don’t have anything to compare it to,” he said. Hammonds said OSU-specific activities like spending time on Oval Beach did not influence his decision when choosing a school, so the semester switch shortening the spring season isn’t a big issue to him. OSU graduate teaching associate in Spanish and Portuguese Daniela Salcedo has an office in Hagerty Hall that overlooks the Oval. The students laying out in the sun do not bother her as much as the numerous frisbees flying around. However, the whole concept of Oval Beach confuses her. “Especially since I am a foreigner and I am not from here, it impacts me as I always interpret it as a cultural difference or cultural shock more or less, but I have seen my American colleagues also being intrigued by it. We do not understand exactly what is going on,” Salcedo said. The graduate student relates Oval Beach as having to do more with undergraduates than older students such as herself. While Oval Beach has become somewhat of a tradition at OSU, without the couple of months’ warm weather in the past, it might not have been. However, Ellis said he doesn’t think Oval Beach will disappear just because students might spend less time on campus in spring temperatures. “I still think it might be around, especially during the May Session, because I know a lot of people that are staying for May or even for graduation right after exams,” Ellis said. “But even after that, it’s five weeks we’re not in school.”

continuations Obama’s visits in the final months of the campaign and no state had more presidential visits than Ohio. Despite having a high-profile speaker for commencement ceremonies and high security measures, Gee said his job will not change on graduation day. “I’ve conducted commencement ceremonies for 33 years,” he said. “I’ve had a number of presidents, prime ministers, Nobel laureates. My job is just the same, that is to make certain that we have a wonderful time and the parents are happy,” he said. Each student was initially allotted four tickets for their guests. The number rose to six tickets per graduate, and graduates were able to take an online survey requesting more. Lisa Gillmore, a fourth-year in communication, said she initially planned to invite 12 friends and family members to watch her graduate. “Initially I was shocked and I thought it was wrong because graduation has always been an open ceremony,” Gillmore said. “I remember going to my

Blood from 1A determined there was not sufficient data to support a modification in the policy and voted 9-6 to maintain it. As a result of unchanged policy, the “Brothers in Blood” drive was created. The first drive was held in October 2011 with the idea that those who were not eligible to donate could bring friends to give blood in their place, said Rodney Wilson, communications manager for the Central Ohio Region of the Red Cross. There was also the opportunity to sign a pledge against the policy. “It’s a positive protest of the policy in a way that we’re still helping patients and we’re still showing the FDA the desire to help and that even more could have been collected if this policy weren’t in place,” Wilson said. Many people believe the policy has been put in place by the Red Cross, which is one misconception Wilson wants to clarify. “I think the main purpose of a blood drive with Outlook Media on this concept ‘Brothers in Blood’ is to educate people about this policy,” he said. “Many people don’t know that the policy exists and some people know about the policy but they think that it’s a Red Cross policy and that the Red Cross discriminates against gay people. So we want to educate the community that the Red Cross does not agree with this policy.” The blood drive has been held the past two years in October, but this was the first time OSU became involved. Chris Hayes, president of Outlook Media, said

cousins’ (commencements) and I wanted them to be there for me too.” Gillmore said the online ticket requests could go to “10 or more” tickets but she felt constrained to request 10 tickets, even though she had planned to invite more than 10 people. “I’m actually kind of scared because I don’t know how it’s going to work,” she said. Aiesha White said she hadn’t considered how many tickets she was going to need before the announcement was made. “I thought it was interesting but I wasn’t surprised given the construction and the speaker,” said White, a fourth-year in international studies. “I know a few of my friends with big families, and especially with a lot of siblings, were disappointed.” Gee said he is hopeful every student will be able to bring the number of guests they want. “I think it’s working its way through that most people are able to get the tickets they want for the significant members of their family and I think that’s worked out very well,” Gee said.

the group was very excited to partner with the MCC for the event. “Any efforts that we can bring collaborative partners together to help promote and fight against the ban the FDA has on MSM and gay men from giving blood is not only greatly appreciated but is invaluable to getting the unjust rule overturned,” he said. Hayes said he feels OSU’s desire to help is positive. “It’s great when young people get involved in causes,” he said. The MCC decided to join the efforts for “Brothers in Blood” upon seeing the message it was trying to send, said Habiba Kamagate, coordinator of central programs and multicultural wellness initiatives at the MCC. The group’s involvement in the blood drive received positive feedback from students. “We weren’t expecting to get any push-back,” she said. “We figured that a lot of people would have questions about it or what encouraged us to do a blood drive like this, but for the most part it’s been really supportive.” Besides collecting blood donations, Kamagate said she hoped students walked away understanding the differences that exist among people in the community and they should help one another as a result. “Outside of the fact that this blood drive is about giving life, we hope that students really pay attention to the other message we’re trying to get across,” Kamagate said. “That there are a lot of people who walk this campus who look just like you, who are in class with you that don’t necessarily have the same freedoms and the same rights to do the things that you’re able to do.”

studentvoice Minaj should do ‘Idol’ favor, quit judging TYLER SMIGELSKI For The Lantern smigelski.12@osu.edu Some reports are saying that rap queen Nicki Minaj will not be returning to FOX’s “American Idol” after her current contract for Season 12 of the show expires. Although accounts of backstage politics on “American Idol” vary, reportedly, the cast and crew are fed up with Minaj’s diva-like antics, ranging from seemingly ongoing spats with co-judge Mariah Carey to walking out on various tapings of the show. Most recently, Minaj got into an on-air and on-Twitter fight with former “American Idol” contestant Devin Velez, telling Velez to “get off the stage” after he forgot certain verses of the song “I Can’t Help Myself” by The Four Tops. Velez tried to defend himself in a phone conference in the following days, stating it’s never clear as to which Minaj will be at the judge’s table because of her “multiple personalities” and that sometimes Minaj forgets the contestants are still human, disregarding their emotions. Minaj then fired back, in an overall condescending and mocking tone on Twitter, stating if she didn’t want Velez to get to the point in the competition that he did, then he wouldn’t have. This particular incident between Minaj and Velez is only the most recent in a extensive laundry list of confrontations that Minaj has been in since her start at “American Idol,” not including even the longer list of feuds in her career. And quite frankly, America is tired of hearing about it. Although her strong and fiercely independent nature can be an excellent example for America’s youth, the constant fighting, bickering and abrasive nature of Minaj is everything but a good example for not only America’s youth but for her fans worldwide. The way in which Minaj carries herself along with her seemingly irrational thought processes in her actions and words is slowly tarnishing her

With Facebook groups such as “Remove Nicki Minaj From American Idol” popping up across the web, signs only point to a growing attitude of disdain toward her. Her music is admittedly infectious and deserves to be in the ranks of the top artists of the current Top 40 music industry, but her attitude, false sense of superiority and image are a complete turn-offs to a wide audience. With having zero Grammy Awards and only two MTV VMAs, the origin of her sense of superiority is unknown and seemingly unfounded. It’s time for a reality check Ms. Minaj, and maybe an un-renewed contract for Season 13 of “American Idol” could do the trick.

Aside from her antics away from music, her singles from albums “Pink Friday” and “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” have been widely successful and accepted in the Top 40 music industry, exemplifying that Minaj is a key player in the popular music arena of today. And that’s just what we want, for Minaj to focus on making her famed beats instead of creating highly publicized fights with anyone in her path. If she sticks to creating music, Minaj will continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the popular music game, but if she persists on this aggressive path, Minaj’s career could be in jeopardy.

Social media has swept the world over the past 10 years. Everyone from 10-year-olds to senior citizens are participating on social websites such as Facebook and Twitter. As a college student, social media is a great way to meet people on campus, find out what fun things are going on and to stay in contact with fellow students. However, if you are an athlete at Ohio State, you might have a different feeling about social media altogether. An article printed in The Lantern in March titled “Ohio State set to enact social media policy for Twitter, Facebook” spoke of how OSU will try to implement regulations on social media. While these regulations are more focused on university accounts, it brings up the question of how much regulation will be done over student-athletes’ social media accounts. I am in the sports industry major at OSU and have many student-athletes in my classes. According to some of my classmates, their social media accounts like Facebook and Twitter are monitored and they have rules on things they can or cannot say. This in turn has led many student-athletes to not use social media at all. I believe the university should allow students the freedom to be adults and make adult decisions and face the consequences of negative actions. While regulations can help monitor OSU’s image to the rest of the world, it takes away from the learning experience of being an adult and being accountable for your actions. I believe this to be a direct violation of the First Amendment. Tommy Householder Fourth-year in sports industry householder.54@osu.edu

One-and-done rule not enough time for athletes to mature Letter to the editor: A big issue in college basketball these days is the one-and-done rule. This rule prohibits a player from entering the NBA straight out of high school and says players must complete one year of college before making the jump to the big league. Some say this rule needs to go away altogether, but I believe the rule needs to be revamped. The majority of kids coming out of high school are still immature and undisciplined for what lies ahead in life. One year of college is a good start for getting a player the coaching and discipline he needs, but it’s not nearly enough time to mature to become the type of person they want to be. It’s not adequate time to live on your own and learn to handle difficult situations in life.

I think a player going straight to the NBA out of high school or even spending one year in college and then playing with the pros doesn’t get the kind of life lessons and experiences the player would in more than one year of college. Those types of lessons can only be taught through living on your own and making choices for yourself. I think the new rule should be a minimum of two years of college before being eligible for the NBA draft. I believe with at least two years of college, a player is able to mature and be more disciplined in life and will be better prepared for playing in the NBA.

‘Finding Nemo’ sequel a long time coming CLAYTON FULLER Lantern reporter fuller.285@osu.edu Doooo youuu speeeaak whaaaale? If not, no worries — Dory, our favorite whalespeaking, Nemo-finding fish, is back. Tuesday on the “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” DeGeneres revealed that Pixar will make a sequel to “Finding Nemo.” Her excitement was palpable and completely understandable, as DeGeneres will reprise her role as the voice of Dory in the sequel, “Finding Dory.” After 10 years of hilariously campaigning for a sequel on her show, DeGeneres finally got her wish. “I have waited for this day for a long, long,

long, long, long, long time,” she said. “I’m not mad it took this long. I know the people at Pixar were busy creating ‘Toy Story 16.’ But the time they took was worth it. The script is fantastic. And it has everything I loved about the first one: It’s got a lot of heart, it’s really funny, and the best part is — it’s got a lot more Dory.” In the first movie, Dory aids the courageous Marlin, who is of course a clownfish and not a marlin, in finding his captured son, Nemo. Even though the movie came out way back in 2003, many fans of the film will remember that when Marlin first came across forgetful blue tang Dory she was all alone. In the sequel, we’ll finally get a better understanding of the lovable sidekick as she is reunited with her family. It’s hard not to be excited about Pixar’s latest announcement as the folks over there seem

to know what they’re doing — “Toy Story 3,” released in 2010, is one of the highest-grossing animated films of all time. And that was a sequel to a sequel. However, there is a small detail accompanying this pleasant news that will no doubt dampen the spirits of some. Ellen herself noted “the thing about these movies (is) they’re brilliant and they take a long time to make. So, it won’t be in theaters until 2015.” Pixar has stated that the release date is set to be Nov. 25, 2015. “It’s not that far away,” DeGeneres reminded her studio audience Tuesday. “We have 1,395,362 minutes to go.”

California-native Kyle Eastwood has composed several film scores for Clint Eastwood productions, including “Gran Torino,” “An Unlikely Weapon,” “Invictus” and “Letters from Iwo Jima.” “I enjoyed working with (my dad), it was a good experience,” Kyle Eastwood said. “I’ve grown up watching him work, seeing him make films. I kind of know how (film-making) works and I know what he likes, so we have a good working relationship. He’s a good boss.” Kyle Eastwood said his interest in jazz spawned from hearing it at home. “That’s the music I grew up listening to around the house,” he said. “I really got into it when my parents took me to the Monterey Jazz festival when I was really young. I was fortunate to see a lot of greats in the ‘70s and ‘80s.” He said his new album is influenced by many different genres. “I listen to a lot of different stuff,” Kyle Eastwood said. “Everything from African, to R&B, to groove.” Kyle Eastwood has played jazz for 15 years. He moved to Paris six years ago in hopes of generating more exposure to his music. “Jazz is widely appreciated in Paris and Europe

Kyle Eastwood is slated to play with his band at the Short North Stage’s Green Room April 6. compared to the U.S.,” Kyle Eastwood said. “I was looking for different opportunities to play.” In line with Kyle Eastwood’s European influences, Noah Rogers, associate producer for the Short North Stage, said the Green Room is a favorite among jazz artists because of its European design. “The sound circulates like wind and it fills the whole space,” Rodgers said. “It’s better than a

standard room with hardwood floors … every surface in the room has potential to absorb sound and bounce sound back.” Kyle Eastwood’s show is presented by Jazz Arts Group Columbus, an organization that promotes jazz in Columbus. The organization is celebrating Jazz Appreciation Month with its “Inside Track” series, designed to support smaller ensembles and cutting-edge artists, said Scott Vezdos, director of marketing and communications for Jazz Arts Group Columbus. “We want to develop (an event series) that is more affordable and would appeal to a younger audience,” Vezdos said. With that concept in mind, Vezdos said Kyle Eastwood appeals to a wider range of audiences. “He’s a younger artist,” Vezdos said. “A lot of jazz musicians we present are older. Kyle is not just a great musician, but he has that crossover appeal to many generations.” The jazz cabaret atmosphere is intended to draw in many college students, Vezdos said. “That younger audience … can come enjoy a drink, walk around and leave whenever they want,” Vezdos said. This is Kyle Eastwood’s first time playing in Columbus, and tickets have sold well, Rogers said. “The name recognition helps too,” he said. Kyle Eastwood said while his name does attract attention as the son of a famous actor and director, he is going to continue composing and playing shows. “I know the name gets attention, hopefully people judge music on its own merit,” Kyle Eastwood said. “I’ve been doing (jazz) for quite a while now. Hopefully I’ll just keep growing as a musician and composer.” Tickets are $20 for each show and can be purchased through Vendini.

Tales from Edgar Allen Poe to take the stage in OSU Department of Theatre production JULIA HIDER Lantern reporter hider.8@osu.edu Edgar Allan Poe is best known for horror and mystery, but there is a perhaps lesser-known theme that runs through many of his works — women. The Ohio State Department of Theatre’s production of “aPOEtheosis: A Fantasy Based on the Life and Work of Edgar Allan Poe” is scheduled to open Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the Roy Bowen Theatre. Joseph Brandesky,a professor in the Department of Theatre at OSU-Lima, co-conceived the play with Czech scenographer Petr Matásek. The play is based on various short stories and poems by Poe, including “The Tell-Tale Heart,” “The Pit and the Pendulum,” “The Bells,” “Annabel Lee” and “The Raven.” “I don’t know that it’s possible to do a show about Poe and not reference ‘The Raven,’” Brandesky said. As Brandesky and Matásek went through Poe’s works, they noticed a theme. “There is something which is common to all of these stories — women,” Matásek said. Alaina Orchard, a first-year graduate student in

theater who helped write the script, said while they always intended for that to be a theme of the show, it ended up being a much stronger influence than they originally thought it would be. “The woman idea … actually evolved to be a bigger part of the final performance because of the strong female turnout and the strong female performers we were able to cast,” Orchard said. Brandesky said he and Matásek decided to use the works of Poe as the basis for their play because although Poe is an American author, many of his themes, such as that of the grotesque, work well in tying “the Czech aesthetic with American topics.” Orchard said combining Czech theatrical tradition, which is vibrant and “really visually centered,” and American theater into one performance has its ups and downs. “It’s all more complicated than just doing a traditional collegiate production,” Orchard said. “But it makes it more interesting.” Brandesky said using Poe’s somewhat familiar works was also helpful for the students involved in the production. “If (they’re) going to be expressing things in ways they’re not used to, at least they have the content that they are somehow familiar with,” Brandesky said. One of the unusual ways in which students

Brandesky said at first, the students had a difficult time getting used to using the puppet. “They were scared of it to begin with,” Brandesky said. “It’s a piece of carved wood, but I think humans are innately superstitious about seeing copies of ourselves.” But Matásek and Brandesky agree that the students have learned how to use the puppet well as a character object in the performance.

“They realized the strength of (them) being with it,” Matásek said. “So it’s more or less something that they actually use for their own expression.” Show times for “aPOEtheosis” are Thursday through Saturday and April 10-13 at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, Sunday and April 14 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $15 for students and are available through Ticketmaster or at the OSU Theatre Box Office. The Roy Bowen Theatre is located in the Drake Performance and Event Center at 1849 Cannon Drive.

Meyer wants QBs rough and tough dan hope Oller reporter hope.46@osu.edu Whether it was an apparent knee injury at Michigan State or a hit to the head versus Purdue, then-sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller made Ohio State football fans hold their breaths last season on multiple occasions when he had to leave the field due to injury. Miller went through another injury scare Tuesday during the Buckeyes’ ninth practice of the spring football season. The reigning Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year was slow to get up following a hit during a team scrimmage near the end of practice. Following Tuesday’s practice, coach Urban Meyer said his junior quarterback was also hit during practice Thursday and is dealing with a sore rib. Miller was clearly unhappy about the hit — it occurred after the ball was out of his hands — and he approached the defensive sideline to confront a teammate before being restrained by coaches. He returned to throw more passes later in the scrimmage. Meyer said he was glad to see his quarterback’s competitive side even after the hit. “I like quarterbacks that want to go get in a street fight and go after it,” Meyer said. “That’s not probably the time to do it, but he’s a competitor. So you’re asking what kind of reaction would I want out of a quarterback? … That’s better than the opposite, (to) just lay on the ground and curl up … He’s a tough kid.” Offensive line issues Junior offensive lineman Antonio Underwood suffered a torn ACL during practice Thursday, Meyer said Tuesday. Meyer said it is a shame that Underwood suffered the injury, which will sideline him for the 2013 season. “For the first time

in his career, he’s made a real push,” Meyer said of Underwood. “He’s going to have surgery, and we’ll see what happens, but he was having a heck of a spring.” Meyer said Underwood was “fighting his way into the rotation.” “He was in the top eight (offensive lineman on the depth chart),” Meyer said. Losing Underwood is not Meyer’s only concern with his offensive line. Meyer and the Buckeyes are still trying to determine their starter at right tackle where they are replacing last year’s starter, Reid Fragel, whose OSU career concluded last fall. Meyer said no one has established himself as a starter yet at the position, but it is currently a three-way competition between sophomore Taylor Decker, redshirt sophomore Chase Farris and redshirt freshman Pat Elflein. “That’s the hardest position to make a jump,” Meyer said of the right tackle position. Meyer said Decker, who was the early favorite to start, is “probably a little ahead of where Fragel was” at this point in the spring football season last year, as Fragel was still transitioning to the position after playing his first three OSU seasons at tight end. Meyer said Decker needs to make the same strides that Fragel did last season. Offense and defense compete in scrimmages The offense and defense competed against one another in a scrimmage to conclude Tuesday’s practice, which the offense won on a touchdown pass to the right rear corner of the end zone from redshirt senior quarterback Kenny Guiton to redshirt sophomore tight end Nick Vannett. Points were awarded to the offense for first downs and touchdowns and to

Five hundred and eleven Buckeyes were honored as Ohio State Scholar-Athletes Monday at the 46th Annual Scholar-Athlete Dinner at Archie Griffin Ballroom in the Ohio Union. The Big Ten Medal of Honor was given to senior fencer Max Stearns and senior softball player Alicia Herron. There were 10 finalists: senior women’s soccer star Tiffany Cameron, senior Katarzyna Dabrowa of the fencing team, senior volleyball player Mari Hole, senior synchronized swimmer Caitlin Stewart, Herron, senior football player Ben Buchanan, senior wrestler C.J. Magrum, redshirt senior tennis player Devin McCarthy, senior volleyball player John Tholen and Stearns. Fourteen student-athletes received honors at the dinner for having 4.0 cumulative GPAs, including Stearns. “This is my fourth (time receiving the honor) and it’s honestly a huge honor … some of the people here are just the best in their field both athletically and … academically,” Stearns said. “I’m just excited to be recognized for all of these awards.”

Buckeyes with 4 games left to earn spot in ECAC tournament Daniel Rogers Lantern reporter rogers.746@osu.edu With just four games remaining in the regular season, the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team sits one game behind Bellarmine for the fourth and final Eastern College Athletic Conference tournament spot heading into this weekend’s matchup against Hobart. A loss to Loyola (Md.) last weekend dropped Buckeyes’ conference record to 1-2 on the year. Hobart sits at 4-5 overall on the year but is tied with OSU for fifth in the ECAC with a 1-2 conference record. Senior midfielder Dominique Alexander knows that the season is coming to an end but isn’t worried about potentially being left out of the postseason. “We’re not necessarily worried, we’re just going to take it one game at a time,” Alexander said. “Our focus is completely on Hobart right now and getting this win.” Recent matchups have seen the Buckeyes struggle to find offensive production, only scoring eight goals total in contests against Notre Dame and Loyola (Md.).

A matchup with Hobart could be exactly what the Buckeyes need to get back on track. On the year, Hobart is allowing nearly 12 goals a game. Coach Nick Myers said he’s not concerned about OSU’s offensive well-being. “We’ve proven that we can score goals, we have confidence in the guys that we have,” Myers said. “We’re sharing the ball well offensively. We just have to generate more quality shots and be more mindful of some of the turnovers.” Senior attacker Nick Liddil said he’s noticed the offensive issues but thinks there’s an easy solution. “We just have to play like a team,” Liddil said. “Play Buckeye lacrosse and play like we know how to. Hopefully we can have a better offensive output than last week.” OSU is set to play the bottom two teams in the ECAC, Air Force and Michigan, on the road before finishing the season at home against Fairfield. Saturday’s game against Hobart is set for noon at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium.

the defense for stops and forced turnovers, but Meyer declined a request to explain the scoring system. “That’s between me and Mick (Mickey Marotti, assistant athletic director for football sports performance),” Meyer said. Other scrimmage highlights included a 51-yard field goal made by senior kicker Drew Basil and a deep-ball interception returned past midfield by sophomore cornerback Armani Reeves, though Reeves was also beaten for a couple of deep pass completions. The Buckeyes had a scrimmage Saturday as well, which Meyer said the defense won. The Buckeyes will practice twice more this week on Thursday and Saturday, with Saturday’s practice being the program’s second annual Student Appreciation Day, which is open to students and begins at 11 a.m. OSU has five more spring practices between this week and next week leading up to the LiFESports Spring Game, which will be played April 13 at 1 p.m. in Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati.

The award provides a one-time stipend for postgraduate studies at OSU and has a minimum GPA requirement of 3.0.

Gordon Gee, athletic director Gene Smith, associate professor of law and chair for the OSU Athletic Council Charlie Wilson and president of the Student-Athlete Advisory Board Billy Gehring, a redshirt senior on the men’s track and field team and fivetime scholar-athlete. The MC for the evening was Columbus Blue Jackets announcer Bill Davidge. Men’s basketball junior guard Aaron Craft, who was attending his third Scholar-Athlete Dinner, said he was honored to be invited again. “It’s fun to be around all of these people and it means a lot,” Craft said. “I came here to play basketball and everything, but to get an education that’s above a lot of other places and be successful, and be recognized for it means a lot.”
