OSU police staffing per student worst in B1G Caitlin essig Managing editor for content essig.21@osu.edu Ohio State has the lowest number of officers per student among Big Ten and Midwestern universities, leading some local law enforcement officials to question safety on campus.

A May 2013 internal staffing analysis from the OSU Police Division states the need for hiring 10 to 13 full-time officers “to balance the amount of time required for response to calls from our community based on 2012 CAD call data.”

CAD stands for computer-assisted dispatch, which is the system used by the University Police 911 dispatchers.

University spokesman Gary Lewis said, however, “it is not accurate to report that we have a shortage of at least 10-13 officers.”

“In looking at the last seven years of our staffing levels, at our highest staffing in 2008, we had 52 officers,” Lewis said in an email. “We currently have 46 sworn officers and are in the process of hiring one officer to replace someone who retired in January, which will bring us to 47, which is consistent with where our staffing levels have been.”

Columbus Division of Police Sgt. Shaun Laird, who spoke on behalf of University Police as the secretary for a local chapter of the Fraternal Order of Police, said the change in staffing levels, though, should raise concerns.

“In the last seven years, (University Police) had 52 officers at one point, and they’re basically saying that 52 to 46 is a wash,” he said. “And it’s really a 10 percent reduction. Ten percent when you have that few of people to start with is pretty dramatic. And as you can guess, if you had a 10 percent decrease in student enrollment or a 10 percent decrease in state funding, it would be front page news.

“Ohio State says, ‘We want to be the best at everything,’ and they’re certainly not the best at safety. And they’re actually the worst.”

Issues of under-staffing were highlighted recently when Capt. Eric Chin of Purdue University Police Department compiled data that showed OSU had the lowest rate of officers per student in the Big Ten and Midwest. The study notes that OSU has about .85 officers per 1,000 students, and the number has since been adjusted to about .80 officers per 1,000 students, as the number of officers is currently 46, not 48 as the data originally suggested.

Laird said it’s important to note not all 46 officers are actively patrolling, nor do all 46 work at once.

The internal report states a typical shift is staffed by five officers, with one assigned to OSU East Hospital.

Because of a shortage in officers, however, Laird said having an officer stationed at OSU East Hospital at all times could become a thing of the past.

“As a measure because staffing numbers are so low, they’re proposing that they’re going to pull the officers out of OSU East,” Laird said. “So they have basically 24-hour coverage at the hospital, and they’re saying they’re going to pull those officers out.”

Northwestern leads the list of Big Ten and Midwestern universities with 2.9 officers per 1,000 students, followed by the University of Notre Dame, with 2.3 officers per 1,000 students, according to Chin’s report.

According to OSU’s 2013 annual campus security and fire safety report, there were 22 reports of burglary, four of aggravated assault, two of robbery and 21 of forcible sex offenses in 2012.

Northwestern’s 2013 annual campus security and fire safety report noted 17 reports of burglary, one of aggravated assault, no robberies and two reports of forcible sex offenses on its main campus in that same period.

There is, however, also a disparity in the population of the two schools, with OSU having about 40,000 more students than Northwestern, according to the police staffing data report.

OSU’s Columbus campus has the third largest

population on the list (behind Michigan and Rutgers University, which have the third and second lowest officer-to-student ratio, respectively) and the largest amount of building space.

The report said OSU needs more than 67 officers based on the overall Big Ten police officer to student ratio, and it should employ more than 84 officers to match up to the overall Midwest ratio.

The University Police internal report said a possible alternative to hiring more officers is continuing to use overtime funding for current officers, although the report warns against that.

“Use of overtime funding is not desirable based on the strain on existing staff, cost-per-hour for coverage, lack of flexibility when greater numbers of officers are needed and negative public perception based on high individual salaries,” the report states.

Laird said mandating officers to work overtime could be dangerous for both the officers and constituents.

“After a while, although the money sounds good at first, after a while you become stretched pretty thin,” Laird said. “And the university has so many things that they need covered, because it’s such a big university, that the officers are working all this mandated overtime start to have burn out, things like that.

“The other concern is if you’re having to use all this overtime all the time, then that means probably

Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC political talk show ‘Hardball with Chris Matthews,’ is set to speak at OSU’s Spring 2014 Commencement.

Michele Theodore Copy chief theodore.13@osu.edu Some Ohio State students set to graduate in May said the commencement speaker is a somewhat surprising choice, especially after last year’s speech was given by President Barack Obama.

Some, however, are hoping OSU’s selection will still give a memorable speech without playing hard ball.

Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC political talk show “Hardball with Chris Matthews,” is set to speak at Ohio State’s Spring 2014 Commencement May 4 at Ohio Stadium.

Caleb Inboden, a fourth-year in theatre and graduating senior, said he was expecting to see someone associated with OSU chosen.

“I was a little confused at first,” Inboden said. “Last year, they got President Obama and even for the fall commencement, they got R.L. Stine who’s associated with the university, so I was wondering their reasoning behind it.”

Matthews graduated from Holy Cross College in 1967 and has served as a visiting fellow at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics.

Eric Seger Sports editor seger.25@osu.edu The ball bounced off the front of the rim and fell to the floor at the First Niagara Center. Ohio State’s season was over.

Dayton had a 60-59 advantage when the buzzer echoed throughout the rafters and signaled the end of the careers of two of the most accomplished players OSU has ever seen — senior guards Lenzelle Smith Jr. and Aaron Craft.

But as their season ended Thursday in the NCAA Tournament’s second round, next season’s outlook is somewhat of a mixed bag with the unexpected departure of a bench player and an incoming Top 5 recruiting class.

As it currently stands, OSU is set to have just 11 players on scholarship when practice for the 2014-15 season opens this fall. Losing Craft and Smith Jr. will likely hurt from a leadership standpoint, but coach Thad Matta has five returning players who are on scholarship and will be seniors, provided forward LaQuinton Ross doesn’t bounce to the NBA. “Both guys, you look at how many games they’ve won here, championships they’ve been a part of, it’s really an amazing four years,” Matta said of Craft and Smith Jr. March 7. “With that said, both guys have had a major impact on this program in terms of making it better. And that’s what we ask guys to do.”

Craft said in the locker room after his final game as a Buckeye that junior guard Shannon Scott needs to step up as a leader next season, but filling that void can’t just fall on him.

“Obviously he has some big games under his belt and he’s experienced this, but it’s not just going to fall on one guy’s shoulders. Guy like (junior forward) Sam (Thompson) can help, too,” Craft said.

The number of players on scholarships is one less than it would have been even with the departure of Craft and Smith Jr., because sophomore guard Amedeo Della Valle told Matta and his staff Saturday that he intends to head back home to Italy and pursue a professional career in Europe. Della Valle posted a message to his personal Twitter account, @Ame_ DV_33, Saturday afternoon announcing his farewell.

“I wouldn’t trade this experience with anything else, B1G Champions, the run to the Elite 8, the 12-0 year, man was that special,” the message read. “It is now time for me to begin new experiences as I decided to head back to Europe to continue to play PRO basketball.”

So with three men gone and the potential to lose another in Ross — who said his decision would come

Junior guard Shannon Scott (3) guards Dayton freshman guard Scoochie Smith (11). OSU lost to Dayton, 60-59, at First Niagara Center March 20. “in the next couple of weeks” — Matta and company have some rebuilding to do.

Matta signed yet another top 5 recruiting class for next season, bringing in guard D’Angelo Russell, forwards Keita Bates-Diop and Jae’Sean Tate and center David Bell. It’s a class Matta said he’s excited to coach.

“The biggest thing with this particular class is we got what we wanted,” Matta said Nov. 14.

Russell, 21st in the ESPN top 150 rankings, is likely to figure largely in the rotation next year to help replace Craft and Smith Jr.’s production. Tate is recovering from surgery for a torn labrum in his right shoulder and is out for the rest of his senior season so it remains to be seen when he will be 100 percent, and Bates-Diop and Bell likely have their work cut out for them to get minutes unless Ross leaves.

Another player who will figure into the equation is current freshman guard Kam Williams, who sat out all year after battling through mono and missing the bulk of training camp.

All season long, something appeared off with the team, whether it be a lack of instinct, absence of ability to consistently put points on the board or an undependable post presence.

“(Fans) deserve an answer. They deserved an answer all year. They’ve seen us play well, and they’ve seen us play like this,” Craft said after the loss to the Flyers Thursday. “Nothing is guaranteed and that’s one of the tougher things to get across from people. My time’s done now, so it’s on these guys to learn from what this season’s been. How hard it’s been. How difficult we’ve made it on ourselves at times. That’s what they gotta do.”

Returning to try and fill in the blanks are juniors in Thompson, Scott and center Amir Williams, who all averaged at least 7.5 points per game in OSU’s 25-win campaign. Junior center Trey McDonald is also set to return, but he only averaged 2.0 points per game and 1.7 rebounds off the bench this season.

Scoring points will be a premium for the Buckeyes next year, as aside from Ross, no one really stepped up to be that second scorer the team so desperately needed.

“It’s one of those things where everybody wants to be that guy. But the guys got to be willing to do the things in terms of work ethic and in terms of the system and knowing that,” Matta said. “You see guys have great off-seasons, and hopefully we have that.”

After a flight disappeared more than two weeks ago halfway around the world, some faculty and staff at Ohio State said the search is like looking for a needle in a yet-to-be discovered haystack.

Malaysian Airlines Flight MH370 from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing took off at 12:41 a.m.

March 8 and then vanished from radars shortly after 1 a.m. It was scheduled to land at 6:30 a.m. and was carrying 227 passengers from 14 countries and 12 crew members. Some radars picked up signals from what was likely MH370 later in the night that showed it had flown away from its scheduled path, but as of Sunday evening, there was no complete theory as to where the plane had gone.

OSU’s Center for Aviation Studies director Seth Young put the size of the search into perspective.

“The area that the investigators are targeting on right now is an area about the size of the United States, and they started to focus on an area maybe the size of the Great Lakes region,” Young said. “We are looking for an aircraft when whole is only 200 feet long by 200 feet wide, and when broken up into pieces during a crash, these pieces could be as small as a piece of an upholstery seat.”

The United States’ area is about 3.72 million square feet, according to the United States Department of the Interior’s National Atlas, and the Great Lakes region covers 94,250 square miles of water area, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency website.

Young said he doesn’t think there is evidence to support a terrorist-related theory.

“As an aviation safety person, what I try to do is gather evidence that would lead towards a certain determination, and at this point, I haven’t seen any evidence that points towards any malicious act,” Young said.

Young said an emergency or problem on the plane could have prompted the pilot to try to find a safe place to land.

“Because the plane was only about 35 minutes into its flight, sometimes the instinct of the pilot is to turn back home,” Young said.

Young said he believes there are airfields

campus Speakers encourage data accessibility at OSU conference KARLIE FRANK Lantern reporter frank.359@osu.edu The Big Data Future conference hosted industry experts from the likes of IBM, Microsoft Corp. and Twitter Inc. last week to talk about the possibilities for big data to improve economic, social and political life.

“Big data is about using all kinds of data in large quantities in ways that can be analyzed in sophisticated ways that wouldn’t be possible without data of that magnitude,” said keynote speaker Joel Gurin in an interview with The Lantern before the conference.

Gurin is the founder of Open Data Now, which posts public data, and former chair of the President Barack Obama White House Task Force on Smart Disclosure.

Peter Shane, professor at Ohio State Moritz College of Law and adviser of the student-run journal at Moritz College of Law, “I/S: A Journal of Law and Policy for the Information Society,” said the conference was a “crash course for non-experts in what big data is all about.”

“This big data phenomenon seems to be showing up everywhere in peoples’ lives … There’s all kinds of claims made about how this is all wonderful or may be threatening,” Shane said.

The conference brought together a group of scholars

Open data is about making data publicly available ... What data do consumers need to make choices that are important in their lives?

Joel Gurin Founder of Open Data Now to discuss how data is collected, challenges and limitations it faces, and opportunities it provides in terms of building the economy and holding the government accountable, Shane said.

Gurin, who was one of 26 participants, according to the conference website, said there are ways to make more big data “open data.”

“Open data is about making data publicly available.

If you think about the data the NSA is collecting about individuals, that’s big data but that’s not open data,” Gurin said. “What data do consumers need to make choices that are important in their lives? That’s what I’ve been working on.”

Gurin said the ability to analyze both types of data is vital for consumers and businesses.

Plane from 1A west of the plane’s initial location, which could have prompted the pilot to turn west rather than to continue going north and thus leading to its disappearance.

Shawn Pruchnicki, an OSU professor who teaches aviation safety, human factors, accident investigation and complex aircraft operation, said the disappearance could be because of mechanical issues.

“Sometimes what happens is when (lithium batteries) are jostled around or when they break, they can heat up and catch not only themselves, but the cargo pit catches on fire,” Pruchnicki said.

“They’re really fast-moving, devastating fires that usually aircraft fire suppresser systems are not able to suppress.”

He said the batteries are sometimes transported in the cargo area of the plane.

Pruchnicki compared the disappearance to a 2010 UPS cargo jet crash, which allegedly was caused by a fire created by the transportation of flammable lithium batteries.

Along with incapacitating the pilots, Pruchnicki said a fire could damage the navigation system and leave the plane traveling in its current direction.

“You can build a $1 billion business literally off free government data … The Climate Corporation took a lot of data on weather and other factors and they analyzed it to such a degree that they can help farmers increase profitability by 20 to 30 percent.

They built (their business) off basic data that theoretically anyone could use. What they brought to it was the ability to analyze it brilliantly,” Gurin said.

Scientific research is a notable area where big and open data is increasingly used, Gurin said.

“If you can share data among scientists early on, you can make progress much more rapidly,” Gurin said.

Ray Harishankar, IBM Fellow and vice president of Technology and Innovation within IBM Global Business Services, said he was excited to talk about the applications of big data in the social media sphere.

“How can I look at social media, like Facebook?

How can I look at what’s being said in social media and drive businesses (from it)?” Harishankar said.

The free, three-day conference was hosted and organized by “I/S: A Journal of Law and Policy for the Information Society.”

Shane said I/S puts on conferences annually, but this year’s was the largest one they’ve hosted.

“Every spring, we put on a conference on some topics at the intersection of law, policy and information technology. This conference is a kind of celebration of the journal’s 10th anniversary … We were able to get a grant to support the conference from the Battelle Endowment for Technology and Human Affairs,” Shane said.

The grant totaled $42,244, Shane said, used for covering the majority of the conference’s costs.

The Center for Interdisciplinary Law and Policy Studies at the college and the Battelle Center for Science and Technology Policy also helped sponsor the event.

Rehgan Avon, a third-year in industrial and systems engineering, said she attended the conference to supplement course work in her major.

“I (went) mostly because my major just started a new analytical track … (Big data) has really interested me for a while and (the conference was) on campus so (it was) convenient,” Avon said.

Avon echoed Gurin’s hopes of making big data more accessible.

“The most surprising thing I learned was the fact that they’re a lot of restrictions on access to data and that’s affecting things that can be life changing for people,” Avon said.

“If the navigation system fails, that airplane will maintain (the direction) its heading,” Pruchnicki said.

Young said the radar coverage around the area of Thailand, South China and India also has much less radar coverage than the United States, where airplanes are under constant surveillance.

Bad weather conditions have also created problems in searching for the plane, and Pruchnicki said the rough waters can create visibility problems.

“It’s not like you’re cruising along at 5,000 feet and you look out and you can see 20 miles all around you and you would notice a seat cushion or debris. That’s really hard to see small items like that, especially in rough seas,” Pruchnicki said.

The search has been using satellite images and planes, among other means.

The rough weather, including high winds, can also allow for possible plane wreckage pieces to be scattered further throughout the ocean, Pruchnicki said.

Jailyn Soto-Quintana, a third-year in political science, said the disappearance worries her.

“People don’t just disappear. This isn’t a movie, this isn’t a fairy tale,” Soto-Quintana said. “(The disappearance) is a huge deal. We should know where these people are and why they are gone.”

Jeremy Jett, a third-year in international studies, said the airplane’s disappearance doesn’t surprise him that much.

“It’s definitely unusual. If all the GPS systems were turned off, we don’t have satellites dedicated to tracking planes, so it’s definitely unusual but it’s not crazy,” Jett said.

While airplanes have disappeared in the past, Young said there are improvements that could be made to prevent similar situations from happening in the future.

“The proliferation of a 21st century technology to monitor the movement of aircraft is something that could definitely help,” Young said.

Pruchnicki said for now, no theories can be ruled out in the disappearance of flight MH370.

“It’s not like looking for a needle in the haystack, it’s like looking for a needle in Nebraska. We haven’t even found the haystack yet,” Pruchnicki said.

at one point there’s a, you probably need more officers to cover the mission. And their own staffing study says they need 10 to 13 more officers.”

Lewis said while the university only employs 46 police officers, the university’s safety precautions do not end there, as the university also employs “40 trained security officers for the academic campus and 57 uniformed security officers for the Wexner Medical Center,” along with Student Safety Service officers.

University Police Chief Paul Denton echoed that sentiment, in a statement emailed by Lewis.

“The safety of students, faculty, staff and visitors is our highest priority,” Denton said. “The strategy for public safety involves a combination of police officers, security officers, emergency management personnel, technology and community engagement. All of these are important in their own respect and additional resources would always be welcomed.”

Laird said, however, while there are additional security personnel, that does not necessarily measure up to having more police officers, as these personnel are unarmed.

Graduation from 1A Stine, meanwhile, is an OSU graduate.

“I wouldn’t say (Matthews is) a bad choice,” Inboden said. “He’s just one that kind of brings up some questions. Not in a bad way, just why he was chosen or what their reasoning (was).”

After the announcement was made that Matthews would be the speaker, many students used social media to voice their thoughts on the choice. Some expressed disapproval, and even disgust, with the choice, complaining about his liberal views.

Many view Matthews as a liberal pundit, and a review in The New York Times for his book “Tip and The Gipper: When Politics Worked” called him “an MSNBC talking head” and said he had a “brand of confidently asserted overgeneralization.”

Some students, though, said Matthews was a good choice.

“He asks really good questions of the politicians that come on (his show),” said Micah Dillard, a fourthyear in political science and economics. “He’s definitely a little soft on the people that come from the left, but I think he’s a pretty solid journalist.”

Dillard also said he expects Matthews will give a fairly typical graduation speech.

“Last year it was Barack Obama, so it’s sort of a hard act to follow up,” he said. “I’m looking forward to see what he has to say.”

Seth Teplitsky, a fourth-year in biology, said he was indifferent about the selection, but he hopes the speech will be meaningful.

“In a commencement speech, it doesn’t necessarily matter what direction they go with it, you just want something memorable,” he said. “Hopefully it’s

“When they talk about safety forces, they’re talking about unarmed security, unarmed security at the hospital, and people looking at cameras, things like that,” he said. “We’re not trying to say anything negative about that, but realistically if you have unarmed security, if anything bad ever happens, those people are running away from the problem with the rest of the general public.”

He said these efforts are also likely mirrored by the other universities in the Big Ten and Midwest named on the list.

“I’m sure those other universities are using unarmed security, and I’m sure they’re using cameras.

Ohio State is not unique in that nature,” Laird said.

“But why is the ratio so low when all these other universities’ is much, much higher?”

He added that the disparity is additionally concerning because of OSU’s location in Columbus.

“If you go to Indiana, that’s not a big city,” he said.

“West Lafayette, Purdue, that’s not a big city. This is a big city with big city problems. And a lot of those neighborhoods, unfortunately, are just east and just south of student housing, and some of that bleeds onto the university.”

something that sticks with you for a long time … a moment to remember and look back upon.”

He added that he expected fewer people to be excited for this year’s commencement speech after last year’s speech was given by Obama.

“Last year was such a big name and obviously it’s not a small name by any means, but I don’t think it’s someone who gets as many people excited as bringing in the president,” Teplitsky said.

Matthews first started his weeknight hour-long political analysis show “Hardball” in 1997 and has been at the role ever since, according to the release.

Before becoming a broadcast journalist, Matthews worked for 15 years at various newspapers, and prior to that, worked for 15 years as a speechwriter during former President Jimmy Carter’s term.

He has also written seven best-selling books about politics.

OSU Interim President Joseph Alutto said Matthews was a good choice for commencement speaker.

“On behalf of Ohio State, it is my pleasure to welcome one of the nation’s most experienced political journalists as our spring commencmeent speaker,” Alutto said in a released statement. “A longtime public servant, New York Times best-selling author and television news anchor Chris Matthews will offer a unique perspective on our country’s history and future.”

studentvoice Racist ABC Family show had no place being considered for production CAMPUS Columnist

After “The Secret Life of an American Teenager” and “The Fosters” presented families with pregnant teenagers and lesbian parents, ABC Family attempted to create another CHAHINAZ SEGHIRI groundbreakseghiri.1@osu.edu ing show, this time focusing on Muslims.

“Alice in Arabia” was supposed to be about an unruly teenage girl who is kidnapped by her extended family in Saudi Arabia after the death of her parents. She is then swept into the culture where she must “find a way to return home while surviving life behind the veil,” according to a show description.

According to “Time,” the show was canceled because of its “simplistic view of Muslims and the Arab world.”

The show was initially given the green light but later garnered a negative public reaction, according to “The Guardian.”

After reading the plot for the show, I can only ask myself, “What was ABC Family even thinking?”

A show with so much obvious ignorance in the plot should never have been considered for production.

Furthermore, as if as a Muslim I am not stereotyped enough, now I needed a show to just add the whipped cream on top of the ice cream of ignorance.

Despite its cancellation, ABC Family only decided not to go through with the show because of complaints from Muslim advocacy groups in the United States.

My question in all this, however, is where was the voice from the rest of the world, not just Muslim advocacy groups?

When is it ever OK to initially approve a show that contains enough racism and ignorance to offend

Courtesy of MCT

Alya Kazak, 21, of Bloomfield Hills, Mich., said her decision to wear the hijab, a scarf that identifies her as Muslim, is ‘the most positive decision I have made.’

The hijab has instilled power in me to prove to others that intellect and personality are even more powerful than good looks. a religion consisting of more than 1.6 billion people?

I am not going to lie, ABC Family has some great shows. I thoroughly enjoy watching its movies and even “Pretty Little Liars” (yes, I will admit it), but it’s truly crossed the line to even consider production of “Alice in Arabia.”

One just has to read the plot to realize “Alice in Arabia” is not only racist, but is further enforcing the

stereotypes we Muslims face on a constant basis.

The plot itself just screams obvious. The pure innocent white American girl who will be clad in a veil will be unable to speak, her identity hidden from the world.

Just when we think she will be overtaken by such an oppressive culture (yes, I said culture, not religion) she will rip her veil off and speak her mind, showing the true meaning of liberty and freedom.

Hey guess what! I didn’t need a show to define what liberty and freedom means.

As a Muslim woman born and raised in the United States, the hijab (headscarf) has become a part of my identity.

The hijab has instilled power in me to prove to others that intellect and personality are even more powerful than good looks.

So no, ABC Family, the veil is not oppressive,

and I don’t think we need a television show to just add on the ignorance and assumptions that have been ingrained in the minds of so many Americans.

Although the show was scrapped, the fact that it was considered for production is such a strong reminder that we as Muslims are losing our voices in the light of those who preach ignorance and hate.

From women being seen as oppressed to the constant terrorist angle being thrown at us by the mainstream media, a show like this only makes me question, are we as Muslims truly taken seriously?

As a “Time” opinion article said, “American Muslims have lost control of their narratives both online and in the media.”

My religion is not just in Saudi Arabia as “Alice in Arabia” was implying. The fact that the show was targeting Saudi Arabia only shows how horribly ignorant the writer of the show is about Islam.

Islam is a religion that not only consists of more than 1.6 billion people, but it is also a religion that has spread globally, influencing numerous people in different regions.

A religion that has spread globally and has influenced so many people only makes how Muslims practice Islam throughout the world even more unique and beautiful.

Islam is not about women in veils who must be hidden from the outside world. That itself is a cultural practice dictated by the minds of people who deem it to be a religious ruling.

As a Muslim, I see Islam as my stability and my security in this world. It is my liberation in a world that is filled with so much negativity and ignorance.

It hurts to see my religion face so much mockery by people who only have hateful thoughts about Muslims.

There is no justification for such mockery, and although I am not shocked, I am truly troubled by what is now deemed to be acceptable.

So wake up, Muslims! We need to raise our heads and come out of hiding. We can no longer let our voices be drowned out by the fear being stereotyped.

It is time to put our fear and pride away and show people the true beauty of Islam. Not only will we eliminate these ignorant views, but we will also do ourselves a favor in bringing justice to our religion.

OSU tennis ties NCAA home win streak record, beats Michigan, 6-1 kane anderson Lantern reporter anderson.1995@osu.edu A share of history has been captured by the No. 2 Ohio State men’s tennis team.

With a 6-1 defeat of Michigan Friday, the Buckeyes tied the NCAA all-time home win streak with their 184th consecutive victory.

“It’s been a nerve-wracking experience going through this thing,” coach Ty Tucker said. “Every match has been counted … it’s nice that the guys go down in history.”

The Stanford women’s tennis team originally set the record by going undefeated at home from 1999-2011. The Buckeyes (19-2, 4-0) began their streak during the 2003 season and didn’t let the Wolverines (9-7, 1-1) get in their way of the record book.

The Buckeyes took the first two matches Friday in doubles to give them a quick 1-0 lead.

Redshirt-sophomore Chris Diaz and freshman Herkko Pollanen of OSU defeated Michigan juniors Alex Petrone and Michael Zhu 8-7 (7-2). It was the first time Diaz and Pollanen played together this season, showing poise to dominate the tiebreaker and win the point.

Not long after that, OSU’s senior Peter Kobelt and redshirt-junior Kevin Metka beat Michigan seniors Alex Buzzi and Barrett Franks, 8-6, to give the Buckeyes the advantage heading into singles play.

Redshirt-junior Kevin Metka hits the ball during a match against Michigan March 21 at the Varsity Tennis Center. OSU won, 6-1.

Diaz was off first, again, after beating junior Vlad Stefan 6-0, 6-2. Redshirt-junior Hunter Callahan then finished off Buzzi 6-1, 6-1. Both Diaz and Callahan jumped out to big leads en route to pushing the Buckeyes to a commanding 3-0 lead.

Although the Varsity Tennis Center was filled to capacity and history was on the line, Diaz said he was able to stay calm throughout the match.

“I’d been struggling a little bit so to get another win under my belt felt good,” Diaz said.

“I just try to relax and tell myself to focus and not to think too much … sometimes I get way to into it and just have to remember it’s just a game.”

Kobelt, as he has done multiple times already this season, clinched the match and put the Buckeyes in the record book with a 6-3, 3-6, 6-2 win over Petrone. As the captain of the team and part of 68 of those home wins, Kobelt said sealing the win was something special.

“To get the final point against Michigan at home and to set the record, it’s like a storybook kind of thing,” Kobelt said. “At the end of the day, we’re just trying to get a win and win the Big Ten.” As is custom in Big Ten play, the unfinished matches continued even after the match had already been decided.

Metka and redshirt-freshman Ralf Steinbach both won in three sets to give the Buckeyes six points. Pollanen was the only OSU player to lose, falling in a two-set marathon match to senior Shaun Bernstein 7-6 (8-6), 7-5.

The Buckeyes have the opportunity to break the tie and have the most dominant home win streak in the history of the NCAA next Friday when No. 25 Northwestern comes to town.

“Hopefully we have enough magic in us to win one more home match and kick Stanford out of the equation,” Tucker said.

The match against the Wildcats is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. at the Varsity Tennis Center.

Short-handed Buckeyes pick up 1st ECAC win against Bellarmine brett amadon Lantern reporter amadon.2@osu.edu No leading scorer. No starting goalie. No problem.

Playing without junior midfielder Jesse King and senior goaltender Greg Dutton, the Ohio State men’s lacrosse team snapped a threegame losing streak Friday, defeating the Bellarmine Knights, 10-7.

Getting off to a quick start, junior midfielder David Planning opened the scoring for the Buckeyes, ripping a shot to the off-stick side of senior goaltender Will Haas, who finished the game with eight saves for the Knights.

After freshman attackman/midfielder Matt Taulane scored his first career goal for Bellarmine to tie the game, the Buckeyes went on a three-goal run to take a 4-1 lead late in the second quarter.

However, two Bellarmine goals, the second coming with 22 seconds left in the half, gave the Knights the momentum until OSU freshman midfielder Jake Withers won the ensuing faceoff and capped off the possession with a goal with only two seconds left before the break.

Withers won 15 of 21 faceoffs in the game including picking up a team high 10 ground balls.

OSU coach Nick Myers said Withers has been improving every week, and he did a good job helping OSU control the faceoffs, an area that’s been a question mark at times during the season.

“Jake’s one of those freshmen that has been a work in progress,” Myers said. “To start the season, we knew we had something there.

Give a lot of credit to (assistant) coach (Jamison) Koesterer, our faceoff coach, for really bringing him along and the wings as well. We knew it was going to be a key to the game and I thought Jake did a nice job there tonight.”

Sophomore attackman Carter Brown, who led the Buckeyes with five points, recorded his second and third goals of the night in the third quarter to give the Buckeyes a 7-4 lead going into the final frame.

Bellarmine (4-3, 0-3), , which is located in Louisville, Ky., started the

fourth quarter with two unanswered goals by sophomore midfielder Taylor Stuart and senior midfielder Chad Mitchell, respectively, bringing the score within one.

However, that was as close as the Knights got as OSU used its second three-goal run of the night to put away Bellarmine for good.

Freshman attackman J.T. Blubaugh and junior attackman Reegan Comeault scored a pair of goals spanning a minute apart before junior midfielder Turner Evans scored a man-up goal for the Buckeyes to give them a 10-6 lead.

OSU was 2-3 on its man-up chances in the game.

Evans said the team had to change up its game plan because of the absence of King, but a lot of young players rose to the challenge to help get the win.

“Jesse (King) is obviously a huge part of our offense, so we had to make some adjustments during the week to try and work around having him not play today,” Evans said. “I feel like a lot guys stepped up and contributed today and not having him in the lineup obviously hurt us, but we managed to get the win.”

Bellarmine tacked on a goal in the final minute, but it proved to be too little too late as the Buckeyes held on for the victory.

Brown, who is second for the Buckeyes with nine goals on the season, said it was good to start off conference play with a win, but there are still plenty of games left to be played.

“It feels really good,” Brown said. “It’s kind of a new season right now in the conference. We just got to take it one game at a time and focus on ourselves.”

Freshman goaltender Nick Doyle, who started in place of the injured Dutton, made nine saves in his collegiate debut, a performance that didn’t surprise his coach.

“Doyle, I thought, did what we expect from our goalies,” Myers said.

“He made some big saves, hung in there, did a nice job on the clear and helped us get a big win.”

The Buckeyes are scheduled to be back in action Tuesday as they take on No. 9 Notre Dame at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. Game time is set for 4 p.m.

OSU baseball wins weekend series against Michigan State nick deibel Lantern reporter deibel.30@osu.edu Gusting winds on a cold 32-degree afternoon helped two fired-up freshmen pitchers shut out Michigan State for Ohio State’s first Big Ten series win of the season.

The Buckeyes (15-7, 2-1) won the rubber match Sunday against the Spartans (10-10, 1-2), who were playing as the away team after the series was moved from East Lansing, Mich., to Bill Davis Stadium because of weather conditions.

Freshman pitcher Tanner Tully started the game for OSU, throwing seven scoreless innings and giving up seven hits while striking out four.

The dominant outing brings Tully to 3-0 on the season with a 0.96 ERA. With so much riding on this game, Tully said he kept with the same approach he’s had all season.

“Just keep throwing up in the zone, letting them hit it and let the defense do the work,” Tully said.

Taking the mound in relief of Tully was freshman pitcher Travis Lakins, who tossed 2.0 innings with two hits and four strikeouts, with his last pitch reaching 96 mph.

“It just gives me more confidence in what I can do and I know my teammates are going to make plays behind me. You know I can’t go out there and strike out everybody, today was just a day that I did,” Lakins said.

Senior left-fielder Tim Wetzel said he talked to the team after the win about how special it was for the seniors to win a series against MSU for the first time in their career, thanking the freshmen for leading the way.

“In the huddle I said, ‘Way to pick the seniors

Sophomore infielder Troy Kuhn prepares to hit the ball during a game against Michigan State March 23 at Bill Davis Stadium.

OSU won, 1-0. up and get us a big series win against Michigan State. It’s the first one in my career,’” Wetzel said.

Coach Greg Beals said the low scoring, one-run game made for an exciting final game of the weekend because of the weather.

“It makes everything matter — a wild pitch, a walk, an error, a sacrifice bunt to get the guy over — every little thing comes into play in a one-run game and the fact that we only walked one guy and we didn’t commit any errors is big,” Beals said.

Saturday, the Buckeyes jumped ahead on the

scoreboard in the fourth inning scoring five runs, including a grand slam over the right field wall hit by freshman centerfielder Troy Montgomery. OSU scored again in the seventh inning when junior right-fielder Pat Porter hit an RBI double down the right-field line, giving OSU a 6-2 lead, the eventual final score.

Though the weather made it tough to judge hitting this weekend, Beals said he was satisfied with his team’s offensive performance over the three games.

“Their lefties were tough on our lefties but

overall I felt pretty good. I feel like we’re inching into an offensive approach that I’m comfortable with,” Beals said.

Senior Greg Greve took the mound for OSU Saturday, pitching six innings with two runs on six hits and two strikeouts. In relief of Greve, sophomore pitcher Jake Post threw three innings with one hit, no runs and three strikeouts.

“We received a really good pitching performance today,” Beals said after the game Saturday. “Outside of the one swing, we pitched a shutout. We got six strong innings from Greg Greve and Jake Post was able to come in and give us three more to finish the ballgame so that was just what we needed.”

The Buckeyes started the weekend off against the Spartans with a thriller on Friday night. MSU led 6-4 heading into the ninth inning, until the Buckeyes got runners on base early after sophomore shortstop Craig Nennig walked and Wetzel doubled off the wall in right-center. With runners on second and third for sophomore secondbaseman Troy Kuhn, he smacked a ground-run double to left-center to tie the game at 6-6.

Unable to produce anymore runs, The Buckeyes hoped to stretch the game into extra innings, but MSU hit a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth by Spartan first-baseman Ryan Krill off OSU junior closer Trace Dempsey to give MSU the 7-6 win.

Junior pitcher Ryan Riga started the game for OSU Friday, throwing 6.1 innings, giving up eight hits, five earned runs and five strikeouts.

“We didn’t pitch the ball great tonight, but the story of the game from our standpoint is missed opportunities at the plate,” Beals said after the game Friday. “It’s a tough loss after fighting to get back in the ball game.”

OSU is set to return to action Tuesday at 6:35 p.m. against Marshall at Bill Davis Stadium.

sports Buckeye softball sweeps home opening series over Spartans NICK DEIBEL Lantern reporter deibel.30@osu.edu Before its series against Michigan State, coach Kelly Kovach Schoenly said the softball team’s return to Buckeye Field for its first Big Ten matchup was “a whole new season” for it.

Her players responded to the fresh slate, with Columbus’ first glimpse of Ohio State in 2014 looking a lot more like a fresh team on opening day than a “battle-tested” team 26 games into its season when the series began.

The Buckeyes (15-14, 3-0) completed their sweep of MSU (7-18, 0-3) underneath gray skies and brisk winds to bring their record above .500 for the first time all season.

OSU smacked 15 extra base hits (nine doubles, one triple and five home runs) while recording a .432 batting average. Senior first-baseman Evelyn Carrillo had a .700 batting average including six RBIs and two home runs. Carrillo was hitting so well that Schoenly said she was surprised MSU was pitching to her by the end of the weekend.

“She is a senior and she really wants it. She loves playing here, she always does well at home, so I wish

I could schedule all our games here for her,” Schoenly said of Carrillo. “She really was just tuned in and she hit the center of the ball every time.”

Junior pitcher Olivia O’Reilly was a major contributor to OSU’s success against the Spartans, starting the first and third games and pitching in relief in the second game. She won both starts to bring her record to 5-2 on the season with a 2.58 ERA. Schoenly said O’Reilly is quickly emerging as the team’s No. 1 pitcher.

“She’s doing great. The fact that she can still have it after I put her in the first game and then she pitched seven innings this last game — she’s making the ball move enough that they can’t hit the middle of the ball which is great,” Schoenly said.

O’Reilly pitched a complete game in the last game Saturday, a 4-3 Buckeye victory, giving up six hits, three runs and five strikeouts. O’Reilly said although she pitched well, she wouldn’t have had her outstanding weekend without the support of her team.

“I think that the team overall played so well and honestly I would not have the wins without the defense behind me,” O’Reilly said. “They saved my butt so many times and as a pitcher, you want to make every pitch but sometimes when you don’t, it is good to have your defense behind you and they were behind me 100 percent.”

Freshman pitcher Shelby Hursh winds up a pitch during a game against Michigan State March 22 at Buckeye Field.

OSU won, 11-7.

The first game of Saturday’s doubleheader began with some defensive struggles for the Buckeyes, as two errors in the third inning contributed to a six-run third inning for MSU. Down 7-1 in

the fourth inning, OSU began to mount a comeback with a two-RBI single off of Carrillo’s bat and added another run to bring the score to a 7-4 Spartan lead.

OSU kept chipping away at the Spartans, eventually taking the lead in the sixth and never giving it up, winning the game 11-7. Schoenly said the comeback showed the team’s resiliency this year.

“The game was such an amazing team effort to get back into the game and then take it. It was just really fun to see them fight like that and defend their home turf,” Schoenly said. “You could hear them in the dugout saying ‘They’re not going to beat us at home, we’re not going to let that happen,’ so the fact that they have so much pride in being on our field in front of our fans was so fun to hear and watch.”

In its first game on Friday, OSU jumped out to an early lead in the first inning with four runs on five hits. The Buckeyes did not let up, scoring four more runs in the second inning to give OSU an early 8-0 against the Spartans.

MSU tried to come back with a six-run fifth inning, but that would be it for the Spartans offensively, giving the Buckeyes an eventual 13-6 victory.

You deserve a factual look at . . .

Iran, Nuclear Weapons and the “Interim Agreement” Is this the time to relax—or rather increase— economic sanctions on the Islamic Republic?

Despite evasions, denials and equivocations, it is clear that Iran continues to pursue the holy grail of nuclear weapons. A temporary agreement recently struck between Iran and Western powers does nothing to disable Iran’s nuclear weapons development, yet it does loosen hard-won economic sanctions against the Islamic Republic. In fact, Iranian diplomats brag that the agreement fails to inhibit them in the least and that their nuclear program will not be stopped. Does it really make sense to relax pressure on Iran, or should the U.S. and Western powers line up additional sanctions should Iran fail to discontinue nuclear weapons development?

What are the facts?

The P5 + 1 group of world powers—the U.S., China, Russia, France, Great Britain and Germany— celebrated when Iran recently agreed to a six-month interim agreement calling for the Islamic Republic to suspend enrichment of 20% uranium. In return, the P5 + 1 agreed to allow Iran to access $4.2 billion in previously blocked funds, and the U.S. agreed to apply no new economic sanctions for six months. Yet Iranian foreign minister Mohammed Javad Zarif says, “We did not agree to dismantle anything,” and its president Hassan Rouhani promises Iran will absolutely retain its enrichment capability.

U.S. President Barack Obama has pledged that if Iran fails to abide by the interim agreement or to dismantle its nuclear weapons development, he would seek additional economic sanctions and possibly resort to military action. A bill currently before Congress—the Nuclear Weapons Free Iran Act—would impose just such additional sanctions on Iran if it breaks the interim agreement or does not cease its nuclear weapons program following expiration of this agreement. In other words, the bill formalizes exactly the diplomatic consequences the President has threatened. No wonder the Nuclear Weapons Free Iran Act is currently supported by at least 59 U.S. Senators, a clear majority.

Distressingly, the President has threatened to veto this act if passed by the Senate. The White House fears that the threat of new sanctions—even though they would not go into effect unless Iran fails to comply— could derail current nuclear disarmament talks.

What are the stakes? The primary targets of the Iranian ayatollahs’ fanatical zeal are the U.S. (the “great Satan”) and Israel (the “little Satan”), perceived as being America’s agent in the Middle East. Since Iran now possesses long-range ballistic missiles, the United States, Europe and many Arab nations are in mortal danger of attack by that country. Indeed, as Senate Foreign Relations Committee member Sen. Richard Durbin notes, “If these [current] negotiations fail, there are two grim alternatives—a nuclear Iran, or war, or perhaps both.”

Even short of such a war, a nuclear-armed Iran would be in unquestioned dominance of the Middle East and of its oil supply, the energy life blood of the entire world. It would surely cause intolerable disruption of the U.S. and international economies.

Israel, however, is the most immediate target of Iran’s fury. Iran’s unquenchable hatred of Israel is based on the conviction that “nonbelievers” have no legitimate place in the Middle East. Iran’s leaders have repeatedly threatened Israel with destruction once they come into possession of nuclear weapons.

Israel is such a small country that one or two nuclear weapons strategically dropped on its narrow coastal territory would destroy it. Indeed, the effects of a nuclear attack on Israel are too horrible to consider.

There can be little doubt, for example, that such an attack would turn the entire Middle East into a war zone, leaving wide-spread destruction and a worldwide economic disaster in its wake. Clearly this outcome must be prevented at all cost, and no effort should be spared to keep the hands of the ayatollahs off the nuclear trigger.

What is the solution? Of course, most Americans share the President’s hopes that Iran can be persuaded to set aside its nuclear ambitions—and its vendetta against Israel—through diplomacy and other peaceful means. But one thing is certain: It is crippling Western economic sanctions, backed by the threat of force, that have recently driven Iran to the negotiating table.

Above all, Iran must decommission its nuclear weapons infrastructure. Yet with Iran’s nuclear capability still intact and moving forward and its leaders vigorously asserting that the Islamic Republic will never reduce its 20,000 centrifuges or shut down its Arak heavy-water nuclear reactor or its Fordow enrichment facility, does it make sense to reduce the pressure of economic sanctions now? Sen. Robert Menendez, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee believes it’s a mistake to relax sanctions: “I am convinced that we should only relieve pressure on Iran in return for verifiable concessions that will fundamentally dismantle Iran’s nuclear program.”

In the blink of an eye, a dream can be lost.

With a Big Ten Championship and a bid to the NCAA Tournament on the line, the Ohio State men’s hockey team saw its dreams snatched away by the Wisconsin Badgers Saturday.

OSU coach Steve Rohlik emphasized the thin margin between success and failure after the game.

“Well, it’s that time of year where one team moves on, one team goes home,” Rohlik said in a released statement. “Obviously, unfortunately for us, they got the last shot and scored the big goal there.”

The big goal was off a rebound stuffed home

by Badger senior forward Mark Zengerle after redshirt-freshman forward Morgan Zulinick hit the post as Wisconsin clinched the Big Ten title.

The Buckeyes (18-14-5, 6-10-5) end the firstever Big Ten season as the conference tournament runners up, while the Badgers (24-10-2, 14-6-1) continue on to the national tournament as conference champs.

The Buckeyes scored first, 4:51 into the game when junior forward Ryan Dzingel pushed the puck up the wall before skating in on Badger junior goalie Joel Rumpel and scored his second goal in as many games.

Just 4:05 later, the Buckeyes doubled their advantage.

Dzingel took a shot from high in the slot, and, after freshman forward Nick Schilkey had his rebound saved, junior Nick Oddo was there to score his ninth goal of the season.

An interference penalty on freshman defenseman Drew Brevig gave Wisconsin the first power play of the game, and the Badgers capitalized through a point shot from junior defenseman Jake McCabe with 23 seconds left in the first period.

Neither team had a clear shot in the second period until Wisconsin sophomore forward Nic

Kerdiles suddenly broke in behind the OSU defense and had his attempt stopped by Frey.

OSU sophomore forward Tyler Lundey took a boarding penalty 9:46 into the second, and with 22 seconds left in the power play, Zulinick was first to react to a rebound by Frey to tie the game.

But less than a minute later, the Buckeyes took the lead right back.

Junior forward Max McCormick led a threeon-two break, and waited until the last moment to lay the puck off to junior defenseman Clark Cristofoli who found the net for his first collegiate goal.

The beginning of the third period didn’t bring much excitement, but an incredible 48-second stretch changed all that.

First, it was the Buckeyes on the attack.

Junior forward Tanner Fritz skated into the zone and shook off a defenseman with a shot fake before zipping a drive past the Rumpel’s glove.

The Buckeyes had all the momentum, but it only lasted 20 seconds.

Wisconsin senior forward Jefferson Dahl swept in a rebound and then 28 seconds later, his teammate and fellow senior forward Tyler Barnes connected on a pass in front to erase the Buckeyes’ two-goal lead in the blink of an eye.

OSU senior defenseman Curtis Gedig said the incredible turnaround was “heartbreaking.”

“It was definitely a shock. But, I mean, it’s part of the game. It happens,” Gedig said. “You just got to step back and prepare yourself for the next shifts.”

The score line held for the rest of regulation, meaning the first Big Ten hockey championship was decided in overtime, where Zengerle finished the comeback.

The Buckeyes, in Rohlik’s first season as coach, finish the year with 18 wins, their highest total since 2008-09.

“I’m really proud of our guys in the locker room. They emptied the tanks this weekend. They gave it all they had. That’s all I ask,” Rohlik said.

“It’s a big, big step for our program.”

“We did not agree to dismantle anything.”

Since sanctions brought the Iranians to the table, sanctions are clearly the most powerful, peaceful means at our disposal for convincing the Iranians to abandon hopes of acquiring nuclear weapons. But because the Iranians continue to declare themselves steadfastly committed to nuclear development, it’s time to ratchet up the economic pressure. The Nuclear Weapons Free Iran Act should be passed now. The survival of the world is at stake.

OSU alumnus Adam Helbling wrote ‘Well...I Guess I’m Not Jesus,’ which details his life before and after a major car accident that left him paralyzed from the chest down.

qing dai Lantern reporter dai.133@osu.edu Ohio State alumnus Adam Helbling just published his first book.

However, four years ago Helbling’s waterskiing would have taken vast priority over writing.

His ability to waterski, though, was hindered after a major car accident in 2011, which left him paralyzed from the chest down. His experience is detailed in his memoir “Well...I Guess I Am Not Jesus,” which was published in February.

In 2005, Helbling entered OSU as a Mount Leadership Society scholar with a full scholarship.

“I did a lot of volunteer work and leadership training and immediately got involved in the waterskiing team,” he said. “One of the reasons I came to Ohio State was the waterskiing team.”

Helbling said he did well his freshman year. He lived in a fraternity his second year, which proved detrimental to his college experience.

“I lived with people who hazed me the whole week, I was just absolutely miserable,” Helbling said.

The next quarter he found a townhouse and moved out. It was then that Helbling began to smoke marijuana.

In the summer of 2008, Helbling said his only two passions were smoking marijuana and waterskiing, according to his blog.

He competed in an OSU waterskiing championship that summer, where he met his now-friend Ben Van Treese.

When Helbling showed up at the competition, nobody knew who he was, Van Treese said. “(Helbling) was talking about how good he was at slalom skiing and everything. I was skeptical (because) it was a pretty small community and you heard of most the good people, but I hadn’t heard from him,” Van Treese said.

When Helbling returned to school in the fall, Helbling began to grow marijuana in his closet and through a series of expenditures, became $15,000 in debt.

He ended up in the psychiatric ward believing he was “the second coming of Jesus Christ” in October 2008, spending 2 1/2 there. He then spent 3 1/2 weeks in a partial rehabilitation program to learn how to handle stress. Afterward, he spent three weeks in drug rehab.

When he returned to OSU in 2009, Helbling said he felt like he was a new person. However, he relapsed and began smoking marijuana again.

“As you get farther away from hitting rock bottom, you start to forget about all that you have been through,” Helbling said.

Smoking marijuana did not affect his passion for waterskiing, and he helped OSU’s waterskiing team win the national championship in October 2010.

“It was kind of like I had accomplished everything in college that I could ever dream about,” Helbling said.

Book cover for ‘Well... I Guess I’m Not Jesus,’ which details Adam Helbling’s life before and after a major car accident that left him paralyzed from the chest down.

Three months later was when the car accident happened, which left him paralyzed from the chest down.

For a period of time following the accident, Helbling didn’t think his injuries were real because he said he believed he was Jesus Christ.

“I thought that I was going to walk again on Easter just like how Jesus resurrected from dead,” he said. “But when that day came, all I could do was I can move my toes, that was it.”

He said this was the moment where he realized he was not “the second coming Jesus Christ” and he could be in his wheelchair for the rest of his life.

When he went back to his home, Helbling became depressed and contemplated suicide.

“I thought my life was over, (and) I thought I will never return to Ohio State,” he said.

Helbling clearly remembers his mother’s 60th birthday when they went to Lake Erie to celebrate.

He was sitting in his wheelchair and seeing all of the other people playing in the water.

“I was just thinking about ending it (my life) right then,” Helbling said. “I could just push my joist forward and go off the dock, and kill myself.”

But he didn’t.

The first year following the car accident was for him, he said, and then Dragon came to his life.

Dragon is a voice recognition software program, and it provided Helbling a chance to write on the computer using his voice.

Using this program, Helbling started to write his personal experience on Facebook and found out his life story could change peoples’ perspectives regarding their own lives.

“So I realized that I still had a purpose and the most important thing I still had was my mind,” he said.

While writing on Facebook, he thought about going back to OSU, where he only had five classes left to complete to graduate with a civil engineering degree.

He found a program at OSU called locomotor training, a rehabilitation program which allows therapists to move patients’ legs to simulate walking on the treadmill when patients are suspended above it. Through the training, patients might be able to walk someday.

Helbling was admitted back into Ohio State in Winter Quarter 2012.

He moved back to campus and lived in a space called Creative Living, an independent living space for individuals with severe disabilities.

“This is like a new norm to me that I can’t get myself out of the bed, I need help for a lot of different things, and I lose my independence, which is probably the thing I missed the most, but you learn to adapt to your situation and I can definitely say now that I am happier than I have ever than been,” Helbling said.

When he graduated from OSU in June 2012, Helbling launched a blog, gave about 40 to 50 speeches and began to write his book. In April 2012, he gave his TEDx speech at OSU. “It was just like a new passion replaced water-skiing,” he said.

Some Ohio State student organizations have collaborated to rock for a good cause.

Rock the Cause, a free benefit concert, is designed to support two fronts: the American Cancer Society and Operation Smile, an international charity dedicated to treating children with cleft lip or cleft palate facial deformities.

“People should go to the concert because it’s a great feeling to see live music and even a better feeling doing something good for a good cause,” said Timothy Zhu, the co-founder and president of the student organization Operation Smile Club and a second-year majoring in economics.

Rock The Cause is set to take place at Newport Music Hall March 25 at 8 p.m. The concert is sponsored in part by RHAC, Relay for Life, Musician’s Collective, Arouse, Dollars 4 Change, Operation Smile Club, Music and Entertainment Student Association, The Black Student Association and The Network.

Indie band Smallpools is set to headline with support by alt-rock openers All My Sons and Captain Kidd.

Amanda Siroskey, member of the Benefit Concert Planning Committee and sponsorship director for Relay for Life, said support for the American Cancer Society cause is important.

“It’s important for students to support it because it affects so many peoples’ families, for sure. Cancer affects many people throughout the U.S. and the world. Cancer research can help anyone in the long run and cancer is such a widespread cause of death,” said Siroskey, a fourth-year in strategic communications.

Siroskey said she is hoping more people will become aware of the causes and donate to them.

“It’s going to be a concert for a cause. We’re hoping that since it’s a free concert, people will use the money that they would have paid for a ticket and use it to donate to the actual causes,” Siroskey said.

Students can make cash donations, BuckID donations and credit card donations at the door of the concert. They can also make donations online at Rock The Cause’s website.

Zhu said students should support Operation Smile.

“It’s important to support Operation Smile because every three minutes a child is born with a cleft lip. They are unable to smile and are shunned from society simply because their parents cannot afford the 45 minute surgery. I believe that everyone deserves to smile,” Zhu said.

Zeshawn Qadir, the co-president for Dollars 4 Change and a fifthyear in finance, said there is another purpose for Rock The Cause besides raising funds for charity.

“We’re trying to give (the causes) a significant financial donation and at the same time get students active and involved to help support (the causes) in the future,” Qadir said.

Siroskey said she’s excited for Smallpools to play in the concert.

“I think they’re going to be really good. (Their music) is all really catchy,” Siroskey said.

Arthur Broadstock, vice president of Musicians’ Collective, a guitarist for student-driven band All My Sons and a third-year in biochemistry, said the Musicians’ Collective looked into booking Smallpools for the concert.

“We wanted to capture somebody who was a rising artist. We wanted to go with an alternative rock sound. We wanted to catch someone that was really popular with the students,” Broadstock said.

Musicians’ Collective is an organization dedicated to developing a community of student musicians at OSU. Visit thelantern.com for the rest of this story.

LCD Soundsystem, Built To Spill, Ron Jeremy among albums on Record Store Day wishlist matthew lovett Asst. arts editor lovett.45@osu.edu I remember the first Record Store Day. It was in 2007, and I was right around 15 — an impressionable age for music tastes. I was probably still listening to Coldplay and defending My Chemical Romance, but the concept of a day dedicated to the support of local, mom-and-pop record stores piqued my interest. For those who don’t speak music-geek: RSD serves as an exclusive release date for unreleased, reissued or reworked music, sold solely by independent record stores (you’re not gonna find these at your Target or Best Buy). This year, the special day is April 19.

I doubt I actually purchased anything on that first RSD, but, about eight years later, when the list of releases for the 2014 edition were announced Thursday — 438 to be exact — I immediately made my list of records to nab.

Some people are really dedicated to this biannual tradition (the other RSD is Black Friday), going so far as to camp out in front of a record shop the night before. Because of the devotion of other shoppers, I rarely get all of my list, if even half. Below you’ll find the five records I’ll be trying my darndest to get, either because of a given release’s rarity, hilarity or quality.

the song for themselves in advance of its release; Parquet Courts released the sheet music for the single earlier this month for its guitar part. These Brooklynites seem full of post-punk mastery, as 2012’s “Light Up Gold” indicated, so the addition of “Sunbathing Animal” to anyone’s record library is a no-brainer.

Beethoven (among others) while he plays a piece or two at a piano. Intermittently speaking from his own experience as a classically-trained pianist with some distinctive Jeremy crudeness, I feel releases such as this really speak to RSD’s ubiquity and importance. What other industry can tug the likes of Jeremy?

3. LCD Soundsystem: “The Long Goodbye (LCD Soundsystem Live At Madison Square Garden),” 5 x 12” Vinyl Yeah, yeah we were all sad to see LCD Soundsystem go, but now we can listen to the tremendous goodbye concert again and again! RSD sees the release of “The Long Goodbye,” a recording of LCD Soundsystem’s last show ever, performed at Madison Square Garden in April 2011. Time to relive some great memories and/or reinvoke regret of deciding not to take that 9-hour trip to see LCD say farewell.

4. Various Artists: “The Space Project,” 12” Vinyl and CD

1. Built To Spill: “Ultimate Alternative Wavers” Reissue, 12” Vinyl Built To Spill’s debut is getting the reissue treatment on vinyl for RSD this year. Even though it’s bound to be a prevalent release for the music-nerd holiday, it’ll certainly be the victim of the early bird for those of us who might want to sleep in on our Saturdays. Definitely worth trying to get the first record from this seminal indie rock crew.

The space sounds, so to speak, of Youth Lagoon’s recent “Worms,” weren’t entirely the result of project proprietor Trevor Powers’ own eccentricities; they were actually extracted from recordings made by the Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 space probes. Such is the basis of this 14-song compilation, a collaboration from record labels Lefse and Fat Possum. Artists including Beach House, Mutual Benefit and Spiritualized — all authorities on making music that’s so buoyant you float into the stratosphere — come together on this album with songs made from this outer space source material. Trippy stuff, man.

2. Parquet Courts: “Sunbathing Animal,” 7” Vinyl The follow-up to 2013’s “Tall All The Things That You Broke” EP comes in the form of new single “Sunbathing Animal,” backed with “Pilgrims to Nowhere.” “Sunbathing Animal” isn’t anything new to those who performed

5. Ron Jeremy: “Understanding and Appreciating Classical Music With Ron Jeremy,” 7” Vinyl Tune in to this 7” to hear adult film star (and musicologist?) Ron Jeremy discuss classical greats Bach and
