Why Ohio State shouldn’t divest

OSU requiring vaccinations starting Fall Semester Incoming freshmen will need to have at least 5 vaccinations to attend MICHAEL HUSON Lantern reporter huson.4@osu.edu Incoming first-year students who are not fully vaccinated might feel a slight sting Fall Semester as Ohio State implements a new approach to maintaining student health that changes the university’s vaccination recommendation to a requirement.

Student Health Services will require all new OSU students

attending at least half-time, with at least one on-campus course scheduled, to be fully vaccinated.

The requirement applies only to new students at the Columbus campus and will not affect students enrolled prior to Fall Semester 2015 or students enrolled exclusively in distance learning courses.

Dr. Gladys Gibbs, director of Student Health Services, said the goal is to help ensure OSU student health by preventing disease instead of fighting it. She added that with next year’s freshman class being required to be vaccinated, the university will help ensure that most students will be vaccinated in four years.

“As a health care provider, I’m very excited,” Gibbs said. “We strive to keep our student population as healthy as they can

Wrestling prepares for B1G Tournament at home OSU enters 1st Logan Stieber goes for 4th individual, 1st team title

part of plan to privatize energy

For one final time, the wrestling mats will be rolled out on St. John Arena’s hardwood for redshirt-senior and returning Big Ten Champion Logan Stieber as he looks to lead the Buckeyes to their first Big Ten team title since 1951.

Stieber (21-0), who became Ohio State’s second three-time Big Ten Champion last year, is looking to continue his winning ways by earning his fourth title, coach Tom Ryan said.

“It’s fitting that his chance at it will be at home.

Who could write a better story?” Ryan said.

No OSU wrestler has ever achieved four conference titles, and Ryan said Stieber is in a class by himself at 141 pounds, marked by his No. 1 seed for the conference championships.

“We all love storybook endings. That’s what we want for him as an individual and as someone who is leading this team,” Ryan said. “Hopefully we write this last chapter the way we all have envisioned it.”

Stieber and the Buckeyes are set to take to St. John Arena for the Big Ten Championships, scheduled to run Saturday and Sunday.

Even more important than the individual accolades, Stieber said he wants nothing more than for his team to share a championship.

“Anything can happen, but if we can perform

It takes a lot of money and resources to power a campus as large as Ohio State’s, but one expert said the privatization of energy isn’t all that different than that of other campus services, like parking.

“Energy costs money to produce, to distribute and to maintain,” said Donald Cohen, executive director of In The Public Interest — a national think tank dedicated to issues surrounding government contracting and privatization of public services.

OSU’s energy management project, which began its first phase Feb. 17, aims to privatize the management of OSU’s energy.

The university is seeking a private partner to assume the operation of the university’s utilities, including natural gas, electricity and the heating and cooling of water.

For now, it would cover OSU’s Columbus campus — approximately 450 buildings and 22 million square feet of space, according to the project’s website.

The first phase of the project seeks to “gauge interest from potential partners,” according to the website. The RFQ

“The Big Ten is a crazy tough conference, so to finish off four Big Ten Titles would be pretty great.”

The event itself — because there are 10 teams in the top 25 competing — is a gauntlet.

And the tournament being in Columbus makes it even more special for Stieber and his teammates.

“The Big Ten Championship is a fun event: it’s really tough, but also really exciting,” Stieber said.

“It’s a tough weekend, every round is a challenging match and is often a guy that’s in the top-10 and is an All-American caliber wrestler.”

Johnni DiJulius (23-4), the fourth-seed 133-pounder, said he can’t wait to finally see the full lineup that has been put into the making for quite some time, go out and compete at a high level.

“It’s exciting to get the full lineup back. We’ve battled injuries all year and it’s been rough at

campus Wrestling from 1A times, but that’s what the sport is,” the redshirt-junior said. “This is what we’ve prepared all year for and it’s exciting that we are ready to go at the right time.”

Redshirt-freshman Bo Jordan (16-0) also received a top seed for the tournament, but he said although it’s a nice gesture, a seed isn’t going to win him anything.

“It feels great being the No. 1 seed on paper, but it doesn’t mean much because I still have to go out and wrestle the matches,” Jordan said.

The Buckeyes (13-4, 8-1) are tied for second in the Big Ten. Their only conference defeat came against No. 2 Iowa.

After the loss to the Hawkeyes, OSU ran off nine straight

Abby from 1A “We have 40 unbelievable senators and I cannot stress enough how hard they are working,” Grossman said. “Our tent in the Oval has six or seven people at it almost all the time. People genuinely want to be doing everything they can because they believe in this team. It’s very inspiring.”

Grossman, a third-year in education from Cleveland, has held multiple jobs at USG, including serving as the current organizational outreach director. She is also an active member of the Alpha Phi sorority, Rho chapter, serving as director of formal recruitment.

“We as a team bring a unique perspective to undergraduate students,” Grossman said. “I want to be a math teacher and Waidelich wants to be an engineer. We are in this because we want to make change for the better. We have the institutional knowledge from being in USG, we have accomplished a lot in USG so far and we just want to continue that.”

Waidelich, a third-year in biological engineering from Zionsville, Ind., also held various positions in USG and currently serves as senior director of public relations and is an active member of Kappa Delta sorority, Sigma Kappa chapter.

“We are math and engineering majors, we aren’t here to make political gains after graduation,” Waidelich said. “We are here to make changes while we are here for all OSU students. That’s the importance of this campaign.”

One way Waidelich and Grossman plan to make positive change if elected is improving on student safety.

“Our top priority is to make sure students are safe, and feel comfortable here at OSU,” Grossman said.

The safety initiative consists of a fourpoint plan, Grossman and Waidelich said.

The plan includes mandatory safety training

dual-meet victories before being knocked out of the National Duals by Lehigh despite being favorites. Ryan said he believes that being the favorite can sometimes hurt them as a team and said his team is now in the pack chasing Iowa.

“Being on top sometimes isn’t the best place to be,” Ryan said. “We learn a lot more when we’re down and right now we are on our knees. Teammates felt like they let each other down at times. Now the question is, what do you need to do to correct it?”

The Buckeyes have lost close matches that they were expecting to win, but that hasn’t changed their mindset, Ryan said.

“I feel really good about ourselves,” Ryan said. “Nothing has changed except that we have four losses. We’ve been through a year of adversity, but now there is a sense of getting the job done.”

The Big Ten Tournament is set to begin Saturday at 10 a.m.

for incoming freshmen, enacting a Good Samaritan Law, which would provide legal protection to individuals who give reasonable assistance to others who are incapacitated or injured, increased lighting on Pearl Street and working to lower wait times for the Student Safety Service.

Another way to improve the lives of students is by making OSU more affordable, Waidelich and Grossman said. A plan to partner with an airline in order to get student discounts on airfare is a way of doing that.

“We have so many partners here at OSU, to partner with an airline is not something new,” Grossman said. “It’s been done by a few universities. To get OSU to partner with an airline that has heavy traffic in and out of the Columbus airport seems like a no-brainer.”

Though challenging and hectic at times, Grossman said she has enjoyed her time campaigning thus far.

“The past few days, and the past year really, has been such a humbling experience,” Grossman said. “I know what our team is doing isn’t for me, for Waidelich, or for themselves. It’s for the whole team and what we think we can accomplish. We never make decisions just the two of us, it’s always a team decision.”

If elected, both Grossman and Waidelich said they will stress the importance of their teamwork in overcoming challenges.

“Abby and I are one together,” Waidelich said. “Our team is one together. Having the right team in place, who are passionate about it, and are doing it for the right reasons is what we want, and that is what our team is about.”

There is one other campaign team running in this year’s USG election: Michelle Bennett is running for president with Noel Fisher, who is running for vice president.

USG voting will begin at noon on Monday and conclude at 11:59 p.m. Wednesday. The ballot will be available at usg.osu.edu.

Coach Tom Ryan and the OSU wrestling team are looking to bounce back from a loss to Lehigh at the National Duals.

Michelle from 1A “The biggest advantage we have is experience,” Bennett said.

“Understanding the inner-workings of the university and being involved with University Senate as Noel has been for a few years now makes a difference in how we handle working with the administration, faculty, students and organizations.”

Bennett, a third-year in public affairs, has held several positions at USG and is currently the chief of staff. Bennett, who hails from Cambridge, Ohio, serves as the chair for the Council on Student Affairs and is a member of Alpha Chi Omega sorority, Alpha Omicron chapter.

“We are very excited to be running and we have a great picture for what the organization and university could look like,” Bennett said.

“Our vision and policies are very thorough and we are confident that they are going to better the university.”

Fisher, a third-year in geography and political science from Lawrence, Kan., is an off-campus senator and member of the health and safety committee at USG. He has sat on the Council of Student Affairs the last two years and is actively involved in the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity, Omicron Deutron chapter.

“Michelle and I are involved in very different areas of USG,” Fisher said. “Michelle is the chief of staff and deals a lot with senior staff. My role in the senate is a separate branch entirely, where I deal a lot with the legislative aspects. We’ve made a lot of great pushes and strides in the senate this past year and we just need to continue working and pressing forward.”

A major issue that Bennett and Fisher think needs to be addressed by the university is affordability.

“Something that is really important to me is affordability of education at OSU,” Bennett said.

“Part of our plan is to take a more holistic approach to lower the cost. We would like to do that by looking at specific fees students are charged.

Looking closely at these fees to ensure they are benefiting students is important.”

Fisher’s focus on affordability is to ensure that OSU remains affordable not only for Ohio residents, but everyone globally.

“I am an out-of-state student, so I know about all of the extra costs there,” Fisher said.

“The last few years, Ohio residents have been lucky to have a tuition cap, however out-of-state and international students are kind of shouldering the brunt of that. Our tuition keeps rising and we want to work hard at getting caps for that as well.”

Also high on Bennett and Fisher’s priority list if elected is safety. They specifically plan to target the long wait times for rides from Student Safety Service.

“We want to create an Uber-model ride-share program so that students are hired, we have more drivers, and after a background check, (they) can use their own cars,” Fisher said. “We want people to just be able to open an app, ask for a driver and have someone contact you within five minutes.”

With so many goals, Bennett and Fisher said they cannot do it alone.

“We have a wonderful team backing us, and we wouldn’t be able to do half of what we’re doing without them,” Bennett said. “Everyone on our slate has a very unique experience here at OSU and I think they will be a voice for all students.”

Knowing the issues and knowing what they are voting for is crucial for voters, Fisher said.

“We encourage everyone to go and research the actual issues before voting,” Fisher said. “We really want students to know what they are voting for first and foremost.”

There is one other campaign team running in this year’s USG election: Abby Grossman is running for president with Abby Waidelich, who is running for vice president.

USG voting will begin at noon on Monday and conclude at 11:59 p.m. Wednesday. The ballot will be available at usg.osu.edu.

A hold will be placed on the accounts of students who fail to comply with each of the components’ vaccination requirements, according to the Student Health website.

Health Services website.

Gibbs said it is too early to estimate how many students will require vaccinations through OSU, but said she is confident the Student Health Services can handle the demand. She said she expects the majority of new students to already be fully vaccinated because of the Ohio K-12 immunization requirements.

Martin said that, from a public health perspective, “vaccines are always the best buy.”

“It’s a relatively small investment to reduce susceptible individuals in a population,” Martin said. “Rather than have to deal with the consequences of serious and life-threatening infections, this is the opportunity, I think, to take a cohort of our OSU students and be certain, as best we can, that they will be protected, as will their neighbors.”

Ryan Robey, a fifth-year in history, said he thinks a vaccination requirement would help keep first-year students healthy, and, in turn, benefit the health of the rest of the student population.

be vaccinated,” he said. “Most first-year students live in dorms, and they’re going to come in close contact with other students on campus, at social gatherings and at places to eat.”

Jessica Hornish, a third-year in biology, said she thinks the requirement is a good approach to help ensure student health at OSU and help promote immunity on campus.

“From a personal standpoint, I’d feel safer,” she said.

“Especially with all the sicknesses going around, I’d feel safer going to a school where the majority, if not all people, were vaccinated.”

Although Hornish views the requirements as a positive, she said she could see how some students might be apprehensive about the change.

Vaccination exemptions will be available to students with medical conditions that prohibit them from receiving one or more vaccination requirement. Students also are exempt if they show good cause, or object based on religious beliefs or philosophical or moral convictions.

The process of transforming vaccination recommendations into requirements began last year with an executive advisory committee, said Martin, who served as co-chair. He added that OSU moved forward with input from the CDC, the Ohio Department of Health, Columbus Public Health and experts in infectious disease and epidemiology at Wexner Medical Center.

Central Ohio experienced a mumps outbreak in 2014, with 255 cases at OSU. The 484 cases of mumps reported in the central Ohio outbreak surpassed the 438 reported cases in the U.S. in 2013.

Gibbs said the current vaccination practices of other universities, including some in the Big Ten, were surveyed during the process, though final decisions were based on what was expected to be best for OSU students specifically.

“There’s been a long track record at college campuses — students coming together, living in close proximity and being at risk — so I think most universities and colleges reconsider their current practices on a regular basis,” Martin said.

Energy from 1A — request for qualifications — document is now available for vendors (and those interested in reading it) online and will stay open until early-to-mid-April, said OSU spokesman Gary Lewis in an email.

Lewis said the university has been “pleased by the interest so far by potential partners” but declined to comment as to how many submissions it has received at this point.

The university will share details once the RFQ deadline has passed, but doing so now would be “premature,” Lewis said.

“Potential partners have been told they can submit responses at any point up to the deadline, and sharing details before then would not shed any helpful light on the process,” Lewis said.

Cohen said, however, that privatization of services comes with a price.

“Privatization costs more money,” he said, citing executive salaries, lobbyists and the need for a rate of return as examples of additional costs when something is privatized.

These costs are money lost, Cohen said, adding “all of those dollars go away, as opposed to into the system, to either keep the costs down or to improve the system.”

But this energy project isn’t the first time OSU has sought to enter into private contracts.

In 2012, OSU privatized its parking when the university signed a 50-year, $483 million contract with Australian investment firm QIC Global Infrastructure to create CampusParc. OSU also holds private contracts with Coca-Cola Co., Nike Inc. and Huntington Bank, along with other companies.

According to the project website, the energy management project seeks to “reduce energy use, secure the best rates, provide great service and support research.”

As far as energy conversation goes, Cohen said the ideas might be worth the university’s money, but the management is not.

“In terms of energy efficiency, it may very well be that some private company has ideas on how to save money on energy, and if that’s the case, let’s hire them to give us the ideas, but there’s no need to hire them to run it,” Cohen said.

Smoke rises from McCracken Power Plant on Feb. 18.

If the companies can make money doing it, Cohen questioned why the university wouldn’t want to do it themselves to “either generate the income or, more importantly, generate the savings to keep college, university expenses down.”

Similarly, the University of Oklahoma entered into a 50-year contract for the management of its energy in 2010. The university is estimated to save $38 million to $66 million during the course of the contract.

The duration of OSU’s contract is unknown at this time, and Lewis said it will be discussed upon completion of the RFQ deadline.

Cohen said he thinks Oklahoma’s 50-year contract is “a long time to lock yourselves into a contractual obligation to keep a company profitable,” though.

“Fifty years is a long time. Thirty-five years is a long time. Things could change; you want flexibility,” he said.

As for whether more universities will follow suit and privatize their energy down the line, Cohen is unsure but said, “if there’s a market — if there’s money to be made — then there are companies that are going to be promoting these ideas, and they often promote them by saying ‘we’re going to be doing things better and more efficiently and more green and save money’ … but again, the devil is in the details. If they can make money, why can’t (the universities)?”

Men’s basketball tops PSU; Matta ties OSU record JAMES GREGA, JR. Asst. sports editor grega.9@osu.edu Playing on the road has not been a strong suit for the Ohio State men’s basketball team this season.

But not only did the Buckeyes win their third straight game Wednesday night, they also earned a place in the record books for their coach.

Thad Matta earned his 297th OSU win as the Buckeyes (22-8, 11-6) topped the Penn State Nittany Lions (15-15, 3-14) for just their fourth road victory of the season, 77-67, in State College, Pa.

After the win, Matta is tied for the most all-time wins as an OSU men’s basketball coach, along with Fred Taylor, who coached the Buckeyes from 1959-76.

The game started out looking as though the Buckeyes would coast as they jumped out to a 15-8 lead, led by eight early points from freshman forward Jae’Sean Tate.

However, the Nittany Lions, who were celebrating senior day, went on a 21-5 run to open a nine-point lead on the Buckeyes.

OSU fought back, ending the first half on a 9-1 run to head to the locker room down, 30-29.

The game of runs continued after the break as Penn State come out of the second half gate swinging, going on an 8-0 run to extend its lead to nine.

Once again, the Buckeyes answered. An 11-0 run gave OSU a 40-38 lead with 14:34 to play, capped by a deep 3-pointer from freshman guard D’Angelo Russell.

After four straight points by Penn State, Russell buried two more 3-pointers on backto-back possessions to push the Buckeye lead to 46-42.

A three-point play by Russell with 11:11 to play capped a 21-4 run in just over six minutes for the Buckeyes, with 12 of those points coming from Russell.

Russell finished with a game-high 28 points on the night.

Freshman guard Kelsey Mitchell (3) has led the charge for OSU this season with 24.5 points per game. She also averages 4.3 rebounds per game, helping the Buckeyes earn a No. 3 seed for the Big Ten Tournament.

Bucks to keep on running JACKIE HOBSON Lantern reporter hobson.66@osu.edu If you cannot run for 40 minutes then, simply put, you have something wrong with you. At least that’s what Kevin McGuff thinks.

“They are 18-to-22-year-old people,” the Ohio State women’s basketball coach said. “Sometimes I think it can be overdrawn, the fact that people get tired and worn out.”

Because of many different circumstances ranging from player suspensions to injuries, the Buckeyes have just seven roster members who consistently dress for every game. That puts all the players in a situation where they might be playing the entire game on any given night.

“I think everybody gets pretty tired,” junior guard Ameryst Alston said. “But we are all young and should be able to run so it just comes down to being mentally tough.”

With a limited bench on the OSU sideline, some might think McGuff would try to slow teams down in order to cater to his limited number of subs.

However, McGuff said his intentions are quite the opposite.

“We have proven that even with a short bench, we can play fast and we can play on consecutive days,” he said. “That doesn’t seem to bother us like it does other people.”

Freshman guard Kelsey Mitchell, who averages 36.9 minutes per game, said she loves the fast-paced style of basketball that the Buckeyes have become accustomed to playing.

“The fast-paced game is what I have been raised on so I’m glad I get to stick with it,” Mitchell said. “When I came in, coach McGuff said, ‘We are going to play fast and we are going to do whatever we need to do to play fast.’”

The pace at which the Buckeyes play can frustrate the opposition on the defensive end as teams have trouble keeping up.

“We love the pace,” Alston said. “It’s fun, it’s a lot harder to guard and we try to frustrate teams defensively.”

However, the regular season allows teams to rest between games, as contests do not typically fall on consecutive days.

The Big Ten Tournament opens this week and as the third seed, OSU has a first and second-round bye.

Playing their first game on Friday night will propose a new challenge for the Buckeyes: If all goes according to plan, OSU will have seven players playing at a fast pace for three consecutive days.

McGuff and company are not the least bit worried about becoming fatigued, he said. Rather, they believe that playing like this all season will prove to be an advantage in the end.

“We have a team that is faster and I think more built to win

Five games might not seem like a lot during a baseball season, but when a team suffers four losses with just one win, it can feel like a heavy load.

After going 1-4 in its past five games, the Ohio State’s baseball team is back in Columbus, practicing indoors at Woody Hayes Athletic Center because of cold temperatures.

The Buckeyes (5-4) had previously lost two games to Florida Atlantic during their visit to Florida from Feb. 20-22, and then lost two more game on Saturday, before finally pulling out a win against the University of Alabama-Birmingham on Sunday. OSU is now set to take on Western Kentucky on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in Bowling Green, Ky. Coach Greg Beals said the team realizes how important the weekend is before the Buckeyes are set to host their first home series.

“This will be our third road series. We played two tough ones against very good opponents,” Beals said. “I think it’s important before we go into conference play that we can go on the road and prove that we can win a series on the road.”

Beals said he is confident in the team and isn’t changing the practice routine much this week, even after the Buckeyes’ 1-4 stretch.

“We just try to really emphasize fundamentals,” he said. “The pitching and the hitting are the big things. The guys are going to work on that on their own. From a coach standpoint, I try to put together a practice schedule that’s going to make sure that we are touching on the little things as well.”

The Buckeyes are confident that it’s not their game they need to change in order to earn more wins, senior infielder Nick Sergakis said.

“It’s not really what we have to do differently, it’s what we have to improve on and it’s just our mindset,” Sergakis said. “We’ve got to keep believing that we are the same team that we went into the season as.

“We have the talent, it’s just a matter of when it shows.”

First pitch in Bowling Green is scheduled for 4 p.m. on Friday, 3 p.m. on Saturday and 2 p.m. on Sunday.

Women’s lax trio named to Tewaaraton Award watch list MOLLY TAVOLETTI Lantern reporter tavoletti.1@osu.edu

Katie Chase wasn’t even 10 years old when she first fell in love with lacrosse.

But with girls’ lacrosse hardly rampant in Woodbine, Md., the first lacrosse stick she picked up was one made for boys.

And while she now plays for the Ohio State women’s lacrosse team, she and two other teammates are on a list with the boys. Chase, now a Buckeye senior attackman, along with fellow senior attackman Jackie Cifarelli and senior goalie Tori DeScenza, each made the Tewaaraton Award watch list on Feb. 26., solidifying the No. 14 ranking the OSU team currently holds. And while the prestigious lacrosse award honors solely outstanding players, the teammates collectively agree the benefits go far beyond individual recognition.

“It’s a huge accomplishment for Ohio State women’s lacrosse,” Chase said. “Now we’re a team ranked in the top 10, as this huge powerhouse lacrosse school. Before, no one knew who Ohio State was or what it meant for women’s lacrosse. It’s putting Ohio State out there for people to know.”

Chase, who scored twice during the team’s 15-2 victory over Niagara on Sunday, now ranks first in the Big Ten and third in the NCAA with 21 goals this season. While she has tallied at least two goals in all but one game this season, the senior credited her consistency to the entire team.

“They push me harder than any team I’ll ever play,”

Now seniors at OSU, attackman Jackie Cifarelli (left), attackman Katie Chase (11) and goalie Tori DeScenza (2) were all named to the Tewaaraton Award watch list.

Chase said. “I want to help us just keep doing what we’re doing. We want to make an impact this year.”

Each year, the Tewaaraton Award recognizes the top male and female college lacrosse players in the nation, and while all three Buckeye watch list members expressed a humble appreciation for the individual recognition, they each find a greater reward in sharing it with their fellow Buckeyes.

“It’s a list of 50 of the best players in the country, so it’s definitely a great accomplishment,” Cifarelli said. “It’s an honor, but it’s even better than I can be on that list with two of my teammates.”

The Long Island native fell in love with the sport at age 7, and more than 15 years later, Cifarelli earned her spot on that list. She holds the top spot for assists in both the Big Ten and the NCAA, with 21 this season and 146 overall, an OSU record.

Twenty-nine points on the year put Cifarelli first in the Big Ten and third in the NCAA, and though her own numerous accomplishments on the field speak for themselves, she also praised her watch-list counterparts.

“I couldn’t speak any higher of Katie and Tori,” Cifarelli said. “Katie is an amazing attack, she always knows when to go to goal, her goals are unbelievable.

sports Basketball from 5A Tate, who got off to a quick start for OSU, finished with 13 points to go along with five rebounds.

Senior guard Shannon Scott led the Buckeyes in assists with seven while adding another seven boards to complement his 13 points.

Penn State senior guard D.J. Newbill and senior forward Ross Travis combined for 21 of the Nittany Lions’ first 30 points.

The win is Matta’s 399th triumph overall as he spent time as a head coach at his alma mater, Butler University, and Xavier University before joining the Buckeyes.

Matta is in his 11th year as the head man in Columbus and has won at least 20 games every season since taking over.

The Buckeyes are set to conclude their regular season at home on senior day Sunday against No. 6 Wisconsin.

Tip is set for 4:30.

Women’s basketball coach Kevin McGuff is set to coach the Buckeyes in the Big Ten Tournament for the 2nd time in as many seasons since he arrived at OSU. His team lost to Iowa, 77-73, in the semifinals in 2014.

Bucks from 5A consecutive days in a row,” McGuff said. “It was great for us to get the double bye. It gives us a chance get a little bit of rest and hopefully that will pay dividends as we try to play three days in a row.”

With the amount of improvement the young team has shown, already adding four more wins than last season with tournament play still ahead, the Buckeyes are aware that their shot at a Big Ten title is greater now than at the beginning of the season.

“As a team that is something I am most proud of, we have made significant progress,” McGuff said. “If you watched us in the first week of the season verse now, we are a completely different team.”

And Tori’s been holding it back in the net for the past three years.”

DeScenza and Chase were named to the Tewaaraton watch list for the first time, while Cifarelli was on the list in 2014. With 45 saves on the season, DeScenza leads the Big Ten, but acknowledges the crucial role the team’s defense plays in her work.

“It’s a huge honor to be even thought of, but all of it comes back to the team,” DeScenza said. “It

McGuff said development is special for this OSU team in particular.

“A lot of teams don’t improve like that and that is a real credit to our kids and their interest in having a special season and growing as individual players,” he said.

The growth has put a Big Ten Championship and an NCAA Tournament berth on the Buckeyes’ radar.

“I think we have a great chance at going far,” Alston said. “Coming into this year, we had a little chip on our shoulder because everyone didn’t necessarily believe in us but we have found ourselves and it’s going to be fun.”

The Buckeyes are set to travel to Hoffman Estates, Ill., on Thursday with their first game of the tournament scheduled for Friday at 9:30 p.m.

On May 7, five men’s and women’s finalists will be announced, each invited to attend the Tewaaraton Award Ceremony in Washington, D.C., on May 28.

For now, Chase, Cifarelli, DeScenza and the rest of the Buckeyes are set to continue their journey through the regular season. Next up, the Buckeyes are scheduled to travel to Pittsburgh to take on Duquesne on Sunday at 1 p.m.

opinion Ohio State should invest in two-ply toilet paper ALAINA BARTEL Lantern reporter bartel.21@osu.edu I don’t like to express my opinion on most topics.

One-ply toilet paper is another story.

In the restrooms on campus lies the enemy: A material thinner than paper, one that breaks when you try to tear off a sheet of it.

In this situation, I often feel like Oliver Twist, constantly asking for more, more please. But I do not want more one-ply.

Venturing into the restrooms on campus makes me reminisce of old times, times when I lived at my parents’ house and they provided Charmin Ultra Soft. I miss the endless supply of the soft and durable bath tissue my dad kept stocked away.

When I’m home, I often steal packages of it for my

own consumption, mostly because I don’t have the funds to indulge in such a commodity. When I visit family and friends, I admire their supplies.

This should not be the case. With in-state tuition being about $10,000 for tuition, you’d think some of this would be put toward soft bath tissue — some that provides an enjoyable restroom experience instead of a dreadful one.

For example, a 20-count of Scott one-ply bath tissue from Walmart costs $12.97, whereas a 24-count of Angel Soft bath tissue is $5.97. At those prices, 48 rolls of Angel Soft could be purchased for every 20-count of Scott one-ply. Although Angel Soft is not the best, it would suffice compared with what is currently being stocked in campus bathrooms, and it might even be half the price.

There are more than 58,000 students who attend Ohio State, and I cannot be the only one who holds an opinion on the subject. I say down with one-ply. Let’s invest in comfort.

Vote no on proposal to end ties with companies that do business with Israel Letter to the editor: This year during the Undergraduate Student Government elections, students are being asked to express their opinion on whether the Ohio State University should have financial ties with companies that do business with the nation of Israel.

The two authors of this letter have very different backgrounds. One of us is Christian, the other is Jewish. One of us is a Republican, the other is a Democrat. One of us grew up in a small town in Southeast Ohio, and the other grew up in Cincinnati.

But we do have some things in common: We both had the privilege to serve as the USG president during our years as OSU students, we both bleed Scarlet and Gray and we both believe that this proposal is bad for Ohio State.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is incredibly complex, and OSU provides a wonderful setting to study and debate the conflict in an intellectually honest manner.

Unfortunately, this ballot proposal does just the opposite. It is one-sided propaganda written by an outside national group who systemically spreads its extreme views from campus to campus in a similar fashion.

We know that the Buckeye community is wise enough to see past this.

Many people come to OSU because of its reputation for diversity and inclusion. It is a university where people of all different

Caterpillar Inc., which does business with Israel, often has equipment around OSU’s campus. Here, machines are shown in China. backgrounds are able to work together. The State of Israel, which contains holy sites for Christians, Jews and Muslims alike, embodies this same spirit of diversity and inclusion. Discriminatory tactics like this ballot proposal only serve to widen the gap between the two groups. Instead, we should be working toward bringing both sides together in the spirit of a peaceful resolution to the conflict.

Additionally, many of the companies with which this ballot initiative asks the university to end its relationship are companies that invest in our students and provide jobs to our alumni. Boeing and GE Aviation are examples of companies that could be harmed. Boeing supports approximately 397,000 jobs in Ohio and contributes more than $2.5 million to Ohio charities. GE Aviation has a tremendous partnership with

our College of Engineering. Currently, the company has 40 paid student researchers from OSU . It is the top intern employer in the College of Engineering and the secondlargest employer of College of Engineering alumni . These are strong American companies that invest in our state, our university, our students and our alumni. Why on earth would we want to stop investing in them?

There’s no doubt that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is tragic. Far too many lives have been lost. However, this ballot initiative is not about religion or politics. Instead, it’s about the core values of our Buckeye community. No matter your viewpoint on hot-button issues, we hope you can agree that our community values diversity and intellectual curiosity and rejects intolerance and propaganda. We both hope and believe that the research and teaching that takes place every day at OSU will one day contribute to a lasting peace in the Middle East. In the meantime, we hope that students will come together and vote NO on this ballot initiative, just as the two of us have come together to oppose it.

Students arouse creativity in campus radio Nina Budeiri Lantern reporter budeiri.1@osu.edu Ben McConnell remembers the very moment someone on the Oval asked him, “Dude, do you want to be a DJ?” Little did he know, that moment would lead to his becoming the president of the Amateur Radio Organization for Undergraduate Student Entertainment, leading and encouraging dozens of students to express themselves through their own live radio sessions.

The first show deejayed by McConnell, a third-year in finance, was titled “Hypnotic Kung Fu Power Hour” and featured a mixture of punk and East Coast Rap. “I just remember being really excited to be able to do something like that at Ohio State,” McConnell said.

AROUSE began at Ohio State in 2011, and the organization now has nearly 40 disc jockeys and a stream of shows that are webcast live nearly every day from a small loft, equipped with just a computer and two microphones, above the countercultural Rendezvous Hair Salon on High Street, north of Hudson Street.

Adam DeGuire, a third-year in new media and technology and AROUSE’s technical director, said the station only had six DJs when he got involved in 2012 and it has blossomed into a club that fosters creativity.

“It’s a perfect place for free-form radio I would say because it’s the kind of atmosphere where anything goes and so it encourages our DJS to do interesting things,” he said.

Although the club doesn’t have an on-campus recording spot, group members are unfazed.

“I remember my first time going up to the studio and having to go up these spiral stairs into a space that was nothing like I expected … It may not be ideal, but we make it a fun place,” said AROUSE member Courtesy of AROUSE

Ensemble of hundreds to perform Verdi’s ‘Requiem’ hailey Stangebye Lantern reporter stangebye.1@osu.edu Verdi’s famous funeral mass will come to life when five Ohio State music ensembles come together to perform “Requiem” this Sunday at Mershon Auditorium. “‘Requiem’ is full of fire and beauty,” said Kristina Caswell-MacMullen, conductor of Women’s Glee Club and the Symphonic Choir.

Those groups will be accompanied by the Symphony Orchestra, Chorale, and Men’s Glee Club.

“One moment, we’re experiencing tour de force dramatic presentation, and then in the next movement, it might be much more introspective and much more pious as this composer weds music and text to help us understand what happens at death’s doorstep,” said Robert Ward, director of chorale activities at Ohio State who conducts the Men’s Glee Club.

Ward described the piece as walking the line between a sacred work and a dramatic opera with a sacred theme.

For Ryan Jenkins, a fourth-year in music, the opportunity to perform Verdi’s Requiem is a rare opportunity.

“It’s definitely something that I’ll remember for a long time. Ohio State has been very good at giving those music majors and people in the ensembles great opportunities to sing major works. A piece like Verdi — you’re not gonna be able to sing that everywhere, and with the caliber of people that we’re singing with,” Jenkins said.

Coutesy of Tamara Morris

The OSU School of Music’s production of Mozart’s ‘Requiem’ in 2013. The school does a major chorale production every other year.

Elena Maietta, a member of Symphonic Choir pursuing a doctorate in choral conducting, said that ‘Requiem’ is intended to be performed continuously.

“It’s really designed on a massive scale …

You not only need a large number of singers, but they are singing with a nearly operatic tone,” said Maietta.

Ward said there are 167 singers, four vocal soloists and about 65 orchestra players involved in the performance.

“It’s gonna be a treat just to be able to sing with (the soloists) and sing behind them,” Jenkins said.

And that “treat” isn’t reserved for music majors, as the performance will pool the talent from various departments around campus.

“This is a School of Music production, but the people on the stage represent virtually every academic discipline from across the campus and it is a major statement that, even if you’re not a music major, music and the arts

in general can have a place in your life,” Ward said.

The performance begins at 3 p.m. in Mershon Auditorium and tickets are $20 for the general public, and $10 for senior citizens, children, the Alumni Association, faculty, staff and students.

The doors open at 1:30 p.m. and at 2:30 p.m James Naumann, a doctoral candidate in musicology, will give a pre-concert talk about the work.

Thursday March 5, 2015

“The Jungle Book” is probably best known to contemporary audiences for the musical Disney version, but Short North theater company CATCO is presenting its own adaptation of “The Jungle Book” beginning this weekend.

The play, based on Rudyard Kipling’s 1894 book, features a cast of children and adults alike. Audiences can expect an immersive experience, said director Joe Bishara.

“The audience is on three sides of the actors. It’s really up close and personal,” Bishara said. “It’s trying to bring a great piece of literature to life on the stage.”

CATCO focuses most of its productions

toward literature, and aims to spark imagination and creativity with its performances, Bishara said.

Andrew Protopapas, who plays Mowgli, said the show is a coming-of-age story. This is emphasized with a child actor playing young Mowgli for the beginning portion of the show.

“Through the events of the play, (Mowgli) gets his eyes opened and he understands,” Protopapas said. “As time progresses, he reaches a point where he’s grown and … he has to learn how to take his place with man instead of taking his place with the animals.”

Bishara said the adaptation will not be a “bear necessities” type of production but rather, a love letter to Rudyard Kipling’s story.

Protopapas also said the depth and even

AROUSE Radio from 1B David Defer, a second-year in environment, economy, development and sustainability.

AROUSE is not a well-known organization around campus, with less than 20 listeners per show. McConnell said, but he added that he couldn’t care less.

“We used to worry a lot about the student population knowing about us, but now we’re to the point where we’re not doing this for anyone else,” he said. “Our purpose is to express ourselves and have fun … Once people stop having fun, there is no point in continuing.”

McConnell has also decided against advertising AROUSE around campus, hoping that listeners will be people who are genuinely

interested in listening to student voices and will find out about it on their own.

Alex Mizarek, a second-year in English, AROUSE member and co-host with Defer of the show “Fireside Chats,” shares the sentiment that producing his weekly show isn’t about showing it off to the world. “Fireside Chats” creates a new playlist every week of songs based on classic literature novels.

Mizarek breaks down the themes and conflicts that run through books like “To Kill a Mockingbird” and finds music that mirror them.

“We probably have about eight to 10 regular listeners, and most of them are friends and family. But we’re really just doing it for ourselves,” he said.

AROUSE’s mission statement, according to

its website, is “to retain freedom of expression as a necessary function of quality entertainment, and maintain a respectful metadiscourse within an increasingly polarized world.”

“It’s not as complicated as it sounds,” McConnell said. “The goal I try to share with the members is to give an abstract perspective without attacking other opinions.”

With this goal in mind, McConnell gives his DJs complete freedom for their shows.

“I just want this group to be able to project a voice that is not influenced by a boss or an organization. I want them to have complete freedom to show, because who am I to tell them what they’re going for?” he said.

Walter Haupt, a third-year in communication, and Ryan Piotrowski, a third-year in welding engineering, deejay their show ‘No Smoking in the Laboratory’ March 3.

Jungle Book from 1B intensity found in this show gives it a different element from the Disney version.

“There is some life and death sequences attributed to the story sequence,” Bishara said. “It’s something you should see.”

At the same time, by incorporating children into the production, the show is different from a full adult cast, which is what most performances use.

“With all adult performers, it was a bit intense,” Bishara said. “I was really fascinated by having children cast in the roles.”

Adapting works like “The Jungle Book” is the job of playwright Steven Anderson. Anderson acts as producing director at CATCO in addition to writing many of the company’s plays.

“This is one of (Anderson’s) original works and it’s a great script,” Protopapas said. “Watching these lines on paper and words become so dense and alive onstage (has) been so fun and inspiring to watch.”

Although seemingly aimed at children, Protopapas said there’s something for everyone to enjoy and audiences can expect a performance full of emotion and life lessons.

“It is such a fascinating script and I get the biggest smile during certain parts of the show because I just think they’re so cool,” he said.

“You get the idea that this (story) has been passed down through generations.”

“The Jungle Book” runs this weekend and next at Studio Two at the Riffe Center, located at 77 S. High St. Tickets are $10 for kids, and $20 for adults. Friday shows start at 7:30 p.m. with Saturday and Sunday shows at 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m.
