thelantern Pretty painting, but ugly fight LEAH WYNALEK Copy Chief wynalek.2@osu.edu President E. Gordon Gee participated in an entertaining arm-wrestling stunt last month over a painting that years ago provoked an acrimonious battle between Ohio State and a Columbus art dealer.

The oil painting, “Children at the Beach,” by Columbus artist Alice Schille, was a gift from the freshman class of 1911. Until 1997, the painting hung in the old Ohio Union, where Columbus art dealer Lynda Dickson saw it.

In June 1999, OSU sold the painting to Dickson for $50,000 based on a 13-year-old appraisal that noted that the piece was a gift from the freshman class of 1911.

Dickson, now 73, was a member of the President’s Club, which honors OSU donors who give gifts of $2,500 or more.

Dickson’s letter from the President’s Club states that she donated $4,000 to the university before her acceptance to the club in October 1998. Dickson

donated one print from her art collection to Gee and nine to Dodd Hall, where she was treated for a brain injury in 1997.

When Dickson saw Schille’s “Children at the Beach” at the previous Ohio Union, it was hanging in a “poorly lit area,” was unclean and had surface flaws, including a minor tear, Dickson said. Despite its condition, she said she “just loved the children” in the painting.

Dickson made a request to buy the painting at the Finance Office of the Ohio Union. In August 1997, associate director of the Ohio Union, Franklin Gencur, wrote to Dickson asking if she was still interested in purchasing the painting.

Dickson sent OSU a $1,000 check as a down payment and asked that the work be appraised. She later received a copy of an appraisal of $30,000 from OSU. The document was from 1986.

Dickson made an offer of $50,000 for the painting. The sale was arranged over the next two years and in June 1999, OSU finally sold it to Dickson.

In August 1999, Dickson purchased the copyrights to the painting from Schille’s family for $5,000.

Go to thelantern.com to read the documents related to this story She placed ads for prints of the painting in the New York Times. The ads stated that the painting was previously owned by OSU. “A number of OSU alumni saw that ad … and were absolutely livid that OSU had sold the painting.

And because they were angry, I was supposed to just give it back,” Dickson said.

Legal Affairs offered to buy the painting back for the price she bought it for, but she refused, she said.

In a Columbus Dispatch story from 2000 about the sale of the painting, OSU spokesman David Ferguson said, “No one knew it was a class gift. If people would have been aware it was a class gift, no one would have sold the darn thing.”

Lead oboist gives Gee personal recital MOLLY GRAY Graphics Editor gray.557@osu.edu

Festival of the Finest

Ohio Staters, Inc. will host the second annual Festival of the Finest from noon to 5 p.m. Friday at the Ohio Union.

When Stephanie Tobin was younger, she was always told to find what she loved and then make that her career. For Tobin, that thing was the oboe, an instrument that she began playing when she was 6 years old.

Less that two decades later, Tobin, a master of fine arts student and the principle oboist of the Wind Symphony, found herself sitting in a lavishly furnished room in the new Ohio Union. She had just taken one of a couple oral examinations required for graduation with a master’s of music degree in oboe performance from Ohio State, and she was now waiting for President E. Gordon Gee, who was hoping for a personal recital from the musician.

Two weeks prior, Gee told a room of Lantern reporters that star basketball player Evan Turner was no more important to the university than the lead oboist of the university’s wind symphony after he was asked about the distribution of financial support to athletes as opposed to other students who contribute to the university.

Although he had never met Tobin, Gee seemed to

After four months of debate about more than a dozen proposals, the university Athletic Council will vote early next month on a proposed reallocation of football tickets after Ohio State switches to semesters in 2012.

The Finance and Facilities subcommittee of the council presented its recommendation April 6, but before the full council votes to accept or reject the subcommittee’s recommendation, other issues are quickly filling up the agenda.

In the second of three parts, The Lantern will explore some of the issues related to football ticket redistribution that the council might take up.

Today’s article explores the donors and longtime ticket purchasers, two groups with many seats at football games, but for whom the Athletic Council does not distribute tickets.

JACK MOORE Lantern reporter moore.1732@osu.edu The Athletic Council is grappling with the best way to allocate faculty, staff, student and alumni tickets after the semester switch. But even after distributing all those tickets, the Ohio Stadium would still be a sad sight on game day: half-empty.

“There are a lot of other bodies in the stadium,” said Karen Mancl, chair of the Finance and Facilities subcommittee.

They include the visiting team, its marching band and fans, public officials, media and people whose football tickets come by way of the size of their wallets — big donors.

The council is not tasked with supplying donor tickets. The authority for those tickets and the eclectic mix of others lies with the Athletic Department.

During the 2008 season, the donors’ share of tickets was nearly 22,000 a game.

They came from two groups: the President’s Club, a group of donors that contributes at least $2,500 a year to the university, and the Buckeye Club, the Athletic Department booster program.

Football tickets change

Part two

to buy season tickets with a $1,500 annual donation.

Peter Koltak, a student representative on the council, said the high number of donors at football games is essential for the Athletic Department.

“The department has to remain a solvent organization. It has to keep the money coming in, in order to pay its own bills,” he said. None of the groups on the council had the desire or willingness to reduce donor tickets, Koltak said.

After donors, the second largest group not allocated by the Athletic Council was longtime ticket purchasers, with almost 15,000 tickets per game.

This is a unique group of alumni who have the ability to purchase season tickets every year.

Most alumni are eligible to purchase a pair of

tickets to one home game each football season only after applying for a lottery with a 90 percent chance of receiving tickets.

Like the faculty and staff point system, the origin of the longtime ticket purchasers program dates to the 1980s.

In 1986, the Athletic Department, the Athletic Council and the Alumni Association created the one-time program that granted alumni who had purchased tickets for 15 consecutive years the ability to buy season tickets for the rest of their lives.

The program requires no donation and is based on the buyers’ loyalty to OSU football, Mancl said. The only requirement is that they continue to purchase their season tickets every year or lose their buying privileges.

Mancl said the program was instituted at a time when the stadium didn’t always sell out, and the program “promised” these deserving fans their tickets.

“These are very loyal fans,” she said, “and as long as they’re alive and as long as their spouse is alive, they will have the opportunity to purchase tickets.”

campus Employee, students thwart pursesnatcher at Thompson Library end of the library toward the Oval entrance, were a student and the purse’s owner.

One student tackled the alleged snatcher around his waist, and the owner and Hale joined in wrestling the man to the floor.

Hale held him in a headlock as the others controlled the rest of his body and waited for OSU Police to arrive, Hale said.

Hale has worked as a security guard for two years and said his actions were instinctual.

The purse-snatcher was identified as Joseph Williams, 45, listed as homeless on the police report.

Captain Eric Whiteside of University Police recounted the events more formally.

“At 9:48 a.m., a female staff left her office.

BRICE YOST Lantern reporter yost.97@osu.edu Shouts of “Security!” broke the silence of William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library on Tuesday morning, leading to an employee and two students thwarting a would-be pursesnatcher.

Sitting at the circulation desk on the first floor, Ohio State employee Steve Hale felt a rush of adrenaline when he saw the thief fleeing with a purse.

“It’s go time,” said Hale, a recent OSU graduate in geographical information systems.

Trailing the burglar, as he ran from the west

When she returned, she found the suspect inside of her office with her purse,” Whiteside said. “The suspect pushed back past her, and she followed him, calling for security.”

Security detained Williams until police arrived, arrested him and charged him with burglary.

He also had in his possession drug paraphernalia, but has not yet been charged.

There are 120 student security guards and 69 cameras in the libraries. OSU Police do a walk-through four times a day, said Duke Morgan, head of library security.

Security responsibilities are shared with the circulation desk, he said.

Company provides free discount cards to community KELSEY BULLER Lantern reporter buller.10@osu.edu Columbus’ beanstalk of small businesses hasn’t fully sprouted yet, but its farmer, Timothy Wolf Starr, hopes it will soon become giant.

The Small Business Beanstalk, founded Sept.

21, 2009, is an organization dedicated to the growth of small businesses. The organization encourages consumers to support local businesses through the use of free community cards — small key chain scanner cards, similar to grocery store cards — that offer customers discounts at member stores.

Cardholders can receive discounts at more than 50 shops in the Short North, and discounts are also available in Gahanna, Clintonville, Worthington, Grandview and Dublin. Hounddog’s Pizza, Haiku, the Gateway Film Center and Piece of Cake are a few of the shops that offer freebies and discounts.

“As a student, I’m on a strict budget,” said Holly Beach, a fourth-year in strategic communication.

“I usually use the card at my favorite dining place, Spinelli’s Deli, because I can get a free drink and side with my meal.”

Starr, founder and president of the organization, attended Ohio State for a year and a half, but he left to venture out into the entrepreneurial world.

He was involved in many different start-up

ventures, including owning a restaurant and bar.

Mostly stuff to get my hands dirty with, Starr said.

As a small business owner for 10 years, Starr realized that small businesses need to work together to compete with bigger businesses and keep money in the local economy.

As matchmakers for their business members, the organizations’s employees, who call themselves “farmers,” help connect small businesses seeking services to other small businesses through social networking and marketing.

The Small Business Beanstalk began as a service organization for business-to-business organizations, but Starr and his three business partners soon wanted to incorporate consumers into the equation.

“It’s the consumer who starts the whole business cycle in the first place,” said Charles Erickson, director of development for the organization.

The idea of the community card came when I went to an OSU game and was walking down Lane Avenue and saw everyone in bright red shirts, Starr said.

“So the question came up, ‘OK, how do we get all these people to shop local?’” Starr said.

The point of the community cards is to provide the average consumer with incentives to shop locally by offering deals or discounts at small businesses, Erickson said.

Not only were the cards meant to drive customer traffic to local businesses, they were also created

to increase awareness of the economic, social and environmental effects of buying locally.

“Shopping local is a very important step in a much larger process of creating stronger, diverse, unique communities,” Starr said.

The cards also encourage shoppers to try new stores in the area.

“Students coming from a small town might not be aware of different stores available to them,” said Heather Ziegler, an organization member and co-owner of What the Rock?!, a clothing store in the Short North. “The discounts get them to go out and see new things instead of just the malls they’ve been going to.

“You can go to chain stores anywhere, but you’re not going to find the kinds of things that are in all the little stores in the area.”

The organization has close to 300 small-business members, and it adds four to five new businesses every day. More than 10,000 individual consumers carry community cards, and President E. Gordon Gee signed up for a card at the Short North Gallery Hop on April 3, Starr said.

Despite its success, the organization struggled at first, like many fully self-funded companies. Starr and his partners scrapped for food, ate Ramen noodles and weren’t able to pay themselves for six months.

For those interested in starting a business, Starr said it’s important to be flexible.

“It’s very challenging if you go in acting like you know how things are going to be,” he said. “You’ll always disappoint yourself.”

Community cards are free and business memberships cost $500 a year, “which is less than a page ad in most newspapers,” Starr said. With the low membership fee, it would seem the organization wouldn’t make much profit. But because of its fast growth in the community, the business is starting to experience financial success.

“We’re projected to be completely cash positive in about 60 days, which is amazing for a start-up,” Starr said.

The organization is trying to conquer all of central Ohio by next year and all of OSU’s campus by September. Starr said the company is going to do a big push at OSU during the next Welcome Week.

“Even though OSU feels like its own community, all OSU students are part of the Columbus community,” Beach said. “If we can help out in any way, we should. This is a really easy way to help out because it rewards us with cheaper prices.”

Community members can sign up for the community card for free at thesbb.com/signup. OSU students who register for a card this month will be entered into drawings for free movie tickets at the Gateway Film Center.

“I used to make my own reeds. It’s hard to buy, find reeds,” Gee said when he introduced himself to Tobin in the Ohio Staters, Inc. Founders Room at the Union. “It’s a great sounding instrument, you’ve got to play a little something for me.”

After a short conversation between the two musicians, Tobin agreed to play for Gee, who said he admired the make and model of Tobin’s instrument, which turned out to be a mismatched combination of two separate oboes.

“This is actually kind of a mutant oboe,” Tobin said. “I got a new one two years ago, but the top joint got really cracked.” So she decided to combine an 8-year-old top joint with a 2-year-old bottom joint.

Despite the fact that an athlete such as Turner would never be seen using 8-year-old equipment in a game at the Schottenstein Center, Tobin said she feels financially supported by the university.

Financial aid “was a huge factor in [my decision] to come to Ohio State,” Tobin said. “I think that’s why the level of musicianship is high because they can offer that sort of funding.”

The appraisal Dickson received from OSU stated that “This work was given by the Freshman class of 1911 to the Ohio State University for display in the old Ohio Union.”

Dickson said OSU’s general counsel at the time, Virginia Trethewey, “verbally attacked” her over the phone after she refused to return the painting.

“She called here threatening me that if I didn’t give her the painting back, I wouldn’t be able to show my face here in Columbus,” Dickson said.

Trethewey refused to comment.

“Trethewey declined comment citing attorney-client privilege,” said Steve Proctor, vice president of communications and advocacy at the OSU Alumni Association, where Trethewey is now chief operating officer.

Dickson refused to give the painting back after Trethewey’s call. She hired an attorney to represent her in the battle with OSU and paid more than $5,000 in legal fees, documents show.

“I had decided that I wasn’t going to sell the painting unless I made a good profit on it,” Dickson said.

When the media found out about the controversy in 2000, questions were raised about who approved the sale of a class gift and where Dickson’s $50,000 went.

An article in the Columbus Dispatch stated, “The money was deposited into Ohio State’s

student-affairs account Aug. 6, according to a university deposit record.”

When the Lantern tried to confirm this statement with Dave Wiseley, associate director of the Ohio Union, he said, “As this event occurred in 1999 [if the date below is accurate], we would not have any paper financial records due to compliance with the General Records Retention Schedule.”

In response to questions about employees involved in the painting’s sale, Liz Cook, assistant director of OSU Media Relations, wrote in an e-mail, “These events transpired long ago and largely involved individuals who no longer work for Ohio State.”

In late 1999, Dickson sold the painting to Carolyn Schmidt, an OSU employee, for $115,000.

The sale price was based on a $150,000 appraisal from John Bobb, an art appraiser and Schille’s great-great nephew.

{

The painting was donated back to the university shortly thereafter.

Dickson did not know that Schmidt was planning to donate the painting back to OSU when she arranged the sale, she said.

Dickson’s bargain purchase and profit from the sale drew media attention. She thought the stories in the media portrayed her sale in “a very negative light.”

“It was presented as though me, with one year of college, went and somehow committed a fraud against a university with people with all kinds of law degrees and doctorates,” Dickson said.

“When I bought a painting that I was asked to buy and then made a profit on it, I was entitled to make a profit on that painting,” she said.

Dickson said she used her profit to pay for the education of her granddaughter, who is also her adopted daughter.

“I was just a grandmother trying to provide for my grandchild,” she said.

Dickson, who manages LME Gallery, has had a loss of business every year since the articles were published, she said.

“To continue this beating up and ridiculing me for buying a painting makes OSU and the people involved the most pathetic people on earth,” she said.

When the university reacquired the painting, it was put into a storage vault at the Wexner Center during the construction of the new Ohio Union, Cook said.

The painting later hung in Gee’s university residence, until it was placed in the new Union after the arm-wrestling stunt between Gee and the director of the Union, Tracy Stuck.

“The President’s office visited [the Wexner Center] and selected a few pieces to have placed in the University Residence [University property],” Cook said of the painting’s stay at Gee’s residence.

In last month’s arm-wrestling match, Gee won the first round, Stuck won the second, and the third was a draw. Gee decided the painting should hang in the Union.

Dickson still has copyrights to “Children at the Beach,” which now hangs outside the south entrance to the Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom in the Ohio Union.

Check out a 2000 Lantern editorial about the missing money OSU received when it sold the painting Page 4A

longtime ticket purchasers. When members wanted to know how many of those tickets become available each year, director of Athletics Gene Smith said trying to redistribute tickets from this pool now “would be nibbling at the edges” because so few regularly become available.

“We’re not talking about ending that program,” Mancl said, “because these people are big fans and have been very loyal to the program. We just want to think forward as to how to reallocate those tickets.”

Koltak said the council should have a policy in place “sooner rather than later” for what to do if several thousand of these tickets become available in a given year.

Students should have first pick of the tickets that become available, he said, followed by the alumni, and then faculty and staff.

However, the longtime purchasers pay full price for their tickets, and if they are shifted to students, who pay a discounted price, it would likely result in a loss of revenue.

“There are lots of ways to offset that,” he said. “It’s more about thinking creatively than anything else.” He listed ending the faculty and staff discount on tickets as a possible solution.

But Mancl said there was a “good chance” the tickets would be released back to the regular alumni ticket pool because the longtime ticket buyers are already alumni, and the council wants to “maintain a strong alumni presence” at football games.

A longtime season ticket package contains about seven games. If it were allocated back to alumni, it would amount to seven additional games for alumni who aren’t eligible to purchase season tickets.

“It will have a big impact on alumni ticket availability over time,” she said.

But, so far, Mancl said, no decisions have been made.

Tobin said that many other schools she had looked at for her master’s degree have had to make cuts in funding because of the economy. Tobin’s schooling is paid for through a fellowship and a teaching position, teaching music education majors oboe methods.

“I’ve had to scrape by some months, but [the university] has definitely been helpful,” Tobin said. “Especially since music is so time consuming … it would be really difficult to have to work another job.”

Aside from Gee’s comments comparing the two, Turner and Tobin have a lot more in common than most musician-athlete combinations.

Tobin was the captain of her high school basketball team when she was a senior in Quincy, Wash.

“I’m actually a really big college basketball fan,” Tobin said. “Several of the people on my dad’s side of the family played at Gonzaga [University], so I’m a huge Gonzaga basketball fan and I love watching March Madness.”

Tobin said she enjoyed watching both Gonzaga, which fell out in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, and OSU, which lost a round later in the Sweet 16.

“I definitely watched Evan Turner in those games and cheered on OSU,” Tobin said. “He’s an exciting player to watch, very well-rounded.”

When Turner declared in early April that he would be leaving OSU early to enter the NBA Draft, Tobin wished him well, saying that she hopes to see him go far. But Turner isn’t the only one preparing to go pro; Tobin too will be seeking professional opportunities in oboe performance after she graduates in June.

“I’m hoping to get some sort of full-time playing position,” she said.

“I’d love to play in an orchestra.”

She added that sometimes musicians have to be flexible. Most end up with teaching careers rather than performance careers, she said.

“I’m really not into the band-teacher route,” Tobin said. “I don’t feel that that is my calling.”

Tobin, who recently got engaged, is planning on moving to Albuquerque, N.M., with her fiancé, and will be looking for a position there. Gee, who is a self-proclaimed opera lover, recommended an opera that he frequents on trips out west.

“I’m a huge opera fan, so I go and spend time with the Santa Fe Opera. I actually have tickets this year,” Gee said. “So you can go and play with the orchestra there.”

Tobin, who expressed frustration that music performances aren’t often well-attended at OSU, said that even if there are only a few well-educated audience members in Weigel Hall who appreciate her work, she feels the same rush that she imagines Turner feels when he performs for 13,000 people in the Schottenstein Center.

“I wouldn’t mind having [Turner’s] pressure,” Tobin said. “I would be really excited that there were that many people interested in what I had to say on the oboe.”

But for now, despite Gee’s pleading, it doesn’t seem likely that the student body will come out in the same numbers for Tobin as they have for Turner.

student voice Memory of Alabama tornado still haunts survivors This begins an occasional series of stories written

by Ohio State students, faculty and staff as they narrate a meaningful day in their lives. The following is an account from a student who surivived a tornado that left nine dead.

Brian Hoerst For The Lantern hoerst.10@osu.edu Windowpanes began to blow out one by one in perfect rhythm as the winds sliced across the hall in circular movements, throwing debris and shards of glass against our bodies. The force was so powerful I didn’t have time to realize the wall I was facing had fallen.

The crumbling wall caused eight deaths inside the high school that day. The ninth was credited to flying debris inside a woman’s residence.

It was my mother’s birthday: March 1, 2007. I wished her the best before I left for school.

Events between 8 and 11 a.m. were normal. I parked my car in the last parking space it would ever fit into and attended my first two classes. The weather was overcast with a slight rainfall.

Around noon, the students and faculty began to

hear rumors of bad weather and tornado warnings.

There was not an overwhelming reaction, however, because foul weather is common in southern Alabama.

Everyone in the building slowly moved into the cramped hallways for routine bad weather precautions. As 1 p.m. loomed closer, the students came to understand the severity of the matter.

I sat with classmates and friends as our principal began shouting frantically for everyone to get ready.

I still had no idea what to expect.

It was difficult to imagine such a horrendous act happening at a school. The bland, white color of the walls and the repetition of activity blended into a completely safe environment where the outside world couldn’t force itself in.

I felt no fear.

“You feel safe inside [a school] for some reason,” said Ashley Armstrong, 20. “When the doors came off I became scared because the school changed into just another building and not the safe environment I knew before.”

As soon as I could brace for the impact, the storm was gone. It couldn’t have lasted more than a minute. I could feel strong gusts of wind and hear the swirling air move closer, but nothing was real until the lights in the hall went black in unison.

A decade later, Lantern painting riddle unresolved The following is an editorial printed in The Lantern in 2000. At that time, the newspaper’s staff members were investigating what the university did with $50,000 it received by selling a valuable painting, and why officials were so secretive about the exchange. On the front page of today’s edition, we explore that transaction, but some of the questions remain. And they may stay unresolved, as one spokeswoman commented that nearly everyone involved in the transaction has left OSU. Listen to this story, and see if you can figure it out...

The oil painting, “Children at the Beach,” by Columbus artist Alice Schille, was given to Ohio State by the 1911 freshman class. It hung in the Ohio Union until about 1997. In 1997, a Union employee accepted an offer from a local art dealer to buy the painting.

This summer, after the deal was approved by an attorney at OSU’s Office of Legal Affairs and the Office of Business and Administration, the painting was finally sold for $50,000. But its value is estimated at $150,000.

The whereabouts of that $50,000 is unknown. The art dealer who bought the painting then made several high-quality limitededition prints from it, one of which was sold for $7,500 last September.

Today, the university says the painting is back at OSU as part of the Wexner Center for the Arts’ private collection. It was reportedly redonated by an “anonymous friend” of the university. Meanwhile, a book about Alice Schille is expected to be published within a year.

Following this publication, the value of the painting is expected to increase dramatically.

Does this story sound fishy to anyone else?

Either OSU employees don’t know how to do business, or

something is being hidden from us. So what is strange about this entire scenario? First off, since when is a general employee of Ohio State given the power to sell university property? If an employee of McDonald’s sold all those cool OSU pictures on the walls, that person would probably be arrested. Wouldn’t someone have to be notified for the contract signing to even take place?

Second, even if the employees were given the power to sell the painting, wouldn’t someone figure out what kind of mistake was being made? Two OSU offices approved the sale, and it has been labeled as a mistake.

However, a mistake happens quickly and unknowingly. The contract that approved the sale took two years to make. During this time, isn’t it rational to believe that someone would have gotten the painting appraised to find out its real value? Or, perhaps, find out that it was a class gift that should not have been sold?

Third, how does OSU lose track of $50,000? Universities are required to keep records of things like this, yet no one knows what has happened to this money. According to the university, it went to the Ohio Union but no proof of that has been shown. Finally, why is everyone who knows something so “hush-hush?” If you read The Lantern’s article on this issue, which was published Monday, you will see that half of the article is made up of phrases such as, “officials refused to provide the transaction documents,” “did not return phone calls,” “officials could not confirm” or “refused to comment.”

Obviously, the whole story has not been told. A historical part of OSU was sold for one-third its monetary value, and the best explanation the university can give is a bunch of no comments and half-truths.

We have a right to know what really happened.

“

It was like an explosion of every possible emotion at once, like living an entire life in a few minutes.

The darkness was linked with death, and I immediately made the connection.

“Before [the tornado] hit, we didn’t realize how much trouble we could be in,” said classmate Mark Krystyn, 20. “The lights went out and it hit. It was a shocking moment.”

As the scene unfolded, my mind skipped over the details of the environment around me. My eyes were closed the entire time. I didn’t try to recall what had happened until minutes after, when the calm air re-entered.

I remembered hearing hushed whispers and

You tell us: USG election edition

gentle laughter change into harsh screams and pleas to God for safety. I panicked when I realized that was where my memory stopped. To calm myself, I closed my eyes again.

A million feelings replaced the gap where my thoughts should have been. For the first time, I couldn’t think. I could only feel.

I opened my eyes to view, through dusty air, the open space once confined by four walls. The courtyard between halls two and three exposed its green space as an escape from reality. However, reality was happening next to it, where students took their last breaths under a collapsed wall.

The smell of tar and the sharp pain of glass splitting the skin in my right palm were all that was real to me. But I felt like I had truly lived for the first time.

“It was like an explosion of every possible emotion at once,” said Doug Azbell, 20, “like living an entire life in a few minutes.”

I left the crippled building, avoiding scattered cinder blocks and pathways of glass. I looked into hundreds of dirty faces, some bloodied, but I felt alone. I was battered and in disbelief.

I was alive.

Students said they wanted scandal, we gave it to them LANTERN Columnist EVERDEEN MASON mason.388@osu.edu A few months ago, when I was Lantern editor, I and several other editors went to a lecture

4A

hall of about 100 students and let them ream us for more than an hour. The complaints covered a wide range of issues, but the most common complaint wasn’t about reporting or mistakes, but the content. Basically, The Lantern is boring, they said.

Students said they didn’t care about things like the financial issues of the university or student government, and that they wanted more entertaining articles — articles of political scandal and big-name conflict. That’s not surprising. It’s a well-known fact in journalism that people love to read about three things: sports, crime and sex. It’s morbid, but people like to read about

misfortune a lot more than they like to read about good deeds.

It’s what people are drawn to.

While it was disconcerting that people don’t care about university issues like these (you should, by the way; it’s your school and it’s your money), we did take student complaints to heart. We may not be able to afford to give you national stories about big names, and while we don’t have the resources to be at every crime scene, we can give you a healthy dose of scandal from some big names at our university: professors.

Move over Kate Gosselin.

We’ve got a pair of university personnel embroiled in a tragic

tale of love gone wrong, but better. Instead of the typical male aggressor, we’ve got an alleged younger female aggressor. And she’s a former research assistant and student. And the couple may have had sex on campus. This is even better than professors calling each other gay leprechauns and saying they want to punch each other in the face.

The most entertaining bit of this story is that neither of these “adults” can take responsibility for their actions. That’s the common theme in all of our stories about these scandalous professors. They act crazy and then blame everyone but themselves. They come up with

outrageous excuses, like that the red negligee was not sexual because their favorite color is actually blue, or that they were on Ambien so they don’t really remember having sex. Really, Loren Babcock? And now you are going to sue Ohio State because you decided to have an affair with a research assistant and ruin your own life? Classic.

Before my glee veers toward the mean-spirited, know that I’m also happy because I think the Lantern staff tried to give something new to our readers.

I’m happy because we gave our critics a story that veered from the normal Lantern fare they complained about.

Tackling these kinds of stories is difficult and risky for a professional, so I think it’s admirable that we have students willing to go for this kind of story. The reporting for this story began before spring break, and so I know that the staff worked really hard.

Should we report on scandals?

Alternative rock band Angels and Airwaves will headline a show with Say Anything on Thursday at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion.

The group is touring in support of its new album “Love,” which was released in February. The album is the third for what some might label a “super group” in the vein of Velvet Revolver and Chickenfoot.

Blink-182 guitarist and vocalist Tom DeLonge began working with Box Car Racer guitarist on what would become Angels and Airwaves’ first album, “We Don’t Need To Whisper,” in 2005. Drummer Adam “Atom” Willard of The Offspring joined in with Distiller’s bassist Ryan Sinn, who would later be replaced by Matt Wachter in 2007. At the time of the group’s creation, Blink-182 had just gone on an indefinite hiatus.

The group differs heavily from Blink-182, featuring ample amounts of synthesizers and other effects-driven music. “Love” contains even higher levels of effects, amounting to what DeLonge referred to as “space rock” in an interview.

The description is accurate, considering that the music will serve as the backdrop to a sci-fi film the band is releasing later this year.

“We approached writing the record with the mindset that we’re scoring a movie,” Wachter said. “We took a lot of the songs and deconstructed it and applied it to the movie.”

Wachter pointed out the sections of instrumental interludes on the album that he said were done in anticipation of placing them within a movie. He said the sounds on the album were the product of trying some new things.

“We wanted to experiment with some new gear,” he said. He added with a laugh that “the result was a lot of synth.”

“Love” the movie will be about a man trapped on the international space station while the Earth collapses below. Tom DeLonge has said that elements of time travel will also be involved. Confusing possibly, but Wachter said that like the album, the movie would deal with themes of loneliness and isolation.

The band Angels and Airwaves will play Thursday night at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion.

The album was released strictly as a free download on the band’s Modlife website. The band said that the free release was the result of “corporate underwriting,” but Wachter said the goal was to attract new fans to the group by not making them pay for the music. The group ended up releasing the album itself.

“We ended up financing the record ourselves,” Wachter said with a pause. “And going into a little bit of debt.”

Despite the financial hit, the group has largely succeeded in its goal of getting the album out to large amounts of people. “Love” has been downloaded more than 500,000 times from the band’s website, and Wachter said a majority of the band’s tour dates have been sellouts thus far. “[The sellouts are] a huge surprise because there wasn’t the big push from the label,” he said. “We were

a little nervous going into it. It’s just proof that putting out the free record worked.”

One of the band’s priorities is keeping in touch with its fan base.

Modlife was actually created by DeLonge in 2007 as a way to communicate directly with fans via live video broadcasts and instant messaging, as well as make downloads such as “Love” available. Many bands, such as the White Stripes and Korn, have begun using the website, as well.

DeLonge owns the site.

Wachter said the site has gained some big-name users simply because it works.

“It’s about taking things into your own hands,” he said. “And I think the bands that are using it have definitely found out that it is working.”

Blink-182 is going back on tour this summer, but Wachter said DeLonge’s involvement with his other

band doesn’t trouble Angels and Airwaves’ members. He said how much the band does is up to how much DeLonge tries to do.

“It’s a juggling act for Tom,” Wachter said. “He has a lot on his plate right now. It’s just a matter of how much Tom is willing to take on.”

For now, the band will focus on its current tour. Wachter said the band hasn’t started thinking about what comes after the music and film versions of “Love.”

“It’s hard to say where we’re going to go with the next record. I don’t think we’ve thought that far ahead,” he said, adding that taking a loss producing the album wouldn’t deter them from doing it again. “No regrets.

It’s what we set out to do, and we did it.”

Festival allows amateurs to display art Dallas Sampsel Lantern reporter sampsel.15@osu.edu Ohio Staters, Inc, will be hosting the second annual Festival of the Finest on Friday. The event will take place from noon to 5 p.m. in the Ohio Union.

The event showcases various mediums of art including traditional paintings, photography and performance art, including performances from the Medieval and Renaissance Performer’s Guild in the Union. Other performances will take place throughout the day in the U.S. Bank Conference Theater.

“It should just be a good time,” said Hans Voss, co-chair of the event.

The festival will showcase art submitted by people who pursue art as a hobby rather than a career.

“There are a lot of students that have art that they do that they spend a lot of time on that don’t get a chance to show it,” Voss said.

The paintings, photographs, performances and other varied arts will be on display for free to help bring recognition to those casual artists’ hard work.

“That’s kind of the point of the festival, to give students who wouldn’t normally display their art a chance [in a] very public place to do it,” Voss said.

The first festival was last year outside of the Wexner Center.

“There was nothing like this on campus that I had seen before,” Voss said. He said his goal was to “put art in a public place for any passerby to see it.”

Voss’ original plan involved art spread across the Oval.

“Slowly, I realized how unfeasible that was,” Voss said.

Voss reached out to other groups interested in a similar event to eventually put together the first festival.

He feels the Union is an even better place for the event.

“With the new Union here, this is a great public place to display art.” Voss said. “There are a ton of people here, right now, just walking through.”

Voss hopes the event will help reach people with a limited interest in art.

“We want to have people who wouldn’t normally go to a gallery [have] the opportunity to see that art,” he said. “Instead of people going out to the art, we want to bring the art to you.”

Voss said he wants this festival to provide the chance for everyone to experience the moment when a piece of art catches one’s eye and stirs up a reaction. Voss feels by exposing people to art it can help enrich their lives.

“That’s kind of the philosophy of art. It just generally makes our human experience better,” he said.

Established during the Great Depression, Ohio Staters, Inc. is a nonprofit organization interested in “projects to promote the welfare and traditions of the university,” Voss said. It is the oldest student service group on campus. The organization is made up of 36 students and 14 faculty and staff members. The group conducts projects across the university all year long.

Master of Fine Arts Exhibition displays best of OSU art JamI JURICH Lantern reporter jurich.4@osu.edu The 2010 Master of Fine Arts Exhibition, “Me and You and Everyone We Know,” opens Wednesday at Ohio State’s Urban Arts Space downtown. For the 27 participating Master of Fine Arts students, the exhibition will serve as both a beginning and an end.

The participating artists are wrapping up their time at OSU and the exhibition is their final showcase.

But Jennifer Bedford, the exhibition’s curator, said the exhibition should also be a new start for these students.

“The exhibition allows them to conclude their time at OSU, and it’s also to sort of launch them,” Bedford said.

Bedford has met with all the students, and they each have their own committee as well, she said.

Bedford said the artwork on display should represent the artist as an individual, but it should also demonstrate the group’s talent as a whole.

The exhibition should “showcase their work to the best of their ability and also as a group,” she said. “It’s not meant to be a portfolio, though.”

The participating artists work with different mediums and have

different specializations, including painting and drawing, sculpture, photography and printmaking, among others. They each have different styles that produce very different end results.

Danielle Thomas, a painting and drawing student, is inspired by “whatever the idea calls for,” she said.

Her section of the exhibition asks people to make a tool, take it home with them and videotape themselves using it. She hopes people will actually get involved.

“This is the first time I’ve ever done anything like this before. I’m interested to see if people are interested to participate in this kind of thing,” Thomas said of her hands-on work.

Thomas, who has a background in art education and ultimately hopes to teach, said she “likes to get people physically engaged.”

Rather than asking the audience to create something new, Julie Ward, a student specializing in sculpture, used old, unwanted items to create her art.

Ward’s sculptures are made of items she didn’t need anymore, along with a few pieces she found in a scrapyard.

“It’s all junk, stuff that no one wants,” Ward said. “Really, it’s the story behind the artwork.”

Despite the different styles and focuses each artist has, Bedford said there was something each piece had in common.

“We decided that after seeing the work, there was something that

“Don’t Quit your Daydream”

tied a lot of the work together,” Bedford said. “So much of it was very personal.”

Bedford chose the theme “Me and You and Everyone We Know” to sum up the exhibition as a whole based on the personal nature of the work, she said.

“Putting the title on it just sort of brought it together to take it past the point of just being a Master thesis show,” she said.

Bedford said she hopes the students are able to learn from the process behind the exhibition, but her ultimate goal is their happiness with the end result.

Once the artists finish their degrees and go on to begin their careers, they will take separate paths. Some, such as Thomas, hope to go on to teach. Some hope to show their work in galleries.

No matter what path they choose, their passion for art will follow them.

“All I know is I’m just gonna make stuff,” Ward said.

The exhibition will be at OSU’s Urban Arts Space through Thursday, May 21. The exhibition is open to everyone, and admission is free.

Rockers film musical roadtrip asHley DInGUs Lantern reporter dingus.11@osu.edu

NICK KROLL

Two 40-year-old aspiring rock stars, Clark Stiles and Nathan Khyber, document their passion for music and record the album of their dreams during a 24-day cross-country road trip in the film “Don’t Quit Your Daydream.”

Stiles and Khyber make up the experimental/pop/rock band The Good Listeners, and were both once a part of the 90s hit band Absinthe.

Although the movie could inspire driven musicians and possibly touch the heart of a sympathetic viewer, the film lacked depth and spontaneity.

The two musicians and a few technical support members left their day jobs in the dust to set off in an RV and stop in 12 cities, recording a song at each location. They would track down a local musician to participate as a featured artist on the tracks.

The Good Listeners chose unusual locations to produce the tracks. In Lexington, Ky., they created a song in a barn with Adrian Grenier from “Entourage.”

The tour began in Joshua Tree, Calif., and ended in Brooklyn, N.Y. If anything, their journey generated a handful of interesting characters who were local “rock stars.” The mildly eccentric

WHITNEY CUMMINGS

guest musicians are what kept the film moving.

The idea of the production seemed more exciting than the actual production. The theme of inspiring others to chase dreams no matter how far-fetched they are was a creative motive, but the monotonous pace of the film overshadowed the message.

The commentary from the artists about their dreams was heart-felt and emotional. The essence of the film was captured with their testimonies, but the viewer wasn’t taken on the journey with them. The intimacy between the viewer and the artists’ passion was separated because there wasn’t enough substance from The Good Listeners.

One thing that was enjoyable from the movie was the songs they created. The tracks did have substance and were relatable to any age group.

The documentary was a good way for the musicians to get their music heard by the public, and their testimonies were also a great way to contribute and connect to listeners.

The documentary will be showing at the Nashville Film Festival from April 21-22. The Good Listeners will also perform music from the soundtrack for the film during the festival.

Most people remember that day on the playground when everyone picked teams for kickball.

Some were picked first and felt honored and excited, while others were left hoping that they weren’t the last chosen.

The Buckeyes will go through a similar scenario today in the Scarlet and Gray draft.

The draft is designed to create the teams that will go up against each

other at the annual Spring Game on Saturday.

Jim Tressel planned the draft instead of having an additional practice before the Spring Game.

Before beginning the draft, Tressel splits the coaching staff and the seniors into two separate teams that will coordinate and choose the best players for their squads.

In past years, players have been chosen position by position, starting with defensive ends and ending with special teams.

According to tight-ends coach and recruiting coordinator John Peterson, the Buckeyes’ draft is very similar to the

NFL Draft, except that it is done much faster.

“We don’t have tons of time to decide on our players,” Peterson said.

“Most of the time we’re flying through things without much thought. We have a time constraint of 30 seconds per pick.”

For some positions, there are multiple players to choose from, but some positions only have two players as choices.

The experience should be a source of light-hearted fun as the Buckeyes prepare for this weekend.

Except for the guy who is picked last.

Receiver DeVier Posey takes on the Wisconsin defense after hauling in a catch during OSU’s 31-13 victory on Oct. 10, 2009.

Who will catch Pryor’s passes?

With the Spring Game approaching, The Lantern takes a look at the state of the Ohio State’s receiving corps for the 2010 season DOUG DILILLO Lantern reporter dilillo.2@osu.edu For a quarterback to be at his very best, he needs the best wide receivers.

Terrelle Pryor will be lucky enough to have two veteran wideouts in senior Dane Sanzenbacher and junior DeVier Posey. They could become one of the nation’s best receiving tandems, and their skill sets should give Pryor two reliable weapons.

Sanzenbacher has been dependable for three seasons, catching passes from Todd Boeckman and now Pryor. As he prepares for his final season wearing scarlet and gray, he is still working at being a better target.

“He can get better,” wide receiver coach Darell Hazell said.

“He has to work on second-level releases and those types of things, but he’s got a chance to be really special for us this year.”

Pryor found Sanzenbacher several times early in the season, but as the year wore on, Posey seemed to emerge as his favorite receiver.

Posey is an NFL-ready receiver who has a special blend of size, speed and excellent hands. He made his presence known in the biggest contests last season, catching game-changing touchdowns against Penn State and Oregon.

Ohio State has produced several phenomenal wide receivers since Jim Tressel took over in 2001, and Posey could be next.

“He’s got a lot of characteristics of a lot of different guys,”

Shark Week

Titus: ‘I could raise some hell with this draft’ This is the third of a four-part series about Ohio State basketball blogger Mark “The Shark” Titus and his future plans NICK OTTE Lantern reporter otte.28@osu.edu When the final buzzer sounded at the end of Ohio State’s win in its regular season finale, Mark Titus’ “playing” career in a Buckeye uniform was over.

On his own senior night, Titus shed tears, entered the game and recorded a “trillion” in his final collegiate game.

But is his basketball career over?

Despite entering — and promptly being kicked out of — last year’s NBA Draft, Titus said he’s ready to give professional basketball another shot.

“I’m going to try, yeah,” Titus said. “I’m definitely still a free-agent NBA player and if anybody wants to pick me up I’d be happy to lend my services.”

His first priority is getting healthy. Titus missed the majority of his senior campaign with a shoulder injury and had season-ending surgery following the Buckeyes’ completion of the regular season.

But NBA executives need not worry. Titus said he has fully healed and is ready to play.

“I just got out of the sling, which is really exciting,” he said. “I had to wear a sling for like five weeks or something like that. I’m excited to start playing again if I get drafted somewhere.”

Titus is aware, however, that some may question whether a guy who played in just 32 games during his four-year career is good enough to play in the NBA. For the doubters, he created his “Mr. Rainmaker” video earlier this year.

Following its release, Titus said he planned to use the video as evidence of his exceptional basketball abilities.

“I’m going to send the video to NBA scouts and see what comes back from that,” Titus said.

“I already tried to get a hold of Greg Oden to tell him to talk to the [Portland Trail] Blazers for me.

“We’ll see what happens, but I’m sure I could raise some hell with this draft too.”

Posey hoping to repeat as team’s top target ASHLEY WALTERMEYER Lantern reporter waltermeyer.3@osu.edu After catching a game-clinching touchdown in the Rose Bowl last season, DeVier Posey has emerged as a top target for quarterback Terrelle Pryor this year.

Posey, a junior receiver for the Buckeyes, finished last season with 60 receptions for 828 yards and eight touchdowns, as he filled the void at the position created when Brian Robiskie and Brian Hartline left for the NFL a season earlier.

“It’s weird that we’re growing up. Aside from being a talented youngster, we’re expected to be a seasoned veteran now,” Posey said. “It’s crazy how your role just flips within a winter.”

Heading into his third season at the position, Posey

feels the pressure to take on more of a leadership role to the younger teammates.

“We have high expectations for ourselves and that starts from the top to the bottom,” Posey said. “We’re trying to get our younger guys to fall in line with the older guys, and we won’t accept mediocrity. I think that’s the attitude of our team this year.”

As the Buckeyes prepare for next season, they have considered using three receivers rather than two, a decision that Posey stands behind.

“It allows us to do different things as an offense,” he said. “Every week it’s a different team, and the more versatile we are the better chance we have to be successful on offense.”

Posey has sensed the excitement building up among teammates as they will soon be able to showcase their skills in front of fans at the Spring Game.

Washington preaching consistency as a senior KIRK MCELROY Lantern reporter mcelroy.41@osu.edu Taurian Washington could have thrown in the towel or transferred to another school after a disappointing 2009 season during which he didn’t record a single catch.

Instead, he has continued to work hard and has been playing wide receiver with the first team offense this spring.

“I went through a lot of adversity,” Washington said. “I kind of thought

I was going to play a little bit more, but sometimes you have to wait for your turn, and now is my turn. I’m just basically trying to wait patiently and do everything that I can.”

Washington came to the Buckeyes in 2007 as a four-star recruit. In his first season, Washington scored a touchdown in the season-opening game against Youngstown State.

Buckeye fans saw some promise from the freshman out of Orchard Lake, Mich.

Unfortunately, Washington’s early success was short-lived. He finished off the 2007 season with

three receptions for 46 yards and one touchdown.

In 2008, Washington saw sparse playing time and finished the year without a reception.

In 2009, Washington’s chance to step into the starting lineup for the Buckeyes had come. After a strong spring, he entered the season as the third receiver for the Buckeyes behind Dane Sanzenbacher and DeVier Posey.

In the season opener against Navy, Washington dropped a couple of passes thrown his way and never rebounded. The remainder of the

California love: Team embraces Golden State mates EVAN CLOSKY Lantern reporter closky.2@osu.edu

California and Ohio are two states with seemingly no connection between their different weather and lifestyles. But on the Ohio State softball team, the players embrace their differences, and as a result, have become a more cohesive unit.

The Ohio State softball team currently has 19 players on their roster, 10 of which hail from the state of California.

“There are a lot of players out there,” coach Linda Kalafatis said. “It is probably the best location in the world for fastpitch softball, and the competition level is pretty consistent. Not only are they able to play more, but they are able to play at a really high level.”

Every team in the Big Ten has at least one California player on its roster, but Ohio State’s 10 players are the most in the conference, topping Penn State’s seven.

seeking depth behind Posey and Sanzenbacher Hazell said of Posey. “He’s got the explosiveness of Santonio Holmes, he’s got almost the top-end speed of Teddy [Ginn], he’s got wiggle like Gonzo [Anthony Gonzales] has in the slot, so he’s got a lot of different characteristics of a lot of those guys. So it’s pretty fun to watch.”

Although Posey has shown flashes of being the next great wideout for OSU, he isn’t content with anything but perfection.

“I want to go from being a good receiver to a great receiver and those are just expectations for myself,” Posey said. “I like to set the bar high and I don’t like settling for anything less than that.”

OSU has nothing to worry about when using a two-receiver set, but when the Buckeyes look to spread the field with more than just Sanzenbacher and Posey, the depth at wideout is something the Buckeyes are still working on.

Last season it looked as if the Buckeyes had found their third guy in Duron Carter. He pushed for playing time all season and made some catches that looked as if his father was still on the field.

Carter, however, has been held back for academic issues and didn’t travel with the Buckeyes to Pasadena for the Rose bowl. He hasn’t practiced with the team this spring.

“It hurts a lot. We miss him [Duron] but the show has to go on,” Posey said. “We can’t wait for him to get back. We love the kid. He is a great guy and he is a great personality in the meeting room, and he is a fun guy, and I know I miss him and we need him as soon as we can get him.”

Dane sanzenbacher races to the end zone after making a catch against toledo on sept. 19, 2009.

With Carter unable to fulfill his role as the Buckeyes’ third weapon in the passing game, two players seem to be in line for that duty.

Freshman Chris Fields and senior Taurian Washington are two very different players but they are both vying for the same position.

Washington, who has had several opportunities to assert himself over the years, might have one final shot to prove he can be an asset to the Buckeye receivers. He has struggled in his time at OSU with consistency and letting his past mistakes hold him back.

Fields, on the other hand, is a redshirt freshman who has used the lack of viable options to get recognized, and spring practice has been his time to shine.

Washington from 1B

Senior receiver

received limited playing time last season

season, he saw little playing time as freshman Duron Carter and senior Ray Small combined to play the majority of the season at the third wide receiver position.

“I haven’t been consistent, that’s one of the biggest things that I work on every day,” Washington said. “I write that down on my goal sheet every day before practice, just be consistent, focus, be accountable, and do the little things.”

Washington could have followed in the footsteps

The Buckeyes will also have three freshman wideouts in James Louis, Ty Williams and Corey Brown who could add depth along with veteran Grant Schwartz and redshirt freshman James Jackson.

“I feel like we have a nice core group and we are looking for some younger guys to step up,” Posey said. “It is just exciting to see younger players do their things. Guys like Chris Fields and James Jackson and guys like Grant Schwartz that you haven’t seen yet.

“It is just exciting to see the younger guys grow.”

of former teammate Lamaar Thomas, who transferred to New Mexico because of a lack of playing time. But Washington returned to OSU for his senior season.

Washington said he wanted to come out another year and help the team win. He is quick to defer any personal attention to the success of the team.

“He keeps battling. I have a lot of respect for him because he comes out and studies the game and works hard,” said wide receiver coach Darrell Hazell.

“He has done a nice job the first couple of weeks here, so hopefully he can be that guy that can give us some support.”

Washington fought off illness early in the spring to remain the starter at third receiver. He has kept his eyes on the prize and focuses daily on the things that he can do to improve the team’s performance.

“I feel like we’re practicing with a sense of urgency, like we have a game on Saturday,” he said. “Our urgency is increasing. You can hear it in the coaches’ voices, and in the different drills we’re doing.”

At the Rose Bowl, the Buckeyes established themselves in the passing game more than they had in any previous game that season, as Pryor threw for 266 yards, 101 of them to Posey. Throughout the spring, Posey has experienced first-hand the improvements that Pryor continues to make to his game.

“He’s gotten a lot better,” Posey said. “I’m just trying to get used to catching his passes right out of breaks. It’s a lot different than last year.

Our timing is a lot better now, and I think it’s me getting used to the ball being right on me. You can definitely see his improvements.”

Although the offense might seem more established in this season than in others, Posey still sees much room for improvement.

“I’ve done some practice on my own and some with DeVier [Posey] and Dane [Sanzenbacher] in the offseason,” Washington said. “After we get done working out, we come in and spend 25 to 30 minutes doing catching drills.”

Sanzenbacher said every year there seems to be a battle for the third receiver position, and the competition makes the players develop much quicker.

“Taurian has always been a guy that has worked hard, that hasn’t been the issue,” Sanzenbacher said. “It’s just putting it together in the moment. He’s put in a lot of hard work and he looks really good.

When we run three receivers wide in practice this spring, Taurian has been the third guy.”

OSU Ride the

“I see a lot of weaknesses, a lot of areas we can get better,” he said. “We know we can be good, but we just can’t settle with being good.”

Darrell Hazell, wide receiver coach for the Buckeyes, has been impressed with the growth he has seen from Posey during the off-season.

“He’s a special athlete and we’re expecting him to have a special year,” Hazell said. “He has a lot of physical ability.

He’s explosive, he’s quick, he’s got good body control and he loves the game. Hopefully he becomes more consistent in the next couple weeks and stays healthy over the summer so he can have a great year.”

When it comes to next season, Posey has only the highest expectations for himself.

“I just want to go from being a good receiver to a great receiver, those are just my goals for myself,” Posey said. “I want to set the bar high, and I don’t like settling. Everyday I’m out here I’m hard on myself. I want to be perfect every single day. I don’t want to have any missed assignments. That’s what I have to do every day to be the player I want to be.”

sports California from 1B

Ten of 19 players

on OSU softball team hail from California

austin owens / Lantern photographer

Shortstop Alicia Herron strays into foul territory to catch a pop up.

It is no surprise that different backgrounds have forced all 19 players to adjust to each other’s lifestyles. Though change can cause problems, the team has welcomed the differences in a positive way.

“There is definitely some friendly jabbing at each other here and there,” All-American catcher Sam Marder said.

This was evident in the opposing views of each other’s footwear.

“The California girls wear Vans and the Ohio girls wear Crocs,” Marder said. “I just think those are ridiculous shoes, but they think my Vans come from Wal-Mart.”

The music scene has also caused the California players to flex their muscles in the locker room.

“With music, you don’t get anything out here until four months later,” freshman pitcher Melanie Nichols said.

Additionally, Columbus does not seem to exude the same excitement as Southern California.

“They are probably more country, while we are fast-paced city people,” sophomore shortstop Alicia Herron said.

Not only do the players have to make adjustments on the field, but wardrobe changes are necessary as well.

“I never owned a winter coat before I came here, so I wasn’t exactly sure what I was supposed to wear,” Marder said.

While the California athletes miss their tans and tantalizing beaches, they have fallen in love with the state of Ohio. Although

the cold weather can be a burden for many Ohio natives, the California women appreciate the conditions.

“The biggest thing I love out here is the four seasons,” Herron said. “Along with the changing of the leaves, it’s a different wardrobe, weather and climate. I love all that about Ohio.”

The biggest struggle for most of the California players is how far away they are from home.

“The first couple of weeks I got here it was really hard because I am really close with my family,” Nichols said. “But, they support me in everything I do, so that makes it a lot easier, but of course I still miss them.”

Although the team depends on Marder most of the time to produce the big hit, she equally depends on her teammates for support off the field.

“Ohio really feels like a second home to me because I have been here so long and I go to the girls’ homes for the holidays,” Marder said. “Whether we kid around with each other here and there, the girls welcome us into their home, and at the same time, let us really make it a home of our own. I will always be really grateful for that.”

Although the Buckeyes are diverse in background, team chemistry is not an issue. No matter where the player is from, all 19 players have the same expectation: winning.

“I think it is one of the beautiful things we do here,” Kalafatis said. “We mesh all those personalities and differences into one cooperating group.”

The players have been united under the leadership of Kalafatis, who said there is no connection between her alma mater, California University of Pennsylvania, and her recruiting strategy.

Marder joins Sloopy’s Sandwich Club evan closky Lantern reporter closky.2@osu.edu In the batting order, Samantha Marder usually hits fourth for the Ohio State softball team and has ordered up 56 career home runs at the plate.

Now, at Sloopy’s Diner, people can order a Sam Marder on their own plate at the Ohio Union.

The Sam Marder turkey bistro sandwich features turkey, Swiss cheese, coleslaw and A1 steak sauce on marble rye.

In Sloopy’s first annual Sandwich Club Awards, Marder, along with 12 other honorees, was selected to have a sandwich named after her for the 2010-2011 school year.

Students, faculty, staff and alumni were all eligible to apply or be nominated for this award.

“It is our honor to celebrate the people who strive to make a difference on our campus,” said Marie Thornhill, the Union’s special projects coordinator. “These awards honor those that embody the spirit of the Ohio Union and truly know what it is to be a Buckeye.”

Wednesday April 21, 2010

Marder had no knowledge that she was in contention for this award.

“I thought it was a joke at first, honestly,” Marder said.

Valerie Kunze, a graduate student in the Moritz College of Law, was the one who nominated Marder.

“I nominated Sam because I felt she represented a group of students that are doi ng something great at Ohio State University that most students don’t hear a lot about,” Kunze said. “Sam is a perfect example of all things that OSU values: diversity, hard work, perseverance, dedication and unconditional spirit.”

Marder exemplifies these values on and off the field. Besides hitting home runs, she is dedicated to getting OSU athletes involved with the student body through the Student-Athlete Advisory Board.

Although Marder appreciates the honor, her teammates have found fun to make jokes.

“The team totally makes fun of me all the time,” Marder said. “It’s ridiculous how much press I have gotten from this sandwich. I can’t believe it.”

Marder has learned to cope with the constant joking, and she is pleased with her choice of sandwich.

A selection committee chose the 13 finalists and then double-checked for any dietary restrictions or preferences before assigning each winner a sandwich.

“The committee also took a careful look into each application/nomination and tried to pull key elements out of each to help select the perfect sandwich for each winner,” Thornhill said.

Some of the other sandwiches include a BLT, chicken, fish and a classic grilled cheese. But one specific sandwich stuck out in her mind.

“When I heard fried bologna, I was like ‘please, no. Let it not be me,’ but I was really happy with my sandwich,” Marder said. “I think it’s really good.”

Along with getting her name and a short biography on Sloopy’s menu, she also gets to enjoy one free meal with a guest from the restaurant during her award year.

Someone has already volunteered to keep her company at Sloopy’s.

Kunze said, “Maybe I’ll get a free sandwich out of the deal as her guest one of these quarters.”

Simplicity.

To the letter.

Horoscopes by Nancy Black and Stephanie Clements, ©2010 Tribune Media Services Inc. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY Steer your craft through agitated emotional waters this year by focusing on the practical details. Release emotions in private when possible. Cool down before making decisions.

Heal difficult relationships with compassion for all (especially yourself).

To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

ARIES March 21 – April 19 Today is an 8 -- As carefully as you have defined each responsibility, you discover that some people didn’t take notes. Review details privately to support the whole team.

TAURUS April 20 – May 20 Today is a 6 -- You almost have all the personal details figured out. There’s one last thing: You have to let everyone in on the plans.

GEMINI May 21 – June 21 Today is a 6 -- To wrap your mind around a problem, let your thoughts wander where they may. Take note.

Then formulate a solution.

CANCER June 22 – July 22 Today is a 6 -- If you keep your eye on the prize and adjust your demands to suit the group, progress will be made without additional stress.

LEO July 23 – Aug. 22 Today is a 7 -- Just about anything you do today will work out nicely. Consider balancing public appearances with a private financial conversation.

VIRGO Aug. 23 – Sept. 22 Today is a 5 -- Someone stresses out over faulty communication equipment. Resort to old-fashioned telephones. They may be retro, but they still work.

LIBRA Sept. 23–Oct. 22 Today is a 6 -- Talk over any major decisions with co-workers. Devise a plan that reduces stress while accomplishing the desired changes.

SCORPIO Oct. 23 – Nov. 21 Today is a 5 -- The beauty of having good luck today is that others find you especially clever. They don’t realize you’re just winging it. Keep them in the dark.

SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22 – Dec. 21 Today is an 8 -- Responsibilities take you into a public forum, where you analyze confusing situations and make recommendations based on experience.

CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is a 6 -- Everything remains on an even keel.

You’ve scoped out the details in advance and know exactly what needs to happen. Isn’t it great?

AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is a 7 -- Don’t get agitated if some things don’t go your way. View issues as opportunities to gain ground or grow a new skill.

PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is a 6 -- You wish you could have it your way, and you’re tempted to ignore an older person’s instructions. It would be much easier to adjust your desires to suit others today.

There’s a better way to manage your letters of recommendation.

With the ETS My Credentials Vault service SM

powered by Interfolio

The letter of recommendation is a top priority for graduate and professional school applicants. Now there’s an easier way for letter writers and applicants to simplify the entire process.

ETS and Interfolio have created the My Credentials Vault SM service so that letter writers and applicants can quickly and securely manage letters of recommendation.

An easy-to-use, web-based tool, the My Credentials Vault service helps streamline the entire process from initial request through delivery.

The My Credentials Vault service is FREE for letter writers.

One letter. One way. Many options. Letter writers can use any word processing software to write their confidential letter; they can then securely upload their letter into the My Credentials Vault service. Letter writers can also mail a hard copy of the letter if preferred. The applicant can then send that letter to multiple institutions.

A single system that helps keep everyone organized. During peak application times, requests for letters of recommendation can really begin to pile up. With the My Credentials Vault service, letter writers and applicants can track letters in one centralized location — online, anytime.

Secure and confidential. The My Credentials Vault service is a safe, secure online environment that upholds all confidentiality standards. Letter writers have access to any letters they upload. Applicants can track and manage their letters, but they cannot see the content of confidential recommendations.

Start using the My Credentials Vault service today — and simplify the process for everyone.
