Verizon to improve game day cell serviceKAYLA BYLERLantern reporter byler.18@osu.edu

On Buckeye game days, it’s nearly impossible to get cellphone service.

Ohio State, partnered with Verizon Wireless, is working on a three-phase, three-year project to alleviate problems with service outages.

Kelly Garrett, assistant professor of communica-tion said the increased number of people on campus is the main source of problems with cellphone service on football game days.

Record attendance at Ohio Stadium is more than 106,000, which exceeds the normal 80,000 OSU students and employees on campus any given day.

“It is not uncommon for the cellphone compa-nies to have too few channels to support all those people,” Garrett said.

Verizon and OSU are working to develop a “Neutral Host Wireless Distribution System (WDS) solution to ensure that campus cellular capacity and coverage will meet the ever-growing demand for mobile connectivity,” according to a release from the Of� ce of the Chief Information Of� cer.

Verizon will pay all costs related to the project, said Kathy Starkoff, chief information of� cer at OSU.

After working with different specialists across campus, the university sought out numerous service providers and “Verizon was the winning bid,” Starkoff said.

Once completed, Verizon “will sublease capacity to other vendors,” Starkoff said, so users of all cellphone providers will benefit from the project.

Construction on the project is expected to be discrete.

There will not be a “giant tower,” Starkoff said. “It really is a number of devices that will be placed around campus depending on the expected capac-ity needs, and we will work closely with the facility organizations to make sure that the systems are discrete … If you’re lucky you’ll never see it, but we know they’re there.”

The OCIO saw service outages as a problem and understood the urgency in solving it, Starkoff said.

“We like to proactively manage all of our systems and networks, and we understand that at peak times

the coverage was not what it should be,” Starkoff said.

The three-phase, three-year project is on time for completion in 2015, Starkoff said.

Phase one is scheduled to be included in June 2013. This phase will target service in and around the Wexner Medical Center, Police Command Center at Ohio Stadium, OSU Police Headquarters, William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library, Ohio Union and Blackwell Inn.

“In addition to supporting the cellular services,

Not all universities oppose concealed carryMICHAEL BURWELL Lantern reporterburwell.37@osu.edu

Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee doesn’t approve of guns on campus, and he’s made it clear he won’t be changing his mind.

“Not as long as I’m president. I am totally, unequivocally opposed,” said Gee in a Sept. 10 interview with The Lantern. “I want to be very clear about that. I think that is a horrible idea on a univer-sity campus for people to be carrying guns. Period.”

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures website, Ohio is one of 21 states that bans carrying a concealed weapon on any college campus. OSU currently has a policy that prohib-its individuals from carrying guns on campus, a prohibition one student group thinks violates Second Amendment rights and plans to � ght the university with a lawsuit on the issue.

In an email to The Lantern, OSU Police Chief Paul Denton stressed the police’s respect for

constitutional rights but also highlighted the reason behind the campus rule.

“The fact is that under current Ohio law, concealed carry license holders are limited or prohibited from carrying concealed handguns in numerous locations, among which are churches,

synagogues, mosques, child day care centers, buildings owned or leased by Ohio or its political subdivisions, colleges and universities,” Denton said in the email.

Gee’s � rm stance on the issue is re� ected by some other Ohio universities and their own policies.

“Knowing that one can make very persuasive arguments on both sides of the guns on campus issue, my stance is consistent with President Gee in that I feel the campus is a safer place with restric-tions on guns on campus in place,” said Director and Chief of Police of the University of Toledo police department Jeff Newton in an email.

Newton said he isn’t concerned that citizens who qualify for carrying a concealed weapon pose a threat, but he’s worried about gun security overall.

“Theft is the most pervasive crime on campus and the density of people in a campus environment and residence halls make combating theft uniquely

Case could alter affi rmative action’s future BRANDON KLEIN Lantern reporterklein.340@osu.edu

It all started with a simple college application. How colleges evaluate applicants and race

at public universities like Ohio State could be changing with an upcoming Supreme Court decision.

Abigail Fisher, a white student who wanted to attend a Texas university in 2008, brought the case to the court’s attention. Fisher did not qualify for the “Top 10 percent” law that the Texas legislature had passed in 1997 which automatically accepts the top students in every Texas high school to any Texas state university, regardless of race.

Fisher went through the regular admission process but when she was denied entrance, she sued the school claiming that Texas’ use of race did not meet the standards set by the Supreme Court’s ruling in the 2003 case Grutter v. Bollinger, which debated whether race could be used in the admission process for the Univer-sity of Michigan’s law school. It was decided in a 5-to-4 opinion that race could be used in the admissions process so universities and colleges could ensure a diverse student body.

However, institutions were prohibited from using race quotas.

Things could change for future student appli-cants in the admission process if the Supreme Court rules in favor of Fisher.

The decision to prohibit racial considerations in college admissions would have an impact for OSU’s admission process, said Vern Granger the OSU associate vice president of enrollment services and director of admissions.

“It’s a hot topic among universities like us,” he said. “Ohio State (is) looking at monitoring the case closely.”

If the court prohibits the use of race in the admission process, it would be “tougher to say how much so,” Granger said, adding that race is not “exclusively used” but is a secondary factor in the review process.

The most important factor, Granger said, is that the university focuses on is the student’s “academic capability to be successful at Ohio State.”

Some students are in favor of the court to prevent race as a consideration in the admission process.

“People go to college to further their educa-tion so that’s what should be focused on,” said Chrislyn Koch, a first-year in exploration. Koch said that certain traits such as sex, gender and race should not be considered in the admissions process.

A panel of professors and legal experts discussed the issues surrounding the latest affirmative action Supreme Court case, Fisher v. University of Texas on Tuesday at OSU. The panel, which met at the Moritz College of Law, examined some of the likely outcomes as well as the future of affirmative action. Sharon Davies, the executive director of the Kirwan Institute, moderated the discussion.

“The population is shifting,” said Angel Harris, a Princeton University professor, at the panel. She said that by 2050 the minorities would become the majority, which would have an impact on the educated population. So far in 2012, minority births in the U.S. exceeded births of white children.

The case is an attempt to “write race out of the law,” said Damon Hewitt, director of educa-tion practice for NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. He said there are “significant racial disparities” that cannot be ignored for this to happen.

Other than overruling the Grutter decision, the Supreme Court would have to either uphold the decision, or narrow it to private and law schools, said Phillip Daniel, the OSU law professor who was on the panel.

Some students think diversity is an impor-tant characteristic to the student body at OSU. Among them is Chizo Emeaghara, a third-year in exercise science. As an African-American, Emeaghara said he attended a predominantly white high school.

“It’s nice to see another black face,” he said smiling. “It’s always nice to have diversity at your school.”

Emeaghara said diversity is important for the school’s student body, but should not be an exclusive factor in the admission process.

“You still need to work hard,” he said.Of the almost 57,000 OSU students who

attend the Columbus campus, 8,187 minorities make up 14.4 percent of the campus population, according to a university website.

The court’s decision is expected to come in late June.

“It’s going to impact a lot of universities like us,” Granger said of OSU.

difficult,” Newton said. “A certain amount of guns will definitely fall into the wrong hands.”

University of Cincinnati Police Chief Michael Cureton said “the likelihood of more accidents on campus would increase dramati-cally as you bring more guns on campus.”

“You can’t determine who has a gun, what their qualifications are, what training they may have had, what the quality of the gun is and what kind of circumstances that surround an incident that involves a gun,” Denton said. “There’s just too many variables that could go wrong in an everyday setting.”

Other concerns among officials from other Ohio universities include knowing who the attacker is and who the victim is if guns are allowed on campus.

“If there is a threat on campus, I would also be concerned with police officers distinguishing between the threat and the persons defending themselves,” Newton said.

However, some schools that allow concealed carry on campuses by law have not had any problems with the policy. Among those schools is Utah State University, where guns are permitted by state law.

“We know there are students and faculty and staff that are carrying (a concealed weapon), but to this point it has not been an issue for us,” said Chief Steven Mecham of the USU Police Department.

According to the Utah State Legislature, “unless specifically authorized by the Legislature by statute, a local authority or state entity may not enact, establish or enforce any ordinance, regula-tion, rule or policy pertaining to firearms that in any way inhibits or restricts the possession or use of firearms on either public or private property.”

The law, which was renumbered and amended in 2008, also states “‘local authority or state entity’ includes public school districts, public schools and state institutions of higher education.”

Mecham said the only initial concern when the law was passed involved faculty concerns if students came to their offices with a firearm, but those concerns “just kind of went away.”

According to the NCSL website, in 24 states the decision to ban or allow concealed carry weapons on campuses is made by each college within those states individually. Five states — Colorado, Mississippi, Oregon, Utah and Wisconsin — have provisions allowing the carrying of concealed weapons on public postsecondary campuses due to recent state legislation and court rulings.

Joe Smith, president of the OSU student group Buckeyes for Concealed Carry, said allowing concealed carry on campus is important because you “have the ability to defend yourself and keep yourself from being a statistic of violent crime.”

Smith also said the victim of a violent attack, who might be smaller or not as physically built as the attacker, “equalizes the playing field by having a firearm,” and can overpower the attacker if they don’t have a firearm.

Other students, however, have had conflicting opinions on the issue.Matt Troyer, a fourth-year in history, said he has always felt

concealed carry is a good thing, but as far as allowing it on campus, it’s more of a “tricky conversation.”

“I would have to see a good argument for it,” Troyer said.Josh Haug, a first-year in actuarial science, said he wouldn’t

feel comfortable if guns were allowed on campus.“I wouldn’t say it’s a great idea (to allow guns on campus),”

Haug said. “I personally would be really scared with that because I know there’s been a lot of crimes and hate crimes on campus. Some of them can be quite violent and if weapons were allowed to be concealed, I couldn’t trust anybody with that.”

According to the Ohio Students for Concealed Carry website, the group is planning to sue OSU, but it couldn’t say specifically when because the timing is dependent on funding.

After almost 10 weeks of Fall Semester, half-semester classes have wrapped up and second-half classes have commenced. But complications from this new course setup have some students giving mixed reviews.

Keri Ruzicka, a third-year in marketing, had a half-semester class this summer and has two more this semester. She said the shortened classes are not like the normal ones she is used to.

“The one I took over the summer didn’t even feel like a class because it went by so fast,” Ruzicka said. “The second one was a public speaking one, so that was OK pace-wise, but they just go by so fast that it’s just so much information at once. It was sort of hard to do it all, I guess.”

Ruzicka also said she had some scheduling issues going into the semester.

“I got wait-listed for a lot of my classes and unfortunately my adviser was on maternity leave, so they just kept handing me off to different people and I wasn’t getting any of my problems solved,” Ruzicka said. She didn’t get into her second half-semester class until the day it started.

However, other students said they have noticed some benefits to these faster classes.

“I like them. It was quick pace,” said Al Endrai, a fourth-year in agricultural business, who also said the course material was communicated the same in his half-semester class as his full-semester classes. He took one half-semester class that recently ended, and said the class material was the same just more condensed.

Miranda Gloyd, a third-year in nursing, said she enjoyed her first half-semester class. Gloyd was registered for a class that recently ended, and has also started a new half-semester class that will continue through the rest of the term.

“I like the fact that they are really short and instead of having two classes for a long period of time, you have that one class you can focus on for that short period of time,” Gloyd said. “There is more of a work load in (a half-semester class), but I kind of like it …

was just that one class at a time and not two classes I had to focus on.”

Textbooks are another added expense for half-semester classes. With full-semester classes, students typically only need one set of books per class. Half-semester classes, however, require two separate sets of textbooks in the same semester term. Ruzicka said she is not pleased with her current textbook situation.

“I actually got a book recently, I was going to try and get it from someone else but I couldn’t and it was another $100 with shipping and everything,” Ruzicka said. “It is sort of ridiculous that it is another $100 for a seven-week class when I spent less on the book that lasts (16 weeks).”

But Gloyd said even though you are paying for textbooks for classes that have been condensed or combined, you would still need to buy them if they were full-semester classes.

“Even if you have those two classes for a full semester, you would still have to buy the same amount of books,” Gloyd said.

Students’ choice on Election Day might affect job prospects after graduationallisOn slOnakerLantern reporterslonaker.15@osu.edu

The state of the job market is bleak, or at least some college students think so.

The glare that was fixed on job creation during the presidential debates left college students across the country worried about post-diploma life.

During the Oct. 16 presidential debate, a worried college student asked the candidates what they could say to ensure he will be able to support himself after graduation.

Both candidates gave answers about how they plan to increase jobs and give college students the opportunity to support themselves after graduation.

President Barack Obama and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney agreed the most important thing they need to do is to have jobs for college graduates after they receive their diplomas. Both candidates also noted these jobs need to be good, “college-leveled” jobs.

During the debate Obama said he wants to continue to build on the 5 million jobs that have been created in the last 30 months. According to data from the White House, American businesses have added 5.2 million jobs within the last 31 months, and according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 151,000 U.S. jobs have been added each month since January of this year, which is similar to number from 2011.

Romney is well-known for his experience in business and for his time at Bain Capital, a private investment firm, where he was worked from 1984 to 1999.

During his time at Bain, the Romney campaign said he contributed to adding 100,000 jobs.

Some students at Ohio State have expressed concerns on where and how they will get jobs after leaving the university.

Sarah Taylor, a third-year in English, said even though she still has one year of school left, she is looking for a job and is worried she won’t find one in her field.

“There is a worry because I am an English major and I don’t know what I’m going to do,” Taylor said. “I’m worried I won’t be able to find something that I like to do and has an aspect of English in it.”

Amie Draper, a fourth-year in biomedical science, plans to attend graduate school after graduating in the spring, but she still has concerns about landing a job after she completes her graduate degree.

Draper said she is also concerned about finding a job where she can use the degree she spent so many years earning.

“I’m definitely concerned with finding a job post-graduate school, especially with the economy,” Draper said. “More specially, getting a job in an area (where) I actually want to live.”

Draper said it’s better to have any job rather than no job, but she would love to have one she feels qualified for.

“I think a main concern, right now, is mainly the economy and lack of jobs,” Draper said. “I think things like finding jobs and paying back students loans can be solved by improving that economy and making sure there are jobs that people can apply to.”

While some students said they are worried about finding a job or getting accepted into graduate school, others are looking at different options.

Alina Kordesch, a fourth-year in Japanese and linguistics, said she has decided to continue her education, but plans to do so overseas in Japan.

Although she won’t be looking for a job after graduation, she believes the cost of tuition and the availability of student loans will make it easier for students after graduation.

“I think the government should either be working on giving more scholarships or reducing tuition so students can leave school without being crushed under the weight of student debts,” Kordesch said.

One way students receive funding for education is through government sponsored Pell Grants, which according to data from the White House, help more than 8 million American students afford college expenses every year.

According to the White House, roughly two-thirds of college students take out loans to afford school with an average debt of $23,000. Virginia Layton, university director and bursar of OSU’s Office of Financial Services, said about 40 percent of students depend on student loans to help cover the costs of their OSU education. Ohio students overall had the seventh highest average debt in the U.S. at more than $28,600, according to findings from the Institute for College Access and Success, a nonprofit higher education research group.

The unemployment rate in the U.S. was at about 7.8 percent in September, a .3 percent decline from the 8.1 to 8.3 range maintained throughout the previous eight months of 2012, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The total number of unemployed people in the U.S. is 12.1 million. However, the underemployment rate was higher at 16.5 percent in September, according to a Gallup poll.

Romney leads Obama with 48 percent to 47 percent in registered voters, and with 51 percent to 46 percent in likely voters according to a Tuesday seven-day Gallup poll.

The School of Commu-nication is committed to the highest professional standards for the newspaper in order to guarantee the fullest educational benefits from The Lantern experience.

Cell from 1Athis system will also support the public safety radio frequencies,” said Charlie Clay, director of telecommunications and networking in the OCIO.

This includes “paging frequencies within the medical center complex,” Clay said.

The second phase of the project will target residence halls, “95 percent of outdoor campus space,” Ohio Stadium and the Schottenstein Center, according to an OCIO release. This phase is scheduled to be completed in June 2014.

The final phase of the project will go into 2015 and “would be the finishing up of anything that’s undone,” Starkoff said. This phase is evolving because the university is “always building new buildings and we’ll have new capacity reports” by the time the first two phases are complete.

In forecasting wireless demand against capac-ity, “We knew we were going to have a significant problem, so that’s why we went proactively to our vendors to build a solution,” Starkoff said.

The increasing number of wireless devices being used on campus will eventually lead to more frequent service problems, Starkoff said.

Cellphones can only communicate on a fixed number of channels and each cellphone operator is only allowed to use specific channels, Garrett said.

These channels are “more than enough most of the time,” Garrett said, but on football game days, the amount of people in and around the stadium “overwhelm(s) the system.”

If no solution is provided, service problems like this will become a daily occurrence within the next

two years, Starkoff said. “We need to get ahead of it before this becomes a real issue.”

Many students are all too familiar with experi-encing services outages.

Kaleb Eckles and Erika Frey, first-year students in biology said they have had problems using their cell phones on football Saturdays.

“You just can’t use your phone on game days, even if you’re not in the stadium just around campus,” Frey said.

Eckles agreed. “It’s basically impossible to meet up with

friends unless you make plans before,” he said.Eckles said he often wants to send cellphone

pictures of the game to friends and family, but is unable to because of the service outages.

A temporary game-day solution to over-crowded channels is for phone companies to set up temporary towers.

“AT&T has deployed a mobile unit, referred to as a ‘cell on wheels’ unit, to the vicinity of Ohio Stadium to help handle the volume of wireless communication that occurs during home football games,” said Holly Hollingsworth, senior public relations consultant for AT&T Services, Inc., in an email.

Verizon and Sprint did not respond to requests for comment.

Access to wireless service on campus is important to students, faculty, staff and visitors, Clay said.

“From the standpoint of faculty and staff it’s become very important,” Clay said. “They’re using their cellphones as their primary communication device.”

OSU alumnus looks to inspire

Indie duo to bring ‘Mondo’ sound to C-BusJOEL THOMASLantern reporterthomas.2437@osu.edu

With the words from an elderly woman, “You’re an electric guest of the universe,” a band name was born.

Electric Guest is scheduled to perform 7 p.m. Thursday at Newport Music Hall.

Getting its footing in Los Angeles in 2005, the duo is comprised of drummer Matthew Compton and lead vocalist Asa Taccone.

Compton said while the band’s name might seem outlandish, there’s a story behind it.

“In high school, Asa left California for the East Coast to go to a kind of camp or school to get his grades up. On the weekends he would go to a donut shop and there was always a kind of weird woman there that he would talk to,” Compton said. “One day, the woman told him, ‘You’re an electric guest of the universe,’ and he decided that comment (was) interest-ing enough to be the band name.”

Taccone found reason to use the name after meeting Compton through mutual friends.

“About eight years ago, I met Asa when I was going over to record with a roommate of his,” Compton said. “Asa was there and we just started recording. He later met the producer of our � rst album and from there we started working on it full time.”

The duo released its debut album “Mondo” in April.Since that release, Compton said Electric Guest’s

sound has evolved into something different.“Our band is really just kind of a pop band. We

have a lot of in� uences from indie and air pop,” Compton said. “Each album is kind of different, which we were scared of at � rst, but it has worked out nicely.”

The duo released its new EP “Electric Guest Holiday EP” Monday, which is only available at digital retailers, such as Amazon and iTunes, until Nov. 6, then slated to be released in 7” vinyl. Physical copies of the EP are available only at the band’s live shows, Compton said.

“Live is obviously different from recorded,” Compton said. “We don’t sample music a lot. A lot of the songs were meant to be played with acoustic and voice. We don’t have a lot of major stuff going on, but we make do. It’ll be a good show.”

Leah DiVito, a second-year in Chinese, said she’s been listening to Electric Guest for a while and plans to see the band live for the � rst time Thursday.

“I just got hooked on their hit (‘This Head I Hold’) from the album (‘Electric Guest Holiday EP’) which also has a really interesting video,” Divito said. “It got me to listen to the whole album, which is just as awesome. I have never seen them live, but I plan on going to their concert coming up here at the Newport. It’s sure to be a really fun, upbeat concert, and I’m ready to dance until forever.”

Grace Bowen, a second-year in pre-industrial design, said she is also excited for the show.

“I’m de� nitely planning on going to the show,” Bowen said. ”I haven’t seen them, but my friend did in Boston. She said the show was awesome and the lead singer is a great performer.”

Thursday won’t mark the � rst time Electric Guest has visited Columbus or played at the Newport.

“We’ve played at the Newport before. The crowd was awesome,” Compton said. “It’s kind of hard to judge how crowds are going to be when traveling across states, but this one will be good.”

Tickets are $15 in advance and $17 at the door, and are available at the Newport’s box of� ce and through Ticketmaster.

‘Blue Like Jazz’ hopes to go from NYT bestseller to big screen in C-BusLIZ YOUNGLantern reporteryoung.1693@osu.edu

Donald Miller published a book of essays titled “Blue Like Jazz: Nonreligious Thoughts on Christian Spirituality” in 2003. Mostly based on his time at Reed College, a liberal arts college in Oregon, his semi-autobiographical book came to be a New York Timesbestseller that sold more than 1 million copies.

Given that the book seemed to resonate well with readers, Miller’s story expanded its reach to � lm enthusiasts. Since the � lm adaptation “Blue Like Jazz’s” release in April with limited theater time, the movie has grossed nearly $600,000 in the U.S., according to Box Of� ce Mojo.

It is scheduled to be screened 7:30 p.m. Nov. 1 at AMC Lennox Town Center 24, provided that 78 tickets are reserved by Thursday. Live music from The Castros and art inspired by the book and � lm are also slated to be at the screening.

However, if the � lm does not reach the required number of tickets reserved, it will instead be screened for free at Kafe Kerouac, located at 2250 N. High St. If the threshold is not met, details will on the event at Kafe Kerouac will be released on The Castro’s website.

In the � lm adaptation, 19-year-old Don moves away from his Christian mother and church to attend Reed College. When he gets there, he discovers the students are more secular than he had expected and he joins an activist group in an attempt to � t in and � nd himself.

This isn’t the � rst time “Blue Like Jazz” fans have

been encouraged to show their support for the � lm. A campaign on the fundraising website Kickstarter was started after Miller wrote a blog post Sept. 16, 2010, that the � lm project was dead because there were no � nancial backers. One month after the Kickstarter was launched, and “Save Blue Like Jazz” raised 276 percent of its $125,000 goal, receiving nearly $346,000 from fans’ donations.

Director of the � lm Steve Taylor said he thinks “Blue Like Jazz” is a story many people can relate to.

“I read the book seven years ago and felt an immediate connection,” Taylor said in an email. “Like the main character in the movie, I grew up in a conservative Baptist environment, so when I arrived at Colorado University in Boulder for college I was quite unprepared for such a radically different environment.”

Some Ohio State students hadn’t heard of “Blue Like Jazz” but agreed the plot line sounds like a relat-able one.

“I can kind of relate to (the plot). It’s a Christian kid who goes off to college. I think that’s something that’s similar to me,” said Caleb Saunders, a third-year in Russian.

Other students said they think the � lm touching on religious versus secular views would make it interest-ing to watch.

“(I’d be interested in) seeing what’s reality, especially with the secular, views because that’s something that is a big debated topic between a majority of people,” said Nella Vuksanovich, a second-year in civil engineering.

Tickets can be reserved online at www.tugg.com/events/1780 for $10.

‘Blue Like Jazz’ is slated to screen Nov. 1 at AMC Lennox Town Center 24, provided that 78 tickets are reserved.

Columbus houses Halloween horror attractions, spooky entertainmentHALIE WILLIAMSSenior Lantern reporterwilliams.3948@osu.edu

As Halloween approaches, costumes are being perfected, pumpkins are being carved and Ohio State students are looking for more ways to celebrate. From organized haunted houses to haunted tours around town, Columbus offers several options for students to get a spooky � x.

Haunted housesOne of these options is the Scare-

A-Torium, running for a fourth year, which used to operate as Terror Park at Cooper Stadium until the stadium was closed.

Located at 6765 Dublin Center Drive in Dublin, Ohio, about 20 minutes away from OSU’s campus, the Scare-A-Torium is made up of two haunted houses, “Frightmore’s Manor” and “RIP Stinkers Funhouse and Lyncon Laboratory in 3-D.”

The combined haunted houses are a compilation of 55 scenes and a “collection of fears” that takes about 30 minutes to go through, said direc-tor of operations Kelly Collins.

“You’re gonna go through a sanitarium,” Collins said. “You’re also going to go through a hillbilly shack. There’s a morgue and there’s a cemetery.”

The Scare-A-Torium opened Sept.

28 and is scheduled to run Fridays and Saturdays from 7:30 p.m. to midnight and Sundays from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. through Nov. 3. Tickets are $20 for general admission.

For a cheaper, closer option, there is the Walking Dead Mansion, located at 625 E. Jenkins Ave., a little more than 15 minutes away from OSU’s campus.

The Walking Dead Mansion, a haunted house that gives it proceeds go to the Vassor Village Civic

Association, which is a charitable organization that supports the people of the Columbus Glass District, according to its website, has been in business for three years.

The house’s theme is based on a � ctional story of a 6-year-old girl who accidently burned her house down, killing both of her parents and sister, which led to the rumor that the family haunts the house.

Owner of the haunted house and an OSU alumnus Beau Bayliss said

although the story is completely � ctional, it is convincing and creates the atmosphere of a horror movie.

“It’s not actually true, but it’s pretty believable,” Bayliss said. “And it’s kind of like you’re in a horror movie, you’re the star of the show. All of the actors basically revolve around whatever guest is in the haunted house at the time and we limit groups to about two or three — that way everyone gets a great scare — versus letting large groups through.”

The Walking Dead Mansion opened for the season on Sunday and is slated to be open until Oct. 31, running on Friday and Saturday from 7:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., Sunday from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. and Oct. 31 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. General admission tickets are $5 and VIP tickets, which allow you to skip the general admis-sion line, are $7.

Haunted toursIf “staged” haunted houses with

actors aren’t enough, haunted tours can also be found around town.

The Columbus Landmarks Associ-ation runs annual ghost tours, which include walking, bus and tavern tours around Columbus. However, tickets for both the Haunted Historic Tavern Tours and the Halloween Lantern Walking Tours are sold out for the rest of the season.

‘Lost Songs’ poorly done, uninteresting

Taylor Swift burns bright with ‘Red’CAITLIN ESSIGAsst. arts editoressig.21@osu.edu

When Taylor Swift releases a new album, the world shakes a little. Her latest project, “Red,” dropped Monday, and within hours it was the top album on iTunes, and Twitter seemed to be exploding with lyrics from every song followed by #RED.

The album is a 16-song whirl-wind of post-country pop-rock that dabbles in heartbreak, joy and everything in between, mixed together as only Swift can do.

The album opens with “State of Grace,” serving as a slow, calm-before-the-storm track. Title track “Red” sweeps in and Swift sings about falling fast.

Each track leaves the listener craving the next lyric, the next note. Swift rarely slips up, and I was hard-pressed to � nd missteps on the album — although I wasn’t particularly fond of the swinging, sing-song feel of “Stay Stay Stay.”

“I Knew You Were Trouble” con� rms Swift’s departure from her country roots, infusing dubstep into one of the most infectious tracks on the album. “All Too Well” brings Swift back to a more mellow singer-songwriter feel, subsequently taking the listener back to moments long

gone, with the strum of an acous-tic guitar.

With “I Almost Do,” Swift perfectly sums up the struggle of losing and missing someone. “And I wish I could run to you / And I hope you know that / Every time I don’t / I almost do, I almost do,” she sings.

Other high points on the album come with the vintage rock-infused “Holy Ground,” and “Sad Beautiful Tragic,” which pierces the soul with its melan-choly honesty. The album’s � nal track, “Begin Again,” might be its best, although it’s so hard to choose just one.

As told through her music, Swift seems to be someone who never gives up on love, even when it gives up on her. And perhaps that’s the best thing about her, and certainly the best thing for her music. “Red” proves Swift is an unstoppable power-house with a golden touch.

Austin, Texas,’ art-rock elder statesmen ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead makes a lot of noise on its latest release “Lost Songs,” but to what end?

The band, often shortened to Trail of Dead, has been nothing if not prolific, putting out a new record or EP every few years, the last being 2011’s “Tao of the Dead.” But it’s grown less successful in keeping things fresh each time out, and has arguably been on the decline since 2005’s ambitious and strange album “Worlds Apart.”

“Lost Songs” does little to correct the course. The pummeling first track “Open Doors” borders on self-parody, while “Pinhole Cameras” smacks of early Sparta. “Up to Infinity” relies on the loud-quiet-loud formula so obviously that it sounds like a dozen other songs the band has already recorded.

The creeping synth flour-ishes on “Opera Obscura” and adds an interesting Italian horror soundtrack feel, before the band buries it in typical bombastic form. “Catatonic,” however, features some fine

riffing, recalling its true break-out album, 2002’s “Source Tags & Codes.”

This is a band of skilled players, and they’re good at what they do. The problem is the band refuses to deviate from the sound it’s cultivated in any meaningful way.

One would be hard-pressed to call this “bad music.” It’s at the very least dynamic, and nearly impossible to listen to passively. But it’s regrettably uninteresting in its sameness.

Trail of Dead has done these songs before, and better, on previous albums. In the end, to quote Shakespeare, “Lost Songs” is sadly “full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

ZACH LOWLantern reporterlow.65@osu.edu

Two years after its epic, Civil War-inspired album “The Monitor,” New Jersey’s Titus Andronicus returns with “Local Business,” pushing its trademark sound in new directions.

“It feels real wrong smiling,” sings frontman Patrick Stickles on the opening track “Ecce Homo.” And that might as well be the band’s mantra. Titus Andronicus has always been (for lack of a better word) angsty. But Stickles is such a smart lyricist, and the band so game to musically match his wit, that it’s carried well.

The record really kicks off with “Still Life With Hot Deuce and Silver Platter,” which rocks with the swagger of mid-period The Clash or The Thermals, complete with melodic harmonies.

The centerpiece of the album is the one-two punch of “Food Fight!” a 1950s-inspired tri� e (complete with harmonica), and “My Eating Disorder,” one of two token epics that pass the eight-minute mark.

In many ways, “Local Business” is the group’s most con� dent album yet. Sure, “(I Am The) Electric Man” just � at out doesn’t work, and “Titus

Andronicus vs. The Absurd Universe (3rd Round KO)” is two minutes of Stickles singing “I’m going insane” over and over again. Repetitive digressions like this seemed appropriate on earlier albums but here, it feels distractingly out of place.

But these are minor missteps. The late-in-the-album pair of “In a Big City” and “In a Small Body” are impressively fully-realized and are two of the � nest songs the band has produced yet.

No one is going to mistake this for an album by anyone other than Titus Andronicus. While it may be more immedi-ately accessible for new listen-ers, older fans might at � rst struggle to peel back the layers to � nd the band they know and love. But it’s worth the work because on “Local Business,” Titus Andronicus still gives us plenty to shout along to.

Lance Armstrong was more than just the world’s best cyclist. The U.S. cycling legend transcended his sport, and became a national icon and inspiration.

Those who witnessed his greatness might forever remem-ber it, but seven

years removed from his last Tour de France title, his achievements have been wiped away from the record books. On Monday, the International Cycling Union announced Armstrong was formally stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and banned from competi-tion for life for doping.

Armstrong, who also lost his endorsements, is far from the only one who loses in this ruling. The sport of cycling and its reputation, especially in the U.S., has been damaged.

In becoming the most decorated cyclist in Tour de France history , Armstrong inspired a new generation of cyclists in the U.S. and brought attention to the Tour that

it had never before attained in areas west of the Atlantic. Following this ruling, every young cyclist who grew up idolizing him has been told their idol is illegitimate.

It is easy to paint Armstrong as the bad guy, but the doping allegations against him are representative of the sport’s culture in his generation. Two additional winners since Armstrong, U.S. cyclist Floyd Landis in 2006 and Spanish cyclist Alberto Contador in 2010, had already been stripped of their titles for testing positive for performance-enhancing substances.

Armstrong had been defending his purity from doping for years, but in August, he decided to stop fighting allegations from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency. Further reports from the USADA have revealed evidence of his doping. The reputation of cycling had already taken a huge hit from the doping convictions against other stars including Landis and Contador, but Armstrong’s ban and stripped titles are a crushing blow.

The sport of cycling now lacks a superstar, and with the tarnished legacy of a man who is still the sport’s most recognizable face, the reputation of competitive, professional cycling is forever damaged.

Armstrong was more, however, than just a super-star face in his sport. He overcame testicular cancer to achieve athletic glory. Through his success, Armstrong became an inspiration to cancer survivors everywhere.

Many people fighting cancer had turned to Armstrong as a success story and a source of hope. Will those same people now question this entire premise?

Armstrong founded the Lance Armstrong Founda-tion in 1997, and in the past 15 years, his LIVES-TRONG nonprofit brand has raised more than $470 million for cancer research, according to the founda-tion’s website.

Amid the scandal, Armstrong stepped down as LIVESTRONG chairman, naming former vice chairman Jeff Garvey to be his successor, accord-ing to his website . But while Armstrong can be stripped of his athletic titles, his contributions to fighting cancer cannot simply be taken away. His athletic success might be considered illegitimate,

but it enabled him to make the massive fundraising impact he has.

That is why, even though Armstrong will be called a liar and a cheater by many, I still wear a yellow LIVES-TRONG bracelet on my wrist with pride. While the brace-lets became popular as a symbol of Armstrong’s journey from fighting cancer to achieving athletic success, they still carry meaning as a symbol of fighting a disease that affects millions of Americans. Had it not been for Armstrong’s rise to glory, LIVESTRONG never could have raised hundreds of millions of dollars, and the effort to fight cancer will continue even as Armstrong’s records fall.

Lance Armstrong stripped of titles, but effort to fight cancer will not be forgotten

Lance armstrong rides with his teammates in the peloton through el Dorado during the first stage of amgen tour of California, on May 16, 2010.

Razor scooters are toys, not forms of transportationWhenever someone passes me by on

campus riding a scooter I get a strange sensation in the pit of my stomach.

I’m not talking about a vehicle stereo-typical Italian men I imagine smoothly saying to female tourists, “Come ride my Vespa,” would ride. I am referring to the folding metal Razor scooters that were the hit from The Sharper Image in 2000.

Every time I see one, I just want to shout, “You are a toy! T-O-Y, TOY!” like Woody says to Buzz Lightyear in the Disney Pixar classic “Toy Story.”

I have a personal vendetta against those who ride their scooters around

campus. I have never been assaulted, abused or harmed by anyone with a Razor scooter. Nor did I ever fall off one as a kid and hurt myself.

I just consider the Razor scooter to be a toy that teens and pre-teens ride down to the nearest convenience store, then return home on while sipping on their fountain drink or ICEE.

There once was a time I loved the idea of pushing my own dead weight around on a collapsible piece of metal with two wheels attached.

I begged my parents to buy this magical transportation device most kids my age had and required very little balance. Truth be told, I was not the most coordinated individual as a child. Finally for my 10th birthday I received the scooter, and in that moment it was the coolest toy ever.

As the months passed the toy became dull and the realization came to me it was not a sufficient mode of transportation, especially when ridden over rough surfaces. Eventually it went into the bin of old toys and probably did not see the light of day for years.

Fast forward to me packing for college. Not once did I go through my old toys and have delusions of grandeur of bringing a toy to college like Andy in the third installment of “Toy Story” when he seriously considers taking Woody with him.

In my mind, the only logical thought process that would make them decide to ride one of these toys is, “I’m too lazy to walk around campus, too impatient to wait for a bus, not coordinated enough to ride a skate-board, a bike is much too large and cumbersome and they get stolen even when you lock them up.”

If this is your thought process then yes I completely understand why someone would scooter around campus.

Moral of the story children: the Razor scooter is not an appropriate form of transportation for a college student. Grow up, start walking, get a bike or ride the bus.

Guiton preparing alongside Miller for PSU

Men’s soccer falls to No. 2-ranked Zips

OSU, Oregon agree to home-and-home series in 2020, 2021

eVAN SPeYeRSenior Lantern reporterspeyer.10@osu.edu

no. 9 Ohio state travels to Penn state this weekend for a battle between the Big ten’s two teams ineligible for postseason play. Osu coach urban Meyer and Psu coach Bill O’Brien weighed in on the status of Buckeye quarterback Braxton Miller at the weekly Big ten football coaches teleconference.

Preparing for Miller TimeMiller was injured in the third quarter of last

saturday’s overtime win against Purdue, and Meyer said that the sophomore quarterback is still nursing a very sore neck.

Meyer confirmed that Miller has been cleared to practice, but said backup redshirt junior Kenny Guiton will be prepared to play.

“We’re going to have two ready,” said Meyer.nonetheless, O’Brien said his team is prepar-

ing for Osu’s typical offense, in which Miller is the team’s leading passer and rusher.

“Obviously, we’re preparing for Braxton Miller,” O’Brien said. “He’s one of the top players in the country, at the end of the day, that’s the guy that we have to prepare for.”

High praise for HeuermanBuckeye fans might be celebrating Jeff Heuerman

for his receiving skills right now — the sophomore tight end caught the game-tying two-point conversion last saturday — but Meyer has been impressed with a different aspect of Heuerman’s skill set.

“He might be the best blocking tight end that i’ve ever had in my head coaching career,” Meyer said.

Heuerman’s contributions might not jump off a stat sheet with six receptions this year for one touchdown, but Meyer said that Heuerman’s blocking has been extremely important this season.

“He’s giving us a component that we’ve never really had at that spot,” Meyer said. “He’s a point guy that can really block a defensive had . that’s really great to have.”

Better left unsaid?Michigan has not won a Big ten title since

2004, and coach Brady Hoke said that he uses the program’s conference championship drought to motivate his players every day.

“Let’s face it,” said the second-year Michigan coach. “Besides graduating and honoring your name, the expectations are to win Big ten Champi-onships. We embrace it and we are not going to shy away from it.”

Hoke’s approach is fundamentally different than that of nebraska coach Bo Pelini, who said he just tries to keep his team focused on getting better every day.

“i don’t talk about (winning the conference) daily,” Pelini said. “Our players understand what’s out there and what the challenges are.”

Michigan (5-2, 3-0 Big ten) and nebraska (5-2, 2-1 Big ten) meet this weekend, and whether the coaches want to talk about it or not, the game has major implications on the conference champion-ship picture.

to maintain its undefeated conference record, Michigan will have to do what it’s failed to do twice this season — win a night game away from home. the Wolverines were handled, 41-14, on a neutral field against alabama on sept. 1, and fell to notre dame in south Bend, ind., 13-6, three weeks later.

“We haven’t played our best football,” Hoke said. “We are going to need to this week.”

Chalk up another rematch for the Ohio state football team.almost two weeks after finalizing an agreement to play texas in the coming

years, the Buckeyes secured another home-and-home series with Oregon for the 2020 and 2021 seasons, the athletic department announced tuesday.

“Oregon has developed into one of the premier football programs in the (Football Bowl subdivision),” Osu athletic director Gene smith said in a released statement. “We are excited to add them to our future slate of games.”

the Buckeyes are slated to travel to eugene, Ore., for a sept. 12, 2020, contest before hosting Oregon on sept. 11, 2021, in Columbus.

ducks’ athletics director rob Mullens said Osu “provides another major conference opponent” for the future.

“the Pac-12 and Big ten have enjoyed a long-standing relationship, so the opportunity to add another Big ten opponent was attractive, Mullens said in a released statement. “We have two of the most passionate fan bases in college football and the atmosphere at both Ohio stadium and autzen stadium are among the best in college football.”

Oregon football coach Chip Kelly said he shares a similar mindset.“this will be a great opportunity for our fans to be a part of an intersectional

battle that has not taken place in eugene very often,” Kelly said in a released statement. “i’ve always been a proponent of playing the highest level of competi-tion possible. i’m a firm believer that you make yourself better when pushed by the level of your competition.”

While the teams have only met eight times, it’s been less than three years since Osu defeated the ducks in the 2010 rose Bowl, 26-17.

in fact, the Buckeyes are 8-0 against Oregon all-time.On Oct. 10, Osu and texas agreed to play in austin in 2022 and Columbus in

2023. the contest against the Longhorns is the first since the 2009 tostitos Fiesta Bowl, which saw texas top Osu, 24-21.

the Buckeyes announced the completion of their non-conference schedule for 2016 season tuesday after home games against tulsa on sept. 10 and Central Michigan on sept. 24 were finalized.

rounding out the Buckeyes’ non-conference schedule that year will be Bowling Green (sept. 3) and Oklahoma (sept. 17).

Ohio state men’s soccer came up short against no. 2-ranked akron, but the Buckeyes made the Zips work hard for the win.

the Buckeyes (6-9-1, 0-4-0 Big ten), coming off a 2-1 victory against Wright state, were undone by reinaldo Brenes’ 52nd-minute goal and lost to akron, 1-0, tuesday at Jesse Owens Memorial stadium. Brenes, a junior midfielder and defender, helped run the Zips’ (12-1-2, 5-0 MaC) current winning streak to nine games.

despite the loss, this game didn’t feel like a defeat for the team.

“We had a good game tonight,” said Osu coach John Bluem. “i think it was one of our best games of the year.”

after a scoreless first half, the Buckeyes came into the second half ready and took the game to the Zips with some early chances.

“We played really well defensively in the first half, we gave up very few chances,” said Osu junior captain sage Gardner. ”and once again in the second half we didn’t give up many chances, except for that one unlucky bounce.”

that one bounce was the deciding factor for the game — Brenes’ struck for akron for the only goal of the night.

although the Buckeyes have struggled defen-sively this season, Bluem said the team followed the game plan and did exactly what it intended.

“We weren’t sure we could score against them, although we had plenty of chances,” Bluem said.

Plenty of chances indeed — Osu took 14 shots in the game, and 10 of those came in the second half.

“i’m real, real happy with our team, it was a great effort by all of them,” Bluem said. “i’m honestly surprised we didn’t get a goal.”

the Zips came in to Jesse Owens Memorial stadium with only one loss in the season, and sophomore defender alex Bechtol said the Buckeyes tried their best to make that two.

“i mean, we came out and matched the second-ranked team in the country,” Bechtol said. “i think we could have won the game. (senior defender) Chris Gomez had two phenomenal chances, and if we had converted those we could have won.”

Bluem said he thinks this near miss will motivate his team throughout the end of the regular season and into the postseason.

“We know we can play with really good teams, i just hope we can move forward from here,” Bluem said.

“Our salvation could be the Big ten Champion-ship,” Bluem said. “We could go to that tournament, put three good games together and win it, and then go on to the nCaa tournament.”
