History is told in more places than just textbooks,

and with the combined efforts of the College of

the Arts, the Wexner Center and the Schottenstein Center,

viewers can be immersed in the past through this winter’s arts

schedule full of dance performances, exhibitions and films.

Through costume design, video, photographs and computer

animation programs, audiences can enjoy these history lessons

with a twist.

The creative avenues on campus blend familiar contempo-

rary productions with historically significant events to create

an ample list of artisti

c expression. Included in the following

pages is an overview of the offerings fro

m Ohio State’s three

primary art outlets, along with ticket and other essential

information.

The College of the Arts will feature a plethora of classical

performances by the School of Music, including Mozart’s “The

Magic Flute” and performances by OSU faculty members of

works by Chopin, Brahms and more. In the newly opened

OSU Urban Arts Space will be the exhibition “Midnight

Robbers: The Artists

of Notting Hill Carnival,” which will

demonstrate historical connections between the contempo-

rary Notting Hill Carnival in London, England, and the

original celebrations in Trinidad.

In honor of Spike Lee receiving the Wexner Prize in

February, the Wexner Center is s

howing a multitude of the

filmmaker’s work, including a month-long showing of his

documentary, “When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four

Acts,” about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Also, Grupo

Corpo, a Brazilian dance company, will blend its Afro-Brazil-

ian roots with modern dance in the company’s U.S. premiere,

“Breu.”

At the Schottenstein Center, Van Halen may have audiences

in a nostalgic state after touring for the first time in 22 years.

Bruce Springsteen will visit the Schottenstein after the release

of his 23rd album, “Magic.”

These and other events are listed below. For the complete

schedule of events this fall, visit e

As students in Sharon Collingwood’s section of Women’s Studies 110: Women, Culture and Society approach their classroom for the first time, they’ll likely notice its striking resemblance to Univer-sity Hall.

That they must approach the class from a pathway that juts out into an ocean, with waves crashing all around, is an obvious clue that it’s not the venerable old building. Trees that are rooted in the

first-floor entryway are another. Never mind the students’ own appear-

ances — potentially as anything from an average-looking human to a fire-breath-ing dragon, a golden robot or a giant multi-colored butterfly.

Collingwood’s “classroom” exists only in the online 3-D virtual world Second Life (secondlife.com), but reality gets lost quickly. While no students would forget they’re sitting in front of a computer screen using real-time voice communica-tion instead of inside a classroom, it’s easy

to become immersed in the environment.“I’m really enthusiastic about Second

Life. It changes the way I teach and the way I relate to my students,” said Colling-wood, whose pink-haired, roller-skating Second Life persona, or avatar, is called “Ellie Brewster.”

Collingwood has developed the course through an instructional grant awarded by the Office of Continuing Education.

With that money, she bought an “island”

When onCampus asked the Ohio State community who had the most unique job at the university, we couldn’t have

imagined the variety of nominations we’d receive. More than 20 careers were submitted for consid-eration, and the onCampus staff narrowed them down to a favorite four. Read on and discover what some of your fellow Buckeyes are up to, down to and getting themselves into on a daily basis.

Explosions in the name of science

As the lights went dim and the music started building to a crescendo, the audience began cheering and screaming for the star of the show to come out.

Waiting backstage for his cue, Dave Lohnes, also known as the Whiz Bang Science Show guy, got goosebumps for the first time. That moment, he realized, was exactly what it felt like to be a rock star.

Lohnes, the Web developer for the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, is both entertainer and information deliverer in his action-packed science shows. For the past four years he has been entertaining kids and adults at the Wayne County fair and OARDC open houses to promote the center and make learning about

science fun.“It has really taken over as my identity,” said

Lohnes, who was first hired by OARDC as a soybean geneticist. “I was in the bank and talking to a teller and she says, ‘You look really familiar. Do you go to St. Mary’s Church? Wait, you’re the Whiz Bang guy,’ and I’m like, yeah. A lot of kids know me that way too.”

Lohnes does 16 shows a year, mostly on weekends, and puts about 100 hours of his time into preparation and performing. His co-workers help him out, and his supervisor, Jim Holman, always gives him new ideas and attends a show or two every year.

The Whiz Bang Science Show began as a simple demonstration and magic show during OARDC’s Buy Ohio open house. Lohnes did DNA extractions using an onion, turned soybeans into chickens and made a card picked by an audience member appear in a box of tofu.

Since then, his production values have gone up. One of his more memorable demonstra-tions includes throwing a canister of liquid nitrogen into a bucket of warm water and detergent to create a tower of foam. The foam bubbles each have fog clouds in them, and he invites kids to pop them.

He explodes 2-liter soda bottles to demon-strate how liquid transforms to a gas, which always gets the crowd excited, and shoots toilet paper into the audience with a leaf blower to

Associate Professor Antoinette Errante was at her wits’

end on how to care for her brother Bruno, who arrived from

New York last summer. H

e was oxygen-deprived at birth and

is severely mentally retarded. He can’t sp

eak, but he under-

stands everything.

“According to standardized tests, he has th

e intelligence of

anywhere from a 36- to

48-month-old child, but people don’t

understand that he’s 3 years o

ld with 41 years of experience,”

said Errante, who is Bruno’s only family.

Still, Bruno needs constant attention because he can’t

communicate when he’s hungry or thirsty

. And in spite of her

Ph.D. and those of her colleagues willing to help, Errante

couldn’t figure out how to navigate the Ohio Department of

Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities to

learn

what services her brother was eligible for or how to access

them. If she couldn’t fig

ure it out, it

would affect her career in

the College of Education and Human Ecology, and more

importantly, Bruno’s life.

One of Errante’s former grad stu

dents, however, su

ggested

she talk to OLMR, the Ohio League for the Mentally Retarded,

and one of Ohio State’s Bucks for Charity

campaign designees.

“They were instrumental in telling me what my brother’s

rights and options were,” Errante said. “My brother’s options

have diminished, but OLMR is at th

e forefront of keeping

options open. Without them, my brother would stil

l be in a

nursing home.”

Most of th

e calls OLMR receives, according to its

Web site

(olmr.org), are those from people in crisis

mode. They have

exhausted all other means and avenues and are hoping OLMR

can give them a ray of hope.

It worked for Bruno, who is n

ow headed to a 23-person

group home run by Goodwill, where he will b

ecome part of

an invigorating environment more suited to his sp

ecial needs.

“The ultimate goal is t

o give your loved ones a high quality

of life and have them integrated into the community,” Errante

said. “But that’s d

ifferent for everyone.”

Coordinating a successfu

l

conference or workshop is a

lesson in detail-oriented

multitasking. Top prioritie

s include

choosing the overall program concept, date

and site. To assist

meeting planners in

navigating the maze of details, the Office of

Continuing Education’s conference

management services offer a few key

suggestions.

Planning

The first ste

p is setting goals and

objectives for the meeting or conference,

particularly the key messages to be commu-

nicated.

Next in the planning is to prepare a

budget, determine registration fees and

select the best medium to communicate the

message — such as speakers, printed

materials, distance learning, online, etc.

Communication

Inform the facility staff of all lo

gistics,

including the estimated number of

attendees, requested room set-up and

quantity of sleeping rooms. A conference

agenda also will assist the staff w

ith timing

of the sessions.

Conference coordinators should be

aware of facility tim

elines required for menu

selection, presentation needs and final

number of attendees.

Registration

Today’s conference coordinators are

making greater use of the Web for

registration purposes because of its

efficiency in cost and time.

CEd’s conferencing unit utilizes

PeopleWare software that allows confer-

ence participants to register and pay for

an event online. To combat identity theft,

CEd is upgrading its

registration system

to meet online security rules that take

effect September 2007.

“Our online registration is a great to

ol

that many participants u

se,” says Jennifer

Gilliland, CEd registration coordinator.

“Security is a very important priority,

especially with the new regulations set by

the university.”

An online registration system can also

provide services that can aid conference

planning, such as generating customiz-

able reports and conducting fee analysis.

Technology

Along with current online registra-

tion systems, electronic marketing and

videoconferencing, newer technology

trends include podcastin

g and digital

capturing.

Podcasting and Webinars allow

remote users to view and interact with a

real-time live feed carried online. Not

only does this allow for larger audi-

ences, but it also reduces travel costs.

Most importantly, Web-conferencing

services enable participants to collabo-

rate via application sharing of Power-

Point presentations, documents,

diagrams and images.

“Because of its sta

te-of-the-art

equipment, including Internet connec-

tions, CEd’s D

istance Learning Facility

can be used as a meeting room, a

computer training room or a video-

conferencing facility. It

gives CEd the

capability to send and receive national

conferences, deliver classes to

Ohio

State’s regional campuses and other

schools nationwide and host in

terna-

tional presentations,” adds Tony Basil,

director of CEd.

History is told in more places than just textbooks, and with the combined efforts of the College of

the Arts, the Wexner Center and the Schottenstein Center, viewers can be immersed in the past through this winter’s arts schedule full of dance performances, exhibitions and films. Through costume design, video, photographs and computer animation programs, audiences can enjoy these history lessons with a twist.

The creative avenues on campus blend familiar contempo-rary productions with historically significant events to create an ample list of artistic expression. Included in the following pages is an overview of the offerings from Ohio State’s three primary art outlets, along with ticket and other essential information.

The College of the Arts will feature a plethora of classical performances by the School of Music, including Mozart’s “The Magic Flute” and performances by OSU faculty members of works by Chopin, Brahms and more. In the newly opened OSU Urban Arts Space will be the exhibition “Midnight Robbers: The Artists of Notting Hill Carnival,” which will demonstrate historical connections between the contempo-rary Notting Hill Carnival in London, England, and the original celebrations in Trinidad.

In honor of Spike Lee receiving the Wexner Prize in February, the Wexner Center is showing a multitude of the filmmaker’s work, including a month-long showing of his documentary, “When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts,” about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Also, Grupo Corpo, a Brazilian dance company, will blend its Afro-Brazil-ian roots with modern dance in the company’s U.S. premiere, “Breu.”

At the Schottenstein Center, Van Halen may have audiences in a nostalgic state after touring for the first time in 22 years. Bruce Springsteen will visit the Schottenstein after the release of his 23rd album, “Magic.”

These and other events are listed below. For the complete schedule of events this fall, visit each organization’s Web sites and blogs — the College of the Arts blog is at osuarts.blogspot.com and the Wexner Center has one at wexarts.org/wexblog.
