Kirwan: [PowerPoint Presentation] My report this morning will be devoted primarily to the Academic Plan and its importance not only to Ohio State, but also to the State of Ohio and its citizens. First, however, I feel it is important to report briefly on the campus area disturbances in the neighborhood east of High Street following the Michigan football game. Throughout that night, some 125 fires were set, four automobiles were badly damaged or demolished, and many car windows were broken. One student was stabbed as he tried to get people to leave a party in his apartment. Thankfully, he is recovering. Eleven students were arrested on a variety of charges and several more may be arrested before the Columbus police close this matter.
