IN THE NEWS

Research News - 30-million-year-old amphibious beaver fossil is oldest ever found
A new analysis of a beaver anklebone fossil found in Montana suggests the evolution of semi-aquatic beavers may have occurred at least 7 million years earlier than previously thought and happened in North America rather than Eurasia.
In the study, Ohio State University evolutionary biologist Jonathan Calede<https://eeob.osu.edu/people/calede.1> describes the find as the oldest known amphibious beaver in the world and the oldest amphibious rodent in North America. He named the newly discovered species Microtheriomys articulaquaticus.
Calede's findings resulted from comparing measurements of the new species' anklebone to about 340 other rodent specimens to categorize how it moved around in its environment - which indicated this animal was a swimmer. The Montana-based bone was determined to be 30 million years old - the oldest previously identified semi-aquatic beaver lived in France 23 million years ago. READ THE FULL STORY > > >

Dr. Marianna Klochko to serve as campus ombudsperson for autumn 2022
The ombudsperson assists in grievances and solving problems for students, faculty, and staff
A student who encounters a problem related to his/her educational program has a variety of avenues available to seek resolution. (Note: the procedures for grade grievances are explicitly covered in the faculty rules<https://trustees.osu.edu/bylaws-and-rules/3335-8>). Typically, a student is advised to resolve any dispute, disagreement, or grievance as directly as possible, engaging with the person or persons most closely involved. The faculty and staff of the departments and colleges are available to work with students in this regard. If this step does not produce acceptable results, the student should follow a logical stepwise progression to address the academic concerns.
You should seek to resolve the grievance concerning a grade or academic practice by speaking first with the instructor or professor. Then, if necessary, take your case to the ombudsperson of the campus, Marianna Klochko (klochko.1 at osu.edu<mailto:klochko.1 at osu.edu>) or 740-725-6243, campus dean or associate dean, and to the provost, in that order. Specific procedures are outlined in Faculty Rule 3335-8-23.
The role of the Ombudsperson is to work as the campus mediator for faculty, staff and students' grievances. The ombudsperson will attempt to resolve students' grievances within the university community by supplementing, rather than replacing, other means for redress of grievances. The Ombudsperson intercedes when other attempts have failed to resolve concerns. The Ombudsperson cannot dispute grades or grading methodology or course requirements with instructors. (Grievance examples could include student life on campus or student/instructor conflicts). All matters discussed with the Ombudsperson are held in the strictest of confidence. The Ombudsperson office can also assist faculty and staff with questions/concerns with other university faculty or staff.
