Jason back here in the Delaware Hall gymnasium where the lady Cougars are at a daily practice before their next game. With another season underway we wanted to check in on the players. Among the standouts -- Freshman Sarah Yoder and Sophomore Katy Monnier. Both have 4.0 averages -- and solid skills on the court.

For Head Coach Randy Crites -- it's becoming second nature to lead this team. Following earlier stints as a high school coach, he's in his 17h season with the Lady Cougars and sees promise ahead this year.
Randy Crites, Women's Basketball Coach: We had some problems with free throws early but now we're up above 50% and the last four games we've been above 65%. We're getting better. These kids are working hard, trying to get better everyday
Another season for a team always striving for success.

In the midst of another basketball season -- the Columbus State Cougars are scoring on the court and in the classroom. It didn't take long for the men to make a mark. With just one loss in the first few weeks of the season they had achieved a national top-12 ranking in Division Two for junior colleges.

Pat Carlisle, Men's Basketball Coach: Team chemistry is a huge thing: Having the team on the same page and what that plan is. And it ultimately comes down to players have to make plays to win. To do that you have got to play hard.

Coach Carlisle has had an impressive run at Columbus State -- including 100 wins within five seasons. And his team qualified for the national tournament two years in a row including a finish as runners-up in the 2008 championship game. However, Carlisle stresses academic success alongside scoring success. Daily study tables before practice are mandatory.

Bernie Agnew, Freshman Guard, 3.3 GPA: The responsibility of grades is real important to emphasize for everybody to get their grades in basically so we can all prosper later in our careers

Glenn Cosey, Freshman Point Guard, 3.7 GPA: They're real big because sometimes you don't feel like doing homework, but when you get at study table you have no choice.

The focus pays off. During the autumn 2010 quarter the team's GPA averaged a 3.1 percent -- a new high. The team hasn't lost a player to academic ineligibility in four seasons. With another season off to a good start, these cougars plan to keep scoring big -- on the court - and off.

A new three-week training program for non-traditional students for the workforce is up and running. And there's no cost to students. The program trains unemployed - and underemployed - students for logistics industry jobs. They're mostly warehouse positions paying up to 15 dollars an hour. Classroom lectures are followed up with these on-site training sessions.

There's a period within the three-week program where the participants spend three days at one of the training sites and three days at another so they get exposure to different supply chain processes.

This recent session concluded with actual employers conducting mock job interviews for students so they could practice for the real thing.

You only have one chance to make a good first impression. And when you go into that interview that's a time to sell yourself and all of your strengths. A four-point-six million dollar federal grant is paying for the program.

Four decades after the event unfolded, "Kent State: A Requiem" examines one aspect of the tragedy.

Four students were killed on May 4th, 1970 when Ohio National Guard troops opened fire on students protesting the Vietnam War on campus. Columbus State theater students are the featured actors.

Written by by J. Gregory Payne, the play remembers the lives of the four lost students. Faculty member Frank Barnhart is the director.

Known as "The Day the War Came Home" -- the Kent State shootings changed the course of history.

Performances are all in the Nestor Hall Auditorium at 8 o'clock nightly this Wednesday through Saturday -- with a 3 p.m. matinee on Thursday. Admission is free.

High-tech learning is essential in most classes at any college and Columbus State is no exception. But in one unique class, students take a step back in time. Professor Robert Mergel's Surveying 100 class is where the present meets the past. The course is called Introduction to Geomatics. It's a complex title for the simple concept of surveying.
The course covers the history of surveying in Ohio and the United States in the 18th and 19th centuries. The college obtained reproduction vintage surveyors' compasses and chains similar to those used by colonial surveyors.
Dean Bortz, Engineering Technology Assistant Professor, says "The idea is that with these students it gives them an opportunity to taste and experience different types of technologies -- past and present.
Students, for their part, welcome the challenge.
Kyle Watrus, a mechanical engineering major, says, "Seeing the simple ways to do it can broaden your horizons to see different ways to solve simple problems. That's all engineering is -- finding solutions for different problems."
Electronic engineering major Kevin Robinson agrees. He says, "Sometimes, technology breaks so you might have to start with something that you used back in the day. Those are reliable. There are no batteries, there's nothing electronic about that instrument."
While many colleges offer surveying history courses, few offer hands-on field projects that truly bring it to life.
