Prestigious U. professor dies from cancer JEFFREY HAMMOND CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The flag on the Old Queen’s building will be flown at halfmast on Oct. 21 and 22 in honor of Carolyn Rovee-Collier.

Rovee-Collier, who died on Oct. 2, was named one of the 10 most influential female graduates of the Brown University. She also received the Howard Crosby Warren Medal during her career —the most prestigious award in American psychology, according to the Federation of Associations in Behavioral & Brain Sciences.

Rovee-Collier died after a long struggle with multiple sclerosis and breast cancer. As her health declined, the former Rutgers psychology professor would type out articles one finger at a time, said John Ackroff, an instructor in the Department of Psychology.

In addition to being a professor, Rovee-Collier was the director of the Rutgers Early Learning Project, or as the researchers called it, the “baby lab.”

Rovee-Collier, who earned her Ph.D. in experimental child psychology from Brown University, conducted research with her team, which delved into how the memory works and how infants learn. They produced work that overturned SEE PROFESSOR ON PAGE 4

Enrollment VP highlights changes in admissions ERIN PETENKO ASSOCIATE NEWS EDITOR

When Rutgers Enrollment Management vice president’s daughters reached their senior year of high school, he insisted they apply to 40 colleges to compare their admissions process.

But last week, Courtney McAnuff found himself receiving compliments about Rutgers from visiting administrators from the University of Michigan, who were impressed by the diversity of the student body.

McAnuff said the Rutgers application and admissions process has gone through considerable changes over the past few years, beginning with the integration of many different schools in the School of Arts and Sciences in 2006.

Previously, men and women could apply to separate schools within Rutgers, and multiple schools would offer the same major.

“We’ve been doing admissions since 1766,” he said.

Rutgers tries to include a diverse range of students, from rural to ur-

ban, in-state and out-of-state, and students from across the spectrum of financial needs. In fact, McAnuff said Rutgers was one of the few Association of American Universities institutions to commit 10 percent of its spaces to low-income students.

Diversity now includes international students as well.

Until four years ago, New Jersey would charge a penalty to Rutgers for every out-of-state student it enrolled, McAnuff said. Governor Chris Christie revoked this rule because he believed Rutgers should have more international focus.

International enrollment has shot up since then, he said.

The University now recruits candidates in 20 countries. They hire Rutgers students who speak a certain language to call families in the evening and speak in their native language about their experiences, he said.

Rutgers has expanded its recruitment process with online resources, he said. They purchase thousands of names of high school seniors each year from corporations like The College Board and ACT, Inc. SEE ADMISSIONS ON PAGE 5

NJ houses lack fire prevention devices KELSEY WEIDMANN STAFF WRITER

Thousands of Americans die each year from fire-related injuries, and hundreds more perish from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Despite this, only 65 percent of New Jersey homeowners reported having a smoke detector, a carbon monoxide detector and a fire extinguisher, according to a recent Rutgers-Eagleton Public Heath series poll.

According to the poll, 86 percent of New Jersey residents own a carbon

monoxide detector, 98 percent have a smoke detector and 75 percent own a fire extinguisher in their home.

Poll director David Redlawsk and his team called 871 New Jersey homes from July 28 to Aug. 5 using random dial and asked if the resident owned the three most important fire-preventive devices.

Redlawsk stressed the importance of having all three fire safety devices because they each serve different purposes.

“Smoke detectors detect fire of course, but don’t detect carbon mon-

oxide. Having a fire extinguisher gives you opportunity to put out a small fire before it gets bigger,” Redlawsk said.

Students should be aware of this issue just like everyone else because they are also at risk, said William Halperin, chair of the Department of Preventive Medicine and Community Health at New Jersey Medical School who also conducted the poll.

Education seems to be the biggest issue when it comes to fire and personal safety, Halperin said.

New Brunswick is one of nine municipalities in New Jersey that will receive a Safe Corridor grant from the Christie administration, according to a New Jersey Depar tment of Transpor tation press release.

The Christie administration announced yesterday that $6,426,743 in local aid grants will be distributed throughout Middlesex County for the advancement of street, safety and quality-of-life improvements, according to the press release.

“The Christie Administration understands the importance of Local Aid in helping counties and municiplaities to improve roades and bridges, without burdening local property taxpayers,” said NJDOT Commissioner Jamie Fox in the press release. “Maintaining New Jersey’s roads and bridges in a state of good repair is a priority for the Administration, and these grants help communities to do just that.”

The state legislature gives County Aid funds annually for the improvement of public roads and bridges, according to the press release.

“County Aid funds are apportioned based on population and centerline miles in each county, and each county selects the projects that receive funding,” according to the press release.

Middlesex County will receive $5.9 million in County Aid. NJDOT spokesperson Steve Schapiro said U.S. 1 is one of the routes designated for a Safe Corridor grant.

“The Safe Corridor grant program dates to 2003 and targets resources to 14 10-mile segments along highways that have a history of high crash rates,” according to the release. “Grants are supported by fines, which are doubled in designated Safe Corridors for a variety of moving violations, including speeding.”

The total amount of the grant is approximately $533,000, according to the release.

New Brunswick can use the grant for enforcement equipment, like police vehicles, radar equipment, computer hardware and software and to pay salaries, according to the release.

Part of the point of local aid is to take some of the burden off of local property taxpayers, Fox said in the press release.

“Targum” is an Aramaic term for “interpretation.”

The name for the University’s daily paper came to be after one of its founding members heard the term during a lecture by then-Rutgers President William H. Campbell. On Jan. 29, 1869, more than 140 years ago, the Targum — then a monthly publication, began to chronicle Rutgers history and has become a fixture in University tradition. The Targum began publishing daily in 1956 and gained independence from the University in 1980.

U. hosts 12th biannual biomaterials science symposium NIKHILESH DE STAFF WRITER

Researchers at the University can now reach out to other top-tier institutions and researchers through the Big Ten, something that was not possible in previous years, said Rutgers President Rober t L. Barchi.

The University is hosting the “12th New Jersey Symposium on Biomaterials Sciences” for two days, starting yesterday. This conference is designed to create collaboration between researchers and industry members.

Barchi opened the symposium by remarking about how researchers can develop cooperative relationships with other researchers and businesses.

The symposium, which is held every other year, unites researchers and industry members from different parts of the world to mutually benefit the population, said John Bushby, chief operating officer for the New Jersey Center for Biomaterials.

David Kimball, associate vice president for the Of fice of Translational Sciences, said his depar tment tries to relate discoveries in the general sciences with applications in the commercial market.

This helps the University gain better grants by improving the data they have, said Kimball, a research professor in the Depar tment of Medicinal Chemistr y. The OTS’ goal is to tie academic research with therapeutic value through interdisciplinar y groups.

The symposium is a good platform to connect academic discoveries with industrial projects in the biomedical field, said Vinod Damodaran, a post-doctoral associate at the University. It allows participants to share and learn concurrent research in their respective fields.

PROFESSOR Rovee-Collier, husband held Friday ‘unwind’ sessions for graduate students at their farm CONTINUED FROM FRONT

BLITHDALE BEAT The Blithedale Romance is set to preview its EP “Wanderer” this Saturday in

previously held ideas on the subject and influenced the entire field, said Lewis Lipsitt, her mentor from her days at Brown University.

Her contributions to the field of child psychology earned her and her team numerous accolades, including a James McKeen Cattell Fund Fellowship, the Award for Distinguished Scientific Contributions to Child Development from the Society for Research in Child Development and a Medal for Distinguished Achievement from the graduate school at Brown University.

Rovee-Collier began her studies at Louisiana State University, graduating in three years cum laude and with college honors.

For two summers, she attended the Jackson Lab College Training Program in Bar Harbor, Maine, where she studied the cognitive abilities of newborn puppies.

Christopher Rovee, her son, said

this experience prepared her for work with infant memory.

She went on to study at Brown University, which was an all-male graduate institution at the time.

The move to Brown meant overcoming the New England winters and working with colleagues who were not used to her southern accent, according to The Brown Daily Herald.

It was during this time that Rovee-Collier began producing the work that changed many longheld beliefs in child psychology.

According to the FABBS Foundation, she discovered mobile conjugate reinforcement, a procedure whereby an infant learns that the movement of a ribbon tied to its leg controls the movement of a mobile.

The idea that very young children can form memories from the world around them is “a truism now, but was groundbreaking at the time,” Lipsitt said.

It took four years for Rovee-Collier to find a publisher for her research, which overturned claims that infants could not learn until five or six months of age, according to The Brown Daily Herald.

After her time at Brown, she taught at Trenton State College for five years before coming to Rutgers, according to the Rutgers Early Learning Project website.

While serving as director of the Rutgers Early Learning Project, Rovee-Collier built a program that continued her research on childhood development.

Rachel Barr, an associate professor of psychology at Georgetown University, said she and her students traveled thousands of miles up and down New Jersey to work with infants.

Barr, who was also a research assistant in the baby lab from 1998 to 2001, said one of her first jobs was learning every road within a 50-mile radius of Rutgers before the GPS was invented.

Barr said despite the team’s work in research and publishing, they were more like a family than a group of scientists.

Rovee-Collier and her husband George Collier, also a professor in the Department of Psychology at Rutgers, would hold Friday afternoon “unwind” sessions for the graduate students at their farm.

“She had an unbelievable gift for bringing people together,” Barr said.

Rovee-Collier was someone who current and former students and researchers all connected around, Barr said.

She also set an example for female students to pave their own paths through the sometimes male-dominated world of science. Barr recalled practicing for hours before ever y presentation and dealing with “bizarre dress codes.” Rovee-Collier taught them to see challenges instead of barriers and trained them to be ambitious.

Through her battles with multiple sclerosis and breast cancer, Rovee-Collier still continued to instruct and conduct research at the National Institutes of Health until last year.

“She loved Rutgers, the students and cheering for the women’s basketball team,” Christopher Rovee said. “She didn’t seem like a spirit you could ever quench.”

Additionally, they use these names to send targeted recruitment emails to possible candidates.

“Depending on what we’re after — we could look for Douglass College … by purchasing the names of high school seniors that indicated interest in women’s colleges,” he said.

What the University no longer does is send physical brochures or pamphlets to student’s homes. Each brochure costs $2,

and sending it gives Rutgers no indication of whether the student will apply.

Instead, they can now study the read rates on emails to see whether students are attracted to their message, he said. They put the money saved from brochures into digital communication.

For eighth, ninth and 10th graders, the Rutgers Future website compares high school track records with the Rutgers admissions profile to give them an idea of how they stack up.

DEVICES NJ residents with higher incomes are much more likely to have all three fire safety devices CONTINUED FROM FRONT

“For example, I routinely ask my medical students what the source of their hot water is. Is it gas, is it electric, what is it? And a lot of people just don’t know,” he said.

Everyone should be aware of who is responsible for meeting the safety requirements of a building, Halperin said, because it varies.

In residence halls, the University is responsible for installing the proper devices. In rental houses and apartments, landlords are in charge, he said.

“There are people [landlords] who are professional about this, and people who just have extra space to rent out and don’t even know the hazards,” Halperin said.

Overall, Halperin values the findings because of their usefulness in determining how safe homes really are. He was especially pleased to see the high rates of smoke detectors in homes, though disappointed to see the lower rates of carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers.

“Bottom line is, essentially 100 percent of people need access to these devices, and we’re not there yet,” Halperin said.

The fact that virtually every home has a smoke detector suggests that this has become a standard for households, Redlawsk said, though he did notice an economic difference in the data.

The poll revealed that New Jersey residents who are better off economically are much more

Another website lists different summer programs for youths at Rutgers that could potentially sell students on the school, he said.

“The goal is to get campus visits because they are highly correlated with students applying,” he said.

Once they are interested, they have to go through the process of applying through Rutgers’ special application platform. McAnuff said the application has followed the same general template since 2005.

It switched to a self-reported GPA system in 2009 to save money on administration of paper transcripts, he said. Since then, University of Nebraska, University of Florida, Florida State University and Northern Illinois University have followed Rutgers’ lead.

They also have used the same essay question since 2007, which asks

likely to have all three of the devices in their homes than those who are lower on the economic scale, Redlawsk said.

Ruth Mandel, director of the Eagleton Institute of Politics, immediately considered her own life and whether she complied with the fire safety recommendations upon hearing the poll results.

“I know that in my own case, I passed the test with two out of the three. I’m about to send [the poll] information to my adult daughter and her family because I would like to make sure they have all three,” Mandel said.

Mandel hopes that individuals will also see the statistics and take the opportunity to reflect on whether they have taken the right precautions so far and if not, how they can prepare to take the next step in their personal safety lives.

“No matter where you live, having smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors and fire extinguishers is really important,” Redlawsk said.

about students’ contribution to the diversity of the University.

“We use it to try to find out things about the prospective student,” he said. “Maybe they didn’t have the background to go to Honduras. Maybe they had what we call a negative family contribution, where they have to work to support their family.”

He refers to education the “only equating system in the world.”

Tram Huynh, a School of Arts and Sciences senior, said she used the online application but remembers receiving paper pamphlets in the mail.

As a transfer student, she did not go through the typical transcript or essay process, but she did visit campus to cement her decision.

“The application was pretty straightforward,” she said.

She did take advantage of some technology – njtransfer.org

helped her figure out what credits would transfer from Atlantic Cape Community College.

Kiran Arshi, a School of Arts and Sciences first-year student, said she was nervous inputting her grades to the application in case she made a mistake.

“I didn’t really understand the purpose, because I was going to give them my transcript anyway [later],” she said.

She applied early action, since her decision was easy — her brother and everyone else she knows went to Rutgers.

McAnuff said that during the football game, he was happy to see four- and five-year-olds wearing Rutgers shirts.

“That’s brand ecstasy that they see themselves there and understand the greatness,” he said.

Supreme Court approves gay marriage in five more states WASHINGTON - The U.S. Supreme Court declined yesterday to decide once and for all whether states can ban gay marriage, a surprising move that will allow gay men and women to get married in five additional states, with more likely to follow quickly.

On the first day of its new term, the high court without comment rejected appeals in cases involving five states — Virginia, Oklahoma, Utah, Wisconsin and Indiana — that had prohibited gay marriage, leaving intact lower court rulings striking down those bans.

As a result, the number of states permitting gay marriage would jump from 19 to 24, likely soon to be followed by six more states that are bound by the regional federal appeals cour t rulings that had struck down other bans. That would leave another 20 states that prohibit same-sex marriage.

But the move by the nine justices to sidestep the contentious issue means there will be no imminent national ruling on the matter, with litigation likely to continue in states with bans.

“Any time same-sex couples are extended marriage equality is something to celebrate, and today is a joyous day for thousands of couples across America who will immediately feel the impact of today’s Supreme Court action,” said Chad Griffin, president of the gay rights group Human Rights Campaign.

Evan Wolfson, who heads the group Freedom to Marr y, said while yesterday’s action provided “a bright green light” to gay marriage in more states, gay rights advocates still want the high court to inter vene and provide a definitive ruling covering all 50 states. “The Supreme Court should bring the coun-

tr y to a nationwide resolution,” Wolfson said.

Officials in states whose bans were overturned had also wanted the high court to decide the matter. The justices could take up a future case, but their move yesterday could send a strong signal to lower court judges that rulings striking down gay marriage bans are consistent with the U.S. Constitution.

Gay couples in affected states are expected to seek marriage licenses immediately because the high court’s action means the appeals court’s rulings are no longer on hold. Virginia began issuing licenses within hours of the court’s action.

The other states that are likely to be imminently affected are North Carolina, West Virginia, South Carolina, Wyoming, Kansas and Colorado.

The court did not explain why it was not taking up the issue. Among the possibilities are that a majority believes it would be premature to inter vene and wants to see more lower court action, or that on this deeply polarized court neither the liberals nor the conser vatives could be certain of how the issue would be resolved and did not want to risk forcing a national precedent now.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who has officiated at a same-sex wedding, said last month that for the justices there is “no need for us to rush” unless a split emerges in the regional federal appeals courts and one of them decides to uphold a state ban on gay marriage.

In order for the Supreme Court to hear a case, at least four of the nine justices must vote to hear it.

Most legal experts had believed the justices would want to weigh in on a question of nation-

al importance that focuses on whether the U.S. Constitution’s guarantee of equal treatment under the law means gay marriage bans were unlawful.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said that “there may ultimately be a role for the Supreme Court to play” on gay marriage and that the justices must make that call.

Earnest emphasized that President Barack Obama‘s view is that “it’s wrong to prevent samesex couples who are in loving, committed relationships and want to marr y from doing so.”

Opponents of gay marriage said they would continue to defend state bans in court. “The people should decide this issue, not the courts,” said Byron Babione, a lawyer with the conservative Alliance Defending Freedom.

In June 2013, the justices ruled 5-4 to strike down a key part of a federal law called the Defense of Marriage Act that had restricted the definition of marriage to heterosexual couples for the purpose of federal government benefits.

But in a separate case decided that day, the justices also sidestepped the broader question of whether state bans violated the Constitution, but allowed gay marriage in California.

The momentum within America‘s courts in favor of gay marriage reflects a sea-change in public opinion in the past decade, with polls showing a steady increase in support. It was only as recently as 2004 that Massachusetts became the first state to allow gay marriage following a state court ruling.

State officials defending their bans say the Constitution does not dictate how states should define marriage and that there is no deeply rooted legal tradition that supports a right to gay marriage.

When the nine justices ascended their mahogany bench at 10 a.m., they betrayed no concern for the possible uncertainty or confusion arising from their orders rejecting the samesex marriage cases. Proceeding with the usual practice, Chief Justice John Roberts announced only that “orders have been duly entered and certified” and were on file with the clerk’s office.

The justices then heard an hour of arguments in a case involving a police search.

Students to gain unlimited cloud storage for Google Drive

Rutgers students have access to ScarletApps, which uses the format for Google Apps. Unlimited storage for Google Drive will soon be rolled out to universities that use Google’s “Apps for Education” program. EDWIN GANO / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

TYLER GOLD STAFF WRITER

Google announced Sept. 30 that it will be providing students with unlimited Google Drive storage for files and documents and will also supply enhanced administrative controls to the Google Apps. This proves a highly useful platform, education-wise.

Rutgers gives all student access to ScarletApps, an email and calendar solution that uses Google’s Apps for educational programs. The service gives students an individual email account that includes a Rutgers-specific version of popular Google apps like Gmail, Google Drive, Google Calendar and Google Talk.

As of now, the Google Drive application provides all students a hearty 30 gigabytes of storage. In comparison, the Microsoft OneDrive account contains 15 GB, and the Dropbox on the Sakai site only starts with 2 GB. Unlimited storage will soon begin rolling out to schools that use Google’s Apps for education programs, including Rutgers, according to a Google blog post.

Students will not have to pay for the storage increase. The new initiative includes unlimited storage that allows for the uploading of individual files up to a colossal five terabytes. That’s more than 5,000 GB for one file.

Google Apps Vault will also become available to people using it for educational purposes. The Vault provides search features and file auditing, which tracks updates and activity on files.

According to a Google blog post, the new initiative will be made available in “the coming weeks.”

Google made sure to tout the strength of its file encryption in their post, reminding readers that “every file uploaded to Google Drive is encrypted, not only from your device to Google and in transit between Google data centers, but also at rest on Google servers as always, the data that schools and students put into our systems is theirs,” the post reads.

Projects like this are increasingly important as technology improves at an ever-accelerating rate. Many classes at Rutgers have begun using virtual methods instead of paper, and Google Drive has become a popular tool for students to collaborate on assignments regardless of their location.

The School of Communication and Information, for instance, offers hybrid courses where students participate on eCollege or Sakai. In one writer’s section of “Introduction to Organizational Management and Information Systems,” the professor actually made a Google Drive folder so the entire class could collaborate.

Google’s options so far seem to be working much better than the Rutgers-built Sakai and eCollege, which are inconsistent at best.

As Rutgers fully replaces its own email-platforms like Eden with packaged software provided by companies like Google, it should also consider replacing eCollege and Sakai with packaged solutions.

There starts out consensual, but then becomes unwanted. It are rules to the project: She has to carry it around with includes sex without any consent at all.

Rutgers University has made it clear both at the dent. But when two more classmates told her that the accused rapist had also assaulted them, they decided to administrative level and from the general attitude of press charges.

Islamophobia fueled by misleading mainstream media #REALTALK SARA ZAYED

S

ince I came to Rutgers, I have used The Daily Targum (and seen it used) several times as a platform to discuss Islam, Muslims, racism and similar topics. I do so once again because I felt our space was threatened and invaded last week when Brooke Goldstein, an avid Islamophobe, was invited to Rutgers to discuss ISIS and the Middle East. I attended her talk and listened to it in its entirety. At the time, her stereotyping, blatant racism and name calling in addressing upset Muslim students and her tokenization of minorities outraged me. Later, when I had a chance to calm down, I simply felt exhausted.

My fellow Muslims and I are exhausted of being put on the defensive all the time. We are exhausted of experiencing hate crimes and outright discrimination for practicing our faith peacefully. We are exhausted of constantly having to defend our religion at Rutgers, a place that claims to be full of active learners.

NFL defensive back Husain Abdullah was penalized for dropping to his knees in prayer during a game. Although the NFL later admitted to its mistake, Christian players who have marked their touchdowns with signs of deference in the past were not penalized. Author Reza Aslan was inter viewed on CNN about whether

Islam is a “violent” religion or not. Bill Maher discussed the same loaded question with a panel of speakers, none of which were Muslim. And although it was comforting to watch Ben Affleck passionately defend Muslims, it was simultaneously disheartening to witness how actual Muslim voices are discounted — not just on that one occasion, but again, and again and again. I have written countless pieces about Islam relative to politics, women, 9/11, terrorism — the list goes on. My contributions, however, are paltr y

tively thriving). Even more infuriating is that such discussions deflect attention away from all the injustices women suffer here at home. My faith has never oppressed me. My status as a woman in America, however, has. But who wants to hear that? Goldstein declared her devotion to protecting and helping Muslim women and children, but when I, a Muslim woman, pointed out problematic discrepancies in such a stance, she said she could not have a conversation with me.

The irony here is obvious, and it runs so

“My fellow Muslims and I are exhausted of being put on the defensive all the time. We are exhausted of experiencing hate crimes and outright discrimination for practicing our faith peacefully. We are exhausted of constantly having to explain ourselves and our religion at Rutgers, a place that claims to be full of active learners.” compared to those of millions of Muslims around the world. I am just a college student — my late father devoted his life to educating people about Islam, and I know there are countless more like him.

The trend, however, remains the same. People want to hear about Muslims from so-called “experts” who in reality have visited Saudi Arabia once and designated themselves authorities on the subject. They want to listen to panels on CNN about Muslim women without asking for input from Muslim women themselves (who, by the way, are posi-

deep to the discourse in the West about Islam that one can see how it is oppressive to Muslims.

Muslims should not have to declare themselves moderate or make constant apologies for crimes they did not commit. They should not have to say “I am not affiliated with any mosque,” as Dr. Qanta Ahmed did on Fox News this past week, when mosques are centers of worship and introspection. Clerics around the world have denounced ISIS, plenty of Muslims have expressed their horror and disgust — but to no avail. In Lon-

don, hate crimes against Muslims have soared 65 percent in a year, and doubtless the trends are similar in countless other locations.

Furthermore, it is incredibly dishonest to divorce Western imperialism from the shock waves in the Middle East. Interventionist politics are not helpful. They do real, tangible damage to communities and whole countries. One only has to look at central Africa to comprehend the truth of that. We call it terrorism when people of color do heinous things that aren’t aligned with Western interests, but “necessar y, tough decisions” when they are. Killing should be condemned regardless of whether ISIS does it in Syria or the United States does it in Iraq.

Turn away from mainstream media, from these biased, unidirectional, agenda-driven perspectives and listen to Muslims, who will never reject anyone who asks about Islam. The Muslim Student Association here at Rutgers holds an Islamic Awareness Week ever y year and passes out food and prizes in exchange for sincere questions about Islam. There are no excuses for not knowing anymore when resources are boundless and available here and now. Keep in mind that Islamophobia is profitable, and people know this and utilize it, so always question your sources. And I end on that note: Always question your sources.

Neither man nor woman: life as a non-binary student NOTHING, IF NOT CRITICAL PHILIP WYTHE

O

n the bottom of my column, I use the pronoun “they.” This isn’t a typo, despite what many writers at The Guardian and Telegraph assumed as they repor ted on my trigger warning activism. Indeed, I do not identify as a man, the gender I was assigned at bir th. I identify as a non-binar y student.

I have always been non-binary, and, as far as I know, always will be.

I knew when I was growing up that I didn’t feel like a boy. The definition never fit me, and it felt too burdensome over the years.

From a young age, I was attracted to femininity in ways that others never understood. I admired dolls and other feminine-gendered toys as a child. I would sashay my pajama tops back and forth, pretending I was a beautiful woman curtseying in her dress. I would position my feet on tip toes, arching my heels, as if I was a businesswoman shuffling in the busy streets of New York.

Something about the feminine was engaging to me. For all my life, it eluded me. I was forced to repress it, erase it inside of me. I was told by the society surrounding me that it was not OK to enjoy feminine gender expressions — that to be feminine was, in essence, to be inferior — to be an object.

I shied away from my gender. I praised the masculine and hid my subconscious desires to perform my gender.

It has taken 20 years to break down the internal barriers I created for myself.

I began to realize in high school that my inner desire for gender nonconformity was expressing itself in odd ways. Since I was 13, I began wearing my blond hair long and wavy. I began spending less and less time with men in high school, often confiding in women and non-binary people instead.

I began to fantasize about changing the entire shape and anatomy of my growing body, as if I could alter myself into a female form with one deft movement. Subtly, my gender identity began to expose itself in se-

locks, and see neither a man nor a woman, but something else altogether.

I would see my reflection at night in the windows of the EE bus, and I would see a gender and body that clashed with my male form.

I would attend class, hearing students and professors wrongly refer to me as “he.”

I would feel alienated and confused, reinforcing my masculinity. But I would secretly savor the moment a pronoun slipped up and someone referred to me by that hidden faux pas, “she.”

It wasn’t until I had turned 19 that I re-

“Over time, I’ve learned to deal with all of this — not through selfgrowth, but through the sheer need to survive and keep moving on. After all, life is too short to care what narrow-minded people think, and my mental and physical safety is too dear to surround myself with hostile people with invasive demands.” cret ways, known only to myself.

Perhaps, to the cisgender reader, this might seem completely natural for an adolescent boy — however, for a transgender person, these were more than moments of self-experimentation. It was a questioning of who I was on the gender spectrum, shaking the foundations of masculinity that I had internalized and regurgitated from a young age.

It wasn’t until college — and the Internet — that I began to realize that I was not the male I thought I was. A voice spoke inside of me, denying the masculine gender role I was expected to adhere to.

I would look at myself in the morning, with my blond bed head shuffled in dainty

alized, perhaps, there was an alternative to being male. Through my own independent research on the Internet, I began understanding transgender identities more. I slowly realized that my own gender expression was stuck in a period of fluidity between being both male and female. I was, in other words, neither, and somehow both: stuck in constant flux within the gender binary.

It was then that I finally realized: I am a non-binary person.

Perhaps some of my readers won’t understand. They might deny the very existence of non-binary identification. They might ask silly questions — “How can you identify as non-binary, if you still use the name Phil?”

Or perhaps, “Why would someone appear so masculine while identifying outside the gender binary?”

Or, a personal favorite of mine, once asked at a party, “Do you feel weird about your genitals?”

I’ve experienced a cocktail of emotions from these kinds of invasive and personal questions. I’ve felt fear. I’ve felt stress. I’ve felt anger, confusion and isolation. I’ve felt depression. I’ve felt attacked, as if I had an obligation to prove myself to cisgender students. And I’ve felt like an outlier, forced to hide themselves away from students, professors and staff members.

Yet, over time, I’ve learned to deal with all of this — not through selfgrowth, but through the sheer need to sur vive and keep moving on. After all, life is too shor t to care what narrow-minded people think, and my mental and physical safety is too dear to surround myself with hostile people with invasive demands. In the end, I’ve found severing ties is often the better solution over attempting to repair unsalvageable relationships.

Over time, I realized something important when I came out of the closet: I am my own person, with my own ability to understand my gender identity. I need no third party to “verify” my experiences. I am myself, a non-binary, transgender, assigned-male-at-birth student. And that is something no one can take away from me no matter how hard they try.

Junior forward J.P. Correa has struggled to find consistent scoring opportunities after scoring two goals against Wisconsin in a 3-2 overtime victory Sept. 12. The forward has not scored in the four games since and will likely be heavily relied upon to produce against Princeton in an important road game. EDWIN GANO / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

REBOUND RU enters Princeton winless in its last four games, only scoring one goal CONTINUED FROM BACK Unfortunately, Rutgers won’t have a week to address all of its flaws when they play Princeton Tuesday night on the road.

The Knights enter the in-state rivalry game winless in their last four games, managing to score just one goal.

The Tigers (3-3-2) will also be on low rest entering the game after suffering a 2-1 overtime loss Saturday at home to Dartmouth.

Despite having a the edge in the

all-time series (26-21-9), Princeton has lost its last two meetings to Rutgers, including a tight 3-2 defeat at Yurcak Field last year where three penalty kicks were awarded.

But the Knights no longer have Tiger-slaying midfielder Mael Corboz, who scored two goals against the Princeton in each of the last two years. Corboz transferred to Maryland after the season.

With Rutgers’ struggles as of late to find the back of the net and a poor showing against Penn State, where the team failed to register a shot until the 55th minute of the second half, the Knights will need to have a quicker start to the game.

“Definitely, in the first half, we didn’t seem like we were ready to play, and that kind of dictated the play for a lot of the game,” sophomore midfielder Erik Sa said following the

Penn State game. “And that was, I get the second ball. Sometimes, we think, the biggest thing — us not real- need to try to play a little bit.”

For all the negatives the Knights ly coming out to play right away.”

Even when the Knights start- have gone through this season, one ed to find their footing, they never positive to pull from their last game quite found a way to consistently was the return of junior defender Drew Morgan. build in possesThe defension.

“We didn’t seem like we sive captain There were made an appearsome good were ready to play in the ance around the spurts in the second half, but first half. That was ... the 30-minute mark of the first half it never turned biggest thing — us not and played the into anything going forward and really coming out to play. ” rest of the game.

WIDEOUT Turzilli unofficially played 43 snaps against Michigan, third-most on RU’s offense CONTINUED FROM BACK has seen his playing time steadily increase. An unofficial count had him playing 43 snaps Saturday — the third-most on Rutgers’ offense.

“It took me a while to get the offense down,” Turzilli said, “but I feel good about it now.”

Turzilli now has the second-most receiving yards on the team behind junior Leonte Carroo with 276, averaging 46 yards per catch. That’s more than half of Turzilli’s total yardage in three years at Kansas under former head coaches Turner Gill and Charlie Weis.

So why is Turzilli’s move to Piscataway working out so well?

It is no secret to Rutgers head coach Kyle Flood, who called the soft-spoken receiver an egoless player.

“He came here with no agenda other than wanting to be a part of a successful football team and to fit in however he could,” Flood said. “I think he’s an excellent example for the younger players in our program in terms of how hard he works, and

he has added much-needed depth to a position we needed to add depth to.

Andrew is talented, but he’s a better person than he is a football player.” *** Nova earned Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week, while redshirt freshman Kemoko Turay garnered Big Ten Special Teams Player of the Week, the league announced Monday.

It is the first time a Rutgers player has won either award. Senior safety Johnathan Aiken became the first Knight to capture a conference honor with Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week after the season opener against Washington State.

Nova threw for a career-high 404 yards against Michigan, while Turay

blocked his third kick of the season late in the fourth quarter to preserve Rutgers’ 26-24 win. *** The Knights’ next game at Ohio State on Oct. 18 will air on either ABC or ESPN, Rutgers announced. The broadcast will be determined after this weekend’s games, when the Knights have a bye.

The times of upcoming games against Nebraska, Indiana, Michigan State and Maryland are still to be announced.

Although Morgan understandably showed some rust in his first game back from a head injur y suf fered Sept. 12, the Atlanta, Georgia, native should give the Knights more stability on defense.

“It was great to be back out there,” Morgan said following the Penn State game. “… I had one big hit to my head in the ver y beginning, but I was fine after that. I knew I would be all right and felt good to be back out there playing with the guys.

[It] obviously sucks to lose, but hopefully, we can learn from it and grow from here going forward.”

October 7, 2014 WOMEN’S SOCCER RUTGERS OUTSCORED OPPONENTS 12-1 IN 4-0 START TO SEASON

RU executes offensive strategies complementing stout ‘D’ GARRETT STEPIEN CORRESPONDENT

The Rutgers women’s soccer team made Sunday’s 4-0 victory against Purdue look easy, but in the prior six games leading up to the contest, there wasn’t much smooth sailing.

In those six contests, the Scarlet Knights combined for five goals. They managed to pull out a 4-1-1 record over that span, but it wasn’t always pretty.

Earlier in the season, when the team started 4-0, Rutgers outscored its opponents, 12-1. The offense dazzled and lit up the scoreboard against non-conference competitors, but until their most recent win, the Knights were searching for the vengeance and conviction that catalyzed their success.

The solution?

Better movement of players of f the ball on of fense.

The attack entails movement with the ball by the midfielder, as the forwards trail on the sides.

Due to the frenzy of players moving around, the defense becomes confused and subsequently opens up more space for offensive players to run in. When space is created, it opens up a variety of possible outcomes and sets up scoring opportunities.

Junior forward Amanda DeVolk said Rutgers’ ability to finally execute this strategy on the offensive side of the ball drove the Knights past the Boilermakers.

Her two goals that resulted prove it.

“We really stuck to the game plan. We were moving off the ball really well, which is one of the biggest things we set out to do [Sunday],” DeVolk said. “Purdue’s a really high-pressure team, so it’s important we get into space and always have options around the ball.”

While Rutgers ranks around the middle of the pack in the Big Ten regarding goals scored and lacks in corner kick opportunities at the bottom of the conference, when it predicates itself on movement off the ball, enough offensive opportunities are generated.

When taking into account how the defense has been the backbone of the team, the balance between that and the offensive opportunities adds to a dangerous team. It makes the daydream of winning a Big Ten title in the

Senior forward Stef Scholz ranks ninth in the Big Ten in shots taken, evidence of the abundance of shots present thanks to Rutgers’ offensive mindset. Speedy strikers are complemented by smart decisions from midfielders. DAPHNE ALVA / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER Knights’ inaugural season in what is often referred to as the nation’s premier women’s soccer conference that much more of a reality.

Senior midfielder Cassie Inacio addressed the tight matches and how Rutgers has squeaked by its opponents. But she acknowledged that when the offense incorporates good separation on the field off the ball, the team becomes more complete.

“We were beating some good teams, 1-0, but the fact that we can get four goals … it definitely

has to do with mainly moving off the ball, keeping, always thinking and keeping ourselves on,” Inacio said.

With the offensive weapons the Knights have in their crafty midfielders and speedy forwards, it adds up to be the perfect recipe for a successful outing.

Senior Stef Scholz ranks among the top offensive players in the conference in shots taken at ninth place.

The opportunities are abundant due to the way it plays into

the quick forward’s game, as her goal on Sunday was her fifth on the season and 20th of her career, inching her higher in the all-time records books of Rutgers’ history.

Head coach Mike O’Neill has maintained many of the ideals former head coach Glenn Crooks previously instilled in the program during his 14 years at the helm in Piscataway.

The constancy of this attack has been and continues to be an aspect attributing to the Knights’ success on the field.

“It’s a big part of what we preach all the time,” O’Neill said. “… We have to play in twos, threes, fours and fives, so that’s the movement. That’s a big piece of what we do. That makes us successful because we’re thinking a little bit in the future, obviously … a bit more in the future before the game, as well, so it’s important.”

October 7, 2014 TENNIS CUNNINGHAM ENJOYS INDIVIDUAL ASPECTS OF SPORT

FIELD HOCKEY

IQ proves valuable on hockey turf RYAN MORAN STAFF WRITER

When it comes to field hockey, one applies their IQ in the same way as real life, but there are dif ferent levels to doing it in field hockey.

“There is game sense, time management and being able to understand how to control the game,” senior midfielder Sophie Wright said of the Rutgers field hockey team. “Having the ability and confidence to do that is huge in this game. As a player, you want to run the show the way we [the team] can do rather than the opponents.”

In a game of field hockey, there is constant motion throughout each half with no breaks. Players have to be able to absorb the information in front of them and act on it.

IQ is something that is learned and developed over time.

Head coach Meredith Long feels that there is no better way for her players to learn than to put real game situations in front of them throughout practice.

“We coach IQ,” Long said.

“We have some that do get it naturally and some that need to develop a bit more. We are constantly tr ying to put them in training where they have to make decisions like managing a game, or a one-goal lead, or being a goal down.”

Long feels a combination of game experience, training environment and analyzing game footage improve a player’s IQ. The more a player applies what she learns in practice, the more polished she is out on the field and gets a better grasp on the game.

“On the field, to be able to pre-scan the scheme or play and take in the information of f the ball is huge,” Long said.

“Then the player must apply that information when they have the ball to make plays.”

Having a high on-field IQ helps players know where to go on defense or of fense and where they can best position themselves to have an impact for their team.

“Experience really helps build game awareness,” Wright said. “The more you play, the more you learn and the better you get.”

Poor IQs hur t a team’s overall per formance, as the players are all over the field and are not executing to the level they can.

“You have to have a good game sense IQ,” said senior midfielder Jenn Staab. “You can tell if they have it or they do not.”

But sometimes having a higher IQ does not always win the game.

“I definitely say that having more hear t wins ever y time,” said Wright. “If you want it more than the other team, you are going to win the game.”

Sophomore picks college tennis over volleyball MARQUEL INGRAM STAFF WRITER

If it were not for certain appealing aspects of tennis, sophomore Farris Cunningham might have become a college athlete playing a different sport.

“If I were to play another sport, it would probably be volleyball only because I played all throughout middle and high school,” she said.

With volleyball, much like most spor ts, success is fundamentally predicated on the way the members gel together as a unit, which in turn leads to winning games, matches and tournaments.

On the contrary, sports such as tennis, golf and bowling are completely different.

Each presents challenges because they require a person to assume an austere level of mental discipline, and Cunningham enjoys the challenge of relying solely on herself.

“At a collegiate level, I could never imagine playing a sport like volleyball because I’m so used to

the individual aspects of tennis,” she said. “To me, that’s what makes the sport exciting: how we come together as a team, but also as individuals.”

Cunningham was just seven years old when she first started learning tennis and becoming acclimated to the individual aspect of the game.

During the summer, Cunningham, whose favorite player is the now-retired Andy Roddick, attended a tennis camp once a week to develop her skills as a player.

“I decided to stick with it for so long because I really enjoy watching and playing the sport,” she said. “It’s been a huge part of my life for most of what I can remember of my childhood and growing up, and [it] has developed me into the person I am today.”

As head coach Ben Bucca notes, the Rutgers tennis team has had a history of snagging away some of the top high school tennis players from the state of Texas, including Cunningham and junior Mariam Zein.

“There was mutual interest between Farris and the program,”

Cunningham said if she had to play another sport, it would be volleyball because she played it all throughout high school.

DAPHNE ALVA / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER / SEPTEMBER 2014

Bucca said. “So we had her try out, and we liked what we [the coaching staff] saw.”

Now in her second season with the Scarlet Knights, Cunningham has accepted new challenges and rigors of being a college athlete.

But one particular challenge she has faced is not being able to see her friends and family back home in the Lone Star State as often as she would like.

“I get homesick only because I only go home for about three

weeks during the summer and during Christmas break, so I don’t get many opportunities to see my family and friends,” she said.

“However, I really love Rutgers and the friends I’ve made here, so I don’t get homesick that often, though, because I enjoy being up here with my teammates and being in school.”

MEN’S SOCCER RUTGERS-PRINCETON, TONIGHT, 7 P.M.

Knights hope to rebound at in-state rival SEAN STEWART ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR

It has been a turbulent year, to say the least, through the midpoint of the Rutgers men’s soccer team’s season.

Following a valuable road point against No. 17 Michigan State on Sept. 28, the Scarlet Knights (3-5-1) appeared to have once again begun a new chapter.

Head coach Dan Donigan had created a more competitive environment at practice.

The Knights had a week to rest and their next match was against rivals Penn State, a team no player wearing a Rutgers uniform ever needs extra motivation to play against.

While earning a result against the No. 4 team in the country and a squad which had a perfect 6-0-0 record at home was always going to be difficult, the nature of the defeat was the most concerning.

The Nittany Lions outshot the Knights,12-0, in the first half and 22-5 for the game in what was dominant performance by Penn State.

Inconsistent play has been a recurring theme for the Knights and an issue Donigan has had problems fixing.

“It’s not a matter of fatigue or anything because we gave them plenty of rest and recovery this week,” Donigan said. “So I think a little bit of it is psychological and a little bit of it coming out and executing and working. … We have a good outing against Michigan State, we don’t have a very good outing against Penn State and our guys need to figure that out.”

Sophomore midfielder Erik Sa said the Knights need to be more patient in possession and try to avoid clearing balls down field.

Rutgers was outshot, 22-5, Saturday against No. 4 Penn State and struggled to possess the ball. EDWIN GANO / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

KNIGHT NOTEBOOK FIFTH-YEAR TRANSFER RANKS SECOND ON RUTGERS WITH 276 RECEIVING YARDS

Turzilli shows explosiveness as wideout GREG JOHNSON SPORTS EDITOR

Andrew Turzilli figured his decision to return to New Jersey for his final season of eligibility would pay off somehow, but the fifth-year senior didn’t imagine this level of excitement.

After the Kansas transfer wide receiver played a vital role in the Rutgers football team’s first Big Ten win Saturday night against Michigan, Turzilli could hardly comprehend what was going on.

“It just feels amazing, honestly,” he said postgame. “I’m proud of where I’m from [Butler, New Jersey], so it’s just good for me to come home and be able to make some plays for Rutgers. I’ve always loved Rutgers, so playing in that environment was just crazy. … It’s been a pleasant surprise for sure.”

Turzilli, making his first start of the season, provided the Knights with two big catches — both touchdowns — for a team-high 94 receiving yards on the night.

The first score came midway through the second quarter, when offensive coordinator

Ralph Friedgen called for a play-action pass, drawing Michigan’s safeties into the box.

That meant Turzilli only had to beat cornerback Blake Countess, who played the outside as the 6-foot-3 wideout cut inside over the top.

A wide-open Turzilli easily beat Countess and safety Jeremy Clark in a 40-yard footrace to the end zone on the 80-yard catch to give Rutgers its first lead.

Then early in the fourth quarter, Turzilli ran a dig route at Michigan’s 14-yard yard line, again beating Countess with a quick cut back to the middle of the field.

Senior quarterback Gary Nova, who finished with three touchdown tosses, delivered the strike into the end zone to a falling Turzilli.

“He’s just a big, fast guy. He’s got a lot of experience — fifth-year guy,” Nova said of Turzilli. “He knows football, he’s a real smart guy and he’s making some plays that we need to be successful.”

As he has become more acclimated with the system and Friedgen’s offense, Turzilli

BY THE NUMBERS

How has the Rutgers football team fared when scoring at least 20 points in the Kyle Flood era?

In three years under its current head coach, Rutgers is 18-2 when scoring at least 20 points in a game.

The Knights scored 26 points in their win Saturday against Michigan. The only game Rutgers hasn’t scored 20 points was Sept. 13 against Penn State, its lone loss of the season.
