Newark Mayor Cory Booker spoke to Rutgers students yesterday afternoon in the Graduate Student Lounge on the College Avenue campus, in an attempt to rally support before today’s Senate election. Booker said the average college student in New Jersey graduates with more than $25,000 in loans. He said Republican opponent Steve Lonegan thinks students should borrow money from their parents to attend college. “Well I don’t know what planet he lives on or what state he’s from, but everybody in New Jersey can’t simply go to their parents and borrow money for college,” Booker said. With the results of the special U.S. Senate election unveiling tonight, Booker holds a 58 percent to 36 percent lead over Lonegan, according to an Eagleton Institute of Politics poll. Booker became mayor of Newark in 2006, when violent crime was rising and the city’s population was shrinking, according to his campaign website. In an nj.com video, President Barack Obama praised Booker’s “uncommon

character” and his experience creating positive change. “Cory Booker has spent his entire life bringing people with different perspectives together,” Obama said. “Now more than ever before that’s the kind of leader we need in the Senate.” A Monmouth University poll concluded that a 48 percent plurality of voters think Booker is in the race to be on the national stage rather than to serve the state of New Jersey. Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute, said despite some concerns, voters still prefer Booker’s political views to Lonegan’s, according to the poll. Independent voters now support Lonegan over Booker, by a margin of 48 percent to 43 percent. More Democrats — 90 percent according to the poll — support Booker, while slightly less Republicans support Lonegan, with 86 percent. The Rutgers chapter of the American Association of University Professors-American Federation of Teachers, which represents over 6,600 academic employees on three Rutgers campuses, said Booker would win this race by a mile.

Gov. Christie, Buono clash in final debate By Cody Beltis Staff Writer

Gov. Chris Christie and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Barbara Buono squared off last night in their second and final debate hosted by Montclair State University. The Republican governor has been far ahead in the polls since announcing he would run for a second term. The two found little common ground in their faceoff, disagreeing on gay marriage, the state’s economy and the minimum wage. Christie has a past of saying what many considered rude statements to Democrats, veterans and reporters, and he said these are examples of his use of straight-talk. “The most important thing is that I am who I am. I say what I mean,” he said. Buono looked squarely at Christie throughout the debate. She

accused him of being a bully, practicing back-room politics and spending the people’s money for his own purposes, such as his campaign. She said Christie is using the office of the governor as a launchpad to Washington, D.C. Christie said several times during the course of the debate that he disagrees with the brinksmanship going on in Washington, D.C. He said his biggest political regret thus far was failing to listen when he worked in local government, but has since improved. On a trip to the nation’s capital last week, the governor said he told Republicans to get back to work and stop playing partisan games. He said he does not agree with the Affordable Care Act, but also disagrees with the Republican solution. See debate on Page 4

Republican Senate candidate Steve Lonegan said his victory in this Wednesday’s election would send a message to President Barack Obama that the American people want to see an end to the Affordable Care Act and the rest of the president’s “radical agenda.” Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said if Lonegan is elected senator, it would make a clear statement to Congress that the Democratic leadership in this country is failing, according to nj.com. On his campaign site, Lonegan said New Jersey needs a leader who fights for hard workers. “New Jerseyans are looking for a leader who fights for working taxpayers, not a Hollywood wannabe like Cory Booker, who will rubber stamp the President’s far-left-wing agenda,” Lonegan said in a campaign-issued press release. He began his mayoral term of Bogota, N.J. in 1996 and served for 12 years. He unsuccessfully challenged Gov. Chris Christie in 2009’s gubernatorial election, according to NBC News. Lonegan, a former William Paterson College football captain, has a Bachelor of Arts

in business administration and a Master of Business Administration from Fairleigh Dickinson University, according to his campaign site. Palin, along with Texas Gov. Rick Perry and U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, endorsed Lonegan. “What a breath of fresh air to have a true believer in the United States constitution,” Perry said at a rally in Smithville, N.J., on Oct. 1. A poll from the Rutgers Eagleton Institute of Politics concluded independents who did not watch the debates favor Lonegan by a 45 to 42 percent margin. The poll also said Lonegan has less support from Republicans than rival candidate Cory Booker has from Democrats. Lonegan has won only 74 percent of Republicans, and Booker has 96 percent of Democrats’ support. According to a Monmouth University poll, 38 percent of likely voters have a favorable opinion of Lonegan, compared to 35 percent who have an unfavorable view. Twenty-seven percent have no opinion. The poll said 46 percent of voters said Lonegan’s views are not in line with the constituents he would represent if elected See LONEGAN on Page 5

Six independents on US Senate ballot By Sabrina Szteinbaum Correspondent

Six independent candidates are running in today’s U.S. Senate election to offer New Jersey residents alternatives to Steve Lonegan and Cory Booker. According to nj.com, Ed “The Barber” Stackhouse Jr. is a 45-yearold with an eighth-grade education who listens to people’s problems as he cuts their hair. Stackhouse said people are tired and unhappy, and he is setting out to change that by running for Senate. Among the other independent candidates is Eugene La Vergne, who is running under the Democratic-Republican Party and who, according to nj.com, has been accused of stealing $152,000 from a client’s trust fund. La Vergne said the charges are the result of an ugly divorce and squabbles with friends of his ex-wife. He is running to get the “Article the First” recognized as law.

“That constitutional amendment, par t of the original Bill of Rights, would require a congressional representative for ever y 50,000 Americans. There would be about 6,000 members of Congress,” La Vergne told nj.com. New York lawyer and former prosecutor Stuar t Meissner is another option for those who do not see eye to eye with Booker or Lonegan. “His position, he said, is informed by his own divorce experience,” Meissner told nj.com. “He said the federal government ‘incentivizes’ abuses in the family cour t system that must be stopped.” Antonio Sabas of Ir vington, N.J., Rober t Depasquale of Butler, N.J. and Pablo Olivera of Newark, N.J. are also on the ballot in today’s election. Rutgers students living on the Busch and Livingston campuses can vote in their respective student centers today, while College

Avenue, Cook and Douglass campus residents must vote in local institutions, according to the University’s website. Rutgers students who reside on the College Avenue campus can vote in the Lincoln School located at 66 Bar tlett St., according to the site. Residents of the University Center at Easton Avenue can vote at the First Reform Church at 9 Bayard St. Most students residing in Cook and Douglass residence halls can vote at the Lord Sterling Community School at 101 Redmond St. Those living in the Henderson Apar tments can vote at the Rutgers Labor Education Center at 50 Labor Way. Students living in the Newell and Starkey apar tments as well as those in Perr y and Voorhees residence halls vote at Parsons Elementar y School at 899 Hollywood St since the location of these residence halls is in Nor th Brunswick.

“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. RECOGNITION

Intelsat CEO recalls path to success after Rutgers By Gabriela Monje Contributing Writer

Students who want to get ahead have to never give up, embrace change and take risks, according to David McGlade, CEO of Intelsat S.A., a communications satellite services provider. “You really have to drive and put yourself out there. Finding the right internship, finding the right first job — it is crucial to your career ... and of course you’ve got to love what you’re doing,” he said. McGlade, a Rutgers alumnus, came back to his alma mater yesterday to speak to students at the School of Communication and Information on the College Avenue campus. The Rutgers Foundation, an organization that works to reconnect successful Rutgers alumni with the University, joined forces with SC&I to make a visit from McGlade possible, said Diane Gomez, director of marketing and communications at SC&I. Susan Murray, the director of principal gifts at the foundation, said she met up with McGlade and his wife in Washington, D.C. and brought up the idea. “He was really interested in reconnecting,” Murray said. She said it was important for students to learn what steps to take after graduation because there is only so much they can learn in the classroom. “What better way than to learn about the personal and professional challenges they will have to face than from someone who came

here, and has been in their shoes?” Murray said. McGlade, who attended Livingston College in 1982, described his career path since earning his communication degree, giving an insight into the world of communication as well as the rocky road to success. “When I came here after high school, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life,” McGlade said. “I took some classes, got a couple of internships and after I found what I loved, I decided where I would go.” McGlade became a CEO at the age of 27. His corporation, Intelsat, is the largest satellite company in history, he said. He said the company was responsible for broadcasting man’s landing on the moon and the royal wedding of Prince Charles and Diana as well as other landmark events. “Our satellites cover essentially the whole world,” he said. When asked of his success in the industry, McGlade said globalization is the key. Corporations have to know about emerging markets, connectivity, broadband and mobility. In college, McGlade said he had a lot of fun while discovering his passion. “It would have been easy to choose a path where I knew I would have a job, but to be successful, you have to love what you do,” he said. “I wanted an interesting breadth. I wanted to learn, [and] after my first internship I knew I wanted to get into management.” He said he did not have a great experience with his second intern-

Murray said McGlade was an example of how Rutgers prepares students for life after graduation. Gomez said she was also involved in the process of contacting McGlade.

“By seeing [McGlade’s] path, that gives students an idea of what kind of commitment they will need to advance in life and their careers,” she said. Jessica Stanek, vice president of programming at Public Relations Student Society of America, said she liked how he went through his steps to becoming a CEO. “He explained how sometimes

you can have your failures, but finding your passion ... that will make your journey more enjoyable,” said Stanek, a School of Arts and Sciences senior. At the end of the lecture, the school presented McGlade and his wife Arleen, a successful movie producer and also an alumna of Rutgers, with memorabilia from the University.

debate Christie says 50 Democratic officials in New Jersey have endorsed him for his bipartisanship continued from front

He boasted that forging alliances with Democrats in Trenton has allowed him to lower property taxes and balance four budgets in a row. He is also proud of his relationship with the Obama administration during the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. “The proof in the pudding is that 50 Democratic officials in this state have endorsed me because I work with them,” Christie said. Buono replied by saying that he campaigned for people who supported the government shutdown. At many points, Buono accused Christie of siding with the wealthy in the state, calling him a narrow political boss who consistently supports millionaires. She said people need a higher minimum wage because they are living on food stamps and in tent-cities such as those in Camden. She continued to slam him for the 400,000 people who are out of

work in New Jersey and the lowrate of job growth in the state. Christie said he has balanced the budget and brought down the burden of property taxes. “I’d like to know if you can balance the budget and not do it on the back of the working poor,” Buono said. Christie said he is for an increase in the minimum wage over a three-year period. He is opposed to people getting raises every year regardless of the business they work for, or their performance on the job. He said an immediate raise would cost New Jersey 31,000 jobs. Education was also a key issue brought up in the debate. Buono said she would make funding public education a top priority with fiscal constraint. She said higher education has also become unaffordable since she attended Rutgers, and she wants to funnel money to students.

Christie was opposed to the Dream Act taking effect in the state, which would grant undocumented students in-state tuition at universities, but said he is willing to talk about granting in-state tuition to undocumented immigrants once the budget is entirely balanced. The two also disagreed on job creation. Christie wants to lower income taxes to start job growth, while Buono stressed a need to raise them on the wealthy. In order to create jobs in the state, Christie said the regulatory environment needs to be more lenient, and he supported cuts to public agencies that are a detriment to the private sector. He said since he has assumed office, 140,000 private sector jobs have been created. Small business protection and assistance was Buono’s main solution. She said small businesses make up 95 percent of the state’s economy, and they need tax credits and access to capital. Although Christie does not support the Affordable Care Act, he said he supports the state’s Medicaid program and funding for hospitals, which has helped the people of Camden. Buono said Christie’s help in Camden has

been minimal, and he thwarted municipal housing. “Any of us could find ourselves in that position, and he doesn’t realize that,” she said. Buono admitted that she is the underdog in this race, but she supports underdogs like the city of Camden. She said she supports women, and 33 percent fewer women are getting the health care they need since Christie’s cuts to Planned Parenthood. When asked about funding to rebuild the seaside, Buono said the victims of Hurricane Sandy are still her top priority, and money should be going toward getting them back in their homes. Christie said he does not know whether climate change played a par t in Sandy, but he thinks climate change is a real issue, and humans are par tly responsible. Buono promised to attack climate change head-on and criticized the governor for pulling out of the regional greenhouse-gas initiative to reduce carbon footprints. Buono also accused him of vetoing the same-sex marriage bill to support his prospective presidential run in 2016. Buono, a supporter of same-sex

marriage, said his support of marriage equality would be the death-knell to a Republican ticket for president. When asked what he would do if his children were gay, Christie said he would tell them that he loves them, but that he does not agree with same-sex marriage. Buono also reprimanded him for siding with the National Rifle Association and vetoing gun-control legislation that would ban .50-caliber rifles in April. Christie said Democrats went too far on the issue of gun control, and he vetoed the measure because they did not stick with the moderate deal he agreed to. “People on both sides need to keep their word,” he said. Christie said if he were to run for president, he would do so in the same way he has done in N.J., with commitment and aggression. He does not know whether he will run or not. Even after the government shutdown, Buono said she thinks politics is a very noble cause and the back-room politics under Christie’s administration has poisoned N.J. politics. Christie and Buono will faceoff in the election Nov. 5.

Economy Booker supports raising the minimum wage to $10.10, according to nj.com. He wants to invest in programs to fight child poverty and implement stricter regulation on Wall Street to prevent another financial crisis.

Education Booker said he has an action plan to get more low-income young adults to college, and an educated youth is a valuable asset, according to his campaign website. He has called for “tax-free college savings accounts for low-income parents; maximizing Pell Grants; curbing college loan interest rates and making it easier to pay back student loans,” according to nj.com.

Gay Marriage Booker wants to legalize gay marriage. On his campaign site, Booker called it discrimination that New Jersey’s gay couples are not given the more than 1,000 federal rights, privileges and benefits afforded to married couples.

Drugs Booker wants to have a “national conversation” on decriminalizing marijuana, according to nj.com.

Newark is in its biggest period of economic growth since the 1960s, according to Booker’s campaign site. There is currently more than $1 billion of new development happening in Newark, creating jobs for residents. According to his campaign site, Booker led the expansion of the city’s parks and recreation, created programs to support grandparents raising grandchildren and put effort into reducing childhood obesity. The Newark mayor balanced the city’s budget, which now proposes less total spending than when he took office in 2006, according to his campaign site. His site also pointed to the fundraising Booker has done. “He attracted millions in charitable donations to put books in the hands of at-risk children,” according to the site. According to the site, Booker raised over $200 million to launch initiatives to make public education better, such as starting more kids off in preschool, providing books to low-income students and rewarding good teachers with bonuses. In Newark, Booker created a youth court, community court and veterans court so low-level offenders can have access to resources to help prevent them from breaking the law again, according to his campaign site. He also expanded mentoring programs and youth employment opportunities to keep kids out of prison.

Visions for Senate If elected Senator, Booker will fight for marriage equality, calling it discrimination that New Jersey’s gay couples cannot marr y, according to his campaign site. Booker keeps elimination of joblessness and unemployment as a top priority, and he wants to get New Jerseyans back to work, according to his site. The mayor of New Jersey’s largest

city has already created jobs by opening a hotel and attracting businesses like Cablevision and Panasonic to open of fices in Newark. Booker said on his site that as Senator, he would ensure that financial struggles do not become barriers between students and higher education. He said he would evaluate the Af fordable Care Act, defend women’s access to health care, make sure women have access to af fordable bir th control and promote access to healthy food options. Booker will star t work on a “common sense gun reform on day one,” if elected to the Senate, according to his campaign site.

Visions for Senate

lonegan Economy

Controversies Booker promised to rein in campaign spending by outside groups if elected to the Senate, according to nj.com. That being said, he was the only candidate during the Democratic primar y to accept money from power ful groups. Two Super PACs spent $422,055 on campaign ads and on other methods of encouraging residents to vote for Booker, according to nj.com. It has been called into question why Booker did not outright reject outside money. Booker campaign spokesman Kevin Grif fis said to nj.com that Booker did not reject donations because the campaign played by the current rules, which Booker hopes to change in the future. Representative Rush Holt’s campaign spokesman Thomas Seay said it was troubling to see outside groups inter vening in the primar y election, according to nj.com. “It blurs the lines of democratic accountability and makes it harder for votes to tell where candidates stand,” Seay said to nj.com.

Lonegan fought both illegal state bonding and proposed gasoline tax hikes, according to his site. He kept debt and tax increases below inflation despite massive state mandates. He also aided reductions during his run as mayor or Bogota.

According to nj.com, Lonegan opposes raising the minimum wage and calls for eliminating it altogether. He believes regulations are too strict on businesses, and they crush the entrepreneurial spirit. A ballot amendment to raise the minimum wage to $8.25 will be present on the Nov. 5 general election ballot. Lonegan supports major cuts in government welfare programs such as the Affordable Care Act, according to his campaign site. He opposes handouts like welfare benefits that discourage citizens from joining the work force.

Education Lonegan supports school vouchers and charter schools, and wants parents to evaluate teacher performance. His campaign site said Lonegan would like to see Washington have a lesser role in public schools and put parents in control of their children’s education.

Gay Marriage Lonegan’s campaign site said he believes in the long-standing definition of marriage as a union

Lonegan said he wants to “roll back” and “re-examine” every federal regulatory authority and create jobs in the private sector instead of “through massive subsidies,” according to nj.com. According to his campaign site, Lonegan is against illegal immigration and wants to return to the old system in which immigrants did not become a drain on taxpayers. Concerning national security, Lonegan said if elected, he would oppose U.N. treaties that take away national sovereignty and oppose efforts to make American troops serve under international agencies, according to his campaign site. He would use his power as a U.S. senator to block funding and implementation of the Affordable Care Act.

Controversies In 2006, Lonegan asked former Gov. John Corzine’s administration for a $500,000 bailout, according to nj.com. He now opposes government bailouts and criticizes Booker for relying on aid from Christie. Lonegan needed the bailout seven years ago because of increasing costs in pensions, utilities, insurance and salaries that left Bogota short on funds, according to nj.com.

25 Burgers serves diners with variety of options By Matt Mikolay Contributing Writer

When it comes to food, the hungry masses value the power of choice. Butter or margarine? Ketchup or mustard? Delivery or DiGiorno? Lately, one restaurant in New Brunswick has been granting customers the right to choose exactly how they want their hamburgers. A quick walk down the street from the University Center at Easton Avenue, 25 Burgers, located at 4 Easton Ave., opened this past July. Part of a small chain, the New Brunswick restaurant was the eigth to open in the state. 25 Burgers’ interior provides both booth and table seating in a typical fast food style setup, similar to a McDonald’s or Burger King. Orders are placed at the counter and served on trays. The appeal of 25 Burgers is the way it stands out from the competition. True to its namesake, the restaurant’s menu features 25 different burgers made fresh to order and unique in their own ways. The menu contains 12 different Angus burger options, including the Maui Burger, topped with pineapple, ham, cheddar cheese and glazed with a Teriyaki sauce, as well as the Philly Burger, four ounces of Philly steak with sautéed onions and American cheese. But there’s more to 25 Burgers than just beef. The restaurant offers chicken burgers, turkey burgers and even a bison burger. There are vegetarian options for non-carnivores — the Black Bean Burger and the Athens Veggie Burger. In addition to its lengthy burger menu, 25 Burgers features hot dogs, chicken tenders and other conventional fast food items. They say variety is the spice of life, and 25 Burgers certainly has enough variety to make the mouth water. Though each and every burger sounded tempting, I opted for one of the more out-of-the-ordinary menu options. I chose the Chipotle Bison Burger, a sandwich consisting of buffalo meat marinated in chipotle seasonings with crispy onion straws and cheddar cheese topped off with lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise.

Ser ved on a soft, freshly baked deli bun, the bison burger impressed with its bold, well-seasoned meaty flavor. The buffalo meat was juicy, a bit more gamey than beef, and possessed a mild spiciness from the chipotle seasonings. The onion straws on the burger provided a light crunch with a fried flavor somewhat reminiscent of onion rings. The flavors of the Chipotle Bison Burger truly meshed well, and I find myself craving another as I write this review. Next, I felt it was necessary to try out the Burger of the Month. Every month, 25 Burgers offers a different burger in its 25th menu spot. This October, they’re featur-

They say variety is the spice of life, and 25 Burgers certainly has enough variety to make the mouth water. ing the Cuban Burger, a sandwich of pulled pork, grilled ham, melted Swiss cheese, pickles, mustard and mayonnaise. Unfortunately, the grilled ham on the Cuban Burger seemed to overwhelm the rest of the flavors. The sandwich was salty, and the pulled pork failed to shine through. I understand it is modeled after the Cuban sandwich, but the Cuban Burger at 25 Burgers just didn’t seem enough like an actual burger. Of course, no burger would be complete without an order of french fries. The sea-salt fries at 25 Burgers were served in a plastic cup and strongly resembled diner-style french fries. Thick cut with a crunch, they possessed a layered crispiness that satisfied. The fries’ only major flaw was their heavy greasiness. Paired with a thick marinara sauce, the mozzarella sticks at 25 Burgers featured a crisp exterior surrounding a core of gooey, stringy cheese. They were addictive, not suffering from rubber y cheese and soggy structure, and definitely worthy of praise.

To quench my thirst, I tried the Oreo milkshake. Topped with whipped cream and a cherry, the milkshake was thick, yet not so heavy as to clog the straw. The shake began with a pleasant vanilla ice cream flavor, quickly transforming into the rich chocolate flavor of Oreo cookies. The taste is complemented texturally by the presence of ground Oreo cookie crumbles mixed in with the shake. Overall, the Oreo milkshake was sweet, satiating and paired well with the burgers. Sue Arora, who owns the New Brunswick 25 Burgers along with her husband Raj, was on site and eager to discuss her vision for the restaurant. “We’re thinking of new ways of promoting our restaurant,” Arora said. “We’re hoping to get the word out there, especially to Rutgers students. They love burgers.” Arora emphasizes that every menu item at 25 Burgers is fully customizable to better suit the palates of the restaurant’s customers. “One thing that we tell all of our customers? You can modify anything. You want to spice it up? We’ll put in more jalapenos,” Arora said. “You want to take the cheese off? Anything you want, we’ll modify it.” The El Paso Burger features roasted poblano peppers, sautéed onions, bacon, pepper jack cheese, guacamole, lettuce, tomato and chipotle mayo on a Miami onion bun. A winning combination, according to Arora, but not necessarily her personal favorite. “I have to say [that my favorite is] the Gyro Burger,” Arora said. “I love that lamb and turkey patty.” The Gyro Burger features a ground turkey patty topped with grilled gyro strips, feta cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion and tzatziki sauce. The unique, extensive menu at 25 Burgers is worth checking out. Though some of the burgers might not be as impressive as others, students should consider stopping by the restaurant to experience one of the many interesting menu options. There’s sure to be a burger for everyone on the menu. If you have the stomach and the wallet, consider ordering all 25.

Middle: 25 Burgers features traditional fast food seating. Bottom: Mikolay said the mozzarella sticks at 25 Burgers featured a crisp exterior surrounding a core of gooey, stringy cheese.

I am writing this column after a long day. I have been awake since 7 a.m. and my class day ended at 8:35 p.m. After that, I made my way over to the Women’s Political Caucus meeting, read 40 pages, and now I am writing this column. Aside from being a student, I am an intern, an employee and an organization’s board member. This semester is getting the best of me. As strange as it might sound, I wanted my schedule like this. Everything I am doing right now is part of my bigger plan, a goal that I have been working toward since I started college — getting into Columbia Law School. We have recently seen successful women speak out on landing the job of their dreams and breaking glass ceilings. Women such as Sheryl Sandberg encourage us to “lean in” to our career. Sandberg is calling out for more women leadership and I completely agree with her. I have been doing all that I can to achieve my goals, and I know I’m not the only one. I am part of the Douglass Residential College where I see many women with high ambitions and intense schedules. But what about the women who cannot afford to take on an unpaid internship? Are they alienated because they do not appear to have a desire for power? I read an article by Elissa Strauss on Salon, “I’m not ambitious, and that’s OK.” She let me in on the other side of my energy-consuming, goal-oriented life. Strauss explains her frustration with women like Sandberg, as well as Debora Spar, president of Barnard College and author of the new book, “Wonder Women: Sex, Power, and the Quest for Perfection” and Anne-Marie Slaughter, president and CEO of the New America Foundation.

Strauss writes, “When it comes to women’s stories we often get stuck on the narrative of a select few; my story, the woman whose ambition or perfectionism isn’t getting in the way of her happiness or self-fulfillment, is rarely told.” Because we are letting high-positioned women take over this conversation, we are blindsiding the women who do not wish to aim higher, the ones who are entirely content with their “mediocre” careers. I know we are just students right now, but before you know it, we will be out in the real world trying to navigate our ways to the top. When reading Strauss’ article, I realized we become guilty of acting on the advice mainstream women are giving us. This advice can be a great and powerful motivation to someone like myself, who wants to be at the top. But it can also be detrimental to the women who are happiest when they are focusing on coursework or simply being a member to an organization. Much like Sandberg, Spar and Slaughter, my desire to see women succeed has resulted in my pushing and encouraging my friends to intern or to volunteer. I have overlooked their personal desires in order to find what I thought was right for them. I will be the first to say I love having so many responsibilities, but my biggest fear is working hard and sacrificing my sanity only to be rejected from the law school of my dreams. I know I am willing to take the chance. The advice given by these extremely successful women can only pertain to certain women, but by no means does it cover the entire spectrum. It is important to remember that what is right for you will not be right for everyone else. Suggestions that all women should want the same thing deny us of our chance to find what suits our lifestyle.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Israel not biased when demolishing homes In a recent letter to The Daily Targum, “Students do not need to be sheltered from reality,” John Lisowski asked what was wrong with the Students for Justice in Palestine’s eviction notice campaign. He makes the argument that the information on the SJP fliers was “accurate and uncontested,” and asks for someone to explain why students should have to be sheltered from these “facts.” As they say in the vernacular: challenge accepted. Israel does indeed demolish Palestinian homes. Israel also demolishes Israeli homes, and even Christian homes, or anyone else for that matter who doesn’t build a home according to law or code. New Brunswick does the same, and so does any government that has laws and rules as far as what constitutes a home built in accordance the law. Homes, whether Palestinian or Israeli, built illegally on state lands or on lands that the builders do not own, or are not built to code, get demolished, and their “owners” are evicted. I’d love to see Lisowski try to build a house on University property without paying for the land or getting the proper permits, and then see if he would be allowed to keep his house. Many Palestinians believe they can build a home wherever they please in the State of Israel without consulting with government. Often, though not always, those homes are demolished. The SJP flier conveniently leaves out the fact that the overwhelming majority of “evictions” were issued due to the illegality

of Palestinians having built there in the first place. Their homes, sometimes one-room, makeshift structures, are not built to code and lack plumbing or even electricity. Like most campaigns built on propaganda, the SJP also leaves out the inconvenient truth that some of the homes demolished belong to Palestinians that participated in terrorism. Israel has the policy, whether you support it or not — I personally don’t — that anyone who engages in terrorism loses their home. It’s a law meant to deter acts of terror. SJP clearly did not inform people that most house evictions were simply illegal construction or belonged to suicide bombers and their families. Other homes were destroyed in Gaza during a war begun by Hamas, when they placed their rockets next to civilian homes — an international war crime. Palestinians and Israelis who follow the laws of the land, build legally according to code and pay their taxes don’t get evicted from their homes or have their homes demolished, as SJP would like you to believe. Those who break the laws, however, often do. Interestingly, SJP doesn’t follow codes or rules either. According to University code, no student organization is allowed to distribute fliers without approval by student life. SJP knew this rule, yet blatantly and wantonly violated it and then bragged about it, sending a clear message that they don’t have to follow rules and that students’ rights to privacy is second to SJP’s politics. Fortunately, our university does have rules, and we follow them so that we can maintain a respectful, inclusive and diverse community where students, like me, can feel that they have their own private space,

and where their personal space is respected. SJP has no respect for University regulations, students’ privacy or the truth. I encourage my fellow students not to follow the lead of John Lisowski and others like him who rely on a 30-second Google search for answers about complex issues. Get the facts, get educated and please, don’t support student groups that feel they can violate University policy and students’ privacy whenever their cause deems it necessary. Jacob Binstein is a School of Arts and Sciences senior majoring in Jewish studies and information technology and informatics.

Quality news sources really do exist I am befuddled by Daily Targum columnist Sabri Rafi’s piece encouraging the University community to live in ignorance because, well, the world is a not happy place, and “Breaking Bad” is quality television. The examples used to encourage this disinterest in world affairs are CNN and Fox News. I don’t know if anyone would consider either the nation’s premier journalism. Whether it’s the reporting on the “poop cruise” or forcing us to listen to Bill O’Reilly, the networks make it impossible not to want to curl into a ball and watch Walter White. Luckily for the “U-S-of-A” and the author, there is hope. The news is now more diverse than ever with sources such as newspapers — the pieces of gray stuff with the black stuff that gets on your hands. The New York

Times and The Wall Street Journal are each doing excellent journalistic work right now. Reasoned and vetted, they provide reliable information in this day and age where “fair and balanced” is a joke. Lest we forget National Public Radio, available on 93.9 FM for those of us in New Brunswick. “All Things Considered” and “Morning Edition” can give you plenty of information that you will not hate. It’s the news, not the screaming heads which the writer has mistaken for news. I cannot forget my medium of choice: magazines. The world of magazines is second only to the Internet in its diversity. Whether you like knitting or want to stay fit during pregnancy, there is a magazine for it. Offerings such as Time Magazine, while not what they once were, offer an easy to read and quality round-up of what’s going on in the world. The New Yorker, New York Magazine and The Atlantic cover the world and its happenings at a distance that can help bring sanity to our 24/7 world. It is the duty of a citizen in a representative democracy to know the state of the world. Our votes are what choose our leaders, and last I checked, Walter White wasn’t on the ballot. The news can suck, but when you use CNN and Fox News as evidence, you are looking in all the wrong places. News should not be passively consumed with the TV on while burning hours playing “Minecraft.” It is a commitment and takes effort. We are at college to gain knowledge. A man who reads the New York Times everyday is a man of great knowledge. After all, it’s all the news that is fit to print.

Silk Road shutdown is misguided step COMMENTARY DANIEL NATALE

A

bout 2,120 years ago, travelers, warriors, pilgrims, monks and soldiers from Europe, Egypt, India, the Philippines, China and Vietnam would cross mountain ranges, vast deserts and wide seas comprising the Silk Road. The route was given its name because of the fruitful silk business, since silk was a precious material in China. The road also allowed for exchange of other precious goods, ideas and religions. In modern day Afghanistan, the largest Buddhist statue to exist was found along the route. However, despite all of the benefits the road offered society, it also helped spread the bubonic plague. What then, was the Silk Road of 2013? Was it a safe marketplace for the expansion of reasonable goods and services or a den of nefarious activities that served only to spread disease? Those who shut down the website would have you believe the latter. However, my opinion is that what happened was the former. For anyone who hasn’t followed the story, the Silk Road was the world’s largest online drug market. It was shut down Oct. 2 by the FBI after the website’s founder Ross Ulbricht, whose online moniker was “Dread Pirate Roberts” (a character in the story “The Princess Bride”), used his

Gmail account to order a fake ID on the website. The website was estimated to have produced over one billion dollars’ worth of traffic. The currency used was untraceable online money known as Bitcoins, and after the shutdown occurred, the Bitcoin market crashed as users rushed to sell their shares. The price recently bounced back. The shutdown of the site represents a defeat for the American spirit and has made the world a more dangerous place. The website offered users an effective way to acquire contraband from the safety of their own homes. Instead of making friends with scary individuals outside of the website, all users needed to do was add a brick of black tar heroin to their shopping carts. Now, drug users have no choice but to make friends with the wrong people. One doesn’t need to search the streets of New Brunswick too hard to find evidence of this. As I pretentiously write this article from the Starbucks in downtown New Brunswick, I’m sitting across from a thoroughly damaged woman. Her eyes are barely open as she smokes a cigarette and converses with two shady tattooed characters about her plans to get high. Her skin is extremely pale, bordering on green, and her face is caked with foundation. Her hair is unkempt and ratty while her clothes are ripped, stained jeans. In front of me is the essence of urban decay and body odor. I’m hoping the hoodlums don’t take advantage

of her after she passes out from the laced dope she injects into her arm. If she knew about the Silk Road, she wouldn’t be in this situation. While this does make me feel better about my privileges and blessings of good looks and clean clothes, I can’t help but worry about the dregs of New Brunswick who are less fortunate than I am. With that being said, I understand that it wasn’t your friendly neighborhood Mr. Rogers buying a few grams of weed to smoke on his deathbed. Most of the site’s users were serious drug dealers who were intent on reselling their drugs to local communities and furthering the cycle of urban decay. The death of the website represents the destruction of a safer future. If the popularity of the website did spread to the layman, the practice of person-to-person drug deals could have decreased, and that would mean fewer robberies and less full-time local drug dealers. On a broader scale, the shutdown is just another stupid, misguided step in a battle that has been lost and will continue to worsen until there is a change in the United States drug policy. No one needs to be reminded of the failure of prohibition and the power it gave to violent gangs who used fear, violence and oppression to run their businesses. The war on drugs is obviously recreating the same effect on society as it gives power to criminals and violent drug cartels. Ulbricht obviously agreed with these ideas as he wrote on his LinkedIn page that

he was studying economic theory in order to “abolish the use of coercion and aggression amongst mankind. … To that end, I am creating an economic simulation to give people a first-hand experience of what it would be like to live in a world without the systemic use of force.” While I don’t fully agree with all of his libertarian views, I do believe his actions reflected everything our current American and collegiate society put on a pedestal. He attended the University of Texas at Dallas allegedly on full scholarship to study physics and eventually became a graduate research assistant at Pennsylvania State University, earning his Master’s Degree in Materials Science and Engineering. His work on the website followed the footsteps of Mark Zuckerburg, CEO of Facebook, and reflected the work of America’s beloved anti-hero Walter White. He entered a popular industry, challenged the status quo and came out on top. Through innovation and the guts to say, “the system isn’t working, I’m going to do something about it,” Ulbricht highlighted in his work the principles our country was founded on. Now that he and the website are gone, the market is primed for college kids who will start working on the next Facebook for illicit contraband. Daniel Natale is a School of Arts and Sciences junior.

Freshman cornerback Nadir Barnwell’s role is even greater now without cornerback Ian Thomas around for Rutgers. JOVELLE TAMAYO

BASEBALL Mariners draft Kivlehan in fourth round a year after his switch to baseball continued from back Thomas’ dreams might have merit, based off former Knight Patrick Kivlehan’s similar decision two years ago. Kivlehan played safety and then joined the Rutgers baseball team in 2012 after his football eligibility ended. He was monstrous in 51 games on the diamond, hitting .392 with 14 home runs, 50 RBI, 24 stolen bases, a .480 on-base percentage and a .693 slugging percentage — all team leads. He could have played one more year but instead declared for the MLB Draft. The Seattle Mariners selected him in the fourth round, and he has barely slowed down since. Kivlehan hit .320/.384/.530 in 68 games of Advanced A ball. He hit 13 home runs and stole 10 bas-

loss Corboz’s five shot attempts against Bison fail to kick Rutgers into gear continued from back starts of the season. Four other usual reserves also saw action. Bucknell (8-3-1) stuffed Rutgers’ best chance to salvage a win late in regulation. With less than a minute remaining, the Bison blocked a shot from sophomore midfielder Mael Corboz. Corboz tried to make something happen well beyond the box in the 81st minute, but his cross fell right into goalkeeper Clarke Fox’s lap. All he could do was throw his hands up, as the Rutgers points leader could not score his first goal since Sept. 15 even with a team-high five shots and three on target. Rutgers totaled seven shots in the second half, but only sophomore forward J.P. Correa created any besides Corboz. The two combined for 10 of the team’s 11 failed attempts. Shocked as the final horn sounded, the team quickly bolted following Donigan’s final words. No Knight was available for comment during a situation that appears to be pressing for them.

es, continuing to combine as a power and speed threat. But Kivlehan and Thomas are different. Kivlehan played baseball at West Nyack (N.Y.) High School. While Thomas played only six games for the football program, Kivlehan saw action in 21 contests on the football field. Thomas is fast compared to baseball players like Kivlehan, but Kivlehan’s power shocked even head baseball coach Fred Hill. Power is difficult to project and can develop at any time, which makes Thomas’ success even more unpredictable. Rutgers’ pass defense was also volatile even with him. “What can you do about it? You can’t stop those things from happening,” said redshirt freshman linebacker Steve Longa. “But we’ve got to worry about the guys that are on this team because those are the guys that are going to help us going forward.” For updates on the Rutgers football team, follow Josh Bakan on Twitter @JoshBakan.

“This is the game of soccer. The margin of error is slim,” Donigan said. “It’s a tough game, and you have to be mentally strong to play. Hopefully it shouldn’t be getting into their heads if they want to be able to compete at this level.” Corboz pushed through traffic to put a point-blank shot on target in the 19th minute that Fox dropped straight to his knees to snatch at the last moment. Correa missed wide right in the sixth minute, while freshman midfielder Erik Sa also botched a solid chance early on. The attempts were good enough to land Rutgers four corner kicks — more than its last two games combined. But drawing a silver lining from marginal improvements does nothing for Rutgers with all that is at stake. With only three games remaining, the Knights know they have nobody to blame but themselves for putting itself in poor position for a conference tournament spot. “We’ve put ourselves in this spot,” Donigan. “And it is what it is.” For updates on the Rutgers men’s soccer team, follow Greg Johnson on Twitter @GregJohnsonRU.

October 16, 2013 TENNIS KNIGHTS TO FINISH FALL SEASON AT ITA REGIONALS

RU closes out successful year By Louis Petrella Staff Writer

The Rutgers tennis team feels confident entering its final week of play of the fall individual season. After back-to-back strong performances at both the Brown Invitational and USTA Invitational, the Scarlet Knights believe their fall campaign has been successful. Head coach Ben Bucca believes the competition has put the Knights in position to finish the season strong. “We’re in a really good spot. Both of the two major tournaments have prepared us well,” Bucca said. “We’ve been able to win a majority of matches at both tournaments and the team has worked ver y hard up to this point.” But Rutgers must improve in certain aspects. Assistant coach Hilar y Ritchie believes the players are performing well, but need to focus on closing out the tough matches. “Overall, as a team, I think we need to raise our consistency on the cour t,” Ritchie said. “We strike the ball well and hit it hard, but we need to be a little more consistent in those tight matches.” One successful area for the unit so far has been the doubles play in each tournament.

Junior Lindsay Balsamo combined with sophomore Mariam Zein in the finals of the Brown Invitational Eagles Double Flight draw, but lost, 8-6, against Providence’s Alana Prinos and Jennifer DeLuca. The tandem of freshman Farris Cunningham and sophomore Lindsey Kayati made it to the semifinals of the USTA

invite against eventual winners Hannah Morrill and Sylvia Li of Har vard. Bucca knows that as time passes, these doubles pairings will progress because of improving chemistr y between the groups. He has dedicated the fall season to improving the team’s fitness for their upcoming weekend tournaments. “Doubles is always a challenge so there is a slight learning curve, so we want to continue working

on our doubles strategies,” Bucca said. “We want to continue working on our fitness as well. In tennis, fitness is a very key part of the game. At the level these girls are at, their shot making is very advanced so there isn’t much to work on with that.” Cunningham has recognized the team’s bond and said the team must improve on what it has learned from the tournaments. “I think we need to focus on what we learned [at the tournaments],” Cunningham said. “We had a really good team dynamic amongst the other teams so we need to keep that up, and also we need to continue to work on our fitness and our strokes so that we will be better prepared for next tournament from both a mental and physical aspect.” Zein adds to Cunningham’s point that aside from being in the best shape, a positive mentality is vital. “Being mentally tough is one of the most important aspects of the game,” Zein says. “You have to stay mentally tough on the court because when you make mistakes, no one is there to fix them for you. You’re out there by yourself so you have to deal with it and move on to the next point and win the next point.” For updates on the Rutgers tennis team, follow @TargumSports on Twitter.

WOMEN’S GOLF

Knights finish fourth at home tournament By Sean Stewart Contributing Writer

Hosting the Rutgers Invitational yesterday, the Rutgers women’s golf team looked to rebound from its last outing. The Scarlet Knights finished tied for eighth, carding a 635 scorecard in the 20-team field. The Knights carded a 309 the second day, which pleased head coach Maura Ballard. “[Three hundred and nine] is right where I think we should be every time we play,” Ballard said. “The 326 [the first day] was just not a good day for us. You get a little excited for your home tournament and you might put a little too much pressure on yourself and I think that might have been what was going on in that first round.” Rutgers previously finished last place Sept. 29 at the Penn State Invitational. Sophomore Jackie Mullens impressed Ballard, finishing tied for eighth and carded a 152 to lead the team in the 113-player individual field. Mullens shot even in par-three scoring and led the team with six birdies. The Brookside, N.J., native shot 22 strokes better than last year when she finished tied for 95th. “I think I have matured a lot over last semester and over the summer. I think I have definitely improved

my game a lot,” Mullens said. “I’m extremely happy with how I played.” Freshmen Maddy Gedeon and Taylor Clark joined Mullens among the top-40 competitors, as both finished tied for 36th with 160 scores. Gedeon’s first day was slow after she finished tied for 70th. But she responded well the second day and jumped 34 places after recording four birdies, the second most on the team. “I was thinking about the results and the score instead of focusing on each swing and shot,” Gedeon said. “So the second day I just let everything happen the way I planned it would, taking one shot at a time and making sure I make good swings on my shot.” Sophomores Gabrielle Sacheli and Samantha Moyal comprised the rest of the Knights scorecard. Sacheli led the team with 22 pars and finished tied for 57th carding a 163 while Moyal finished tied for 79th carding a 169. Sophomores Melanie Chambers and Racquel Zurick also competed for the Knights as individuals. Delaware won the Invitational with a 603, surpassing defending tournament champion Seton Hall by five strokes. The Pirates’ Erin McClure won individual honors with a two-over-par score of 146 and recorded one of only two eagles in the tournament.

KNIGHT NOTEBOOK KROFT NAMED TO MACKEY WATCH LIST

High sack total frustrates O-Line By Bradly Derechailo Associate Sports Editor

Senior back steps up on offensive end By Justin Lesko Staff Writer

When senior back Laura Rose converted a penalty stroke in the Rutgers field hockey team’s win against Georgetown last Saturday, she tied for second in goals on the Scarlet Knights. This feat is more impressive since she is a shutdown defender. Along with the goal, Rose and her fellow backs prevented the Hoyas from getting a single shot off in the 5-0 win. As a result of her impressive play, Rose made the Big East Weekly Honor Roll. “It’s really exciting because it’s the first time I’ve been named to that in college,” she said. Following a two-goal performance against Georgetown, junior midfielder Sophie Wright also made the Weekly Honor Roll. Rose and Wright have provided goals that the Knights have struggled to generate this season. Senior for ward Lisa Patrone, who led the Knights in scoring last year, only scored against Georgetown. Sophomore midfielder Alyssa Bull’s year ended in the season opener after suffering a complete ACL tear. Bull was second on the team in scoring last season. Rose has taken full advantage of the few opportunities she has had to score. Two of her four goals came off penalty corners in victories against LaSalle and Siena. The Knights average 8.15 penalty corners per game, which ties them with Davidson for 14th in the countr y. They hold 106 total.

Rose’s presence has been significant for four seasons. The Washington Township, N.J., native has appeared in all 57 matches in the three seasons, star ting 55. She has made nine star ts in 12 games this season. One of the Rutgers’ main goals this season is making the Big East Tournament. They are currently close for the fourteam tournament, sitting in fifth in the standings. Rose is one of the few Knights with tournament experience. “It’d be awesome to make the Big East Tournament,” she said. “We made it freshman year and it would be a great way to end our senior year and go out on top.” Despite a semifinal loss to eventual 2010 Big East Tournament champion Syracuse, Rose’s defensive pressure, including a defensive save, gained recognition. As a freshman, she became the first Rutgers player ever to make the Big East All-Tournament Team. The Knights (8-5, 2-2) face a significant test Saturday when they travel to No. 15 Louisville. Their final two Big East matches will then ensue at the Bauer Track and Field Complex, when they face Providence on Oct. 25 and Old Dominion on Nov. 1. Both are fighting to make the Big East Tournament. For updates on the Rutgers field hockey team, follow @TargumSports on Twitter.

Senior of fensive lineman Andre Civil was angr y when he heard how many sacks his unit allowed Thursday night against Louisville. “Whenever you don’t perform the right way and your quarterback gets sacked eight times, you’re going to be upset about it, and I was extremely upset,” Civil said. One of Rutgers football head coach Kyle Flood’s priorities this bye week is to find a remedy for the offensive line, which has allowed 22 sacks in six games. Only Hawaii, Connecticut and Idaho have allowed more. “Unfortunately there is no good time for it to happen,” Flood said yesterday. “And when it does we have to try and examine it, try to see what those issues are that aren’t the physical issues. … I think we could have performed better and could have won more one-on-ones.” Flood said the high sack total against the Cardinals was not entirely the line’s fault, as he pointed out there were times running backs missed assignments that resulted in junior quarterback Gar y Nova either scrambling or being brought to the ground. But the majority of the mistakes lie upfront, and Flood did his best to fix it during the Scarlet Knights’ last game. Flood inser ted both Civil and senior guard Antwan Lower y on the right side of the line for junior tackle Taj Alexander and redshir t freshman guard Chris Muller, both of whom

dealt with injuries throughout the contest. It was Lower y’s second time receiving extensive time of f of the bench in the Knights’ past two contests, as he entered for Muller in Rutgers’ 55-52 win Oct. 5 against Southern Methodist. Lowery believes whoever Flood chooses to run out with the first team will have enough experience to be effective. “At some point, everybody who’s taken the field has played

with everyone before,” Lowery said. “It’s all about taking extra time with each other and just communicating and getting on the same page. Whoever he decides to go with, all of us have played so it will be [an] easy [transition].” Flood said he would like to get a better look at all four when completely healthy, and he has 10 more days to decide the five who will start up front Saturday against Houston. The bye week will also allow the of fensive line to focus on not underachieving in pass protection.

Tyler Kroft made the John Mackey Award midseason watch list yesterday. Twenty-eight other candidates made the watch list for the award, which is given annually to the most outstanding collegiate tight end. In six games this season, Kroft has 18 receptions for 268 yards and three touchdowns. That includes a 1-yard reception for the Knights’ only touchdown in their 24-10 loss to Louisville. The semi-finalists for the award will be named Nov. 18 and the finalist Nov. 25. said he will not

try a lot of defensive players at different positions during the bye week, but will continue to get younger players and reserves more reps. “I don’t think you need to experiment, but I do think the bye week affords guys opportunities to play a little more,” Flood said. “And the more a player shows he can do it in practice, the more willing you are to give them the opportunity to do it in the game.” For updates on the Rutgers football team, follow Bradly Derechailo on Twitter @Bradly_D.

FOOTBALL KNIGHTS NEED CORNERBACKS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE

Thomas leaves RU to pursue baseball By Josh Bakan Sports Editor

Ian Thomas never played baseball at Franklin (Md.) High School. He and junior strong safety Lorenzo Waters discussed the sport a couple times, but only jokingly. When the redshirt freshman cornerback left the Rutgers football team to pursue a baseball career — head coach Kyle Flood announced it yesterday — coming out of leftfield was an understatement. “We all joke about it, baseball players do less work and make more money,” Waters said. “But it’s just a common joke.” Thomas, no longer part of the program, was not available for comment. Flood said he expects Thomas to play for another school. Thomas’ departure leaves the Scarlet Knights secondary even thinner and with options vanishing. Thomas already moved from wide receiver to cornerback in December partly because of the lack of cornerbacks and a surplus of wideouts. Rutgers ranks 118th out of 123 Division-I teams with 306.8 passing yards allowed per game. The Knights only pass for 240.7 yards per game. Sophomore safety Tejay Johnson will remain a Knight until at least December. Egg Harbor Township Municipal Court pushed his trial date for his alleged involvement in an assault with six other defendants until then. Flood will not comment on Johnson’s situation until the case finalizes. But senior cornerback Lew Toler’s broken arm Thursday against Louisville ended his season. Now junior Gareef Glashen is Rutgers’ most experienced cornerback with one-career start. He returns after a two-game absence from an undisclosed personal issue. Freshman cornerback Nadir Barnwell has started the last three games and freshman cor-

Redshirt freshman cornerback Ian Thomas left the football program to attempt to join a baseball team at another school. Thomas did not play baseball in high school, and his decision shocked head coach Kyle Flood and teammates. TIAN LI / STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER nerback Anthony Cioffi has played in five. But both lack experience. “It’s just kind of teaching them how to prepare,” Waters said. “It’s a dif ferent role stepping in, getting more playing time and taking more reps. You have to get them accustomed to seeing dif ferent formations and just being comfor table on the field and make sure we’re both looking at the same thing.”

Redshirt freshman Jevon Tyree and freshman Delon Stephenson will likely hold more responsibility. Tyree only played Sept. 7 against Norfolk State, while Stephenson played sparingly in the last five games. Flood is not completely perplexed, as he has seen similar situations. He referenced former Central Florida defensive end Blake Keller, who left UCF on Monday after leading the team with three sacks as

a freshman. UCF head coach George O’Leary told the Orlando Sentinel he left the team due to “personal issues.” “Players make those decisions,” Flood said. “Division-I football is certainly very demanding. If you’re not 100 percent and your heart’s not in it, I could see why somebody would want to move on.” See baseball on Page 13

the touchline — so why we’re sitting on our 6-yard box? I don’t understand it.” Donigan has few answers for Rutgers (5-81, 2-3) at this point. For the fourth time in seven games, the Knights could not push anything into the back of the net. For the eighth consecutive first half, Rutgers mustered next to nothing. Without senior forward Kene Eze, a nearly identical script of offensive woes continues to persist. “We’ve been saying it for the last five, six, seven games. There’s really nothing else to say,” Donigan said. “I think it’s pretty obvious what the problems are. I’m not going to rehash the same problems that we’ve had.” With nothing to lose, Donigan gave sophomore forward Thomas O’Rourke and freshman defender Kiernan Kemmerer their first

Sheer disbelief washed over the faces of members of the Rutgers men’s soccer team last night as they slowly made their way off Yurcak Field. Yet another mental lapse shattered the Scarlet Knights’ hopes of turning around a season that is steadily slipping away. Off a throw in with 8:39 left in the second overtime, Bucknell defender Alli Mayowa stole and punched through a loose ball for the 1-0 game-winner. “We said from the get-go, ‘Don’t give them restart and long throw-in situations,’” said head coach Dan Donigan. “And we gave them plenty. Sometimes they’re unavoidable, but why we can’t start our last line 5 yards below where the throw in is [perplexing] — the throw-in was from like 20, 22 yards out on
