New Rutgers fellowship combats opioid epidemic RYAN STIESI NEWS EDITOR
Mark Beal, a professor in the School of Arts and Sciences, recently published his third book that offers lessons from interviews and conversations with college students around the country. His latest focuses on how Generation Z interacts with media and marketing. COURTESY OF MARK BEAL
Professor drops 101 lessons about Gen Z CHRISTIAN BALBUENA CONTRIBUTING WRITER
Members of Generation Z, as defined by Mark Beal, are digital natives, socially conscious and community-minded people, who will be entering the workforce in droves over the course of the coming years. Beal, a professor in the School of Arts and Sciences, recently published his latest book titled “Decoding Gen Z: 101 Lessons Generation Z Will Teach Corporate America Marketers and Media,” aimed at teaching marketers how college-aged people consume media. This is Beal’s third book taking inspiration from inter views with students at Rutgers and across the country to create a depiction of how the demographic consumes information and what impact that will have. In his book, Beal compiled a glossar y of terms used by Gen-
Rutgers New Jersey Medical School (RNJMS) has launched a new Addiction Medicine Fellowship in an effort to fight the ongoing opioid epidemic. The fellowship is appointed by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). Upon completing the program, graduates will be eligible to sit for the boards in Addiction Medicine exam. Board-certified physicians are automatically granted the waiver to prescribe buprenorphine, a medication
eration Z, which he said were important for companies to pick up on. From “sus” to “G.O.A.T,” he made sure to cover most of the terms used by college and high school students today, keeping the definitions from seeming out of touch by consulting his interviewees instead of the internet. Beal said the book’s final lesson, “We Will Change the World,” summarizes the book in a powerful way and describes how businesses will need to adapt when Generation Z joins the workforce. “... This lesson captures the way Gen Z will challenge the status quo, the way they will transform the traditional 9-to-5 work mindset, the way they will change how brands adver tise and market to consumers, the way individuals have the ability and power to mobilize to create a positive movement,” he said. “I am confiSEE LESSONS ON PAGE 4 RUTGERS.EDU
Petros Levounis, professor and chair in the Department of Psychiatry, said the fellowship program will help improve outcomes for one of the most disenfranchised patient populations — those trying to recover from opioid addiction.

used to treat opioid use disorder, according to a press release. Buprenorphine is one of three commonly used medications to treat opioid addiction, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Drugs, such as buprenorphine, alongside Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), the use of medications in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies, have been found to be more effective in treating addiction and helping people sustain recovery, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). “The need for addiction expertise is dire. Addiction to prescription opioids, heroin, and now fentanyl and its related substances, is a major cause of suffering and death in our communities,” said Dr. Petros Levounis, professor and chair in the Department of Psychiatry. Applications for physicians interested in the one-year program will be accepted through Jan. 1, 2019, and the program, which offers three positions, will begin in July 2019, according to the press release. Physicians accepted into the fellowship will train in the evaluation and treatments of patients with substance use disorders, behavioral addictions and co-occurring psychiatric disorders, according to the press release. Fellows will also study motivational interviewing, behavior modification techniques, 12-step facilitation and psychopharmacology specifically designed for this patient population while alternating between clinical locations at University Hospital in Newark, the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System and the Rutgers University Behavioral Health Care sites, according to the press release. “With this new fellowship, we’re actively seeking doctors who are passionate about learning addiction medicine, envision a medical career dedicated to one of the most disenfranchised and underserved patient populations and are committed to putting an end to the opioid epidemic,” Levounis said. Taking a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach, the fellowship program, created by faculty physicians in the Department of Psychiatry, includes supervising attendees representing the departments of emergency medicine, internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology and anesthesiology, according to the press release. “While all physicians can — and should — diagnose and treat addiction, only a handful of doctors have the skills to provide the much needed guidance and leadership in this area,” said Dr. Erin Zerbo, professor and fellowship program director in the Department of Psychiatry. “Graduates of our fellowship will become specialists in addiction prevention, treatment, and integration of services with other medical and mental health care.”

Alumna makes major last minute switch to journalism CHRISTIAN ZAPATA NEWS EDITOR
Julie Tsirkin, Rutgers alumna and once journalism and media studies major, started working at NBC Studios almost as quickly as she switched majors senior year. Approaching her last year at the University, Tsirkin was studying for her Law School Admittance Test (LSAT) when she decided to apply for her first news internship, the rest is history in the making. She is now the youngest full-time producer at the media company’s New York bureau, according to an article from Rutgers Today. Tsirkin works under lead White House correspondent Hallie Jackson at NBC. She manages her social accounts and works with NBC’s digital team. She also helps Jackson determine newsworthy interviews from the show then clips, edits and publishes them to MSNBC’s website, according to the article. “It’s a lot of multitasking between producing the show, being in the control room and constantly being on watch for breaking news. My main approach to Hallie’s social is making sure her voice shines. Her personality attracts her audience, and it’s important to show them she’s real,” she said. Tsirkin initially planned on majoring in journalism during her freshman year but was advised by an advisor to study pre-law. “He told me, ‘Do what you love’. And so I navigated through
my journalism major well-believing that I wouldn’t pursue it and stumbled through some pre-law classes along the way,” she said in the article. At that point, she feared it would be too late for her to switch, but with help from the School of Communication and Information (SCI) Director of Undergraduate studies in the Department of Journalism and Media studies Steven Miller, she managed to graduate into a fulltime position. “I have to be honest, I’ve always loved journalism. I guess I just never thought I could make a career out of it,” she said in the article. In a Q&A session with Rutgers Today, Tsirkin said described what a day in her work life is like. “There is no typical day in news, especially with our current administration — every single day is a toss-up, you never know what you’re going to get … I’m pretty busy, but you should see how busy Hallie is — it doesn’t even compare. It’s a blessing that I get the opportunity to learn from one of the hardest-working women in the business,” she said in the article. Tsirkin advised current journalism students to continue doing the work of honest journalists. “The stories will continue to be told, words will always be written and committed people will always hold our government accountable. If anything, now is the time to be a journalism student,” she said.

LESSONS Beal details 101 ways that corporate America can learn from Generation Z CONTINUED FROM FRONT dent this generation will inspire positive change in society, culture, communities, the workplace and schools more than any generation before them.” As Generation Z enters the workforce, Beal said the traditional rulebook needs to be thrown out and corporate America needs to realize this generation is different from millennials, in order to capture their unique mindset. “Gen Z are not millennials,” he said, referring to what he said is an over concentration on the millennial generation. The essential element to the operations of Generation Z is
technology, Beal said. As the first generation to be raised with devices always at arm’s reach, he said that many do not follow the traditional 9-to-5 routine because they can, and some want to work from home or at their own pace. Also impor tant, he said the working world is currently too impersonal for a generation in which many people were raised on the ideal of working with a purpose and collaborating with others. Beal said Generation Z sees work not only as a means to make money, but also as a way to utilize their talents to effect change, and that they would prefer a mentor to a manager.
“(Generation Z) grew up on technology, embrace technology and take this concentration on tech into internships and jobs,” he said. In the future, the companies that are best equipped to handle Generation Z might be the ones made by the very same group. Beal said this in describing how he found that college-aged students today commonly do not have a set career in mind and participate in side businesses that some try to turn into full blown businesses in the future. Generation Z prefers a recent company to an established one and Beal pointed out that many of the most popular brands today are those whose age parallel their own, he said, citing Amazon, Netflix, Twitter and Spotify as some examples. “(Businesses are) not prepared at all,” Beal said. “So much focus has been put on millennials now they have to shift the mindset and shift their approach ...
that’s the reason I went out and interviewed 60 Gen Z-ers across America, (to) truly understand
everything from the content they consume to what they look for in internships and jobs.”

Archdiocese releases names of ‘credibly’ accused clergy ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON (AP) — Days after Washington’s archbishop resigned over his handling of sexual abuse allegations, the Archdiocese
of Washington released the names of more than two dozen clergy members it says have been “credibly accused” of sexually abusing minors. The revelation comes just four days after Pope Francis accepted
the resignation of Cardinal Donald Wuerl and while the Washington Archdiocese is still reeling from recent revelations that Wuerl’s predecessor as archbishop had a decades-long string
of abuse allegations. The archdiocese posted the list of priests on its website late Monday. It names 28 clergy members and three priests who were part of religious orders, but
Cardinal Donald Wuerl recently resigned from his position as D.C. archbishop. He was implicated in recent revelations involving his predecessor who resigned over the summer due to abuse charges. FLICKR
served in Washington parishes or schools. Most of the cases date back multiple decades and only three of the alleged abuses took place after 2000. Of the 31 men listed, 16 are dead. The list includes several priests who were accused of abuse and convicted, and some who were accused, “treated” and returned to work only to be accused again. Some were removed from their clerical positions or the ministry at some point. The controversy that forced Wuerl’s resignation does not actually cover his time in Washington. It centers on a Pennsylvania grand jur y report accusing him of covering up multiple sexual abuse allegations and shuffling pedophile priests through different parishes, during his 18-year tenure as a bishop in Pittsburgh. In a “Letter to the Faithful” released last week, Wuerl repeatedly apologized and asked for “forgiveness on behalf of Church leadership from the victims who were again wounded when they saw these priests and bishops both moved and promoted.” Earlier this year, Wuerl’s predecessor in Washington, Cardinal Theodore McCarrick resigned from the powerful College of Cardinals and retired from public life after a string of sexual abuse revelations. McCarrick had retired as archbishop in 2006 and none of the sexual abuse allegations cover his time in Washington. He is accused of abusing an altar boy and several young seminar y students studying to be priests during his time as a priest in New York and a bishop in New Jersey. The allegations against McCarrick were particularly damaging since it emerged that McCarrick continued to rise through the church hierarchy for decades despite two lawsuits against him and multiple warnings to church officials about his behavior.

Law of Attraction can better people’s lives
T
he Law of Attraction is a philosophy built on turning positive KAAN JON BOZTEPE thoughts into actuality. The concept of accepting how life is, realizing just how special the universe is and focusing on positive thoughts and goals without doubt. Practicing the Law of Attraction has no age, has no religious or cultural belief. The energy within someone has the power to pull things that they want from this universe into reality. There might be those scuffing at the idea of the Law of Attraction, but those same people make lists of their goals and normally believe in karma. The concepts of the Law of Attraction are actually quite simple in theory, but the human mind can sometimes be immune to positivity as being negative is always the easy way out. While the brain powers the entire body, it does not always do or think what is best for you. The human brain wants to protect you, but in doing so it can put negative thoughts in your mind to protect you. Many people are blind to the amount of potential they truly have. Aside from physical characteristics and wealth or lack of, most people are ver y similar. I do not believe that someone has a set potential, but that people work toward the potential they believe they have. The issue with that is people put constraints on themselves and normally under value, sometimes over, their capabilities. Many people do not check to see why they feel as they do, they just assume that is just life. Negativity also plays a huge role in not achieving the success of the Law of Attraction. Impatience is the key factor to why the Law of Attraction does not work for everyone. Most people will try to be positive in hopes to use the Law of Attraction and attract the positive things they want in life, but then something bad happens. Whether that person loses their job and says something such as, “just my luck” or “could this get any worse?,” they are pulling negative energy toward them and inviting more negative outcomes to occur in their lives. Maybe the loss in that job is going to bring a better job with better pay, maybe you were going to be fired in a time where you needed more money than you do now, maybe you were going to get into a car accident on your way to your job and were saved from it because you lost your job. The Law of Attraction is not as simple as it sounds, because people generally do not like to be wrong. There is a certain responsibility with being wrong, a responsibility most people do not want to accept. People would rather blame others in their life, their health, their
KAANOTATIONS
“The range of benefits are endless and include mental, spiritual and physical health.” lack of intelligence and anything else of the sort. All these things are extremely negative, and your brain believes them to be true. Your brain does not have common sense, your brain does not know that you are saying these things to cope with shortcomings or not admitting you are wrong, your brain is sadly not as advanced as you might think. The universe is always on your side, if you allow it to be. Life is a blank canvas ready to be painted with all the possibilities that are humanely possible. Let me put this in simpler terms — if you received a failing grade on exam, you cannot change it unless your professor deems it worthy of change. You then have two options, you can either sulk and blame the teachings of the professor and the lack of teaching or you can still deem the teachers teaching not at the quality you would like, but you can stay for after hours and learn your lesson from what questions you got wrong and fix it for next time. The Law of Attraction is very similar to how people view self-care. The range of benefits are endless and include mental, spiritual and physical health. Now, people might then state, “but if I say I’m okay, not upset or mad, then I’m lying.” I understand where that person is coming from, but the key thing to take out from this is that these are not lies, they are different ways of interpreting what happens to you. It takes 21 days to make a habit, but you have to be consistent and not break the 21 days, the same goes with being positive. Do not allow yourself to say “I hate that,” “why does this always happen to me” or “how come this doesn’t happen to anyone else.” These phrases are essentially you asking for the universe to give you more of what you hate and do not want, because instead of thanking the universe for positives out of even the most difficult situations, you focus on negatives and disregard small victories. Let the universe work for you — life is short — it is your choice whether you would rather be happy in this miracle we call life, or upset.

Forza Horizon 4 is money well spent for racing game fans GAMER NEXT DOOR MITCHELL KEVETT
F
or those of you who do not know, Forza Horizon 4 is now available for purchase on Xbox and PC. I have spent nearly 30 hours frolicking about Horizon 4’s new open world, and I have been able to gain a solid grasp of the game’s mechanics, features and story arc. Horizon 4 is the follow up to developer Playground Games’ Forza Horizon 3, which boasted the Australian outback for its open world setting. The Forza Horizon series functions as an arcade-like spin-off of the Forza Motorsport series, a separate slew of titles which is more simulation-oriented. The game is completely online, with other players inhabiting the world alongside you (an online option is available). Horizon 4 is set in the United Kingdom. Horizon 4 has a much more fleshed out and alive open world when compared to the game The Crew 2. While Crew 2 possesses the entire continental United States as its backdrop for an open world map, it unfortunately feels empty. The map may be much larger than Horizon 4’s in proportion, but the space in between the interesting parts of the map is incredibly dull and underpopulated. Every road is interesting to drive in Horizon 4, while Crew 2’s roads
feel like monotonous highways. Horizon 4’s has small walls, hedges, bushes, trees, telephone poles and even guard rails that are all completely destructible, whereas the same dynamics cannot be found in Crew 2. Horizon 4 also has changing seasons, which makes the world feel vividly different. This is a mark that Crew 2 misses. Horizon 4’s gameplay feels like a cross between Burnout, Dirt, Need for Speed and The Crew series. While driving around the world you rack up an arcade-like points multiplier through destroying objects,
styles, and allows players to experience Horizon 4 in whichever way they choose. The game has a loose storyline — the player earns a place and then competes in the Horizon Festival. To progress in the story players must earn influence points, which can be gained through finishing a variety of cross-country, off-road, track or street racing events. Horizon 4 also has set events, where players race dirt bikes, giant hovercrafts, harrier jets and even a train. Horizon’s cars sounds are simply stunning. There is nothing like putting

driving fast and recklessly and doing well in the game’s slew of racing events. With these points you can unlock cash prizes and wheelspins. Wheelspins may net a player lump sums of cash, rare cars or clothes for your avatar. With cash you can buy cars, car upgrades or houses. Property in the game allows you to fast travel, and some properties hold special perks which are unlocked with their purchase. The game’s reward system encourages a variety of play
the pedal to the metal, hearing that turbocharger spool up and seeing a massive flash of fire shoot out of your exhaust pipe when you let go of the gas. The game is incredibly immersive, with some very well done graphics, motion blur and audio. Horizon 4 has 450 cars in the base game alone, and all of the rides have optional performance upgrades and fully customizable exteriors. More cars are already being added as optional DLC.
The game’s presentation is fantastic overall. The menu system is streamlined and easy to use, and joining a session with your friends could not be more simplified. The only issues I have thus far were some occasional frame rate stutters while playing on my PC, but aside from that the game runs perfectly. One major gripe that I do have relates to Horizon 4’s incompatibility with racing wheel peripherals. I have a Logitech G27 racing wheel, and I presently cannot dial in a setting which feels comfortable to use. Hopefully a patch will be released in the near future which will alleviate the game’s poor support for such peripherals. Horizon 4 should be a real treat if you are a racing fan. The game has hundreds of hours of content and loads of intriguing areas to play around in and explore. Horizon 4 is packed full of features, exciting gameplay tweaks and variety. While the lack of proper wheel support is annoying, I doubt that most people are playing on anything other than a controller. Spending $60 on Horizon 4 is definitely money well spent if you are looking for some arcade-like entertainment to fill in your downtime this fall.

For Black Poetry Day, explore next generation of prose artists JORDAN LEVY CORRESPONDENT
acknowledged that they are but a handful of students lucky enough to receive the proper education and opportunities to have their prose flourish and grow. This recognition, and the desire to venerate the communities that raised them despite the odds, has informed some of the greatest creative writing our nation and the world has ever seen. While it would be easy to extol the virtues of legends like Maya Angelou and Nikki Giovanni, it’s also exciting to look at some of the writers still emerging. In honor of Black Poetry Day, here are just a few of the bold voices creating legacies of their own.
Literacy is the bedrock of any modern society, crucial to everything we do. It’s exciting, informative, expressive and for far too long, was exclusive. It’s not hard to make the case that equitable education was not available to communities of color until at least the late 1950s, and even today, literacy rates are still heavily affected by socioeconomic status. According to research by the National Center for Education Statistics, Black children still constitute the highest number of minors living in poverty. The same study showed Black children consistently scoring in the lowest AJA MONET among reading tests in fourth and A Brooklynite of Cuban-Jamaieighth grade. It’s clear that more can origins, Aja Monet is an acwork needs to tivist and edbe done to reach ucator as well out to historicalas a poet.

that she’s walking in the tradition of those who came before her.
HANIF ABDURRAQIB
Black Mid-Western artists have a long and strong history of shaping culture, with cities like Chicago and St. Louis being home to many art and music movements in the past century. Hailing from Columbus, Ohio, Abdurraqib is carrying the torch. A cultural critic, essayist and poet, he’s cut from a Baldwin-esque cloth. His writing is incisive, and well in touch with the ways we communicate and consume. An author of four books, his latest release of poetry is called “Vintage Sadness,” which came out last year. The opening quotes, taken from Octavia Butler and Carly Rae Jepsen, are a testament to the threads he sees between cultures and connections he makes. It’s also just incredibly interesting to see the contrast of influences, like in his latest essay collection, which quoted Lorraine Hansberry and Lil Uzi Vert. With more work slated to be released in 2019, be sure to look for more from Abdurraqib.
EVE EWING
Reaching a point of creative and educational praxis has often proved to be a challenge, but Dr. Eve Louise Ewing has taken on the task with aplomb. A Chicago-raised, Harvard-educated sociologist of education who researches racism, social inequality and urban policy, she also writes poetry. Her work as a sociologist has been funneled into a new

INSTAGRAM book called “Ghosts in the Schoolyard: Racism and School Closings on Chicago’s South Side.” Her collection of poetry, essays and visual art, “Electric Arches,” was released last year, and was named the Best Poetry Book by the Chicago Review of Books. It seems like there isn’t much she can’t do, and Ewing is sure to be a mainstay in academic and artistic circles for years to come.
Just as the highlighted writers are all interdisciplinar y artists, let’s not forget that plenty of the most prolific Black poets today work in hip-hop. Rappers like Noname and Earl Sweatshirt are hard at work putting gripping prose into a musical context. In whatever form, watching Black artists blaze new trails and exploring culture is engaging and essential.

“It felt really good to represent Rutgers in the doubles semifinals, especially being the only unseeded team left.” — Junior Kat Muzik

VOLLEYBALL RUTGERS-NO. 4 PENN STATE, TONIGHT, 7 P.M.
Rutgers back on road to face No. 4 PSU DELANEY ZUBRICK CONTRIBUTING WRITER
Currently 6-15 and on an eight-game losing streak, the Rutgers volleyball team has had a tough season in the Big Ten once again. The Scarlet Knights most recently played Indiana (12-7, 3-5) in Bloomington and had another three-set loss. That gives them three consecutive straight set losses, which they will have to overcome. Their upcoming game is against No. 4 Penn State (15-3, 6-2), who recently defeated then-No. 3 Nebraska (15-3, 6-2), meaning the Nittany Lions will certainly pack a punch coming off a huge win. Overall against the Hoosiers, Rutgers did not perform well compared to its usual stats. But someone to look out for at this next game is freshman outside hitter Anastasiia Maksimova. She posted a career high kills with 7 in the game. With a high exposure to volleyball growing up, Maksimova has had both parents and grandfather pursue the sport. At 6-foot-1-inch, her height helps her on the court. She proved this past game that she is more than a legacy — she has earned her spot playing in the Big Ten. Freshman setter Inna Balyko had 23 assists for Rutgers last game against Indiana, a strong performance which she will need to repeat if the Knights hope to upset the Nittany Lions.

TENNIS MUZIK, FISHER DUO REACH DOUBLES SEMI-FINALS
Knights finish 6-day ITA Championships ALEX FABUGAIS-INABA CORRESPONDENT
The Rutgers tennis team pulled off its best performance of the fall season at the ITA Northeast Regional Championships in New Haven, Conn. this past weekend. Junior Kat Muzik and freshman Tess Fisher rallied to a semifinals match in doubles play, while sophomore Maya Jacobs fought her way to the round of 16 in singles action. The Scarlet Knights went in as the underdogs and turned many heads, coming out of doubles action with the only unseeded duo that competed in the semifinals. Fisher and Muzik eliminated No. 3 seed Brown in a gritty quarterfinals performance (8-7), but couldn’t quite pull out a win against Syracuse’s Sofya Golubovskaya and Sofya Treshcheva (6-4, 7-6) in the semifinals. The last Rutgers duo to make it to the final four were alumnae Mariam Zein and Gina Li at the 2014 ITA Regionals. “It felt really good to represent Rutgers in the doubles semifinals, especially being the only unseeded team left,” Muzik said, according to scarletknights.com. “Everybody this weekend had one of our best overall SEE CHAMPIONSHIPS ON PAGE 10
