Received the 2016 Book Gold for the Circle of Excellence Awards from the Council for Advancement and Support of Education In 2016, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, will mark its 250th anniversary. Chartered in 1766 as the all-male Queen's College in New Brunswick, New Jersey, the school was renamed Rutgers College in 1825 to honor Revolutionary War veteran and trustee Colonel Henry Rutgers. Rutgers's history begins in the political maelstrom of colonial America; hurtles through the Civil War, the Industrial Revolution, and two world wars; wrestles with social upheaval in the late twentieth-century; and emerges in the current fast-paced global digital age. Today, Rutgers, a leading public research university and a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities, is home to more than 65,000 students each year and 24,000 faculty and staff in New Brunswick, Newark, Camden, and other locations around the state. Rutgers: A 250th Anniversary Portrait brings to life two and a half centuries of excellence in higher education. At its "sestercentennial," Rutgers stands as the nation's eighth oldest institution of higher learning-one of only nine colonial colleges established before the American Revolution-and boasts an unparalleled tradition of meeting the challenges of each new generation. In celebration of this auspicious milestone, this limited edition commemorative book includes an eclectic mix of historical narrative, archival artifacts, and personal stories and memories from alumni. This beautifully illustrated book, with over 200 images of new and archival photographs, revisits people and programs, achievements and discoveries of Rutgers's illustrious past with an eye toward the next 250 years. Rutgers also offers a unique perspective on the University with contributions by renowned alumni, prominent faculty members, and University leaders-names you're sure to recognize-all capturing the fascinating history of Rutgers and its potential in the next 250 years.
