Rutgers-Camden Alumni Relations

The year, 2007 will mark yet another exciting change in the Rutgers-Camden Reunion:
For the first time in many years, the traditional festivities will not only take place off campus but outside the City of Camden itself. The complete renovation of the Campus Center and dining facilities for the Fall term September 2007 deadline and the construction of the new School of Law addition is the primary reason for this move. Because of the disruption of the Campus only certain major events, such as the Alumni Art Exhibition and Senior Student Art Thesis will be able to be accommodated on Campus. (Stedman Gallery) Other traditional activities and events will be scheduled that day with exhibitions, receptions and alumni performances leading up to the Main Event in the evening in the Boathouse and surrounding tents set up along the banks of the Cooper River.
To help us make this Alumni Reunion the best ever and to reserve your discounted tickets, please
