Commuters have a "campus" of their own
located on the second floor of the Douglass College Center. Facilities
for commuters include a large lounge used for programs and day-to-day
informal gatherings with friends; kitchen facilities; and the commuter
offices. The commuter coordinator provides assistance with personal,
administrative, and academic concerns of commuting students.
Upper-class students called Commuter Peer Advisers are assigned to new
commuter students to help them adjust to life at Rutgers.
The
Commuter Activities Board, elected by the students, plans social events
and programs designed specifically for nonresident students. Commuter
students also are represented on the student government assembly, the
Douglass College Center Governing Board, and the Safety Committee.
Assistance in finding off-campus housing is available through the
Off-Campus Housing Office in Stonier Hall. Assistance with parking
matters is available through the parking office at 26 Mine Street.
