The university seeks full support from its alumni and, in return,
offers them a number of services and programs. Rutgers University
Department of Alumni Relations is responsible for working with the more
than 330,000 Rutgers alumni. The mission of the department is to
increase and strengthen alumni support for Rutgers, The State
University of New Jersey, and its schools and colleges, recognizing
that graduates are the institution`s only enduring and permanent
constituency. The department maintains contact with Rutgers alumni,
informing them of the university`s programs and services, in the hopes
that the alumni will continue to support Rutgers in fulfilling its
mission of providing outstanding academic and extracurricular
programming. The department also encourages alumni to continue to
foster their relationship with the university and with their peers by
attending social, cultural, educational, and service-based activities.
There are 19 alumni associations that represent the many undergraduate
and graduate schools within Rutgers. The 19 alumni associations are
wholly represented by the Rutgers University Alumni Federation, which
sponsors universitywide programs such as Homecoming, the Hall of
Distinguished Alumni Awards, the Alumni Meritorious Service Awards,
group travel, and group insurance. Each alumni association sponsors
events and programming based on the interests and goals of their
particular alumni and college. Programs such as scholarships, student
recruitment, career guidance, and social activities are just a few of
the programs in which an alumni association may participate. Active
membership in an alumni association is maintained through a yearly dues
program and members receive special benefits.
The Department
of Alumni Relations provides guidance and administrative services to
the alumni associations, as well as to the network of regional clubs
located throughout the country. One such administrative function is the
maintenance of biographical and address records of alumni. The
university also publishes the Rutgers Magazine for alumni and friends
to keep abreast of news at Rutgers. For more information on the
benefits of alumni association membership, services, alumni news and
events, and much more, visit http://www.alumni.rutgers.edu.
