As Rutgers University celebrates its 250th birthday today, we honor a proud legacy of teaching, research and service that started when our nation was in its infancy and continues to evolve. The Empire State Building will be lit in scarlet in honor of the birthday. Read the story recognizing this moment in history and check out our #Rutgers250 project. Most importantly, join us on Twitter and in person as we mark this occasion with celebrations, fireworks and more across Newark, Camden, New Brunswick and beyond today.
