A new web site serves as an information clearinghouse on deceased members of the Rutgers community.
Faculty and staff are encouraged to visit the site, “In Memoriam,” where family and friends of recently departed members of the Rutgers community can share information with the rest of the university.
The Department of University Relations established the site in response to requests from the Rutgers community for a clearinghouse of information on the passing of colleagues. The site will honor deceased students, faculty, staff, retirees, professors emeriti and other members of the community.
Friends and family members of deceased members of the Rutgers community can request the posting of biographies, tributes, causes of death, funeral and viewing arrangements, gift donations, and web sites with additional information.
The site will link from the student, faculty and staff, and News and Media web pages, all easily accessible from www.rutgers.edu.
Relatives and friends of the deceased can request that information be added to the site by clicking on the link at the bottom of the page, or by calling Jan Stubbs, administrative assistant in Campus Information Services, at 732-932-9342, ext. 2609.
