| Rutgers Reflects the World |
“The dynamic nature of America’s state universities takes a vivid energy from the character of New Jersey, with its ever-refreshed ethnic and immigrant mix, its variety of urbanizations and pine barrens - all packed into a small area and held together by a peculiar set of balances. New Jersey is close enough to the city of New York to draw gargantuan energy, but out of the urban belly: longing and revulsion from a little distance are in some ways more poetic than mere presence.” – Robert Pinsky, RC ’62; Poet Laureate of the US 1997-2000 |

| Why Rutgers? |
I’m a Jersey guy. In my high school, the Rutgers name suffered from chronic under-appreciation… but there’s something inspiring about the underdog. Rutgers- like New Jersey itself- breeds excellence.
It takes us dusty lumps of coal and squeezes us into diamonds- but it takes plenty of time and pressure. Oh but why did I choose Rutgers? It was the cheapest and my brother was already at Lehigh, so I felt bad for my parents.

A price tag, because I don’t have an iPod. But I’ve been listening to a lot of Say Anything, Big D and the Kids Table, Presidents of the USA, Chili Peppers, and Bosstones.
