Welcome to Rutgers Day
Rutgers has a worldwide reputation for excellence, but its roots are right here in New Jersey.
Every day, in many ways, Rutgers touches the lives of people throughout the state. At Rutgers
Day, a wonderful new tradition, we celebrate these connections and reaffirm our commitment
to the people we serve. We’re delighted that you have chosen to spend a festive day at your
state university—and we hope you return again and again.
Richard L. McCormick, President
General Information
Campus Greeters
These specially trained Rutgers students are easy to recognize in their neon-orange T-shirts. You can rely on
them to answer all your questions and point you in the right direction. Our Campus Greeters are the resident
experts on the zones they roam and are great travel guides with their tear-off map pads and encyclopedic
knowledge of Rutgers.

Visit the information tents on each campus to ask questions, get directions, pick up campus maps, and request
first aid and other assistance.
Rutgers Day Bus Loop
The free Rutgers Day Bus Loop runs continuously to the Busch, College Avenue, Cook/Douglass, and
Livingston campuses, with stops in downtown New Brunswick. Please note that only official guide dogs for the
seeing or hearing impaired are allowed on Rutgers buses. See the facing page for a transportation map.
First Aid and Emergency Services
Assistance with first aid and other emergencies is available at the information tents as well as from Rutgers Day
