Talk:History of Rutgers University

message: This article, like the general article on the general article on Rutgers University, studiously avoids explaining why Rutgers University was nationalized. —SlamDiego 08:16, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps you aren't familiar with what nationalization is, in which case you might find the link to the article on nationalization (provided in my original comment above and in this comment as well) useful. Rutgers was a private university, and it is now the state university. —SlamDiego 21:32, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Major Failure 

message: The article is not up to date. All the four separate colleges have been reorganized. Livingston and Douglas and Rutgers colleges have been merged into the School of Arts and Sciences. What is left of Livingston and Douglas are just Residential Colleges, i.e., just more or less a social organization for the students who lived in those campuses. Basically, there is now only Rutgers and all degrees are conferred by Rutgers.
Cook College is now called The School of Environmental and Biological Sciences (although the campus is still called Cook Campus.
Considering this is the history of Rutgers, there is no mention of Douglas, Cook, and LIvingston, the big merger of faculty in 1976, the fact that Rutgers until 1976 was a mens only school, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.197.174.59 (talk) 01:09, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article isn't up to Date or Very Complete 

message: So was Rutgers offered membership in the Ivy League when that organization was getting started? That's one question a lot of people will come here wanting to have resolved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.10.198.111 (talk) 22:48, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
