A Virtual Gathering and Networking Event

Hosted by Rutgers School of Engineering Dean Tom Farris 
With Special Guest Jonathan Holloway, President of Rutgers University
 
5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. EST
 
Rutgers University School of Engineering presents a virtual evening of networking and community with alumni, students, industry partners, and friends. With the goal of connecting during these unusual times, it is also an opportunity to recognize the challenges many of our students are facing. The event will raise critical funds to support student needs such as tuition assistance, the purchase of books, and remote learning equipment, along with basic living costs that impact successful learning.
 
Please join us in this important effort.
