Dear Diana,

President Obama said it best in his recent Commencement Address to the Rutgers Class of 2016:

“Every day, tens of thousands of students come here, to this intellectual melting pot, where ideas and cultures flow together among what might just be America’s most diverse student body. Here in New Brunswick, you can debate philosophy with a classmate from South Asia in one class, and then strike up a conversation on the EE Bus with a first-generation Latina student from Jersey City, before sitting down for your psych group project with a veteran who’s going to school on the Post-9/11 GI Bill.  

America converges here.”

The President typically accepts about three commencement invitations a year. He chose Rutgers to help us celebrate our 250th anniversary and to showcase to the world that, in his words,“…Rutgers has evolved into one of the finest research institutions in America.”

Consider these recent student success stories:

  • Revan Sopher, a senior double-major in engineering and computer science, turned fellowships with NASA and venture capital giant KPCB into a job at Google.
  • Maggie Morash scored a Goldwater Scholarship last year as a junior, and then as a senior she captained the women’s soccer team to a berth in the NCAA national semifinal.
  • Daily Targum editor Dan Corey, a sophomore, was granted a pre-commencement interview with President Obama because during a visit to the White House last month he had the guts to do what many of us wouldn’t: ask.

You too can become part of this revolutionary university. Our summer tour program is now accepting reservations. We encourage you to visit us this summer and experience Rutgers for yourself.

The President of the United States made time in his busy schedule to visit us. Will you?

Sincerely,
Deborah H. Epting
Associate Vice President
Enrollment Management
