With the opening of every fall semester comes a flurry of news related to the release of various national rankings of colleges and universities. At The College of New Jersey, as is the norm at most top academic schools, many look forward to seeing where we stack up each year.
Those who talk of the lazy days of summer surely are not referring to life on TCNJ’s campus. The lucky few who spend their summer vacationing might be surprised to know that campus is usually bustling throughout summer’s dog days. 
On board for the fall 2006 semester is 2005 New Jersey gubernatorial candidate Doug Forrester. Forrester is teaching a First Seminar titled, "Can What is Morally Wrong be Politically Right?" on Tueasdy evenings.
With energy prices soaring sky high on a national level, The College of New Jersey began an effort earlier this year to reduce the amount of energy needed to operate its offices, residence halls, and facilities.
The College is proud to announce receipt of the largest donation in the institution’s history. The $5 million gift annuity from Tom and Carol Loser will support TCNJ’s School of Nursing, Health, and Exercise Science. It will also honor Carol by naming the dean’s position in the school after her, a tribute in conjunction with the couple’s 25th wedding anniversary.
