Class of 1969 — 50th Milestone


In 2019, the Class of 1969 surpassed its $500,000 goal and raised a total of $1,176,222.

Total Raised: $1,176,222
Goal: $500,000

Class Gift Initiatives

Beautification of Voorhees Mall, increased Class of 1969 Memorial Scholarship Endowment, and supported Office of Veterans and Military Programs and Services

Goal Amount: $250,000
Amount Raised: $270,414

The Class of 1969 set an aspirational class gift goal of $250,000, to fund three areas:

1. Voorhees Mall beautification and new walkway linking the mall to Paul Robeson Plaza ($200,000)

Voorhees Mall is one of the most beautiful areas on the College Avenue campus, is home to the Willie the Silent statue and is framed by many historic academic buildings. Willie the Silent was enhanced with an expanded plaza, new benches, walkways, LED lighting, and tree trimming. Our class was recognized with a plaque in a semi-circle of raised plantings at the center of the mall. In addition, a new walkway links Voorhees Mall and Willie the Silent to Paul Robeson Plaza which was dedicated in April 2019.

2. Supported the Office of Veteran and Military Programs and Services ($40,000)

Because many members of the Class of 1969 served in ROTC, were drafted, or enlisted and served in Vietnam and other conflicts, we supported the Office of Veteran and Military Programs and Services. The office is dedicated to ensuring a smooth transition to college and providing a supportive environment for our students who are U.S. military veterans. Founded in 2010, the office serves 1,880 veterans (at all three Rutgers locations) and is a key element in Rutgers’ ranking in the top four nationally among four-year colleges and universities as “Best for Vets” by Military Times.

3. Increased the Endowment of the Class of 1969 Memorial Scholarship ($10,000)

Our class has two endowed scholarships: the Class of 1969 Scholarship Award, established on the occasion of our 25th reunion, endowed at almost $500,000; and the more recent Class of 1969 Memorial Scholarship, established on our 45th reunion, endowed at $126,000. Together, our scholarships support honors students studying at the School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering, the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, and the Mason Gross School of the Arts.
