During his long and legendary tenure as a professor of engineering
mechanics at Rutgers University, James Jeremiah Slade was a noted
researcher, a brilliant mathematician, and beloved by the students he taught
for 36 years. Slade, who retired in 1964, received worldwide acclaim for
his discoveries on the mechanics of turbulent sedimentation and self-
excited oscillations and is credited with attracting many of the researchers
who brought prominence to the School of Engineering, as well as to the
university. The James J. Slade Scholars carry on a tradition of excellence in
scholarship and research as exemplified by Slade.
Educational Opportunity Fund
The Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF) program is one of the nation's
most comprehensive and successful state-supported efforts to provide access
to higher education for economically and educationally disadvantaged
students. Aligned with the missions of the State of New Jersey, Rutgers
University, and the School of Engineering, the EOF program fosters the
educational, personal, and professional development of talented, highly
motivated NJ students who are interested in a career in engineering and
come from educationally and financially disadvantaged backgrounds.
Through a myriad of programs, and working with faculty and staff across
the SoE and the larger university to enhance students’ educational, personal
and professional development, the SoE EOF program recruits, retains and
graduates a diverse and socially, culturally, academically and professionally
competent population, while also building awareness of the field of
engineering for students, parents and educators.
14About the Student Speaker
Vineet R. Shenoy, from West Windsor, NJ studied electrical and computer
engineering as well as computer science at Rutgers. During his time on
campus, he has performed research in active authentication under the
supervision of Dr. Vishal M. Patel, as well a research into spectrum sharing
technologies at the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST), where he was selected as a plenary speaker for his work. He has
served as the president and industry-mentorship program chair of the
Rutgers Engineering Honors Council, the engineering futures chair of the
engineering honor society Tau Beta Pi, as an instructor for the First-Year
Interest Group Seminars (FIGS) program, and as a columnist for the school
newspaper "The Daily Targum." He is a member of the Phi Beta Kappa,
Eta Kappa Nu, and Cap and Skull honor societies, and is a recipient of the
Chancellor's Leadership Award.
15About Rutgers School of Engineering
Chartered as Queen’s College in 1766, Rutgers was the eighth institution
founded prior to the Revolutionary War. In 1825, the name was changed
to Rutgers College in honor of Colonel Henry Rutgers, a veteran of the
Revolution, “in gratitude for his numerous services” to the institution.
Under the land-grant program of 1864, instruction in agriculture,
engineering and military education was introduced, and a program leading
to the Bachelor of Science degree was established. The College of Arts and
Sciences and the College of Agriculture and Engineering, designated separate
units in 1914, were joined in 1918 by the New Jersey College for Women
(which later became Douglass College). In 1917, the state legislature named
the Rutgers Scientific School, which included the Colleges of Agriculture and
Engineering, as the state university of New Jersey, and in a similar action in
1945 all the units of Rutgers and the Agricultural Experimentation Station
became truly the state university.
Engineering at Rutgers dates back to 1864. Brevet Major Josiah Holcomb
Kellogg, an 1860 graduate of West Point, was the first professor of
engineering. The initial program, primarily civil engineering, produced
a graduating class of seven in 1868. The first professor of electrical
engineering was appointed in 1903, and in 1908 the Department of
Mechanical Engineering was organized. In 1902 an act of state legislature
established a ceramics department which became part of the College of
Engineering in 1945.
The College of Engineering as a coordinate division of the university was
created in 1914 and the Engineering Experiment Station was established in
1926. In 1999, the College of Engineering was renamed to the School of
Engineering to reflect the comprehensive nature of our programs.
The School of Engineering now includes seven undergraduate and graduate
departments, including Biomedical Engineering, Chemical and Biochemical
Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Electrical and Computer
Engineering, Industrial and Systems Engineering, Materials Science and
Engineering and Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. In addition,
undergraduate programs are offered in Applied Sciences in Engineering
(which includes Packaging Engineering) and Bioenvironmental Engineering.
16The Academic Costume
The wearing of academic dress dates back to the early days of the oldest
universities in the world. In the American Council on Education’s book
entitled American Universities and Colleges, it is suggested that “Gowns
may have been counted necessary for warmth in the unheated buildings
frequented by medieval scholars. Hoods seem to have served to cover the
tonsured head. . . .”
Throughout the years, European universities have continued to show great
diversity in their academic dress. American universities, on the other hand,
when they decided to adopt academic dress, immediately established a code
of regulations which today is followed by almost all American institutions.
The establishment of this code has made it possible to distinguish the
bachelors, masters, and doctors and, at the same time, recognize the
university which has given the degree.
The bachelor’s gown has pointed sleeves and is worn closed. The master’s
gown, worn open or closed, has oblong sleeves, the front part of which
frequently is cut away at the elbow. The doctor’s gown has bell-shaped
sleeves. It is worn open or closed. Cotton poplin or similar material is used
for the bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and rayon or silk ribbed material is
used for the doctor’s degree.
At Rutgers, members of the Board of Governors and Board of Trustees,
as well as those who hold a doctoral degree from the university, wear the
Rutgers gown, which is scarlet with black velvet front panels framed on the
outer edge with gold cord braid. The velvet panels are embroidered with a
crown and the year 1766 at the neck, signifying the university's founding as
one of the original colonial colleges under King George III of England.
The hoods vary in size: 48 inches for the doctor’s degree, 42 inches for
the master’s, and 36 inches for the bachelor’s. All hoods are lined in silk
in the academic color or colors of the institution conferring the degree. If
the institution has more than one color, the colors are shown in divisions
using chevrons. The binding or edge of the hood is usually made of velvet
in the color designating the subject in which the degree was granted. Black
mortarboards are worn for all degrees.
Some of the colors in the binding of the hood are: maize, Agriculture; white,
Arts and Letters; orange, Engineering; purple, Law; lemon, Library Service;
green, Medicine; light blue, Education; olive, Pharmacy; blue, Philosophy;
gold Science; and citron, Social Work.
The color or colors of the lining of the hood for the nine colonial colleges
are: scarlet, Rutgers; crimson, Harvard; green-gold-silver, William and Mary;
blue, Yale; red-blue, Pennsylvania; orange-black, Princeton; light blue-white,
Columbia; brown, Brown; and green-white, Dartmouth.

18On the Banks of the Old Raritan
(Rutgers Alma Mater)
From far and near we came to Rutgers,
And resolved to learn all that we can;
And so we settled down,
In that noisy college town,
On the banks of the old Raritan.
Refrain:
On the banks of the old Raritan (my friends)
Where old Rutgers evermore shall stand,
For has she not stood
Since the time of the flood,
On the banks of the old Raritan.
Then sing aloud to Alma Mater
And keep the scarlet in the van'
For with her motto high
Rutgers' name shall never die
On the banks of the old Raritan.
The Bells Must Ring
(Rutgers ‘Fight Song’)
March, (wo)men of Rutgers
Down the field today.
March to another score,
Forward to the fray;
Fight, men of Rutgers
As in days gone by
Fight! For the Scarlet Flag over the rest must fly.
Keep Rutgers colors to the fore
For they must win so fight, fight, fight!
And we'll advance some more to score,
The Rutgers flag flies high tonight, alright, alright
We'll fling the Scarlet Banner out,
And Rutgers (wo)men will fight, fight, fight, fight, fight;
The bells of Queens each victory shout
The bells of Queens must ring tonight.

And Rutgers (wo)men will fight, fight, fight, fight, fight;
The bells of Queens each victory shout
The bells of Queens must ring tonight.
