About the School of Communication and InformationThe School of Communication and Information is a dynamic center of learning at the heart of Rutgers-New Brunswick on the College Avenue campus. Founded in 1982, the school’s research and teaching focus on communication, social and new media, library and information science, journalism and media studies, and information technology. The School’s competitive and renowned programs prepare students for engaged careers available today and developing for tomorrow. Recent initiatives in the school focus on health and wellness; global media, community, and democracy; social media interaction and collaborative design; and leadership, organizations, and policy.

The school is home to three academic departments—Communication, Journalism and Media Studies, and Library and Information Science. We offer undergraduate programs in Communication, Information Technology and Informatics, and Journalism and Media Studies, all leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree; a minor in Digital Communication, Information, and Media and a minor in Gender and Media; master's programs in Communication and Media and in Information (accredited by the American Library Association); an interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in Communication, Information, and Library Studies; and continuing education programs. SC&I has offices, classrooms, and laboratories in New Brunswick at 4 Huntington Street, the adjacent DeWitt House at 185 College Avenue, the SC&I Annex and Friedrich House at 192 College Avenue, Huntington House at 184 College Avenue, and Richardson House at 1 Richardson Street. Computer, multimedia, broadcast, information organization, and communication interaction laboratories and facilities are available for the use of its students and faculty.

Among the distinguished faculty of the school have been Fulbright Fellows, Woodrow Wilson Fellows, and Annenberg Scholars; Fellows of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and American Council of Learned Societies; recipients of the Hiet Prize in the Humanities and awards from the Academy of Management, American Society for Information Science, Association of Computing Machinery, the Journal of the American Society for Information Science, and the National Communication Association; and recipients of Rutgers University awards for teaching, research, and service, among other honors.

On the Banks of the Old Raritan(The Rutgers Alma Mater)

Written by Howard Fuller, 1873

Verse I

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.

Chorus

On the banks of the old Raritan, my friends, Where old Rutgers ever more shall stand,

For has she not stood Since the time of the flood,

On the banks of the old Raritan.

Verse V

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.

Chorus

On the banks of the old Raritan, my friends, Where old Rutgers ever more shall stand,

For has she not stood Since the time of the flood,

On the banks of the old Raritan.
