Distinguished Alumni

Created in 2001, the Wall of Distinguished Business Alumni recognizes the achievements in business of the graduates of Rutgers, The State university of New Jersey and those schools that have since been incorporated therein. It ensures that the school maintains a permanent link with its past while inspiring current and future students to achieve.

The Wall of Distinguished Business Alumni, which was made possible by the generosity of Dick and Barbara Romano and the AT&T Foundation, is a 4 foot by 6 foot cast bronze plaque that is the centerpiece of the lobby of Engelhard Hall - the Newark Home of Rutgers Business School's graduate and undergraduate programs. Up to four plaques are placed on the wall annually. Alumni are selected through a nomination process.
