The Rutgers University School of Law- Camden Alumni Association advances the school, the students and its graduates throughout their lives.
Since its founding in the 1940’s by Anthony J. Perotti ‘43, the Association has grown and prospered. Until recently, it has been governed by a board of 45 members, including six executive officers. These dedicated alums represent a cross-section of the over 9,000 alumni who have passed through the halls of this institution. They meet bi-monthly to tackle such issues as networking, diversity, scholarship, and how to support and promote the law school.
During the past year, the Camden Law Alumni Association has become a chartered member of the Rutgers University Alumni Association which represents the more than 330,000 graduates of the entire University. Now there are no forms to complete and no dues to pay. Upon graduation, you are automatically a member and entitled to all the benefits.
During the academic year, the Camden Law Alumni Association organizes networking events throughout the entire state of New Jersey, as well as in Pennsylvania, New York, Delaware, and Washington, DC. The Association sponsors two award ceremonies that celebrate outstanding graduates: the Arthur E. Armitage Sr. Distinguished Alumni Award and the Joseph M. Nardi Jr. Distinguished Service Award honor graduates who have achieved an extraordinary level of success through their legal and professional expertise, through outstanding service to the Law School, and/or through exemplary community leadership. The Association also participates in the annual all-campus Reunion on the River, helping graduates reconnect with old classmates and share fond memories of their law school days.
Through the generous support of its members, the Rutgers School of Law-Camden Alumni Association provides scholarships based on need and merit to those students who otherwise might not have the opportunity to achieve their goals. These students are recognized and applauded at the annual Nardi Service Award Ceremony, usually held in late January.
The benefits of being a member of the Alumni Association are many and varied. Our alums are loyal and dedicated. They generously help their fellow graduates, the Law School and the students in a variety of ways by volunteering to: be an adjunct faculty member, guest lecturer, moot court judge or coach, student mentor, panelist, etc. On this alumni page, you can register for an event, check the calendar, volunteer your services, update your home and business information or make a gift to the law school.
