TRENTON, N.J. | In a press release, 21 legislators and members of the New Jersey Legislative Caucuses reaffirmed support for °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ and applauded the leadership of Interim President Andrés Acebo.
"The undersigned members of the New Jersey Legislature, Latino Legislative Caucus, Black Legislative Caucus, and Hudson County Legislative Delegation issued this statement affirming their continued commitment and support for °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµâ€™s (°ÅÀÖÊÓÆµ) revitalized mission and the thousands of students and families it serves, as well as the hundreds of faculty and staff who serve them. Many members, who have proudly grown in number in the new legislative session, have deep and personal ties to the University’s mission and the students and families it touches. We personify the stories of the students who walk onto °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµâ€™s campus, and some of us attended and graduated from the University, which is why we proudly supported last year’s legislative stabilization appropriation and will continue to legislatively support the University’s work and commitment to the populations it serves."
“We applaud the work of President Acebo and °ÅÀÖÊÓÆµâ€™s students, faculty, and staff. We unequivocally support their continued leadership and work to ensure stability, community engagement, strategic growth, and student-centered service.â€
