No more dues? How can I be a member? How can I help?

In order to participate in the new Rutgers University Alumni Association the George H. Cook Community Alumni Association has agreed to cease collecting membership dues as of July 1, 2008. The association will continue to serve all alumni of the Cook College, C.A.E.S., the College of Agriculture and the future S.E. community. Active members can vote and set policy. Due to this change in funding, communication will primarily be electronic. To make sure you get important information and event invitations you can and should update your contact information.

New Name, New Look, Same People

At the June 2008 annual meeting of the Cook/CAES Alumni Association the membership voted to adopt the title of George H. Cook Community Alumni Association. This logo was also adopted and is intended to maintain a visual link to the former College of Agriculture, College of Agriculture and Environmental Science and Cook College as the alumni association moves to embrace the future alumni of the School of Environmental and Biological Science and those students residing on the George H. Cook campus.

Weather on Campus

A plan for Cook and C.A.E.S. Alumni, working with the new

Rutgers University Alumni Association

The Cook Alumni Association was pleased to participate in the 90th Ag Field day and our volunteers enjoyed talking to many members of the Cook Community.

Several issues of concern were raised.

You may know that Rutgers has reorganized its Department of Alumni Relations and will significantly change the way it interacts with traditional alumni associations, including the Cook Alumni Association. This has led to a number of misunderstandings and negative rumors. Some people worry that reunions are canceled, that programs have been disbanded and even that SEBS students will not receive a Red Oak seedling at graduation. For details about these issues and others please read the files below. To contact an Alumni Association volunteer email cookalumni@aol.com.
