Christie splits up Rutgers in higher ed overhaul

Gov. Chris Christie announced his plans for the re-organization of the state’s higher education facilities, including splitting up the Rutgers-Camden and Rutgers-New Brunswick campuses.

The plan would: (1) fold a portion of the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) into Rutgers-New Brunswick; (2) allow Rowan University to take over Rutgers-Camden and partner with Cooper University Medical School; and (3) create the Health Sciences University in Newark out of other UMDNJ departments to partner with University Hospital.  (Carroll, PolitickerNJ)
