THE CAMPAIGN FOR TCNJ
Boon for chemistry
"With the new chemistry lab, we'll be looked at as one of
the top 10 undergraduate institutions in the nation for
chemistry. It will last a lifetime and keep giving back to
each generation."
Abby O'Connor, chemistry professor
Gateway to everything good
"My parents, South American immigrants, didn't have the
money to send me to college. I feel like the Cooperman
Scholarship is the gateway to everything good that is
happening."
Sherida Hinkson '20, accounting
Advantages for future teachers
"We use TCNJ students as tutors in our reading clinic,
where they learn to work with students who have dyslexia.
For a teacher candidate to have this kind of training makes
them highly employable."
Heather Tellier, director, TCNJ Dyslexia Initiative
Makes me a better nurse
"Teaching Smart Nutrition and Conditioning for Kids helps
set up a better foundation for children in Trenton to grow
up to be healthy adults. e experience has been essential to
my education, allowing me to go out into the community
and do work I usually wouldn't do."
Edric Vites '17, nursing
