My Experience with Rutgers Events and Festivals
During my time at Rutgers, I attended a wide variety of events and festivals. From the annual Rutgers Day celebration to the New Jersey Folk Festival, there was never a shortage of things to do on campus. One of my favorite events was the Rutgers Film Co-op/New Jersey Media Arts Center’s annual New Jersey Film Festival. I was always impressed by the diverse range of films being shown, and it was a great opportunity to support local filmmakers.
Another memorable experience was attending the Rutgers Homecoming football game. The atmosphere was electric, and it was amazing to see the entire Rutgers community come together to support the Scarlet Knights. I also enjoyed the pre-game tailgate, which featured food trucks and live music.
