I was a journalism major and it was a great school. I took the bus from West Trenton and often walked home to Carteret Avenue. We put the school paper out at night and I would take the bus home very late but it was so safe that no one worried when I walked from my stop to my home. Those were the good days.

It extolled the benefits of getting a class A business education right here in the capitol city of Trenton.<br />The cover depicted a pretty coed siting on the grass cover lawn at the college. When you looked carefully, you recognize it is really Stacy Park pre Rt. 129 expressway.<br />I guess it proved they had a super "Marketing course"'<br />After the big war, many GI's matriculated here, and they soon expanded classrooms to prefab barracks like buildings on Model Ave. just off No. Clinton near the Swamp Angle.<br />Do you remember when they had a football team? <br />They have come a long way baby!<br /><br />Mike KuzmaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
