Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. is the first intercollegiate Greek-letter fraternity established at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York on December 4, 1906 by seven college men who recognized the need for a strong bond of Brotherhood among African descendants in this country. The visionary founders, known as the “Jewels” of the Fraternity, are Henry Arthur Callis, Charles Henry Chapman, Eugene Kinckle Jones, George Biddle Kelley, Nathaniel Allison Murray, Robert Harold Ogle, and Vertner Woodson Tandy.

The Fraternity initially served as a study and support group for minority students who faced racial prejudice, both educationally and socially, at Cornell. The Jewel founders and early leaders of the Fraternity succeeded in laying a firm foundation for Alpha Phi Alpha’s principles of scholarship, fellowship, good character, and the uplifting of humanity.

Alpha Phi Alpha has long stood at the forefront of the African-American community’s fight for civil rights through leaders such as: W.E.B. DuBois, Adam Clayton Powell, Jr., Edward Brooke, Martin Luther King, Jr., Thurgood Marshall, Andrew Young, William Gray, Paul Robeson, and many others. True to its form as the “first of firsts,”

The Iota Rho chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was founded at its chapter seat Newark College of Engineering in Newark New Jersey (currently New Jersey Institute of Technology – NJIT) on May 23, 1974 by thirteen strong and ambitious black men. The chapter however was founded with the vision of serving all schools with low minority populations in the Northern NJ area. Thus the founding line contained students from various schools within Essex County.

The 413th chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity Inc. was encouraged by the then director of the Educational Opportunity Program, Brother Melvin Thompson. The founding line affectionately known as “The Super Mean Thirteen” was hand selected by Brother Melvin Thompson and E.O.P. counselor Brother Clinton Dozier.

From its humble beginnings in the year of 1974, to its continued excellence into the new millennium, The Iota Rho Chapter holds a firm tradition to lead, serve and distinguish young college brothers through academics, and fellowship.

February 1969: The Black Organization of Students staged a “Locked Down” of Conklin Hall at Rutgers University - Newark for 72 hours and threw a banner over the front of the building which read “Liberation Hall”. They demanded that the Rutgers’ Board of Governors and the President increase the amount of Black students accepted into the University. At that time, 2% of the Newark Campus’s student body was African-American while 75% of Newark Public School System student’s were African-American.

Faced with this inequity, the members of BOS led the largest student movement by any racial group ever before seen at any of Rutgers University’s three campuses. Their actions led to the creation of the Educational Opportunity Fund Program at Rutgers Newark which, in turn, increased enrollment of African-Americans University-wide. Rutgers University – Newark currently has held the title for the ‘Most Diverse University in America’ for 11 Years (US News & World Report).

The Historic Black Organization of Students is an organization dedicated to serving the African Diaspora community at the University and in Newark through advocacy, community service, and a wide range of student-led programs.

Mission
The Hindu civilization has an unbroken chain of several thousands of years of history, culture, and heritage. The Hindu thought is a knowledge base that has been collected since the ancient Vedic period and is timeless and applicable to all of humanity. Despite its huge following, rich history, and numerous contributions to the human race, the Hindu way of life, or Sanatan Dharma, is perhaps the least understood among the major religions today.

One out of every six people follows what is broadly termed the Hindu way of life, encompassing religion, culture, and heritage. YUVA stands for Youth for Unity, Virtues, and Action, but it also means youth in Sanskrit. It conveys our vision and mission in a succinct manner. Hindu YUVA is about giving an immersive and experiential exposure to the Hindu way of life to the campus community in a friendly and positive atmosphere. We encourage maintaining a Hindu cultural identity in harmony with the larger community.

The mission of The Hindu YUVA at Rutgers University-Newark is to bring the Hindu student community together, spread the message of oneness, and explain the importance of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (The world as one family). As Hinduism is one of the largest and oldest religions in the world, we believe that this main message of oneness and equality should be spread throughout the Rutgers-Newark community. We hope to create a young generation that is strong and united. We would like to create a stronger youth power by providing students with virtues. We would like to create a robust Hindu presence and voice at Rutgers University-Newark by bringing students and different like-minded organizations together. Hindu YUVA will act as a bridge between the Hindu students and the administration, and the Hindu community outside Rutgers University Newark.

We believe that our mission coincides with Rutgers-Newark’s commitment to making diversity a way of university life where all members of our community feel welcome, valued, and respected. Hindu YUVA will provide a safe space for people who identify as Hindu to practice Sanatan Dharma and speak their minds. Also, it will be a medium and an outlet for spreading awareness about Hinduism to those who want to learn more about it. Rutgers-Newark students, faculty, and visitors will find resources here to learn about Hinduism and its challenges. While also connecting with peers and receiving support from like-minded individuals.

Our activities put a lot of emphasis on team building, leadership qualities, and character development. The idea is not to merely organize events but to be the agents of change by developing essential personality traits such as physical and intellectual abilities, interpersonal skills, leading by example, and developing empathy for others regardless of background.

Young Hindu Americans carry a great deal of responsibility to share this culture, preserve its meaning, and practice its universal values as the inheritors of this way of life. Hindu YUVA derives its inspiration from this ancient knowledge and understands the mammoth task lying in front of the young Hindu Americans. Hindu YUVA aims to provide a platform to preserve, practice, promote, and protect Hindu Dharma by bringing together Hindu college students and young professionals across the United States.

The Latin American Association of Rutgers University-Newark affirms, uplifts, and empowers Latinx identities while highlighting the complexity, diversity, and resilience of the people in the mainland and diasporic communities. The organization honors all manifestations of Latinidad across different racial, social, sexual, religious, and gender expressions—and prioritizes a pan-Latin American, intersectional approach to confronting and dismantling stigmas surrounding challenges faced by Latinx individuals stemming from pervasive systems of colonialism, racism, patriarchy, and more. Through open discussion, activities, games, and community service, we nurture a sense of kinship, pride, comfort, and solidarity among all students. The Latin American Association encourages the entire student body to object to all forms of oppression they encounter within their own lives, while uniting with others across all cultures to become leaders in the global movements for human rights and social justice.

Our mission aligns closely with Rutgers University–Newark’s commitment to social justice, diversity, community engagement, and academic excellence. We aim to build a supportive environment where students from all backgrounds—especially those historically excluded from healthcare—can access mentorship, opportunities, and encouragement as they pursue meaningful careers in medicine and the health professions. Our chapter’s goals center around seven core pillars: fostering unity, uplifting Latino student voices, promoting academic and professional success, educating our community on Latino health issues, advocating for health equity, expanding leadership opportunities, and encouraging meaningful volunteerism within Newark’s communities. The organization's national and regional events provide guidance on the MCAT, research involvement, clinical exposure, and the overall medical school application process. As a PLUS chapter, we highly encourage participation in the Annual LMSA Northeast Regional Conference, where students attend and learn about advocacy, attend clinical skills workshops, listen to physician-led discussions, engage in professional networking spaces, meet with medical school admission offices, and even get a chance to present their research. In everything we do, LMSA+ stands out by offering culturally grounded mentorship, advocacy, education, and empowerment. We are more than a pre-health organization, we are a family dedicated to transforming healthcare, one future Latino physician at a time.

The RU-N Metaverse Club is dedicated to engaging and promoting student and community involvement within the metaverse while fostering education, innovation, and collaboration across the Rutgers University-Newark campus. The Metaverse Club recognizes the isolation of RBS from what many consider to be “main campus”. Our organization hopes to serve as a bridge that connects students from Rutgers Business School to the other academic schools on the Rutgers - Newark campus. The Metaverse Club recognizes that the merging of business, technology, and creative thinking is essential for navigating the evolving digital landscape.
Our mission is the commitment to bringing light to emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, virtual reality, cryptocurrencies, and other Web3 platforms. We recognize that there is a significant knowledge gap and stigma surrounding these technologies among both students and faculty. Through educational panels, workshops, and hands-on demonstrations, we aim to transform the apprehension among students into understanding and a more informed student body. Our events are not specifically designed to showcase technology, but also to question its ethics, security concerns, and practical applications in an academic and professional context.
The club prioritizes learning through our research initiative, which provides undergraduate students with opportunities typically reserved and considered for graduate-level study, such as masters or PhD programs. By having semester-long research projects, under the guidance of faculty advisors and participating in mock dissertation defenses, we offer members real experience in the world of academia and scholarly presentation. This emphasis on research distinguishes our organization by creating pathways for students to contribute meaningful work to the metaverse field while developing critical thinking and analytical skills that are transferrable to any career path.

For students, this college chapter of the NAACP will provide opportunities to learn about systemic issues affecting people of color, analyze the roots of social injustice, and directly apply their knowledge through activism, service, and leadership development.

To obtain the goals of our mission, we will prioritize four methods as seen in the NAACP national bylaws: direct action, litigation, legislation, and political action. Through direct action such as education, demonstrations, workshops, and other community engagement initiatives, we will apply the pressure needed to mobilize supporters for change. Our litigation will challenge discriminatory practices and defend the civil rights of marginalized groups from a legal perspective. Drafting, advocating, and supporting legislation that promotes and sustains equality while also eliminating systemic injustices at local, state, and national levels will be the main purpose of our legislative work. Last but not least, political action will help encourage voter registration and civic participation to ensure that communities have an even stronger voice in the political process. Each one of these methods will allow the Rutgers-Newark Chapter of the NAACP to make positive changes in the community and be able to work hand in hand with other student organizations and the schools on campus to strengthen our on-campus impact and to remind each other that our advocacy is collaborative and never isolated.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Rutgers University-Newark Chapter, is our steadfast commitment to driving real, systemic change that goes beyond the campus of Rutgers. While many student orgs focus on specific majors or social connections, we prioritize empowering students to be the change they want to see in their community by giving them the knowledge and resources to pursue the expansion of civil and social rights. Our work will be the continuation of foundational steps to ending discrimination in all forms and enhancing the well-being, educational opportunities, and economic security of people of color. The RU-N chapter of the NAACP is dedicated to long-term change and equipping our fellow students with the skills to drive that change. Our organization will not just be another club on campus; it will be a movement that welcomes all students who desire to see a better future.

All activities will be conducted in accordance with NAACP policies and university regulations. We will ensure that our work reflects transparency, accountability, equity, and the highest ethical standards.

The National Lawyers Guild is an association dedicated to the need for basic change in the structure of our political and economic system. We seek to unite the lawyers, law students, legal workers, and jailhouse lawyers of America in an organization which shall function as an effective political and social force in the service of the people, to the end that human rights shall be regarded as more sacred than property interests.

Our aim is to bring together all those who regard adjustments to new conditions as more
important than the veneration of precedent; who recognize the importance of safeguarding and extending the rights of workers, women, farmers, and minority groups upon whom the welfare of the entire nation depends; who seek actively to eliminate racism; who work to maintain and protect our civil rights and liberties in the face of persistent attacks upon them; and who look upon the law as an instrument for the protection of the people, rather than for their repression.

Omega Phi Chi is a multicultural sorority that was established on November 9, 1988 at Rutgers University in New Jersey by eight women of Asian, African-American, and Latina descent. Our eight founding mothers were an active group of young women leaders who felt the absence of any organization on the Rutgers campus that spoke to their needs across diverse backgrounds, distinct cultural roots and a commitment to womanhood. They came together to found a multicultural sorority, a different type of organization, that would not be categorized by ethnicity or culture.



Omega Phi Chi is above the stereotypical notions of sorority as a purely social endeavor. We have created a space for women to come together as a true sisterhood and support system that is strong and empowering. Our sisterhood cultivates leaders backed by the support of an entire organization of women committed to making sure we each have a voice and place at the table in a society where women and minorities continue to be underrepresented across all fields.
