HISTORY OF GSEAA

In August 1931 a committee composed of graduate students of the School of Education were appointed to look into the advisability of forming an Alumni Association of the School of Education of Rutgers University. The committee was invested with the power to proceed with plans for organizing such an association, if it deemed wise to do so. During the year several meetings were held. After a careful survey of the field, it was decided that such an organization would be most practical. By-laws were prepared and presented to the President and Trustees of Rutgers University at their annual meeting in June 1932 and the Alumni Association for the School of Education was founded.


The organization was inactive during the years of World War II and was reactivated in 1952 and since then has continued to be an active and visible professional organization representing all graduates of the School of Education and the Graduate School of Education.
