According to Gov. Chris Christie, Rutgers-Camden will not be keeping it's name after the school merges with Rowan University.

 

The students, faculty, and 13,000 online petition signatures are still not enough to keep the name "Rutgers-Camden".

 

According to The Press of Atlantic City,  "The plan has been criticized for removing the ability of South Jersey students to get Rutgers degrees and for diluting Rutgers’ South Jersey brand by merging it with lesser-known Rowan. But proponents applaud the idea of creating a second major research university in the state, this one centered in growing South Jersey."

 

What do you think?  If you could name a University in South Jersey, what you name it?
