Livingston Campus, originally known as Kilmer Campus, is one of the five sub-campuses that make up Rutgers University's New Brunswick/Piscataway area campus. The campus was originally built to house Livingston College. It is a large campus, the majority of its land is the Rutgers Ecological Preserve. Most of the campus is within the boundaries of Piscataway, but parts extend into Highland Park and Edison. == Campus history == University buildings were erected on the Kilmer Campus (later renamed Livingston Campus) in Piscataway, between Metlars and Cedar Lanes starting in 1969, with the creation of Livingston College. The land had formerly been part of the U.S. Army's Camp Kilmer, a staging area during World War II. The army reserve continued using a small part of the original army campus until 2009. The Livingston College campus currently sits on 540-acres acquired by Rutgers in 1964.〔http://makerspace.rutgers.edu/content/history-camp-kilmer〕(History of Camp Kilmer ) A large amount of parking was created on this campus, mainly because the Louis Brown Athletic Center served as the temporary home of the New Jersey Nets basketball team from 1977 to 1981. Student center facilities were initially located in Tillett Hall. A Livingston Student Center opened in 1986. In the Fall of 2007, Rutgers University consolidated the undergraduate liberal arts colleges in the New Brunswick-Piscataway area, including Livingston College, to a School of Arts and Sciences, but Livingston Campus continues to serve the Rutgers community. Currently, many first year students reside on Livingston Campus. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Livingston Campus (Rutgers University)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
