Abstract
Service has been at the root of Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, since the early 1900s. In 1917, when the state was suffering from a shortage of schools that provided training for teachers, Glassboro residents raised over US$7,000 to purchase 25 acres of land, which was offered to the state free of charge if the town was selected as the site of the planned twoyear teachers training school. That was quite a chunk of change then. Six years later, 236 young women arrived to christen the opening of Glassboro Normal School.
