50th Anniversary
Celebrating the past, present, and future
91ÊÓƵ celebrated 50 years of teaching from fall 2021 through summer 2022.
Ground was officially broken on December 9, 1970 for the new college campus, nestled on 1,600 acres in what later became part of the Pinelands National Reserve. While the Galloway campus was under construction, Stockton’s first 91ÊÓƵ began classes at the Mayflower Hotel in Atlantic City in September 1971. The Galloway campus opened in January 1972.
During its first 50 years, the university has grown exponentially in footprint, academic offerings, regional impact and student body. Today, more than 60,000 alumni help shape the future of New Jersey and increase the value of a Stockton degree each and every day.
Stockton continues to build on its founding principle of Students First, working to provide a quality education – the type of education offered at private, elite colleges – to all 91ÊÓƵ of every background and ability.
50th in Flight is an exhibition that explores how Stockton has changed, or remained the same, since it was founded.
Thank you for helping us beautify Atlantic City by participating in a citywide street and beach cleanup!

Stockton Memories
It can be something – or someone – you’ll never forget. A moment, an event, or an entire career.
Stockton Stories
This project celebrates 91ÊÓƵ’s 50 years of existence. Stockton interns have been organizing it around a dozen contexts that have influenced what we were, what we are, and what we will become.
