History of Rider Exhibit at Trenton City Museum

Rider – The First 99 Years, one of the largest exhibits in Rider University’s history, opened on September 17 at the Trenton City Museum at Ellarslie Mansion in Cadwalader Park. The exhibit, created by Robert Congleton, chair of Franklin F. Moore Library, and Julia Telonidis, archives specialist, celebrates the institution’s early beginnings in Trenton.

“This all started on the corner of Front Street in downtown Trenton. A young man, 23 years of age, planted a seed, which began 144 years of Rider – 99 of which were in the city of Trenton,” said Dr. Walter Brower, professor emeritus, at the opening reception.

“Rider: The First 99 Years” will be exhibited at Ellarslie from September 17 – November 15, 2009.

A Lecture by Dr. Walter Brower and Archivist Robert Congleton will be given at the museum on October 25, 2009 at 2 p.m.
