SR 19 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Celebrates 100th anniversary of Chrysler Herbarium at Rutgers University.

This Senate Resolution (SR 19) commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Chrysler Herbarium at Rutgers University's New Brunswick campus. The resolution celebrates the herbarium's founding in 1925 by botany professor Dr. Mintin A. Chrysler and its role as New Jersey's largest internationally recognized collection of preserved plant, algae, and fungal specimens (nearly 200,000 total). It highlights the herbarium's value for research, education, and conservation, including its nearly fully digitized public online access. As a ceremonial resolution, it has no policy impact and simply honors the institution's contributions.
