Rutgers Club of Chicago

There are some things that instantly create a connection.

You meet someone in Chicago and discover you grew up in the same town.

You realize you both know the same person.

Or you spot a Rutgers hat.

Because when you’re a Scarlet Knight living in Chicago, seeing that Block R out in the wild is enough to make you think:

“Hey…are you a Rutgers person?”

That’s the idea behind Knight to Meet You.

If you spot someone wearing Rutgers gear around Chicago:

SPOT A KNIGHT → SAY HELLO → SNAP A PIC → SHARE IT

Post your photo on Facebook or Instagram with , or email it to [email protected].

Every qualifying entrant will receive Rutgers swag, while supplies last. Plus, two winners will be randomly selected to receive Amazon gift cards.

Entries must be submitted by October 15, 2026.

So wear your Rutgers gear. Keep your eyes open. And when you see a fellow Scarlet Knight, go introduce yourself.

You never know where your next Rutgers connection will come from.

See someone walking around Chicago in an Illinois hoodie? Not exactly unusual.

An MSU hat? You’ll see plenty of those, too.

But Rutgers gear?

That’s different.

When you spot a Scarlet R across the street, on the train, at a bar or walking down the block, you know you’ve found one of your people. And suddenly, two strangers have something in common.

That’s the idea behind Knight to Meet You, a new Rutgers Club of Chicago campaign celebrating those unexpected Scarlet Knight connections.

SPOT A KNIGHT → SAY HELLO → SNAP A PIC → SHARE IT

Post your photo on Facebook or Instagram with , or email it to [email protected].

Every qualifying entrant will receive Rutgers swag, while supplies last. Plus, two winners will be randomly selected to receive Amazon gift cards.

Entries must be submitted by October 15, 2026.

So the next time you see Rutgers gear around Chicago, don’t just walk by. Go say hello.

You never know when you’ll meet a fellow Scarlet Knight.
