  • Description:
    Among Sea Grant Programs, New Jersey's has, from the very beginning, occupied a distinctive place both because of the special problems of the state's highly industrialized northeast coast and Hudson River estuary, and the lack of a major academic focus for marine research. The New jersey Sea Grant Program began at a time when the small "teacher's colleges" of the nation were expanding with great (and perhaps undue) speed into universities. In New Jersey, many colleges underwent metamorphosis which did not quickly produce substantial and significant graduate research programs. The Marine Sciences Consortium was created as a means of focusing and combining the existing marine research and education competence of the state, and helping it expand and grow. The Sea Grant Program was the vital means of growth. This year ten program represents maturity in several ways. First, there is the increased competence and sophistication of the proposals. Second, there is the increased number of academic participants; 9 institutions are represented. Fifteen projects comprise the program for 1985-86; ten are renewals and five are new projects. Most of them are partnership projects with industry, other Sea Grant Programs, and/or the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. Third, in fields where circumstances allow, projects are combined into programs with strong leadership and full coordination and communication.​The Advisory Service and Education portions of the New Jersey Sea Grant Program still are not adequate to the needs of the state, but this reflects lack of funds and not a dearth of interest or competence; we propose improvements. This program also reflects, with our thanks, the counsel and support of the National Sea Grant Office, not only in the improved quality of the projects, but in the more mundane elements of style and clarity. We hope you'll agree that New Jersey Sea Grant has come a long way.
