Ruby Tuesday Visits Rutgers

Before attending my business meeting at Rutgers today in this building, I photographed a detail of the red brick building across the street (above photo, Winants Hall).

Do you think Rutgers chose red as their color so I could use their new emblem (the PR department had it redesigned last year) for Ruby Tuesday?

Red is a perfect color for a college - at least it works for our kids anyway, for the University of Hartford's colors are RED and white.

I like the emblem, as I see the rays emanating from the sun. I like it!

I love that little round window at the top, next to the chimney.

I love the last image Leora with its branches and shadows. The red flag composed just right in its surroundings.

I would say YES, Rutgers definitely had you and RT in mind when they had their emblem redesigned. ;-)

I like the new red emblem. It's simple and looks pretty on the lamp post.

Well if they knew you were coming, I'm sure that's exactly why they chose the logo they did! It just goes without saying.

Spider roll would probably not be your thing. Definitely not kosher since is has shellfish in it. Tempura soft shell crab is what gives it its name (looks spidery), so if "crawly" is off your list, it's probably not for you.

Mojo, yeah, I thought so. I don't even eat kosher sushi with fish in it. Just the veggie kind.

I love that red brick building.
So many details. The brick houses only get classier as years go by.
Norwegians are too much into wood buildings, so much maintenance work, and so few of these beautiful details.

The emblem was nice, not too overwhelming, but definitely one to remember.
Fave a happy, happy Ruby Tuesday.

Sure ! they 've done it for Ruby Tuesday hunters. Come back next year, Leora, they'll paint the windows frames in red too : )
An elegant brick building and a nice red emblem to go with.
Happy Ruby Tuesday.

I really like the way the red emblem takes centre stage in the 2nd photo. And that little oval window makes me look carefully to see if someone is looking out and waving.

My RT image is posted here. Please stop by if you get a chance.

They redesigned the emblem? I'm not sure I'm okay with that...

I love red brick! I've been to the area around around Rutgers to go to the State Theater but never visited the campus.

It looks like a beautiful old campus. I've never been there but one of my daughters attends Boston University and there is a lot of red in their logos and signs, too!

Happy Ruby Tuesday!

pagan Sphinx, I went to BU (Boston University). They also have red in their colors. But Rutgers has a prettier campus.

Very nice building. One of my cats name is Rutger, so of course I had to visit here and see what kind of Rutger the post was about:)
