New Jersey Athletic Conference The New Jersey Athletic Conference was founded in 1985 when the New Jersey State Athletic Conference, a men’s sports conference, merged with their corresponding institutions in the Jersey Athletic Conference, a women’s sports conference. The 10 founding member institutions were Kean, Montclair State, Jersey City State College (now New Jersey City University), Glassboro State College (now Rowan University), Ramapo, Rutgers-Camden, Rutgers -Newark, Stockton State College (now The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey), Trenton State College (now The College of New Jersey), and William Paterson. In 1999, the New Jersey Athletic Conference added three new chapters to its history. In May, it hired its first commissioner. In September, the conference amended its constitution to allow affiliate members on a sport-by-sport basis and accepted the State University of New York at Cortland as its first affiliate member for the sport of football. And in October, it revised its constitution and bylaws to merge the men’s and women’s sports divisions into a single decision-making body.
