Rally House at Rowan to open Aug. 14; eCampus taking orders beginning Aug. 3

Dear Rowan University Community,

Earlier this summer, we announced our new partnerships with Rally House and eCampus.com to enhance the campus retail and course‑materials experience for our students, faculty, staff and visitors. 

The former Barnes & Noble building on Rowan Boulevard closed July 20 for renovations and will open as Rally House at Rowan University on Friday, August 14. Rally House will introduce a refreshed retail environment and a broader selection of Rowan‑branded apparel, gifts and spirit merchandise that reflects the pride and energy of our growing university community. We’ll celebrate its opening with a ribbon-cutting event in September. 

Students may begin to order course materials from eCampus.com through the Rowan University Online Bookstore starting Monday, August 3. Please be mindful that required books and course materials may change as the semester draws closer. In the meantime, eCampus.com will continue to work with our faculty to order their materials. 

Faculty who have not accessed the eCampus faculty/adoption portal are encouraged to do so by Aug. 1, even if course materials are not required. The portal will instruct you to:

1. Choose course materials
2. Indicate that no course materials are required
3. Indicate that OERs (Open Educational Resources) will be used (and thus no purchase is required).

If you have any questions about ordering course materials, please email rowan@ecampus.com. 

Thank you for your patience during this transition. 

Yours truly, 

Rory McElwee, Ph.D. 
Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Dean, University College
