Rutgers Meets Japan: A Trans-Pacific Network of the Late Nineteenth Century is an online exhibit curated by Dr. Haruko Wakabayashi and presented by the American Buddhist Study Center, in collaboration with the Digital Museum of the History of Japanese in New York. Supported by the New Jersey Historical Commission, the exhibit explores the early connections between Rutgers, Japan, and the New York Buddhist Church through the stories of Kusakabe Tarō, William Elliot Griffis, and the communities that preserved this shared history.
