Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is back in New Jersey Thursday for a rare public appearance since she lost in her bid for the White House against President Donald Trump.
Clinton is expected to talk politics, American democracy and her role in shaping women's political history.
Rutgers will pay Clinton $25,000 from an endowment but use no money from tuition or state aid, according to the university.
A Clinton spokesperson told NBC the former secretary of state plans to donate the honorarium for the speech to charity.
Rutgers Eagleton Institute of Politics will host the event to be held at Rutgers Athletic Center in Piscataway.
It's sold out. Anyone interested in tickets can join the waitlist, or watch it on Rutgers University's livestream.
Clinton made at least three public appearances in the Garden State since the presidential election: She campaigned for then-gubernatorial candidate Phil Murphy for governor in October, and then returned for another pro-Murphy event that same month with her husband, former President Bill Clinton.
Hillary Clinton was in New Jersey the month before for a book signing in Montclair.
New Jersey isn't a swing state, so the former secretary of state wasn't here much before the election either. But she had some visits.
Clinton railed against what she called Trump's "reckless" and "dangerous" agenda on the campaign trail in Blackwood in May 2016 and was welcomed back to the state a short time later by rocker Jon Bon Jovi.
