NEWARK — When the Census released its first batch of New Jersey data earlier this year, the state's demographic trends were consistent with the rest of the United States: A rising Hispanic population, a general migration to the state's southern region and an exodus from traditional urban centers.

Now, the question is how the state's political, business and social leaders will apply the information as the 21st century progresses, a panel of experts said today at the Newark Museum.

The symposium, "The Newest New Jerseyans," sponsored by the museum, The Star-Ledger, Rutgers University's Center for Migration and the Global City and the Program on Immigration and Democracy at the Eagleton Institute of Politics, paid particular attention to the state's growing Hispanic population.
