Rhode Island Department of Corrections ceremonies celebrate academic achievement, workforce readiness, and the transformative impact of higher education.
Blending the design and marketing skills of junior Juliet Garcia-Baez with the decades of ceramics expertise of Adjunct Professor of Visual Arts Denis Leonti, this Â鶹ɫÇéƬ faculty-student partnership has turned a 78-follower social media account into a global ceramics classroom of more than 16,000 new students.
After decades of leading community banks and nonprofit organizations across Massachusetts, the 2011 Â鶹ɫÇéƬ graduate is being recognized for a lifelong commitment to leadership, perseverance, and expanding opportunities for adult learners at Â鶹ɫÇéƬ.
Dick Sullivan ’79, former Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of PGA TOUR Superstore, encouraged Â鶹ɫÇéƬ’s 1,127 graduates to embrace mentorship, keep learning, and use their education to open doors for others.
From shaping academic programs to inspiring generations of students, six retiring professors look back on decades of impact at Â鶹ɫÇéƬ and the relationships that defined their careers.
Hosted by the Division of Student Life, the annual ceremony honored students for their academic accomplishments, campus involvement, service, and contributions to the Â鶹ɫÇéƬ community.
