At Roger Williams University, we believe the college experience should encompass a lot more than classroom study and on-campus activities. In fact, engaging in the local community can play a major role in helping students to create post-graduation paths. With a daylong service program part of the freshman-year Weeks of Welcome program, service to the community plays a part in students’ lives from the day they arrive on campus. And for each of them, myriad service opportunities throughout the year mean endless chances to connect and serve the communities in which they live.
