Spring Break
04/17/07 - Rhode Island State Police have announced that alcohol may have been a factor in the March 30 automobile crash that killed two University of Rhode Island students. URI sophomores Marissa Salabert, 19, and Tiffany DeSisto, 20, were driving southbound on Route 95 past the Route 295 intersection in Warwick, where police say Salabert lost control of her car and veered off the highway onto the median.
04/17/07 - Hillel and about 25 members of the University of Rhode Island community remembered the Holocaust with poetry, songs, readings and comments from Alice Goldstein, who experienced the anti-Semitism of Nazi Germany firsthand. Goldstein, a professor emeritus of sociology at Brown University, shared her memories of becoming ostracized from the small village community where her family had lived for two centuries.
04/17/07 - About 100 people gathered last night in the University of Rhode Island Memorial Union Ballroom for the 10th Anniversary Black Scholar Awards. The URI black scholar awards program, which was founded in 1998, recognizes accomplishments and scholarship of black students.
04/17/07 - An unmistakable smile of elation crossed a young girl's face as she listened to the blaring ska music in the Memorial Union Ballroom Friday night. The music was loud, but that did not stop the girl from dancing along to the Castronauts, just one of nine acts at this year's Multicultural Show presented by the URI Asian Students Association.
