Naming Opportunities
Rhode Island College (RIC) is eager to engage in partnerships with alumni, reunion classes, friends, and the business community. Such fruitful collaborations are crucial as we plan for the vibrant future of our college. Naming opportunities fulfill RIC's mission as well as a donor's charitable intent. From putting your stamp on a cozy student lounge, to endowing a state-of-the art computer lab or a beautiful, light-filled art studio, many choices are available for donors interested in naming opportunities. Our chart below lists some of these exciting possibilities. Please call the Office of College Advancement at 401-456-8105 or 401-456-9866 for more specific information.
