Mission

The Unity Center is Rhode Island College's multicultural center. It promotes opportunities for exploring human dignity, social identity, and cultural equity. The Center fosters collaborative programming among its student affiliations, faculty and the local community. It is committed to challenging stereotypes, racism and apathy and gender discrimination. The Center's concern is to maintain global awareness by responding to current events while preparing others to be productive citizens of the world. The Center is also a place where students can engage their peers and faculty about what is being taught in the classroom and is a space for dialogue and discussion. We strive to preserve, bolster, and enrich students' cultural, social and ethnic identity.
