Student Alumni Association
The URI Student Alumni Association (SAA) was founded in 1985. SAA members act as ambassadors for the Alumni Association on campus. The Student Alumni Assocation Office is located in the URI Alumni Center (first floor) at 73 Upper College Road on the Kingston Campus.
The mission of the Student Alumni Association is to generate school spirit among students, provide students with information about the Alumni Association, and keep the Alumni Association informed about developments on campus. SAA activities include:
Providing volunteers for alumni events, such as Homecoming and Big Chill Weekend
Selecting and training students who represent URI as Rhody the Ram at sports and civic events
Providing Student Survival Kits--care packages to be delivered to students during exam time.
Bolstering school spirit by organizing events such as Midnight Madness and Oozeball
Representing URI in the community through a variety of volunteer efforts.
Survival Kits are fun-filled packages that you can purchase for your URI Student(s) to be given out when students need them most, the week before finals! The kits are bursting with what every college student needs during exams- stress relievers, food items, assorted treats, and a personal message from you that will bring a smile to your student's face! Purchase a Survival Kit today!
HOW TO JOIN THE STUDENT ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
SAA membership is limited to 50 students each year. Students interested in becoming SAA members are asked to complete an application by the deadline date at the beginning of each academic year. Those selected as finalists will have a personal interview.
