Description: The URI Student Entertainment Committee (SEC) is a student organization that plans a variety of entertainment events for the campus and local community. SEC has a hand in every stage of the event planning process while organizing shows together. Our duties include choosing/booking performers, selling tickets, marketing and advertising, working backstage as a stage crew or security team, and much, MUCH more.

URI SEC works on concerts, comedy shows, lectures/presentations by famous athletes, actors, actresses, politicians, or reality stars, "daytime distractions" including massage therapists, tie dying, sundae making, lobster bakes, free movie showings, etc. (if it's fun, we probably do it.)

SEC consists of 4 sub-committees: Concerts, Special Events, VIP/Speakers, and Advertising. Each sub-committee manages different types of shows and/or activities that SEC is responsible for, while the Advertising subcommittee works to promote events.

If you have leadership skills, enjoy music, movies, and entertainment, are creative or artistic, or possess any other skills that could help an organization run smoothly, then join SEC!
