Living in the Women's Center
The Women's Center is designed to empower and inspire undergraduate women in campus leadership roles. Residents are encouraged to explore their personal leadership styles and the ways in which they are affected or enhanced by gender and to come together to share, grow, and network. The Women's Center is open to female identified individuals from all academic disciplines. Our goal is to provide students with a small, close-knit community and it is a wonderful way for students to be involved in life and learning at URI.
