Upholding High Ethical Standards Together

March 3, 2025

We are proud to be part of the University of Rhode Island community, united by a shared vision of excellence and integrity. Our journey is made meaningful by our dedication to creating an inclusive environment where all are supported, valued, and empowered.

As integral members of this community, it is crucial that we continuously reflect on both a personal and institutional level. We are committed to holding ourselves and each other accountable, upholding high standards, and striving for excellence in every endeavor. As we navigate our path, it is our collective responsibility to act ethically and avoid behaviors that could damage our reputation, compromise our values, or hinder our success.

This March, we invite all faculty and staff to actively engage in raising Ethics Awareness. Take this opportunity to reflect on our shared values and consider the vital role you play in maintaining an environment that upholds high ethical standards. Keep an eye out for upcoming communications and be sure to visit the URI Ethics Awareness Website for access to valuable training and resources available to our community.

We are grateful to every member of the URI community for your steadfast dedication to an ethical and outstanding University of Rhode Island. Together, we uphold our core values and exemplify integrity and excellence.
