Ms. Amanda L. Alfano
- Assistant Director of Student Activities
Right off the quad, the Student Union is the heartbeat of student life on campus, a place of chance encounters, late night study sessions over pizza, and an unwavering RIC spirit that echoes in its halls.
Monday–Friday: 8:30 am–4:30 pm
(Summer hours: Monday–Friday: 8 am–4 pm)
Dedicated to student voice and governance, the Student Union houses our Student Community Government, all the student organization offices including our Student Programming Board, Greek Life, and the student-run marketing department (SA).
The Student Union is also home to Student Activities, the Military Resource Center, and Student Union Programming. You can get a quick bite at the Beestro on the lower level while you check your mailbox, and then head upstairs for the Student ID office and our bookstore. There’s a sky bridge that connects the Student Union with our Dining Hall, where you can also find the Unity Center. Right behind the Student Union is the Ducey Media Center that houses the student newspaper, The Anchor, our radio station WXIN, and Anchor TV.
All About Student Organizations

Founded in 1972 with the original goal of being the voice for all students, the Student Community Government (SCG) continues today, with even more responsibility. Now, SCG recognizes and funds current and new student organizations on campus, which then provide engaging events and opportunities for our student body.
Student Activities sponsors a number of events throughout the semester.
Join up with colleagues from Team RWB, the Military Resource Center, the RI VFW, and the RI College Student Veterans of America for day of fellowship outdoors!
Starting the week after Spring Break, RIC will be hosting a variety of events for students. Come and form connections, have fun, and learn something new!
