Around Town

Sitting out on our beautiful quad in the nicer months is one of my favorite things to do. You can go sledding down our steep hills when it snows, too! There's always something fun going on here.

I joined a club sports team, which takes up a lot of my time, but it was a great way to meet new people and continue playing sports I've played my whole life.

Join clubs, community services activities, and take fun fine arts classes while you can. Also, if you are interested in greek life join a sorority or frat. It is what you make it.

hang out at the Union, play pool, go swimming or workout.

Theres a ton of activities to do on campus and within the dorm buildings. There is never a dull moment here at URI.

URI seems to always have an activity that they are providing for students to attend. The bus system that goes through URI is very feasible and grants students access to anywhere in Rhode Island. There are parties almost every weekend, and plenty of places for students to go on campus to just relax or hang out.

Sports and relaxing on the quad. Many different parties on many days of the week if you are into that Uri is a great place to be. Great new basketball courts and track with good gym. Friendly people to hang out with if you keep your eyes open.

pool tables, basketball court/track, swimming pool, plenty of restaurants in the Emporium

Joining clubs can be really fun because it provides a great opportunity to meet people. Usually, other than Greek life, a lot of the fun things happen off campus because URI is so rural. Trips to newport for shopping and bars, and providence for restaurants and clubs is always a plus. Most of the partying is done in Narragansett at the bars and neighborhood called eastward.

URI has intramural sports, many clubs, greek life, anything for every type of person. URI is also a 40 minute bus trip to Providence for dining and clubbing, about 25 minutes from Newport and about 10 minutes from Narragansett beach.
