HONORARY DEGREE RECIPIENT | COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER

Vanessa Volz | Doctor of Humane Letters

Vanessa Volz has been the executive director of Sojourner House since 2011. During her tenure, the agency has updated its mission statement, more than quadrupled its operating budget, expanded its services statewide and developed new community-based initiatives and housing programs, including a program for victims of human trafficking, a permanent supportive housing program, a legal immigration advocacy program and a housing development program.

A licensed attorney, Volz previously practiced disability rights law and she has published articles in UC Berkeley’s “Cases on Reproductive Rights and Justice” and Rutgers University’s “Women’s Rights Law Reporter.” She was honored with a RISE Award for Innovative Nonprofit of the Year (2022), the Women’s Fund of Rhode Island Advocacy Award (2020), the YWCA of Rhode Island Women of Achievement Award (2017) and the Rhode Island Foundation Innovation Award (2016).

Volz teaches at Rhode Island College in the Gender and Women’s Studies Department, where she developed a number of new courses, including Gender Based Violence and Reproductive Rights and Justice. She is a graduate of the University of Georgia School of Law, Bard College, Leadership Rhode Island and the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses Program, as well as two 200-hour yoga teacher trainings. Originally from the Midwest, Volz made stops in New York, the West Coast and the Southeast before establishing Rhode Island as her adopted home.

THE RHODE ISLAND COLLEGE SEAL

The official Rhode Island College seal (adopted in 1960) incorporates the anchor, a symbol of hope and of the state of Rhode Island, with the founding of the institution in 1854. The seal was designed by Edith C. Becker, professor emerita of art, who adapted the central flame symbol from the Holbrook Murals in the foyer of Roberts Hall. The flame is used in the murals to depict the energy that has, over the ages, supported the development of all living things and has led civilization to its highest intellectual achievements. In like manner, the flame in the Rhode Island College seal stands for the life of the body and the life of the mind, symbolizing the human and intellectual goals and achievements of Rhode Island College.

THE DEL SESTO MACE

At the 1959 commencement exercises, the first held on the present Mount Pleasant campus, Governor Christopher Del Sesto presented to Rhode Island College a bronze replica of the statue of the Independent Man so that the college, which since 1898 had been located near the State House, might continue its tradition of holding commencements and other academic convocations in the presence of the Independent Man. The Del Sesto Mace, designed by the noted Rhode Island sculptor Aristide Cianfarani and crafted by the Gorham Company, has been in use since 1962 in all academic processions as a symbol of tradition and authority, as well as commitment to the search for truth, knowledge, beauty, values, and learning.

THE PRESIDENTIAL MEDALLION

The Presidential Medallion is a symbol of the office of the president. The medallion is appended to a chain that bears the names of the college and the chief executive officers who have led the institution. The medallion bears the names of all the principals and presidents to date; as well as the official names of the institution over time; the Rhode Island Normal School (1854-1920), Rhode Island College of Education (1920-1960) and Rhode Island College (1960-present).

ALMA MATER

Dear Alma Mater wise and kind, To thy fair name shall e'er belong our grateful praises and our love, The tribute of our song. Thou guardian of the sacred shrine of truth that makes us free. We cherish thy beloved fame and pledge our loyalty. Rhode Island College hail to thee!

All hail to Alma Mater!

Enshrined thou art within the heart of ev'ry son and daughter.

RHODE ISLAND COLLEGE COLORS

Rhode Island College's colors are gold and white, taken from the Rhode Island state flag. In 1986, burgundy was added as an accent color.

HISTORY OF RHODE ISLAND COLLEGE

Rhode Island College is the state’s first public institution of higher education. Established in 1854 by the Rhode Island General Assembly as the Rhode Island State Normal School, the school was founded to address the increasing demand for formally educated teachers in the state. First classes were held at the Second Universalist Church in Providence before moving in 1857 to free accommodations at the former Congregational meetinghouse in Bristol. Normal School operations were suspended in 1865, but the school reopened in 1871 in a building near Hoyle Square in Providence. In 1879 larger quarters were secured in a former Providence High School building, and in 1893 the first Observation and Training School was opened in a former grammar school a number of blocks away from the Normal School. In 1898 a new and much grander home was completed on Providence’s Capitol Hill. The first floor was occupied by the Observation and Training School, named in honor of Henry Barnard in 1920. That same year the Normal School was rechartered as the Rhode Island College of Education (R.I.C.E.), gaining the authority to grant baccalaureate degrees and earning distinction as the first New England normal school to become a college of education. In 1925 the college offered its first graduate degree program – the Master of Education. Increased growth led to the opening of a separate building on the same campus to house the Henry Barnard School in 1928.

By the early 1950s the college was again in need of larger quarters. In the fall of 1958, a new 48-acre campus opened in the Mt. Pleasant section of Providence, with six buildings, 800 students and 65 faculty members. In 1959 the Rhode Island General Assembly assigned the institution a new mission; in addition to its teacher education programs, the college was to offer a comprehensive curriculum in the arts and sciences and to add a program in the industrial arts. To reflect its new mission, in 1960 the institution’s name was changed to Rhode Island College.

Over the past 60 years, the campus has grown to 180 acres and enrollment has expanded to over 5,700 students. The campus consists of 43 buildings, including six residence halls that can now accommodate 1,200 students. Academic offerings are provided in five schools: the Feinstein School of Education and Human Development, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, the School of Business, the Onanian School of Nursing, and the School of Social Work.
