From nonprofit workshops to University of Richmond School of Law clinic meetings, there’s a lot of activity at the University of Richmond Downtown each week. Last year, it all summed up to 425 moments of #SpiderPride.
When you go to #URichmond, you get to take community-engaged learning classes that connect you to amazing experiences in our region and beyond. #SpiderPride
As we count down to National Spider Day, we got to thinking about everything that gives us #SpiderPride. It’s not just that we have one of the largest Bonner Scholars Programs in the country. It’s every Bonner Scholar who dedicates their time and passion to the Richmond community each week. 🕷❤️💙
Feeling #SpiderPride today and always thanks to student volunteers like Amara Nwangwu, ’20.
“I volunteer at SOAR365 because it is a community that embraces diversity in the most positive way, and I love that I can be a part of that. It is a place of happiness and opportunity that I benefit from every week."
In partnership with families, SOAR365 (formerly The Greater Richmond ARC) creates life-fulfilling opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
Great night to head to University of Richmond Downtown for the A Cappella Showcase and see the new National Woman's Party exhibition on view! If you're traveling from campus, catch the UR Downtown Shuttle at 5 p.m. Return shuttles depart at 6:25 or 7:25 p.m. Richmond on Broad Café will be open and accepts dining dollars!
#URichmond alums Shawri King, ‘96, Ryan Rinn, ‘04, and Kevin Jones, ‘94, share their civic engagement paths and advice: be your authentic self, have a conversation with someone who doesn’t look like you, listen to understand not reply, bring people together to build community.
Congratulations to Jepson School of Leadership Studies professor Julian Hayter and #URichmond alum and recent CCE Advisory Council member Ryan Rinn on their appointments to the History and Culture Commission yesterday.
“In order to move forward in creating more equitable spaces and opportunities for all Richmonders, we must ensure the stories we tell uplift and empower, not tear down or divide,” said Mayor Levar Stoney. “We must reclaim our complete history and dismantle the systemic racism and inequities that resulted. I am confident this commission will provide appropriate and rightful guidance in this important task.”
Be sure to stop by the One Book, One Richmond nomination forum today from 3:30-5 p.m. in the Wilton Center Interfaith Room. Don't miss out on your opportunity to see the full list of books nominated for One Book, One Richmond 2019-20 and give feedback to the committee for selection! This session is a drop in style open house.
Thank you to OMA (Office of Multicultural Affairs) and the Upsilon Gamma Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity for hosting such a special Black Excellence Gala on campus this past weekend, and congratulations to Bonner Scholar Alicia Jiggets, ‘19, on winning the Ogle Award which recognizes a member of the community who maintains outstanding civic engagement at the local or state level. ❤️ #SpidersEngage
