A few nominations have come in.

We haven't gotten any nominations as of yet, but we are very excited for this year's Excellence Awards. We want to recognize people who have gone above and beyond.

The Excellence Awards have been going on since the 1970s with teaching awards. We try to get people interested, and to nominate people who really deserve to be recognized.

Students can nominate anyone on the [URI] staff. We've had students nominate the janitor in their building because they have gone above and beyond expectations.

Inventing is something that has always come very natural to me. As a child, I was always fiddling with things, making contraptions. I'd see something, go home, and try to make something even better.

Have you looked around lately? There are more muffin-top, camel-toe, wedgie-assed women on the street than hotdog stands! These women need to take a hard look in the mirror, and be honest with themselves. No one knows what size is labeled on the inside of your clothes. Please, for the love of God, buy the bigger size, because we're all a bit tired of looking at the outline of your labia!
