Football Game
Come out and cheer for Rhody as our 2024 CAA Football champions take on Long Island University in the Homecoming game! Enjoy an evening game under the lights at 6 p.m. on Saturday, September 20, 2025. Get your tickets early as the game is anticipated to sell out. Single-game tickets are on sale now.
Be a Class Ambassador
Class years ending in 0 or 5 will receive special recognition at this year’s Homecoming celebration on September 19-21, 2025. We’re looking for alumni ambassadors from each milestone anniversary class to help spread the word to classmates and encourage them to attend.
Class ambassadors can help by sharing Homecoming information within their networks of URI classmates and friends. Volunteer opportunities during Homecoming weekend will also be available. Being an ambassador is a fun way to get involved and reconnect with Rhody friends!
