Its mission is to acquire, organize, preserve, and make available to qualified scholars and research-oriented patrons those materials which are adjudged suitable for permanent preservation under controlled conditions. Unique research materials will consist of rare books; special book collections, e.g. R. I. Collection; University Archives; personal papers and maps. These materials will supplement the general collection in the University Libraries and further the goals of the Library to support the University's educational, scholarly and research programs.

    RHODE ISLAND RIVERS COUNCIL HISTORICAL OUTLINE 1989-1990: Lieutenant Governor's Task Force on Rivers, Final Report & Recommendations, 58 pages, February, 1990. 1991-2000: Governor Bruce Sundlun inaugurated January 1, 1991. General Assembly created RI Rivers Council (RC) – RI General Law 46-28. Kenneth Payne became RC chair. Statewide Planning Program provides staff support to RC. RC concluded in 1992 that "more effective integration of existing programs and authority for rivers is needed." RC formulated draft classifications for rivers in 1993. RC held four workshops in northern, central, southern and eastern RI in 1994 to refine draft river classifications. Governor Lincoln Almond inaugurated January 1, 1995. Michael Cassidy, Planner for the City of Pawtucket, became RC chair. RC, working with the Divison of Planning, created digital maps of the state's watersheds. The State Planning Council adopted the RI Rivers Policy and Classification Plan, in January 1998, as State Guide Plan Element 162. RC established policies for recognizing local watershed councils in 1998. The Blackstone, Saugatucket and Wood-Pawcatuck were first river systems to have watershed councils designated by RC. Note: Designated watershed councils have certain legal authority and standing to represent their water bodies in state and local jurisdictions as well as be eligible for state grants via RC. 2001-2007: Meg Kerr became RC chair. General Assembly commences in 2001 providing annual legislative grants to RC from $22,000 to $52,000 range. Annual grant rounds commence from RC to designated local watershed councils generally in $2,500 to $7,500 range from Fiscal Year 2002 to the present.

It seems hard to believe that it was just a few years ago that I welcomed you to Roger Williams University at freshman Convocation. And while much of the tradition and ceremony seems the same - the marching, caps and gowns, speeches, cheering and tears - much more has changed. The University has grown tremendously in your time here, both physically and in reputation. We have earned our place regionally, nationally and internationally as a respected name in a variety of academic disciplines. We have been engaged in the world through the articulation of our core values - love of learning, preparation for future careers and study, student­ faculty research, service, a global perspective and civil discourse. In many ways our transformation can be attributed to students like you, who have carried those values with you in your journeys.

  • DETERIORATING NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE ROADS WOULD GET BOOST UNDER SENATE BILL -- March 12, 1998
    For release: March 12, 1998 Janet Tennyson 202-2 19-386 1 Peter Umhofer 202-208-60 11 DETERIORATING NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE ROADS WOULD GET BOOST UNDER SENATE BILL Thousands of miles of crumbling roadways in the National Wildlife Refuge System would receive a boost under a transportation bill passedtoday by the U.S. Senate. The new funding would help remedy the $158 million road maintenance backlog faced by world’s largest network of lands dedicated to wildlife. Under the Federal Land Highways Program of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), the reauthorization bill, S. 1173, provides for $20 million in new funding for wildlife refuge roads each year for the next 5 years. “The Senate’s action recognizes the important role the National Wildlife Refuge System plays in safeguarding America’s magnificent wildlife resources,” said Jamie Rappaport Clark, Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the agency responsible for managing the 92-million-acre National Wildlife Refuge System. “I applaud the Senate’s efforts to addressthe maintenance needs of the National Wildlife Refuge System,” said Director Clark. “I also want to recognize the tremendous leadership of SenatorsJohn Chafee and Max Baucus in making sure the legislation addressedthese needs. Receiving this funding under the Federal Lands Highways Program would help us ensure safe and accessible roads for the 30 million Americans who visit national wildlife refuges each year. It would also allow the Fish and Wildlife Service to target limited resources toward vital wildlife conservation programs on refuges.” (over) AMERICA’S NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGES... wherewddkfe comes wzt~~dly! -2- More than 4,200 miles of public roads and 424 bridges are contained in the 5 14 wildlife refuges and 38 wetland management districts making up the National Wildlife Refuge System.

  • Examining the Role of Political Language in Rhode Island's Health Care Debate
    1 THE RHETORIC OF REFORM: EXAMINING THE ROLE OF POLITICAL LANGUAGE IN RHODE ISLAND’S HEALTH CARE DEBATE A dissertation presented by Kevin P. Donnelly to The Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of Public and International Affairs Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August 2009 2 THE RHETORIC OF REFORM: EXAMINING THE ROLE OF POLITICAL LANGUAGE IN RHODE ISLAND’S HEALTH CARE DEBATE by Kevin P. Donnelly ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public and International Affairs in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Northeastern University, August 2009 3 ABSTRACT Political language refers to the way in which public policy issues are portrayed, discussed, and ultimately perceived by the community at large. Focusing specifically on two case studies in Rhode Island—the efforts of two policy entrepreneurs to enact comprehensive health care reform, and Governor Donald Carcieri’s successful pursuit of a Medicaid “Global Waiver”—this thesis begins with a description of the social, political, and economic contexts in which these debates took root. Using a “framework of analysis” developed for this thesis, attention then centers on the language employed by the political actors involved in advancing health care reform, along with the response of lawmakers, organized interests, and the public. A major finding is that the use of rhetoric has been crucial to the framing of policy alternatives, constituency building, and political strategy within Rhode Island’s consideration of health care reform.
