That proposal was hailed as a move that would boost employee salaries and encourage a more robust tax base. “As a public institution, Rhode Island College is concerned about sup- porting industry and business for the benefit of our graduates, who should be employment ready with the skills and knowledge to thrive in the workplace,” says Rhode Island College President Jack Warner.
