Field Trip: Roger Williams University; May 8th, 2015

Fernando Perez, Raymond Perez, Olimpia Aldana Perez, Manny Rivas, Gisabel Salcedo, Hafzat Akani, Jessica Dough, Richard Quinnila Gonzales, Zach Reyes and Joan Tueros traveled to Bristol, Rhode Island for a day of inquiry and discovery at Roger Williams University.   The

trip proved ‘questions are more important than answers’ and ‘getting out of one’s comfort zone creates opportunities for valuable lessons learned’.

Students also had an opportunity to see first hand the benefits of networking as our University tour guide, Juan, seemed to know everyone on campus!  At Roger Williams University,

everyone knew Juan!
