'''Rhode Island College''' ('''RIC''') is a [[public college]] in [[Rhode Island]], United States, with much of the land in [[Providence, Rhode Island|Providence]],<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www2.census.gov/geo/maps/DC2020/DC20BLK/st44_ri/place/p4459000_providence/DC20BLK_P4459000.pdf |title=2020 CENSUS - CENSUS BLOCK MAP: Providence city, RI |publisher=[[U.S. Census Bureau]]|page=1 (PDF p. 2/6) |access-date=2021-07-02 |quote=Rhode Island Colg}}</ref> and other parts in [[North Providence, Rhode Island|North Providence]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www2.census.gov/geo/maps/DC2020/DC20BLK/st44_ri/cousub/cs4400751760_north_providence/DC20BLK_CS4400751760.pdf |title=2020 CENSUS - CENSUS BLOCK MAP: North Providence town, RI |publisher=[[U.S. Census Bureau]] |access-date=2021-07-02|quote=Rhode Island Colg}}</ref> The college was established in 1854 as the Rhode Island State Normal School, making it the second-oldest institution of higher education in Rhode Island after [[Brown University]]. Located on a {{Convert|180|acre|adj=on}} campus, the college has a student body of 9,000: 7,518 undergraduates and 1,482 graduate students. RIC is a member of the NCAA and has 17 [[NCAA Division III|Division III]] teams.

== History ==
Rhode Island College was first established as the "Rhode Island State Normal School" by the [[Rhode Island General Assembly]] in 1854.<ref name="autogenerated1">{{cite web|url=http://www.ric.edu/aboutRIC/history.php|title=About RIC - College History|website=ric.edu|access-date=20 May 2017|archive-date=25 May 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170525103725/http://www.ric.edu/aboutric/history.php|url-status=dead}}</ref> Its creation can be attributed to the labors of [[Henry Barnard]], the first state agent for education in Rhode Island who had established the Rhode Island Teachers Institute at [[Smithville Seminary]] in 1845, and his successor, [[Elisha Potter]]. The Rhode Island State Normal School was one of the nation's first [[normal school]]s (teacher preparatory schools), which grew out of the humanitarian groundswell of the mid-19th century spurred by educational missionaries like [[Horace Mann]]. The school attracted hard working young people who came chiefly from ordinary backgrounds.

[[File:Rhode Island State Normal School from Views of Providence (1900).jpg|thumb|left|Rhode Island Normal School, 1900]]
Not yet thoroughly convinced of the school's value, the General Assembly curtailed its financial support in 1857 and the school was moved to [[Bristol, Rhode Island|Bristol]] where it lingered until 1865 before closing. However, in 1869, the newly appointed state commissioner of education, [[Thomas W. Bicknell]], began a vigorous personal campaign to revive the school.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nea.org/aboutnea/twbicknell.html|title=NEA: Luminaries, NEA History, Leaders<!-- Bot generated title -->|access-date=20 May 2017|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080706150810/http://www.nea.org/aboutnea/twbicknell.html|archive-date=6 July 2008}}</ref> His efforts were rewarded in 1871 when the General Assembly unanimously voted a $10,000 appropriation for the school's re-opening in Providence.

Renamed the "Rhode Island Normal School", the institution settled into a period of steady growth punctuated by periodic moves to larger quarters.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://riroads.com/history/rhode_island_colleges.htm|title=Rhode Island Colleges<!-- Bot generated title -->|access-date=20 May 2017|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://archive.today/20050125005449/http://riroads.com/history/rhode_island_colleges.htm|archive-date=25 January 2005}}</ref> The general favor won by the school, after its first difficult years had passed, was confirmed in 1898 when it moved into a large building specially constructed for it on Providence's Capitol Hill near the [[Rhode Island State House|State House]].

In 1920, the Rhode Island Normal School was renamed "Rhode Island College of Education" by order of the General Assembly. The college now offered a four-year program which upon a student's completion would grant a [[Bachelor of Education]] degree. At this time the observation school, which dated back to the 1890s, was renamed the Henry Barnard School. The college's graduate program also originated in the early 1920s and the first master's degrees were conferred in 1924.

For the next three decades the college remained a [[teachers' college]] with a student body of four to six hundred men and women. Early in the 1950s that calm was shattered by intense debate that arose over the college's role in the state system of [[higher education]] and for a time serious doubt was cast on its continued existence. There were plans to merge the institution with Rhode Island's other four-year college, the [[University of Rhode Island]]. After careful consideration, the Board of Trustees of State Colleges decided to keep the college independent and strengthen it overall.

In 1958, the college was moved to its current campus in the [[Mount Pleasant, Providence, Rhode Island|Mount Pleasant]] section of Providence. In 1959, the Rhode Island Commission to Study Higher Education recommended the development of the institution into a general college which was approved by the General Assembly. Reflecting the broadening of purpose, the institution's name was changed to its current name "Rhode Island College" in 1959.<ref name="autogenerated1"/>

The East Campus includes the former grounds of the Rhode Island [[State Home and School for Dependent and Neglected Children]], the first post-Civil War orphanage in the country. In recent years, many efforts have been undertaken by Rhode Island College and its benefactors to preserve the [[State Home and School for Dependent and Neglected Children#Yellow cottage|Yellow Cottage]] (or Cottage C), one of the original structures from the State Home.

===Principals and presidents===
The president is the chief executive officer; prior to 1920, the chief academic officer of the college was known as the ''principal''. Jack R. Warner is the eleventh president, and 19th chief officer of Rhode Island College, starting his position in 2022. On January 6, 2022, previous president Frank Sánchez announced that he would not seek a third term as president of the college; his term ended on June 30, 2022 and was replaced by Jack R. Warner.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/01/06/metro/rhode-island-college-search-new-president-frank-sanchez-wont-seek-another-term/|title= Rhode Island College to search for new president as Frank Sanchez won't seek another term|date=January 6, 2022|work=Boston Globe|access-date=January 6, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.providencejournal.com/story/news/education/2022/01/06/frank-d-sanchez-not-returning-ric-president-after-june-30-2022/9119695002/|title= Rhode Island College President Frank Sanchez plans to depart|date=January 6, 2022|work=The Providence Journal|access-date=January 6, 2022}}</ref>
