CCRI Alumni Association
Welcome to the college’s Alumni Association Web page. For those of you who are not familiar with the group, it’s not an exclusive club with a secret handshake. In fact, if you graduated from CCRI, completed a certificate program or earned a minimum 30 credits, you are automatically a member.
And membership has its advantages. Each year the association sponsors a number of activities for alumni like social gatherings and outings. Members also have the opportunity to volunteer on behalf of the college — what better way to honor your CCRI education than to help a current student in pursuit of theirs.
As you browse these pages, catch up on the latest college news and learn more about association activities. Whether it’s been 10 years or 20 years since you left one of CCRI's campuses, you are and always will be a part of this college.
