Join us for a screening of Vieques: Archivo Vivo, a powerful documentary (2024, 89 min, Spanish with English subtitles) by filmmaker Juan Carlos Rodríguez. This deeply moving film unearths the fifty-year legacy of U.S. naval militarization on the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico—marked by environmental degradation, public health crises, and the heroic resilience of local social movements that ultimately forced the Navy’s withdrawal.

Game Design Students, join us to learn more about the opportunity of a lifetime! Wildlife Studios, the largest game design studio in South America is looking for teams of creative designers who want to come and develop their own game idea in their Headquarters in Brazil.

Discover the remarkable story of Dr. Robert F. Panara—poet, educator, activist, and co-founder of NTID—through two powerful mini-exhibits highlighting his enduring contributions to Deaf culture, education, theatre, and literature. NTID students and faculty contributed to the selection of materials for the mini-exhibits. They worked with RIT University Archivist, Elizabeth Call, and NTID & Deaf Studies Archives Liaison Librarian, Dr. Joan Naturale, to bring the mini-exhibits to life. Learn more about Panara on this RIT Libraries InfoGuide.
