Remembering Ibraham Abdul-Matin \u201999<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I am stunned in hearing of the passing of Ibe (\u201cA Remembrance of Friendship,\u201d<\/a> fall 2023). He was a great friend to my son and to myself. You made the world a little better, Ibe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bringing Women of Color to the Waves<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cToward a More Colorful Lineup\u201d<\/a> (fall 2023) elicited many notes and comments, including these:<\/em>

Two inspiring pioneers! A credit to our community. Keep on keepin\u2019 on.
\u2014Phil Aaronson \u201967<\/em>

Wonderful! Keep up the great work!
\u2014Michele Crowley \u201999<\/em>

Great stuff, Zane and Sullivan. Yeah, our color should not determine our life and how we live it. Rooting for you both.

Memory Lane<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This photo (Hammerschlag Mall by Andrew D\u2019Aiello \u201926, fall 2023) brings back memories of my nightly trips after dinner from Fraternity Circle to the library to study engineering. I went 3\u20134 times a week, as studying at the frat was not productive. Walking back to my room through the mall was a great feeling.

From the Editor<\/h1>\n
\"\"

Ang Cai, Ph.D. \u201917, captured this photo of comet NEOWISE on July 19, 2020. The cupola atop Green hall on º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½\u2019s Kingston Campus is in the foreground.<\/p><\/figure>\n

As we get ready to send this issue to print, it\u2019s a cold February day. But it\u2019s sunny and dry, unlike the wet and stormy weather we\u2019ve seen quite a bit of this winter. Our cover story about Rhode Island rivers and the º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ scientists who are working to help us understand and manage them seems particularly important after a season marked by significant coastal and river flooding in Rhode Island and beyond.<\/p> \n\n

But this story only scratches the surface. There are many people, lots of research, and many parts of the story we simply couldn\u2019t include here. There\u2019s more to tell and more to come.<\/p>\n\n

And that\u2019s the nature of what we do here at º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ Magazine<\/em>. The º¬Ð߲ݴ«Ã½ students, alumni, staff, and faculty featured in each issue are always an inspiring few who represent the many members of our community who are helping, thinking, creating, and making the world better\u2014in big ways and small\u2014every day.<\/p>\n\n
