Tiger's Tale

Imagine RIT: Call for Alumni Volunteers

Volunteers are essential members of Imagine RIT, and hundreds of people help to ensure that the festival is a success. Most volunteer positions require a 3-hour time commitment and involve standing and interacting with visitors for the duration of the shift. Interpreters are assigned to volunteers who may need assistance communicating with visitors.

Gifts in Action: Grace Phelan BS '24

Playing women’s volleyball has been a major component of the college experience for biomedical sciences senior Grace Phelan, BS ’24. The conscientious RIT/NTID student, who aspires to be a dentist, found a second family on the court and has her sights set on competing in the Deaflympics. “I knew I wanted to come to RIT/NTID because the school combines the hearing and deaf worlds so smoothly. I wanted the chance to succeed in both,” says Grace. “I love the feeling of being academically challenged. Everyone here has unique ideas, and the collaboration across campus is very cool!”
