Our Team in Action

Dining in the News

    Two artists paint a bold mural on a black brick wall featuring the phrase 'LET ME HEAR SOME NOISE' in large white letters with orange and white graphic elements. One artist in a navy blue shirt and cap details the design, while the other in a green shirt adds finishing touches.

    Trey Choate, left, a third-year visual media major, and Melson Miranda, a second-year visual communications design major, spent part of Spring Break painting a mural. Designed by Amber Stokes, a multimedia graphic designer with RIT’s Finance and Administration division, the mural was made for a relaunch of the former Ritz Sports Zone. Now officially “Ritz,” the space gives visitors a new vibe, focusing on energy, pride, and unique connections that make RIT a vibrant community. A week of events are planned in the space including making charm bracelets, photos with Ritchie and Balloon Ritchie, trivia, table and lawn games, interactive crafts, giveaways, and more.

    Ejiro Agbude, owner of The Esans Kitchen

    Church Potlucks Turned Campus Treasures

    Ejiro Agbude immigrated to Rochester from Delta State, Nigeria in 2016. Her only home away from home was the local community church, which welcomed a huge population of international students studying in Rochester, including a majority of African students. In little to no time, Ejiro was unanimously voted the ‘best cook at the church’ and was handed the responsibility of preparing all the meals for the community’s potluck events.
