The purpose of this organization is to teach my peers about the positives, negatives, and best ways to use AI, so we don’t get left behind. Some goals I have for this organization are to create a welcoming environment that can foster creativity alongside passionate ideas. I also need to show my peers the ethics behind AI culture; we want people to understand that AI can be dangerous. There are no affiliates with this club yet. The organizations purpose stays consistent with the university's Mercy Mission, by creating a club that anyone can join, and an environment inside of the club that makes everyone feel equally heard and understood.

The group was formed to conduct research on how engaging with animals can serve as a therapeutic intervention, especially within healthcare settings. Through evidence-based research, hands-on learning, and community engagement, BARC empowers nursing students to explore and promote the integration of pet therapy into holistic nursing care.

The mission of the Jesus Club at Salve Regina University is to create a
welcoming, supportive, and faith-centered community where students can
learn about Jesus, engage with Scripture, and grow both personally and
spiritually. The club exists as a safe and healthy space for people from all
backgrounds—whether seasoned in their faith or simply curious—to gather in
fellowship and encourage one another in exploring Christian values. We
believe that building authentic relationships through prayer, discussion, and
service reflects the mission of the University by fostering respect, compassion,
and spiritual growth. Through weekly gatherings, Bible study, and open
dialogue, we aim to help students navigate their college years with purpose
and faith as a guiding light. Our club also emphasizes inclusivity, ensuring that
all students are welcome regardless of their faith tradition or prior experience.
By walking alongside each other in our journeys, the Jesus Club hopes to
inspire positive change on campus, cultivate deeper understanding of God’s
love, and empower students to live out their values in everyday life.

Morgans Message was created because Morgan died by suicide July 11, 2019 at the age of 22. Although her life was cut way too short, Morgan’s legacy of unconditional love remains. Her energy empowers those she has left behind to transform devastation into action. We elevate her story to provide a platform where others feel safe to share their own, be a catalyst for change within our mental healthcare systems and foster a community for which tomorrow always exists. Morgan’s Message is clear: as an athlete, there is no shame in seeking physical healthcare -- the same should
be true for mental healthcare. In order to close the gap, we must eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health together. There is no previous mental health athletic or involvement club at Salve, it supports students and our community. We can bring awareness and create a more tight-knit community. We plan to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health within the high school and collegiate student-athlete community. Equalize the treatment of physical and mental health in athletics. Normalize conversations in safe spaces. Encourage peer-to-peer connections. Empower those who suffer in silence and support those who feel alone. While building an all volunteer campus ambassador network.

Mission
The mission of this academic organization is to further the connection between both the undergraduate and graduate pools of Salve students, with an opportunity to further collaborate and connect. With the Pre-Health club allowing for overall familiarity with other students interested in taking on a health-related career, this club will narrow that interest to the specifics of dentistry. In doing so, this club will provide a natural feeling of belonging amongst pre-dental students and even offer those in the pre-health field to consider pursuing or entertaining this idea.

Membership Benefits
This organization will allow for representation and association with the RI Dental Association meetings for practitioners and educational speakers for us to participate in and later benefit from.

Our goal is to encourage meaningful conversation, promote a love for
reading and literature, and create a safe-pace for everyone's thoughts to be
heard. Through reading books across different genres and cultures, we aspire
to deepen our knowledge of the world and of one another. We want Salve
students to tighten their reading community and hopefully, bring others who
are introverts, into our community with welcoming arms. Not only do we want
to come together to discuss books, but through this, we strive to deepen our
connections with one another and enhance our friendships with others in our
club, whom we might not have if it weren’t through a shared love of reading.

The mission of the Salve Regina Film Club is to understand, analyze, and discuss film and literature profoundly and critically so that members can grasp the meaning and impact of the visual medium that continues to influence our society. The club aims to create a strong sense of community where students can actively express their opinions and foster an environment in which members accept and celebrate diverse cultural values through honest conversations. Students will watch films from various genres during regular screenings and critique works in terms of cinematography, scripting, acting, and more. Through these activities, participants will deepen their cultural understanding and gain a more comprehensive appreciation of cinema. While technology, like smartphones and social media, has transformed our lives for greater convenience, it has inevitably caused a significant loss of communal experiences that we enjoyed in the past. Consequently, we live in an era witnessing an unprecedented fragmentation of media and culture where people share little in common despite superficial online connections. However, films, with their unique ability to evoke emotions and provoke thought, can play a significant role in developing a collective sense of experience as a common language of entertainment. Considering that cultural fragmentation and content overload seem only to accelerate, people need a community where they can speak, listen, and share their thoughts with others in person more than ever. The Salve Regina Film Club seeks to offer such opportunities for students here so everyone can join and appreciate a sense of belonging.

The Salve Regina Film Club focuses on developing a diverse and inclusive community that shows equal respect for students from various backgrounds, including race, gender, age, nationality, and religion. The organization encourages students to actively participate in discussions with peers and gain new perspectives from those with unique personalities. Through honest and direct conversations, participants will obtain a deeper understanding of cultures they may not necessarily explore in academic programs. This marks one of the club's most crucial benefits, as many people today seem to fail to recognize the difference between the knowledge they acquire online and the knowledge they gain from others in person. Even though we can search virtually for everything on the Internet, such knowledge can be incorrect and may not resonate with us in a true sense. While quick online research benefits us, direct interaction with others is a decisive factor in internalizing new ideas. The Salve Regina Film Club will function as an abundant source from which students can enrich their college lives by providing them with frequent interactions with club members. Film discussions offer fantastic material for extracting thought-provoking ideas and ideologies due to their powerful storytelling and well-crafted writing. Salve Regina University can benefit from gaining more students with critical minds, diverse perspectives, and stronger communication skills, which galvanizes the Salve Regina community as a whole.

At STITCH, we believe fashion is more than fabric it is the art of speaking without words, the language of dreams, and the living proof that creativity has no boundaries. Every piece we design, every outfit we style, and every thread we sew tells a story that words alone could never capture. Fashion, to us, is a reflection of the soul — a powerful medium through which we can express our hopes, struggles, cultures, and identities without ever needing to say a thing.

We are more than a club; we are a family of creators, dreamers, and change makers who believe in the transformative power of self-expression. We celebrate every color, every story, and every style, recognizing that true beauty lies in diversity and authenticity. Whether bold or understated, traditional or avant-garde, every expression has a home at STITCH. Here, differences are not just accepted — they are honored and uplifted as essential parts of our collective masterpiece.

Our impact stretches far beyond the walls of our campus. Every event we host, every project we create, and every connection we make ripples outward, weaving a network of creativity and compassion that touches the world beyond Salve Regina University. We believe that when we come together with open hearts and bold visions, there is no limit to what we can create.

The mission of Turning Point USA at Salve Regina University is to educate and
engage students on the importance of freedom, limited government, free
markets, and fiscal responsibility. We are committed to fostering civil
discourse, encouraging open minded dialogue, and creating opportunities for

building a stronger and more inclusive community. We will use the resources
and support provided by Turning Point USA’s national organization, including
weekly activism pamphlets, short educational videos, contributor speeches,
and in-person staff guidance. These resources allow us to host events, share
information, and promote non-partisan, thought-provoking discussions on
campus.
