Mission
BARC is a student-led organization founded by nursing students with a shared interest in understanding the impact of human-animal interactions - particularly with dogs - on stress reduction and overall well-being. 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. By advancing knowledge in this emerging field, the organization contributes to a greater understanding of the role of animal-assisted interventions in improving well-being.

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.

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.
