Pros

Roger Williams always gave the opportunity to connect and develop a relationship with your supervisor(s).

Cons

Because of the politics of a small, liberal, University, do not expect to move up in management unless you make the "right" connections. Also, the more money you personally have, the more likely you're going to make the "right" connections. A lot of interviewees are judged by their clothing, if you do not wear the correct brands, you will not get the job.

Pros

It is a lovely campus and there are a select group of people here who have a heart for the success of students and RWU.

Cons

Unfortunately a lot of politics, lack of growth opportunity, inconsistent messaging, and lack of clear organizational structure. Unfortunately there is a great volume of people who are trying to push personal career goals over the benefit, health, and growth of the Institution and students.
