Coffee & Scripture is Rhody Christian Fellowship's weekly in-depth Bible study. We discuss God, the Bible, and how it applies to our lives. We don't dodge the difficult parts of the Bible; we seek to understand them. Your questions are encouraged! Any students (regardless of your religious background or affiliation) are welcome to join us. If you don't have a Bible, we can provide you with one. Plus, we'll have free coffee!Note: We also have another time available if you can't make the 4:00 study. The 7:30 pm Coffee & Scripture meets in the Memorial Union downstairs (near the sushi place). Both Bible studies are the same, so pick the time that works best for your schedule and come join us!Visit URInvolved for complete event details.

Please join us for the 2025 Charles and Marie Fish Lecture featuring Jainey Bavishi, former Deputy Administrator of NOAA and former Director of New York City’s Office of Climate Resiliency.Details and RegistrationAs climate impacts accelerate and uncertainty grows, communities across the country are redefining what it means to be resilient. In this fireside chat, Jainey Bavishi will explore how equity, local leadership and civic collaboration form the backbone of effective climate action, even as traditional systems face strain. Drawing on lessons from city halls, federal agencies, and frontline communities, the conversation will highlight how resilience can endure and evolve from the ground up.Also featuring Tracey Dalton, Ph.D., director of Rhode Island Sea Grant and professor of Marine Affairs at the University of Rhode Island.

Please see below for the next talk in the fall seminar series organized by the Institute for AI & Computational Research on AI/ML techniques and applications across various scientific domains. You can find a table of upcoming talks here: https://web.uri.edu/iacr/seminars/.Speaker: Kaleel Mahmood (URI)Date/Time/Location: Dec 4, 3pm, Memorial Union room 308.Title: Busting the Paper Ballot: Voting Meets Adversarial Machine LearningAbstract: Can adversarial machine learning change the outcome of US election? We present the security risk associated with using machine learning classifiers in United States election tabulators. The central classification task in election tabulation is deciding whether a mark does or does not appear on a bubble associated to an alternative in a contest on the ballot. Barretto et al. (E-Vote-ID 2021) reported that convolutional neural networks are a viable option in this field, as they outperform simple feature-based classifiers. Our contributions to election security can be divided into four parts. To demonstrate and analyze the hypothetical vulnerability of machine learning models on election tabulators, we first introduce four new ballot datasets. Second, we train and test a variety of different models on our new datasets. These models include support vector machines, convolutional neural networks (a basic CNN, VGG and ResNet), and vision transformers (Twins and CaiT). Third, using our new datasets and trained models, we demonstrate that traditional white box attacks are ineffective in the voting domain due to gradient masking. Our analyses further reveal that gradient masking is a product of numerical instability. We use a modified difference of logits ratio loss to overcome this issue (Croce and Hein, ICML 2020). Fourth, in the physical world, we conduct attacks with the adversarial examples generated using our new methods. In traditional adversarial machine learning, a high (50% or greater) attack success rate is ideal. However, for certain elections, even a 5% attack success rate can flip the outcome of a race. We show such an impact is possible in the physical domain.
