URI opens renovated Independence Hall

SOUTH KINGSTOWN -- As classes begin this week, the University of Rhode Island reopens its largest academic building -- Independence Hall.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony at the building is scheduled for this morning.

Renovations on the building cost nearly $9 million.

Independence Hall is home to several of the institution's most popular majors, including English and communications.
