Invitation for Public Comments The Community College of Rhode Island will undergo a comprehensive evaluation visit on March 3–6, 2024, by a team representing the New England Commission of Higher Education (formerly the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, NEASC).

The New England Commission of Higher Education is a U.S. accrediting commission that provides institutional accreditation. Accreditation is voluntary and applies to the institution as a whole.

The Commission, which is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, accredits approximately 220 institutions in the United States as well as American-style institutions overseas.

The Community College of Rhode Island has been accredited by the Commission since 1969 and was last reviewed in Spring 2014.

Its accreditation by the Commission encompasses the entire institution.

For the past year and a half, the Community College of Rhode Island has been engaged in a process of self-study, addressing the Commission’s Standards for Accreditation. An evaluation team will visit the institution to gather evidence that the self-study is thorough and accurate. The team will recommend to the Commission a continuing status for the institution.

Following a review process, the Commission itself will take the final action.

The public is invited to submit comments regarding the institution to: Public Comment on the Community College of Rhode Island New England Commission of Higher Education 301 Edgewater Place, Suite 210 Wakefield, MA 01880 E-mail: info@neche.org

Public Comments must address substantive matters related to the quality of the institution. The Commission cannot settle disputes between individuals and institutions, whether those involve faculty, students, administrators, or members of other groups. Comments will not be treated as confidential and must include the name, address, and telephone number of the person providing the comments.

Public Comments must be received by March 6, 2024.

The Commission cannot guarantee that comments received after that date will be considered.

Using Experimental Archaeology to Learn More About Flintlock Firearms, Part I

B

By Joel Bohy Historic Arms & Militaria Bruneau & Co. Auctioneers Cranston, RI

ack in 2013 during an archaeology project I was volunteering on, we were finding musket balls from the first day of the American Revolution. I remember during a break talking to archaeologist Doug Scott. He had done live-fire studies of arms related to the Civil and Indian Wars, but he mentioned how it would be really interesting to study the exterior ballistics of Revolutionary War small arms. I happened to have a collection of contemporary

custom-built reproductions of many flintlock fowling pieces, carbines, and muskets we could use for a study. In 2015 after the project was over, we set a date and spent three days shooting, metal detecting each fired ball, and recording all of the data. The next year we planned another and collected more data. All of this we published for historians and archaeologists to use.

In late 2019 while visiting the Jason Russell house in Arlington, Massachusetts and looking at the bullet holes from April 19, 1775 in the house, we decided a study was in order to verify if they were indeed bullet holes, and if we could find more. This led to a study of all of the remaining structures and objects that had bullet holes related to the first day of the Revolution.

Then COVID hit and slowed things down a bit. We were still able to keep working on the project, but visits and live-fire studies were not

in the cards. During that down time, we were able to do a lot of research and start to organize the information. We decided we needed to do another live-fire validation study and replicate some of the shots that we had recorded.

I was able to collect some of the materials we wanted to shoot and prepare for when we could get folks together and out to shoot. We had 18th century house sections built from original materials which dated to about the same time of some of the original structures. Since we recorded three indoor house shutters which had been shot in 1775, we also needed to find a shutter. One that had been reproduced in the late 19th or early 20th century was found and set aside. James Hayward of Acton had been shot through his powder horn on April 19, 1775, and we wanted to try and replicate that, if indeed we could hit the horn, so I found two plain antique horns cheap at shops and set them aside.

We were also able to get a grant from the American Society of Arms Collectors Foundation to help fund the live-fire study. Renting high-speed cameras costs money, as does getting a videographer and traveling to Massachusetts for the study.

The next step was finding a location to shoot and after reaching out to the Whitinsville Fish and Game Club in Douglas, Massachusetts, they agreed to let us hold the study there over a two-day period.

In my next article, I’ll talk about the live-fire study we had on two cold December days last year!

Buying your first home — what you need to know

B

By Jennifer Cosgrove O’Leary

uying your first home can be exciting, terrifying, and thrilling – often all at once! the numerous decisions and unfamiliar terms that come with the process, such as interest rates, mortgage insurance, preapproval…the list seems endless, but with the right guidance you can make it through the process with flying colors.

Having guided hundreds of people through the home buying journey, first-time home buyers hold a special place in my heart. i recently worked with a young couple who were determined to find their first home. tired of throwing their money away on rent, (which is basically 100 percent interest) but concerned they didn’t have enough money for a down payment, they were discouraged. at our very first meeting, we spent some time strategizing about what they needed to do. i Real Estate Experts In: Residential, Commercial, Aging In Place, Divorce, Investment, Relocation & Vacation

Home Exterior Trends for 2024

Page 14 .........The Reminder January 24, 2024

a

Family Features

home’s exterior is often the first thing guests or potential buyers see, meaning its curb appeal can have a significant impact on making a good first impression. Whether refreshing or renovating your home, staying current with exterior trends can help make a statement, increase your home’s value and enhance the comfort of your living space. if you’re looking to refresh or improve your home’s function and style in the new year, consider these 2024 home exterior trends from the experts at Westlake royal Building Products, a leader in innovation, design and production of exterior and interior building products including siding, trim, mouldings, roofing, stone, windows, outdoor living and more.

A Connection with Nature

Connecting people more closely with nature and natural elements, biophilic design can lead to increased well-being and productivity. Growing wellness and environmental concerns are driving demand for outdoor living space improvements and integration of nature in design, including elements like green roofs, living walls and large windows. you can create dramatic outdoor spaces by contrasting light and dark colors. For example, matte black can be paired with materials like brick, stone, shingles and wood for an eye-catching twist. Bold, earthy tones such as navy blue, forest green, dark brown and red can also be combined with nature-inspired materials for organic texture and warmth. Other trending colors for 2024 include vivid teal and aqua blue, which can induce a sense of serenity.

High-Performance Siding

as climate change continues to intensify and lead to severe weather, there is a growing need for highperformance, weather-resistant building products.

Homeowners continue to favor resilient materials that require less maintenance or replacement such as recycled vinyl, engineered wood and fiber cement, which maintain beauty and function.

Designed with innovation and performance in mind, Celect Cellular Composite siding, a premium PVC siding from Westlake royal Building Products, replicates the beauty and aesthetics of wood while remaining low maintenance and durable for a lifetime. Featuring a patented interlocking seam design, it keeps moisture out and almost completely eliminates seams. Plus, its Kynar aquatec coating provides superior protection against ultraviolet rays, reduces energy demands and resists dirt, seasonal staining and insects.

Functional Outdoor Living Spaces

Focused on creating seamless connections between interior and exterior spaces, this evolution in outdoor design includes integration of outdoor kitchens and living areas. elements such as fire pits, pizza ovens, outdoor entertainment and games can be incorporated to personalize the space and provide a unique entertaining hub. using cohesive materials and textures that can withstand the elements and flow from indoors to outdoors, such as stone veneer, can help elevate the space and further tie it to the home’s interior.

trends featuring elements such as vertical siding, crisp white trim and other modernized traditional styles as well as a shift away from minimalism that incorporates more nostalgic, personal touches to home exteriors, ushering in more of a transitional style.

Find more ideas to update your home’s exterior at WestlakeroyalBuildingProducts.com.

Mixed Materials and Textures

Blending various textures, finishes and materials on a home’s facade can create a unique, visually dynamic look. using a combination of materials like brick and vinyl siding or stone and wood can add depth and visual interest. an option like Versetta stone delivers the authentic look and feel of stone in a panelized format that is easy to install with screws or nails and requires no metal lath or scratch coat. the stone siding features a tongueand-groove system for perfect spacing, has a built-in rainscreen and can be installed almost anywhere without additional footings for support.

Transitional Takes on Tradition

a versatile design approach allows a home to transcend trends, ensuring its relevance and appeal over an extended period of time. in 2024, look for a rise in classic design
