(WJAR) A mural painted nearly 70 years ago at the University of Rhode Island is set to be taken down after staff said students complained about a lack of diversity in the picture.
1954 was the dedication of “The Memorial Union” at the University of Rhode Island.
When veterans returned from World War II and enrolled at URI, they and other community members raised money in memory of those who lost their lives in the war.
