Rochester Institute of Technology announced today funds study-abroad programs through RIT

Rochester Institute of Technology announced today the creation of the Constellation Commons for Global Learning. The new facility is being funded by a $1 million donation from Constellation Brands Inc., the world’s leading wine company based in Victor.

The Constellation Commons for Global Learning is housed in RIT’s Global Village, a new residential complex and retail marketplace on campus, which officially opened last month. The commons is intended to serve students and faculty as a touch point and clearinghouse for all aspects of global education at RIT including study abroad and faculty exchange and multicultural programs.
