Rivier graduate Irelynn Mullen ’25 never imagined herself in a chemistry lab.

But when an internship opportunity arose to become a student researcher conducting lab work on campus, she took a chance. Through hands-on research and Rivier’s partnership with NH‑INBRE, Irelynn presented a biomedical research project and found a passion that led to her career as an Upstream Production Chemist at LGC Standards in Manchester, N.H.

What began as a step outside her comfort zone led Irelynn to discover what’s possible.

First Look Friday gave our newest on-campus residents a special preview of their future home before move-in day.

Rivier Residence life and housing students had the opportunity to explore their residence hall, step inside their assigned rooms, spend time in common spaces, connect with key campus offices, and start building relationships with their future roommates. For those who couldn’t make it to campus, virtual room tours were also available to help them get familiar with their new surroundings.

We’re excited to welcome you to campus this fall. See you soon! 🫡

Construction of Rivier Village Phase 2 is complete, and we are ready to welcome students to the new residence halls this fall! The four buildings will house 150 students in modern apartment-style units with single and double bedrooms, designed for comfort, independence, and community.

This milestone marks another important step in enhancing the Rivier student experience and meeting the growing demand for on-campus housing. We can't wait to see students make Rivier Village their new home this fall.
