Abstract

After a brief history of nucleon spin crisis I will motivate the need for a high energy polarized proton collider. I will then describe the distinct advantages of this new facility to study the spin structure of the proton. I will highlight the recent achievements of the RHIC Spin program from the experimental side, and review the achievements in terms of physics impact now and in near future.
