A Shared Sense of Purpose
Can you sense new energy in our community? RISD alumni, parents and friends are stepping forward to ensure that the full potential of the RISD experience is available to every student.
What does this look and feel like on campus? It is increasing numbers of alumni helping prospective and current students realize their potential by guiding their academic decisions, mentoring and facilitating experiences on and off campus that will shape their lives and careers in profound ways. It is more financial aid being awarded so students can devote all their energy to learning and making. It is expanded support for materials, travel and internships. It is a diverse group of faculty makers and scholars delivering an extraordinary educational experience. It is campus spaces being improved to facilitate learning, community building and wellness.
At the very heart of it all, our community is committed to supporting student success. Thank you for attending regional events, visiting alumni.risd.edu, volunteering for leadership roles and service projects and making philanthropic gifts to RISD. Your dedication to RISD students is deeply appreciated.
