My older sister goes there.
Things that I have learned about RISD from visiting her occasionally:
"hard" drug use it much much higher than any other university I've ever been to.
The kids there sleep much much less than any other university I've ever seen, and it seems to be mostly the tedious parts of their projects that eat their time.
Providence is a huge ghetto, looks trashy, and is quite dangerous.
All that said, RISD is probably the best art school in the country and good job on getting in.
Oh, and about the sports, it goes farther than chanting Go Nads!
Their mascot (official school mascot) is a dude in a giant penis costume with gigantic balls and a little red cape named scrotty. No lie.
