<p>Yeah, I heard about that a few months ago when visiting both Brown & RISD. I considered it, but I'm really looking for a liberal-arts education, and this education sounds sort of fractured to me--a year on one campus, a year on another? Not cohesive.</p>

<p>The campuses are right across from each other. Most buildings are within blocks of each other's campus.</p>

<p>I know, but the sense of "belonging" or "community"--I worry it wouldn't be strong enough for my taste. (Brown's the biggest school I'm looking at; all the others are small LACs)</p>

<p>Old news!</p>

<p>But still, a nice refresher.</p>
