<p>I'm thinkin about going to rhode island college in providence rhode island. I'm from NY but I heard its a commuter college so the expeirence won't be that great. Any input on the night life and just general activites during the day would be apperciated.</p>
<p>RIC has been building new dorms like crazy recently. Yes, it is a commuter school, but that is slowly changing. Being in Providence, closer to the population centers than URI certainly helps RIC lure students. Providence is a great little city, while URI is in southern RI, surrounded by------ nothing, really.</p>
