Brainy and beautiful? That's the consensus on the Rhode Island School of Design at Shermans Travel, which just named the Providence school in its Top 10 Campuses to Visit.

In an esteemed group chosen for their "sublime natural settings, historical significance, notable architecture, world-class cultural centers, and spirited sporting events" (okay, maybe not RISD so much), RISD is included with national powerhouses such as Harvard and Stanford Universities, as well as the University of Michigan and the University of Virigina.

Shermans cited RISD as the country's leading art school and called out the RISD Museum in particular. For the whole story, go here.
