The Starbucks on this campus is also a life saver for me. I'm used to a Starbucks in every direction back in NY. So having one on campus is a big help when I have early classes.

But life has a funny way of circling back with plot twists. Over a decade later, I'm thrilled to be admitted to Brown University for my Master's! I joined the inaugural cohort of their Online Master's in Data Science: Policy, Governance & Society. I didn't think I'd get into such a small, competitive program, but I shot my shot. And I got in! I was very fortunate to be able to visit the Brown campus on my own dime for grad school orientation week. Brown clearly takes very good care of its community and students. I enjoyed attending multiple events, meeting fellow Brunonians, and exploring the gorgeous New England campus. Go Bears! Once a Cal Bear, always a Cal Bear. Now officially a Brown Bear too.

I walked by a sign that said Brown University. My mouth dropped and I smiled big... chuckling at myself. Everything was so peaceful and well-manicured (as expected from an Ivy League school). I blended in as I perused the campus, people watching the students go about their day. I love architecture and the buildings are beautiful. It was such a pleasant time!

The shuttle buses are very comfortable and spacious. For $40.00, a family cant beat the value that is provided for the 2 day orientation events. Parking was free both days and families received 2 meals on the first day as well as breakfast on the second. Bookstores are equipped with both books and swag. A little pricey, but thats typical of any campus bookstore. The Harborside Bookstore was geared toward the culinary students and therefore had most of their cutlery and cooking utensils. A great addition to this tour would have been a driving tour of both the Harborside and Downcity campuses...but understand such things cost money (especially the fuel).

All the culinary classes in one building and other classes in another. They were very organized when it came to the flow of the orientation schedule and definitely lessened that feeling of anxiety all beginning students have.

Not only were the students small-minded, cliquey, and just overall rude and aggressive individuals, but the academics and opportunities within the school are severely lacking. I studied Biology on the pre-med track and was consistently bounced around between three advisors. I never got the guidance that was bragged about when I toured the school and attended each info session. My advisors never knew who I was and always seemed to lead me down the wrong track. I was merely just a kid on the conveyor belt they needed to get out in 4 years. Now as I work through all the errors made during my undergrad years, I look back and curse my advisors and the school as a whole. They guaranteed I struggled for 4 years under their dismissive eyes and now, free from their grips, I'm still having to undo all the messes they left me with. Regardless of what your degree is, this school is not for you. It does not set you up for success; your connections mean nothing and don't translate into the real world; the professors have no pull outside of the gates on Cunningham. This school is a joke of an institution and I should have transferred when I had the chance. I beg you to strongly reconsider your application or acceptance into this establishment. You are wasting your money and your mental health will curse you for years to come. Providence College....do better.

Our…read morecity is lucky to have such a top notch liberal arts school within city limits, which allows for diversity, youth, and innovation to thrive in the area. The school was founded as a coeducational institution in 1877 by Helen Adelia Rowe Metcalf, who sought to increase the accessibility of design education to women. Today, RISD offers bachelor's and master's degree programs across 19 majors and enrolls approximately 2,000 undergraduate and 500 graduate students. The Rhode Island School of Design Museum--which houses the school's art and design collections--is one of the largest college art museums in the United States. The Rhode Island School of Design is affiliated with Brown University, whose campus sits immediately adjacent to RISD's on Providence's College Hill. The two institutions share social and community resources and since 1900 have permitted cross-registration. Together, RISD and Brown offer dual degree programs at the graduate and undergraduate levels. As of 2022, RISD alumni have received 10 MacArthur Genius fellowships, five Primetime Emmy Awards, and three Academy Awards. A 2016 analysis of the most successful American artists at auction found that the vast plurality held undergraduate degrees from RISD.

Every Saturday and…read moreSunday from April 6 through November 17 at 1:00 PM, there will be free Public Art Tours led by students. These tours will provide weekend enrichment through the exploration of Brown University's distinctive outdoor public art collection. With guidance from University Curator Nicole Wholean, students curated tours that feature a personal selection of 6 works from Brown's wide-ranging public art collection of over 30 pieces. The tour could range from 35-45 minutes. Saturday tours meet at the Eli Harvey sculpture, Bronze Bruno on the College Green. Sunday Tours meet at Tom Friedman's Circle Dance on the Campus Walk. No advance registration required, just arrive at the location before 1:00 PM. There are no public art tours on April 20 and 21, May 25 and 26, August 31, and September 1. On Sunday, August 11th, I was at Tom Friedman's Circle Dance on the Campus Walk about 12:45pm and stayed till 1:05pm, but no one showed up. The next day, I emailed artsinstitute@brown.edu and Nicole acknowledged there was a scheduling error and no one was scheduled to give a tour on Sunday. She apologized and confirmed a student will be giving a tour this Sunday, August 18th, so if I like I could try again. On Sunday, August 18th, I was at Tom Friedman's Circle Dance on the Campus Walk about 1:00pm and met Hayley, our guide. It was just a small group of 3. We started with Tom Friedman's Circle Dance which is a joyful, energetic sculpture inspired by Henri Matisse's La Danse (1910). The figures are first made a maquette out of aluminum roasting pans. Looking at this sculpture, you can feel the happiness from the figures. We then walked across the street to Maya Lin's Under the Laurentide installed at the east entrance of the Institute at Brown for Environment and Society (IBES) at 85 Waterman. This piece serves as a reminder of climate change and the urgency of the research taking place at the IBES. After, we walked to Simmons Quad to see the equestrian statue of Marcus Aurelius that stands at the rear of Sayles Hall. The statue is a copy of one now housed in the Capitoline Museum at Rome and one of only two replicas in the world. Next, we stopped at Giuseppe Penone's 2006 cast bronze sculpture entitled Idee de Pietra (Ideas of Stone). It is installed amongst the elms that create a perimeter around the Main Green and I never noticed it before even though I've walked by the Main Green plenty of times. Idee de Pietra is modeled after a nut tree, possesses a striking likeness in color, texture, and stature to the real thing. It stands 27 feet in height with a 5000 pound granite river stone is nestled amongst the branches. Balance is central to Idee de Pietra, presenting an invitation to consider the stone, perched amid the branches of the tree, as an intermediary between the forces of gravity and light. This was probably my favorite piece on the tour. My interpretation is the stone is a student and the branches around it are supporting the student either directly or indirectly. Following was an iron and stone sculpture installed in 2014 on the Quiet Green. This was designed by Martin Puryear and created as "a living site of memory, inviting reflection and fresh discovery without provoking paralysis or shame" symbolizing a move toward infinite freedom even as the weight of history remains half-buried. The sculpture serves as a crucial everyday reminder of Brown's historical ties to the trans-Atlantic slave trade and the work of Africans and African-Americans, enslaved and free, who helped build Brown University, Rhode Island, and the nation. Second to last stop was Henry Moore's Reclining Figure No. 2 -- Bridge Prop (also known as Three Piece Reclining Figure) installed on the Main Green. This is an exploration of the body through the interconnectedness of its various bifurcated pieces. The work was inspired by Waterloo Bridge, London. Last stop was the seven-foot Bronze Bruno statue sculpted by New York City animalier Eli Harvey and casted by the Gorham Manufacturing Company in 1923. This statue was paid for by $10,000 of donations from Brown alumni. Strength, courage, and endurance are inscribed on the front plaque of the bear and represents Brown University students. On the back of the bear, there is a piece of "Slate Rock" on which Roger Williams supposedly landed in 1636. I really enjoyed the free Public Art Tours led by Hayley. As she is a recent graduate of Brown University, she added antidotes about her time at Brown and the pieces she showed us were really thought provoking. Our tour finished at 1:35pm. Hayley mentioned that each tour guide curates their own tour and have their own stories about the art so it'll be a different experience each time.
