RISD announced yesterday that John Maeda will be taking over the role of President when Roger Mandle steps down at the end of his school year. Pretty cool! It wasn't the direction I expected the school to take, but considering I've currently got two library books with Maeda's name on the cover checked out for "fun reading," I can't complain.

Check out the great introductory interview with Maeda here. And props to my old team in interactive media, who I am sure produced the video!
