WHAT IS XYZ?
RISD XYZ is a magazine by and about alumni, and is designed to keep readers informed about the people, projects and passions that make RISD’s creative community so special. It does this by openly encouraging participation from alumni, capturing their creative energy and covering a broad range of issues of interest to artists, designers, educators and others in creative fields. As RISD’s primary print publication, RISD XYZ was first published in May 2010, replacing the college’s original magazine risd views (1995–2009). It is sent to all RISD alumni living in the US at no cost. International alumni are encouraged to download the pdf versions posted here or to opt-in to receive the printed piece through the mail. During the 2011–12 academic year, the magazine will be published in October and April.
