John Maeda, the next president of RISD // Dec 22, 04:44 PM

Wow Great for RISD.

The Board of Trustees of Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) announced on December 21, 2007 that John Maeda, Associate Director of Research at the MIT Media Lab, has accepted the offer to become the 16th president of RISD.

Maeda will be replacing Roger Mandle as the new president. Is John going to continue running PLW at MIT? Maeda’s write up is scant.

Update: Tuning Slide’s remarks. Absolutely agree.
