I Graduated from RISD last year. All the design departments are excellent.
The Graphic Design department is no exception, however the education there is unique. You'll learn more about design principles and gain a very good sense of typography rathen then how to use the latest software. Also the departments main goal is that you leave with social consciousness rathen then a desire to be a rock star. The facilities are great, not many other places where you can learn to make all your projects from scratch, and have all the equipment available. (like a typeshop)
Its an expensive school to run, but its worth it, especially when your sorounded by hard working people. As a bottom line you're only as good as those around you.
