CAMPUS INFORMATION [return to top]

Building Permits
A student building permit is issued to you on the first night of class. This permit allows you access to RISD buildings, the Library, the Nature Lab and other facilities.

Lockouts
Should you encounter a lockout, you may contact a Public Safety Officer to assist you by calling 401 454-6376 using a standard phone or by using a red or beige wall phone in the lobby of any RISD building. Please be prepared to show your building permit and a picture ID.

Emergency Procedures
Public Safety is located at 30 Waterman Street. It is staffed 24 hours a day and is the office to call for all emergencies. From RISD phones dial ext. 6666 or (for some of the outdoor phones) simply pick up the receiver to be connected to Public Safety. In an emergency on campus, a call to ext. 6666 initiates a faster response than a call to 911. In an emergency off campus only, dial 911. Public Safety’s non-emergency extension is 6376 (from standard phones, 401 454-6376).

Health and Safety
RISD makes every effort to maintain a safe, secure campus. However, there are things that you should do to increase your personal safety. Some suggestions:
· park in well-lit lots
· walk in groups of two or more
· always be aware of your surroundings
· take advantage of the RISD Rides shuttle (please be prepared to show your building permit)
· contact Public Safety (401 454-6376) for an escort, especially when walking alone
· never work alone in studios
· familiarize yourself with the location of emergency phones, inside and outside of buildings
· report any suspicious activity to Public Safety
· some art and design techniques require the use of toxic materials; identify such materials and use caution when handling them. If you are pregnant or have a respiratory problem, please discuss alternative solutions with your instructor
