If you like your brawn with brains, you’ll appreciate the International Scholar-Athlete Hall of Fame (3045 Kingstown Rd., Kingston, 401/874-2375, www.internationalsport.com/sa_hof [1], 10 a.m.–5 p.m. Mon.–Fri.; Sat. and Sun. by appointment, free), a quirky museum on the URI campus that honors those who “exemplify the scholar-athlete ideal.” Its egalitarian list of honorees includes Jackie Robinson, George H. W. Bush, and Plato.
