| Baylor is a religiously affiliated school, but Rice isn't.  I assume there is no religion requirement at Rice. | |

| hehe... I would also venture to say that Rice is a much better school than Baylor, partially based on the fact that Baylor sent me a 2 page application that required no essay and told me I would have a response within two weeks of them receiving my transcripte. | |

| See, I just don't like offending people, and I know quite a few who are going to Baylor (living in Texas makes it like that). Yes, Rice >>> Baylor. | |

| I am quite outspoken in my dislike of Baylor. There is actually some censoring of the professors and monitoring of course content. It has a strong Baptist leaning. Not all the kids are that way, of course, but it is a sorry excuse for a major university. Rice is at the opposite end of the spectrum. Strong academics with a lot of respect for individual differences. There is plenty of opportunity to be involved in religious groups (of your choosing) but no pressure and no restrictions on the faculty. | |

| "censoring of the professors and monitoring of course content."
Wow. An institute of higher learning. How about a daycare? That makes me sick at my stomach. | |
