<p>Being at Yale now, I have to say that the new Rice gym is absolutely top-notch and beats Yale’s gym hands-down. You’ll fall in love with the gym that you won’t want to skip out on a day’s workout. All the machines have TV monitors (ok, maybe not all, but most of them) with a huge channel selection. Some of the treadmills have special Ipod incorporations where you can charge your Ipods or watch videos from them as you work-out. The architecture of the building is just beautiful. And there are plenty of courts to shoot hoops. </p>
<p>As for LPAP, I got rid of my 2 requirements Freshman year. All that matters is whether you get up early enough and have a good internet connection.</p>
