@kiwi556 I agree with Antarius in that it doesn’t play a ROLE ROLE in admissions because of its nature. I have read somewhere that the Box tradition is so old in the rice admissions office that no one knows why it still continues. its just that: a tradition, a part of rice admissions that every applicant goes through. as long as you put something that is agreeing or consistent with the rest of your app (if you love nature, u have a picture of a valley or something, or if you like reading, you include books/bookshelf) then it will be good as it just confirms something about you. but even with that, don’t look too much into it and try to “outsmart” the admissions for this part because this part of the supplement is not the one to try it with (not saying that outsmarting any part of application is good either)…just my .02 cents
