@CTstrider CONGRATS on Rice (and the others)!!! We are in Houston and Rice is a fabulous school. Voted many times the happiest campus or something like that. Have many friends and business associates who graduated from Rice. It is in a nice area of Houston, there is tons to do. Big city but the campus feels like a campus. No greek system if that’s important but they have the “Harry Potter system” of houses which serves as a group and identity. Cannot say enough good things. Sadly our child wanted nothing to do with it since it is 10 minutes from our house!
