As the mom of a prospective student, can anyone please tell me what the alocohol/drinking situation is like at Rice? Is there much binge drinking? How do non-drinkers avoid loud/drunk partiers since there is no substance-free housing? My S is looking for a school where he doesn’t have to step over vomit on the bathroom floor, or deal with drunk students on his floor.

Any insight will be appreciated! Thanks.
