This is absolutely mind boggling in the sense that I cannot imagine who could have spent all this time doing this.

Rice is amazing!

Rice is fantastic, the people are great, and it doesn't snow here!

Rice is place full of crazy, caring people. If you come here, prepare to be challenged. There are a lot of ways to get involved, and whatever interests you have or what personality you have, there is a niche for you.

Basically, visit the campus. If it doesn't feel right, don't spend the next four years there. But other than that, I'd recommend it to anyone. I loved every minute of my four years there, and if I thought I could, I'd spend another.

There is not a lot left to say.. I love Rice. I love the opportunities it gave me and the education. I cannot say enough about the school and the people. I truly had an amazing time and I am so sad to be done!

I really wish someone would replace President Leebron. His long-term plan, his "Vision for the Second Century," is aimed at creating a school I would not have attended. Screw national rankings.

Women's track is awesome. :)

Rice is great!
