[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have kid at Rice. The residential college system is a HUGE part of what makes Rice so unique. You're not getting that at Hopkins or Duke. To the poster above who suggested W&M, I agree that they are a similar blend of nerdy/friendly. Re: Texas avoidance. I don't love Texas, but the weather during the academic year is actually kind of awesome and my super liberal kid is managing ok. [/quote] Rice parent here. yes, the residential college system is taken so seriously-they start from orientation week to the graduation walk. It builds for such special community. [/quote] My DC who transferred out of Rice said that the residental college system was very socially isolating. As in, not much social interaction with kids in other RCs. So if you don’t click with the others in your RC, you’re screwed.[/quote]
