[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a Bostonian who lived in Houston for a few years and Rice is awesome. Fantastic academics, beautiful campus. If your kid is nervous about Texas or the south (as people here sometimes say) they shouldn't be - Houston is a great city in its own way, great food, year-round outdoor activity, really diverse in every respect, including politics. Rice's relationship to the city is somewhat analogous to Georgetown in DC - not far from the downtown (to the extent there is one in Houston, which is not really) but grassy and surrounded by a lovely neighborhood with cute shops. And your kid won't be there for the worst months of the year in terms of weather.[/quote] Good write up. My DD is a recent Rice graduate, and we can’t say enough good things about the school. I was so impressed by how closely the academic advisors work with students. The ones she had used their network to help her with internships and her first job post-gradation, and have advised her re the best options for PhD programs. Also, there is so much great food in Houston! I hope my youngest can go there as well. [/quote]
