[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is a student at Rice -- it's a very friendly and welcoming community, and there are many Catholic students, including a significant Latino population. [/quote] Rice is about 12% Hispanic in a city that is 35% Latino[/quote] Rice draws students from all over the US and the world; in light of this, you can't expect the student population to mirror Houston's. That said, Rice has a much higher percentage of Latino students than its peer institutions. Moreover, Rice is commited to diversity in a way that goes much deeper than numbers. We are on our 3rd time around in the college admissions process and Rice is the only school we have toured where students and faculty talk about the quality of interaction among students of different races, ethnicities and religions. As a family of Latino and Asian heritage, this means a lot to us. It's our DD's first-choice for this and many other reasons. [/quote]
