[quote=Anonymous]Rice grad again. So, as to the atmosphere. When I was there, the student body was very small, and it was divided into 9 "colleges", which made it feel even smaller. It's a large campus, even the dorm rooms were roomy (my boyfriend's dorm room at Baker was nothing short of enormous. Studio apartment size, all to himself). So it did have a quiet feel. Also, many of the kids there were off-scale smart, but completely not interested in a social life. There really were some odd ducks. I was a very social person and the first semester felt like a let-down. That said, I found my people. People I am still close to today. I was very happy there in the end. And I'm thankful I wasn't at a fratty school with heavy drinking and a hook-up culture. It was a safe space. I would feel confident sending my daughter there. Congratulations to you daughter. She should be super proud she was accepted, even if she goes in another direction! [/quote]
