Other than baseball, there haven't been a lot of things since the 1960s.

I came to Rice because I thought I could get an Ivy-League-quality education while enjoying big-time athletics. There weren't many places that offered that combination. I think I got the first part, but Rice has spent the last 55 years going out of its way to deny me the second.

One thing about that education, and I would like to see how others feel about this. I don't really have that many memorable classes or professors. Where I feel I learned more than anywhere else was from the interactions with truly amazing fellow students.
