RICE
UNIVERSITY LECTURE CANCELLED
The lecture by professor
and author Susan Estrich—scheduled for Wednesday, September 12, at Rice
University—has been cancelled.
Estrich’s talk was to be
the first in the 2001-2002 President’s Lecture Series.
Rice University is consistently ranked one of America’s
best teaching and research universities. It is distinguished by its: size-2,700
undergraduates and 1,500 graduate students; selectivity-10 applicants for each
place in the freshman class; resources-an undergraduate student-to-faculty ratio
of 5-to-1, and the fourth largest endowment per student among private American
universities; residential college system, which builds communities that are both
close-knit and diverse; and collaborative culture, which crosses disciplines,
integrates teaching and research, and intermingles undergraduate and graduate
work. Rice’s wooded campus is located in the nation’s fourth largest city and on
America’s South Coast.
