It's convertible weather in Houston all year round (sans August's
tropics), Houston is very inexpensive to live in, and it's a highly
cosmopolitan town. Second only to NYC in Fortune 500 headquarters, the
energy capital of the world, the Space City is a commercial juggernaut.
The sports scene is very big here with every major team imaginable and
downtown's theater district ranks second only to NYC in terms of size
and productive activity.
The Business School at Rice sits in the middle of campus in a new $60MM
building designed by Yale's Robert A. M. Stern. Rice's campus is an
idelylic colliegate environment filled with Morrocan brick and Italian
marble buildings along live-oak-lined paths. The University is bordered
by the Texas Medical Center, Herman Memorial Park, the city's museum
district, Rice Village shopping area, and the exclusive neighborhoods of
Shadyside and Southampton. Imagine Princeton's campus in the heart of
the nation's fourth-largest city next to neighborhoods similar to Lake
Forest, IL and Greenwich, CT and you're starting to get the picture.
