Students
 STUDENT FORUM |
Students, the next generation of scholars and statesmen, should be
enriched through participation in this dialogue and go on to become
better scholars and statesmen as a result. This is a tall order. Yet I believe here at Rice we have the commitment, the resources and, above all, the people to make a first-rate institute. In bridging the worlds of ideas and action, I believe the institute should pursue an integrated approach that draws together various efforts from across this campus. While we emphasize the conduct and dissemination of research that is practical and timely, we need to use the knowledge found in that process to educate students, both graduate and undergraduate.
