Rice: the embodiment of conservatism

It should be evident that Rice is, simply put, awesome. We routinely win quality of life awards; every Owl knows that, if there is paradise on Earth, then it surely lies within the hedges. It is harder, though, to find out what exactly sets ?Rice apart.Plenty of other schools have great education opportunities and professors, and many others have intelligent student bodies. The answer might surprise some, but I firmly believe what separates Rice from the nation's other institutions is a tried and true ?conservative philosophy.
