Student-athlete grad rates go up
While the football team might be struggling on the field, Rice athletics retains its dominance in the classroom with the release of the most recent student- athlete graduation success rates. The annual study of student-athlete graduation rates by the National Collegiate Athlete Association placed Rice sixth of 120 NCAA Division I-A schools in the nation, according to both the NCAA's graduation success rate and the federal graduation rate released in an online NCAA report two weeks ago.
