The Rice Engineering Show

Here’s the latest video, this time about the Rice Engineering Show. I admit I get a kick out of it: I was feeling quite frazzled when Brandon came over to shoot, but he coaxed me through it by making me laugh. Some might say I’m becoming a diva. They’d better not let me hear them, though.

Bonus: Imagine my surprise when I walked into the Woodson and was immediately confronted with the stern visage of General Pershing!

He must have found out that they’re putting up a plaque by that pecan tree he planted.

Extra bonus: This morning a commenter sent a link to this piece about Ruby South Lowry (’19), who I showed a few days ago with a Biology Department rabbit. If you have a minute, please go read it. A simply written story about a woman of fundamental human decency, it brought tears to my eyes.
