The other day I stumbled upon a postcard I don’t believe I’ve ever seen before, a straight shot of the front of the Administration Building with the Physics Building under construction off to the side and some interesting vehicles near the sallyport:
It’s postmarked from Houston in 1914, about the right date for the construction, and sent to a young woman in Chautauqua, Texas (a tiny town near Abilene which no longer exists). It doesn’t sound like either of them have any association with Rice but Carl seems to have had some sort of unpleasant run-in with education somewhere in his past:
Bonus:
