        This is a gamesman’s move because they know the middle class won’t exist in a few years

        They have those in Houston too, you just need to know where to find it. I love LA! My favorite beer of all time came from Angel City Brewry

        Rice used to be completely tuition-free, no?

        Yes, until 1965 or so. Tuition has more than tripled in the past 15 years. After President Leebron arrived in 2004 he’s built three more residential colleges (there were 9) and I guess they needed to pay for it. This is a much needed adjustment. But tuition is still insanely $$$
