Rice University kicked off the start of Latine Heritage Month with food and festivities! Berny (McMurtry ‘26) shares how Rice students celebrate the history, contributions and achievements of Latino/a/e/x communities during this very special month.

Houston is a foodie paradise, home to over 10,000 restaurants spanning a variety of budgets, ambiences and cuisines. Here are some Rice favorites.

Rice Owls often remark that campus is a bubble. Although our campus is always active and has many events put on for students, the city of Houston has many options too. Throughout the semester, Nimah and Devin have been using their weekends to explore Houston’s bakeries, restaurants, markets, libraries, and more to immerse themselves in the greater Houston community & culture.
