Some quietly fade into the sunset, living off fat salaries with a job acquired by way of the elusive Rice degree that opens all doors. Others, like Griffin Smith for example, end up in Washington writing speeches for presidents. Bill Ballou became a lawyer for Baker & Botts and Darrel Hancock became a columnist for The Houston Post (remember J. Freshman Lawmaker?). The editor of The Houston Chronicle, Everitt Collier, was a former assistant editor to The Rice Thresher. Another well-known Thresher ex, William P.
