THE MAGAZINE of RICE UNIVERSITY WINTER 2002 Owls Are Erudite -44 THE MAGAZINE OF RICE UNIVERSITY WINTER 2002 Owls are erudite. No one quite knows when this became almost universally accepted. Perhaps the whole thing began with the owls of Athena, Greek goddess of wisdom. In more contemporary times, owls can be found in the Winnie the Pooh stories, Walt Kelly's famous Pogo cartoons, and those ubiquitous Harry Potter books. The list goes on and on. Owls also have played a significant role at Rice since the beginning. A trio of Athenian owls graces our academic seal, which was created by Pierre de Chaignon la Rose in 1912. Rice athletes were dubbed the Owls in their very first season of play. Depictions of owls can be found everywhere on campus. And owl statues in various media often serve as thank-you gifts for visiting dignitaries. The variety of owls on campus doesn't usually include Arctic snowy owls (although check out Yesteryear), so we thought we'd import one by wildlife photographer Eric Dresser as a properly seasonal cover for this winter's Salt.iport. To order prints of the snowy owl on the cover, contact the photographer at 315-765-9772 or visit his website at http://ecdphoto.tripod.com. THE MAGAZINE OF RICE UNIVERSITY • WINTER 2002 yport FE AT UR ES 18 UNLIKE ANY IN EUROPE Nearly a century after Edgar Odell Lovett adopted European ideals of education to lay the foundation of Rice University,Rice has returned the favor by helping mold Europe's first private research university.
