He was an immigrant from Italy, could not speak nor write one word of English upon his arrival for his second try at immigration in 1908. Despite these impediments, he became, at least regionally, famous for his ability to plant trees, bushes, and anything else that would grow in the Gulf Coast plains of Texas.

Switching from a high school to a college curriculum can be kind of a scary transition, but have no fear! Rice has a number of well-trained faculty, staff and students to help you with your academic transition. A lot of your initial questions will be answered during O-Week, through presentations and academic planning sessions, in time for you to register for classes during orientation week. There is a list of people that are available for your entire career at Rice. They are a great resource and can really help you succeed in your first year and beyond. Divisional Advisors During O-Week, you will have a chance to meet with a faculty advisor within your school of interest, which you designated on your academic questionnaire this summer. He or she will give you general guidance with- in your division of study. These faculty advisors are a great resource for questions on academic rules, regulations and policies, general graduation requirements, campus resources, current educational opportunities for students, course planning, major considerations, study abroad, and other Rice and non-Rice opportunities. Your divisional advisor doesn’t serve as a resource only during O-Week, though. You can continue to meet with your divisional advisor after O-Week and even after you decide on a major. Plus, these advisors are associates at Jones, which means they often come hang out at the college at lunch or during Associates Night.
