Being mentioned on IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson with Michelle Obama during the ICONIC conversation with Phylicia Rashād and Debbie Allen was such a special moment for Rice University | School of Humanities and Arts and MCLLC.

Hearing them honor the brilliant legacy, creative spirit, and history of their mother and riceuniversity LEGEND—Dr. Vivian Ayers Allen—in the same breath as our school was an ineffable experience that we fear we will never recover from.

In this era of acceleration, automation, and perceived disconnection, it’s always a breath of fresh air to witness students (& parents!) run towards the Humanities and Arts. We’re a little over halfway through Orientation Week and already feeling hopeful about what the next generation of humanists will build.

If you didn’t get a chance to stop by Humanities and Arts sessions (yes, even if it wasn’t on your radar), meet us at the undergraduate research fair in Grand Hall next Wednesday. 🫱🏼‍🫲🏾
