In addition to continuing their learning from home, Rice students were given ample opportunities to live the Rice mission of faith, and service. Fr. Steve Marchand and Campus Ministry Director Elisabetta Anelli streamed our morning prayer live from our social media platforms. Bishop Coyne said Mass for Rice grandparents on Ascenion Thursday. And, students were urged to use their extra time at home to help others.

For example, prompted by her students, history teacher Sarah Smith Conroy rallied over 100 students and their families to make dinner for clients of the The Salvation Army Burlington every Wednesday between April break and the end of school. Learn more about Rice Wednesdays HERE.
