‘Because even Mother Earth loves the last day of classes’

The Rice Environmental Club postponed Rice’s celebration of Earth Day
by one day so that it would coincide with the last day of classes,
April 23. Environmental organizations from around campus set up tables
to share information and refreshments in Ray Courtyard. Above: Junior
