How strong is Rice in the humanities?

<p>Everyone knows that Rice is a science powerhouse (biosciences and chem, especially) but how strong are the English, philosophy, etc. departments? Sorry for all the dumb questions, but I'm trying to learn as much about Rice as I can.</p>

<p>I've heard the philosophy department is topnotch..</p>

<p>Most of your questions can be answered in more detail by using the search function. Suffice to say, the humanities department, at least for philosophy, is very strong. I would provide reasons, but I am short on time. You will, however, find more detailed reasons if you perform a search.</p>

<p>Thanks for the tip nspeds. New user, new tricks.</p>
