Graduation from Rice

Back in the apartment following the ceremony.

Five years of slugging away at my studies culminated in May 1969 with my graduation from Rice University. On that day I received both the Bachelors and the Masters degree - this complication is explained in a different memory on the draft.

I don’t really recall a lot about the ceremony other than friends and parents.

The iconic Rice diploma - in the shape of an ern (maybe a play on words).  This is my Masters, I have one for my Bachelors also.
