Houston’s prestigious Rice University has been hit hard by Harvey. Though the school will officially remain closed through Wednesday, one wonders how students will even be able to attend class at all.
Though nothing of this proportion has ever been witnessed in Houston, my issue of the 1975 Rice yearbook shows students out and about in lesser downpours. Houston, in my own experience, can flood at the drop of a dime.
I bet none of these students could ever have imagined what happened this past weekend at their alma mater. Please pray for Houston.
I’ve heard it said that Houston floods if you cry too hard. Topology notwithstanding, this is an incredible deluge and absolutely dreadful for those afflicted.

We were there last summer and it must have only rained 10 minutes before the entire Highway was flooded and I remember being scared to continue driving with the water so high on our tires. Of all the cities for this to happen to…
