Paul Gregory, 1993 Jones College, a Rice tradition that's most meaningful to me. Probably beer bike. Ah, back when I was at Jones, ah, Jones was always winning the beer bike competition. Uh, but what I liked most about it was the, the teamwork that, that exhibited, you

00:00:24.200 - 00:00:41.700

know, the, the people who are drinking the, the liquids and the people who are riding the, the bikes, ah, then the teamwork and getting the, the bike off the biker off immediately after the, the, the drinker had finished. Um, it showed what, what teamwork was really

00:00:41.709 - 00:01:01.729

all about. I think that's something you can take into, uh, the world once you leave, uh, Rice University that in most instances, in order to get something done you will need to work in teams. Um, and that's probably the advice I would, I would share is

00:01:01.740 - 00:01:25.389

that, uh, uh, everyone at Rice is quite smart. Uh, but the, the wisdom of crowds is, is usually better than the wisdom of a single individual. Uh, and then I would also encourage everyone to, to always challenge common wisdom, uh, ask questions and not just take

00:01:25.400 - 00:01:26.519

things at face value.
