Rice Austin Book Club
The Austin-area Rice alumni book club is a general reading and discussion group open to all interested alumni in the area. Our reading list is chosen yearly from member suggestions and spans an assortment of genres and periods, including both fiction and non-fiction. We meet on the first Monday of each month to discuss our selected book, and members are welcome to attend as their schedule permits. If you enjoy discussing your reading with others or would like to keep in touch with more alumni in the area, please look us up!
