    Tier 1 in research was a huge step, but now the real work begins... undergrad.

    Of course the mullets over on Cullen conveniently failed to note the only Tier 1 university in the city, Rice University.

    but yes, I'm pleased to hear UH is making strides forward

    Is Rice Tier 1 research?

    I assume it is.

    Probably left off Rice since it's private and this is a very public-driven initiative.

    Not sure how you internet sleuths missed the obvious hidden message in that statement. I highlighted the important characters for you noobs.

    The email clearly states "public" twice.

    Congrats to UH! I'm getting my MBA there so it's always exciting to see the school improve its brand. Too bad they're not "officially" tier one. Glad to see they're moving in the right direction.

    Yes, thanks, I read it, Mensa. They were being cute trying to avoid giving DADDY RICE their credit.

    UTSA will be a better school than UofH in 10 years.
