...don’t know if it’s possible for someone of another faith to be comfortable with our purpose, but if it is possible, we would accept them,” said Nicholas T. Siler ’05, who represented the group at the meeting...
...expenses-paid trip. Rice urges counselors from high schools with large minority populations to nominate qualified students. And in the fall, Rice sends two recruiters on the road to find minority applicants; each recruiter visits about 80 predominantly black or Hispanic high schools.

Had he not been on leave that day, Siler would probably have been killed with his buddies. "There's a lot of places in Mogadishu that remind me of Beirut," he says. His voice cracks. "I hope nothing like that ever happens here. Our rules of engagement are different. There we couldn't fire unless we were fired on, and we had to get permission first. Here we can use deadly...
