The computer science department is quite active athletically. The department fields intramural teams in basketball, volleyball, softball and soccer. There is a fee of $10- 12 for participating in intramurals; if you pay within the first couple weeks of the academic year, you will save the $2. More information on intramural sports can be found at http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~ims There are racquetball and tennis ladders, as well as groups of people who frequently go biking and jogging.
