The college experience, scored
The original Rice Purity Test was born on a college campus, and this version goes back to those roots with a modern twist. Instead of covering all of life, the College Purity Test focuses on what happens between orientation week and graduation.
Who should take it
Incoming freshmen can take it to see what's ahead, current students can compare with roommates, and graduates can take a nostalgic trip back to campus.
Orientation-week tip
Running an icebreaker? Have everyone take the test privately and share only their score range, not individual answers. It gets people talking without putting anyone on the spot.
