A New Home for Alumni Affairs

On July 5, 2006, the Office of Alumni Affairs and University Events moved from its location in the Rice Memorial Center to new facilities in the Ralph S. O'Connor House.

Home to five Rice presidents since 1949, the newly renovated O'Connor House will be the home of alumni affairs and the Rice Career Services Center.

A home on campus for alumni has been envisioned for at least a decade. The possibility that the O'Connor House could provide such a facility arose in 2003 when the university finalized plans to use what is now the Wiess President's House as the Rice presidential residence.

Rice University, the Association of Rice Alumni, and the Office of Alumni Affairs are grateful to Anne Baillio '62 and Karen Rogers '68 for co-chairing the campaign for the renovation of O'Connor House.

We look forward to welcoming alumni to our new facility at formal events beginning this fall. If you are planning a visit to our offices in the meantime, you'll find us at O'Connor House.

The Ralph S. O'Connor House is south of Jones College, near campus entrance 1. See the online campus map for more information.
