Welcome to ARRUF, where innovation and collaboration transform traditional retirement.
Here, friends and colleagues join in discussions, workshops, and research projects to rethink the role of retired faculty and invent new forms of participation.
Depth of experience in scholarship and research facilitate new avenues of multidisciplinary and mixed methods research, international awareness, and mentoring. Our new ARRUF home, opening in April 2018, will host many activities, quiet conversations, and meetings, with on-line participation for members outside Houston.
