FONDREN 412: ARRUF’S NEW HOME

Welcome to ARRUF, where innovation and collaboration transform 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. In ARRUF, depth of experience in scholarship and research facilitates new avenues of multidisciplinary and mixed methods research, international awareness, and mentoring. ARRUF's home, located in 412 Fondren Library, will host many activities, quiet conversations, and meetings, with on-line participation for members outside Houston.
