Queer Resource Center

The Queer Resource Center (QRC) is a meeting space with comfy chairs and beanbags and a library of queer books, including short stories, history, and fiction. The center is staffed by student volunteers trained in crisis intervention and resources available to LGBTQ+ students. Feel free to stop by and hang out with other queer students, study, get a Rice PRIDE sticker, or do a puzzle! Trainings to become a volunteer are held approximately every semester, and you can get updates on trainings through the Get Connected page!


The QRC is located in Rice Memorial Center. One door can be accessed on the right side of Sammy’s, while the other is open to the outside via the courtyard facing Coffeehouse (the Brown Garden).

Office hours for the QRC change depending on volunteer availability every semester. Here are the current hours! (If you can’t view it here, try signing in with your Rice account or use this link)
