A Weekend to Remember: Families Weekend 2026

Families Weekend 2026 was one for the books! Thank you to the parents, families and friends who spent October 2-4 on campus, sharing in the experiences and community that make Rice special. From discovering something new in a faculty lecture to gathering at the Family Tailgate and cheering on the Owls at the football game, the weekend gave families plenty of ways to connect with Rice and each other. We hope you left campus with great memories, new connections and an even greater appreciation for your Owl and the Rice community.
