Rose House Office
The hub of all things in the House, the House Office is your first stop for assistance. Much more than a place to pick up your mail and send out-going letters, the House Office is where you can find out about what events are happening in the House and how to sign up. The House Office Assistants are also available to help with lock-outs and provide resources for facilities issues that might arise.
