Welcome to Disney StudiO-Week!

Sid Richardson College O-Week 2025

Mission Statement

At Disney StudiO-Week, we believe that every New Student is the main character of their own adventure. Our mission is to create a magical, welcoming environment where you can forge lifelong friendships, embrace new challenges, and discover the endless possibilities that Rice has to offer.

Whether you’re setting off on a daring quest, stepping into a whole new world, or finding your very own circle of trust, this week is all about discovering the magic of our enchanted tower that makes Sid feel like home.

Just like every Disney journey, there will be challenges, laughter, and unforgettable moments—but you won’t be facing them alone. You’ll have your Advisors here to support you and provide a space for you to grow, explore, and embark on your own adventures around campus and beyond just like the wise mentors Disney tales. So step into your own fairy tale, because at Disney StudiO-Week, the magic starts with you! ✨🌟
