Houston Baptist University
Educational Partnership
As part of the Memorial Hermann family, University Place partners with Houston Baptist University to provide access to cultural and recreational services. University Place residents attend lectures, audit classes, view art exhibits and enjoy selections from the campus library at HBU.
University professors and students also teach within the retirement community. Recently, two classes of English students participated in a project with the residents to compile their stories into a collection written by the students.
HBU and Memorial Hermann Healthcare System developed the Wellness Center, which sits adjacent to University Place, to promote wellness to the greater population. As University Place residents, seniors automatically receive upon their move-in a complimentary membership to the state-of-the-art fitness and health facility.
