General
Louise Moore graduated from Rice Institute in 1922. Moore was a member of the Tattler's Club and a member of the advisory committee on the editorial staff for the Owl Calendar. She was also a Rice representative at a students' volunteer conference, the vice president of her sophomore class, an officer of Student Council, and a sophomore maid at the May Fete. As a junior she served on the refreshment committee for the prom. During her education she spent time in New York studying music, specifically voice culture, with Frank LaForge, and a bridge-musical-tea was hosted in her honor. She enjoyed collecting humorous quotes or poems from The Thresher as well as Rice dance- and sport-related ephemera in her scrapbook.
