History

The "Inclusion House", formally known as the "Powell house", was established in 2014.

John Powell was former president and co-owner of Powell’s Lumber and Home Center, a company started by his father, the late Frank B. Powell, and formerly located at Sixth and Rolla streets in downtown Rolla.

John Powell was an active supporter of Missouri S&T, which he attended in the 1940s when it was known as the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy. He supported S&T athletics, was an Honorary Knight of St. Patrick and was a member of the Order of the Golden Shillelagh, Missouri S&T’s donor-recognition society. Powell died Sept. 1, 2012, at age 86.

“John Powell and the entire Powell family were very involved with our campus over the years, as students, alumni and active members of the Rolla community. We are grateful that John’s legacy will live on through the renovation of the Powell residence to house this important resource to our students,”

- Dr. Cheryl B. Schrader, Chancellor of Missouri S&T 2012 – 2017
