Purpose & Mission of the Parents Council
The President’s Office invites a select group of parents, representing each class and various geographic regions of the country to serve as advisors to the College. This group, known as the Parents Council, offers input concerning issues and ideas from a parent’s perspective, receives in depth information about specific college directions and issues, participates in various development initiatives, and helps with student recruitment.
