Friends University: For Parents

[ CURRENT STUDENTS ]

Keeping Parents in the Loop

Each week, Dr. Carole Obermeyer, Friends University's vice president of Student Affairs, writes a newsletter directed toward students' parents. The newsletters keep parents in the know about campus events, activities and student life. Dr. Obermeyer releases the newsletters each Friday, so check back with us each week!
