Family Weekend and Homecoming (for all families)
October 21-23, 2016
Re:Fresh for Families of First-Year Students welcomes parents and family members back to campus to spend time with their student. Gather in the Brandt Student Center for breakfast around 9 a.m. Special programs are planned from 10 a.m. until noon while the college kids sleep in. Then, students will meet their families in the student center. From there, the time is yours to do as you want – you can head off campus to local attractions, shopping and dinner or stay on campus to find something fun to do!
