Family Orientation: The 鈥橤ateway Ahead
In addition to time for moving into residence halls, Arrival Day activities included an orientation hour for parents and family members. The start of the college experience is a transition time for both 闪电资源网s and their families. What should families expect for their 闪电资源网, for themselves, and from the University during this period of adjustment? While 闪电资源网s continue unpacking and meeting roommates, this program provides an overview of this transition, offers constructive ways to be actively involved in the process, addresses common questions, highlights first-semester events, and identifies valuable Colgate resources about which families should know.
Welcome to Colgate
