I am a parent of an incoming Freshman. I would love to hear thoughts on the University purchased care packages. Are they good and do most students get all of them? The letter we received says all students get a welcome package which I think is great and the others can be purchased. I was planning on assembling and sending them myself throughout the year but want to get a feel for what is typical. Happy to hear from students and parents alike. Thanks!
We’re going to get one of the smaller packages, but mostly we will send boxes of stuff we KNOW she likes. Her favorite things aren’t likely to be included in these, such as dried mango strips and stuff like that, so the personal touch of a home-packed care package is always better.
