<p>Hi all,
This is just to let you know that this year’s Student & Parent Reception will take place at The Greenwich Country Club.</p>

<p>This is always a popular event, so come early. The speakers are awesome and the free food is yummy. You can go to the NY Recruiters page and sign up for the event but you can also just show up. In the past, if you have registered there was a name tag for your student. (they have also given out t-shirts).</p>

<p>I suggest coming early to get something to eat before the presentation and speeches begin. Just an FYI, many students dress in Buisness Casual and I have seen plenty of houndstooth, and crimson & white on both students and parents.</p>

<p>I will bump this for prospective students and parents.</p>

<p>I have not been to the CT reception in a few years but it is a well attended event at a very nice Country Club. Parking is ample and the food is excellent. I was there when Dr. Wit (then UA President, current UA Chancellor) was the keynote speaker. He was an exceptional speaker and well worth hearing. Since then I have attended several receptions in NY with different speakers and they have all been very good and entertaining. The event is a must do in my opinion for any prospective student and their parents.</p>

<p>I was recently admitted to UA and I attended this event with my dad at the Greenwich CC last week. The atmosphere was great along with good food and speakers. The current student speaker was from Fairfield CT and chose Alabama with out seeing it first and now loves it which was great to hear. I really enjoyed speaking to the other local school seniors interested in Alabama at my table as well. I was also able to speak to a friendly and informative woman from the business school before leaving. I would recommend going to this reception to any future students interested in attending University of Alabama. And you get a free UA tee shirt! Roll Tide!!!</p>
