Is anyone attending the parents portion of the orientation? I declined (trying to not be overly-involved and letting him be responsible) but I wonder if I will be missing anything important.
@QueenJackie, I had attended. I wanted to know all I could about the University and it gave such me such a good feeling witnessing how much the dean/faculty and staff care about the students. This may be one of the few opportunities you get to see experience that for yourself. 
We will be attending and are excited to do so! I understand your reasoning for maybe not attending.
i didn’t attend, you can read it from online
Thanks - no right or wrong answer on this one. We decided to hit the beach while he’s in orientation & pick him up on the way home. That way little bro gets some fun, and we can all hear about orientation on the ride home.
We’re going, but mainly because hubby and I are both alumni and just want to take in the new environment! It’s really a whole new school since 1988! LOL
I just have to say that DS went to orientation saying “Rowan is the smart choice for me so I’m not in a lot of debt” and left orientation saying “I can’t wait till fall - I’m going to love it here!!!” Orientation program did its job very well!
So glad to hear! My son goes in a couple of weeks!
@QueenJackie, I’m so happy to hear that orientation went well for him!
