As a parent of an incoming freshmen, I’d love to connect with other parents of Lafayette students, both incoming and existing. At D14’s school, a parent started a FB page the summer before our kids started and the site, which now has about 200 parents, has been a great resource for all parents. Does one exist already for Lafayette parents? Did a FB search and couldn’t find one. If not, anyone interested in joining if I start one? On the other site we’ve shared diverse info such as doctors in the area, where to eat and stay when visiting, where to buy cupcakes for our student’s birthday and how to handle sticky administrative issues - so all types of issues. Reply or PM if there is either already a site or interest in starting one. Thanks!
As far as I know, there isn’t one. Honestly, I don’t think I ever looked.
I’m the parent of a current senior at Lafayette. If you have any questions I can help you with feel free to ask (either here or you can PM me). BTW she had an amazing four years there! Can’t believe she will be graduating in a couple of weeks…
Agreed, @happy1. I think this forum could be that resource. The Parents Forum is a more general form of what you described and this is Lafayette specific.
Congrats to your daughter, @happy1!! My son is a sophomore and it feels like it goes so quickly.
@btlsmum Thanks. Agreed, the four years fly by. She is a jumble of mixed emotions now…sad to be leaving Lafayette but excited about where she is headed. It has been a wonderful four years for my D --I hope everyone here also has a great experience at the college.
