Fall is always a busy time at Elon, full of many activities to enrich the mind and nourish the spirit.
I hope you enjoyed Family Weekend Sept. 26-28. This annual Elon tradition is a wonderful opportunity to visit with your student and learn more about this special university.
On Oct. 23, Elon welcomes back historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning author David McCullough, who will deliver the Fall Convocation address in Alumni Gym. We hope you can join us for these exciting events.
Now that the new academic year has begun, there are several ways parents can stay up to date on what is happening at Elon. You can sign up for ThisWeek@Elon, our electronic newsletter, and visit E-net, our news and information Web site. You also may join our new secure social network, E2. Here, you can join parent or geographic groups and get to know other Elon parents in your area.
If you are a new parent, be sure to check out our New Parents and Around Town links on this site, which feature a parents guide, and lodging and restaurant information on campus, in Burlington and beyond.
Best regards,
Maggie Byerly
Director of Parent Programs
