The ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøparent leadership team is made up of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøParent Advisory Board members and leaders of the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøParents Association. These two groups work with the Office of Parent and Family Engagement to strengthen the relationship between the university and the parents of undergraduate students.
The ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøParent Advisory Board
The ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø Parent Advisory Board (PAB) works to support the university’s Christian mission to nurture persons in their development of intellect, creativity, faith and personhood. Board members have a first-hand understanding of the impact the university has on students and their families. Members seek to strengthen the relationship between the university and the parents of current undergraduate students; encourage relationships within the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøfamily; positively represent the university to others; and financially support the university.
ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøParents Association Leaders
The ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøParents Association (SPA) is made up of dedicated parents who, while affirming the mission of ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø, support university goals; support the educational and developmental success of students; and seek to inform, support, and connect ºÚÁϳԹÏÍøparents and families. This group is led by association officers and state chapter chairs. Officers and state chapter chairs serve for a minimum of one year with the possibility of being asked to serve additional years.
