From Your Nest to Ours
“
Being a parent of a USI freshman, I found myself riddled with excitement and anxiety. Joining the USI Parents & Families Association has been a wonderful experience and a great resource. The Association brings parents together to answer their questions, calm their anxieties and make lasting friendships. I find it extremely helpful that the Association keeps me informed about events on campus. I highly recommend parents of USI freshmen join this amazing Association!” – Katrinka Stevers, USI parent

As your student leaves your nest to join ours, rest assured that USI is committed to parents and families as valued partners in your student’s educational process. You play a critical role in your student’s success. Students regularly report that the most significant support and encouragement they receive comes from their families, and parental involvement positively influences a student’s likelihood of graduating.
We hope to see you soon, Lauren Smith ’13 Advisor, USI Parents & Families Association
