Aggie Quick Connection November 2011 - Family Edition Message from the Office of New Student and Family Programs Howdy! November is a time of mixed emotions on campus, especially for first-year students. Many exams and papers are due before Thanksgiving, and students have a feel for their standing in their classes after mid-terms. With Thanksgiving break soon to arrive (November 24th and 25th), students are feeling both excited and anxious about their trip home. Thanksgiving is the last break students have before final exams kick into gear, so it is important to encourage them and stay active with their college life. Use the time at home for family bonding while also checking on your student’s status at A&M, both emotionally and academically. We encourage you to visit the Aggie Family web site for additional updates and helpful resources. You can visit us at http://parents.tamu.edu. Please feel free to contact the Office of New Student and Family Programs at (979) 8455826, or email us at AggieFamilies@tamu.edu if you have any questions. Thanks and Gig `Em!
