Dear Parents, Each month we bring you this Parent Perspective Newsletter for two simple reasons: to inform and inspire. Inform – There are hundreds of services, programs, and resources available to your student – all contributing to successful outcomes (see the story below from Career and Internship Services with the 6 Tips to Maximize Your Student’s Internship Experience). Each month we’ll provide relevant content and insights from our talented HPU faculty and staff. As your partner, we understand that students who are surrounded by an informed support network are poised to thrive. Inspire – President Qubein has said, “If you want to be great, walk hand in hand with great people.” At High Point University, our culture is built on values – the value of generosity, service, hard-work, gratitude, and more. Here students are surrounded by inspiring men and women – faculty, staff, and fellow classmates. So each month, we highlight the wonderful work of the HPU family (see the story below about how an English class changed one student’s perspective about community service). We enthusiastically celebrate the academic accomplishments, thoughtful contributions, and acts of kindness that our faculty, staff, and students create every day – it’s part of what makes High Point University so special. We hope the monthly Parent Perspective serves as a valuable and informative tool. Before you arrive in August check out our Welcome Week website for all of the move-in details. You can also keep in touch on a daily basis by following us on our Parents and Families Facebook page. Thank you for your continued advocacy and support, Roger Clodfelter |
