Your monthly connection to High Point University
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 (click here to see the story from Career and Professional Development 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 – 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 (click here or see story below on graduate Hannah Bailey, a Fulbright Scholar).
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,
Nido R. Qubein
President
