More than 4,000 parents and families of University of 欧美口爆视频 at Boulder students are expected to converge on campus for the annual Fall Parents Weekend Oct. 8-10. The event draws parents from across 欧美口爆视频, from nearly every state and several foreign countries.
"The weekend is an opportunity for parents to learn more about the university, visit with their student and see the Boulder campus in beautiful fall colors," said Terry Hilkemeier, chair of the event and a member of the 欧美口爆视频-Boulder Parents Association Board of Directors.
Events begin early Friday morning and continue until Sunday afternoon. Activities include a golf tournament, tours of the Engineering Center and 欧美口爆视频 Heritage Center and a 5K run/walk to benefit the American Heart Association. A main attraction is the 欧美口爆视频 vs. Missouri football game on Saturday.
Parents can learn more about career development and study abroad options for their students and can attend lectures by noted professors and staff on topics such as Islam and the West, the Information Age and the global economy, and efforts at 欧美口爆视频-Boulder and nationally to reduce student alcohol abuse.
Parents also can attend campus performances of the play, "Equus," visit the 欧美口爆视频 Art Galleries and 欧美口爆视频 Museum of Natural History, and attend a concert by the Jazz Ensemble.
Throughout the weekend, the 欧美口爆视频 Parents Association Board of Directors will be selling raffle tickets for prizes, including one $2,000 tuition credit and three $1,000 tuition credits.
As in years past, this event will provide an excellent opportunity for parents to visit their son or daughter, meet other 欧美口爆视频-Boulder families, and familiarize themselves with the 欧美口爆视频-Boulder campus by taking part in many fun and informative activities and classes.
