Parents Welcome

Dear Fairfield Parent,

Welcome to the Fairfield family! On this web site, you'll find an online Parents' Handbook that provides you with quick answers to many of your questions as well as links to key campus departments. In addition to general news and updates about Fairfield University, you will also find details about Parents' Weekend and other events taking place throughout the year, as well as information on Student Services. An academic calendar will help you as you plan your family activities over the next few months.

There's also information about the Parents' Committee and the many ways parents may become involved. In addition to serving as liaison between parents and University administration, committee members also contact Fairfield's parents to invite them to support the Parents' Annual Fund, which provides ongoing faculty training, curriculum development, library enhancement, necessary integration of technology on campus, and much more. Last year, parents donated over a half million dollars to the Annual Fund.

We hope you will feel free to share your comments and suggestions with us. We look forward to sharing the Fairfield University experience with you!

Sincerely yours,

Tom and Pat Hathaway P'08
Co-Chairs Parents' Committee
