Many parents find that when
they learn about Ann Arbor and the University, they feel more comfortable
sending their son or daughter off to this unfamiliar place.
Parents can stay connected to their student's world by keeping up-to-date on what's happening in Ann Arbor. Visiting Ann Arbor during Parents Weekend is the perfect time to get a taste of your student's new life. Even if you can't visit campus during Parents Weekend, students usually welcome a visit from their parents at least once a year (if it's planned in advance), especially if it means going to a nice restaurant for dinner.
For
those of you that may be unable to visit, keep up-to-date on Ann
Arbor and campus events through online news sources. Online versions
of the Michigan
Daily (student newspaper),
the University
Record (faculty and staff newspaper),
Michigan
Today (news magazine published three times per year), and the
Ann
Arbor News (local newspaper) are
available.
