Building the Parent Community
Members of the Parents Advisory Council advise staff on communication with other Carleton parents about upcoming events and issues.
The Parents Advisory Council advises the College on helping parents feel connected to campus and to one another, through communication channels such as webinars and the parent newsletter, and events such as Summer Send-Offs and Family Weekend.

It features updates from campus, content about students and faculty, opportunities for students such as internships or study abroad programs, reminders about the support available for students, and important deadlines.
