Parents Count at SDSU!
Welcome to the SDSU family! At SDSU, we value parents as partners. The better informed parents are about SDSU, the better resource and coach they can be for their students. This partnership opens the channels of communication between parents and the university and impacts programs and services, improving the quality of life for all SDSU students. The Aztec Parents Association encourages parents to become involved and stay involved while their student attends SDSU.
Furlough Day correction!
The latest issue of News for Aztec Parents, Fall 2009, listed November 25 as “Furlough Day, Campus Closed.” The campus is open except for those offices affected by state mandated furlough. Classes will be in session. Your student should follow his or her course syllabus and confer with his or her instructors should questions arise. Most Residence Halls will close at 4 pm on Wednesday, November 25, with the exception of those halls that are designated to be open during campus breaks.
If you have further questions, contact the Parents Hotline at 619-594-1653.
Major Events and Programs
Parent Orientation – July and August
Parent involvement plays a key role in the academic success of students during their college years. For this reason, SDSU sponsors a Parent Orientation that runs concurrently with New Student Orientation.
New Student and Family Convocation – Saturday, August 29, 2009
Just as commencement is a ritual marking the completion of study, convocation is a ritual that signals the beginning of a college career, and serves as the official welcome to new students and their families to the academic community.
Family Weekend – October 2 and 3, 2009
Family Weekend is a time to celebrate family, friends and SDSU! Join your student and other Aztec Parents to experience college life, Aztec football and more!
