Webster University's New Student Orientation is a great resource for students and parents alike. You can view the schedule of events here: http://www.webster.edu/studlife/orientation/schedule.html. There are several sessions throughout Orientation weekend (August 21-24) that are open to families, in addition to some parent-specific programs. For example, the Parent Panel on Friday, August 22, at 11am is a great opportunity to ask questions and discuss any issues with parents of students that currently attend Webster. You can also peruse the Parents page of the Orientation website: http://www.webster.edu/studlife/orientation/parents.html to get information on local hotels and on the ways we invite parents to be a part of Orientation.
Orientation RSVPs are due August 8: http://www.webster.edu/studlife/orientation/rsvp.pdf

About Me
- Webster University ResLife
- Hi! I'm Katie McComb, Assistant Director of the Webster Village Apartments at Webster University and the blog moderator. I started at Webster University in 2002 to pursue my undergraduate degree in video production. I recently completed my master's degree in communications management from Webster University as well. I just couldn't stay away! Although I myself don't have any kids in college, I do have the experience of leaving home and going off to college for the first time. I'll also be calling on the experience of my colleagues to act as guest bloggers from time to time. I hope this blog is useful to you, and please let me know if there's more we can be doing to give you the best possible experience with Housing and Residential Life at Webster University.
