FAMILY WEEKEND 2012

Friday, October 5
&

Saturday, October 6

We will again combine Homecoming and Family Weekend as this is a great opportunity to take advantage of campus activities while you spend time with your students.

Families are invited to visit their students and experience the campus in full swing when the golden aspen trees are at their best.

Our schedule is typically informal as we have found our students want time with you to catch up on family news and to introduce you to their friends.  However, we are bringing back the "Family Weekend Hike" on Saturday, and many Faculty have offered "Open Classrooms" for you to visit on Friday as well. Click here for a list of open classrooms.

 **Family Weekend Lodging: We are fortunate to have a limited number of rooms available in Escalante Hall (on campus) for Homecoming/Family Weekend.  Each room has two twin beds and a shared bathroom facility down the hall.  The total cost for both Friday and Saturday nights is $76, including taxes and bedding.  Due to the limited number of rooms, reservations are only being accepted for this two-night package: no single night reservations are available.  Online Registration will be live in early September, 2011.

Cancelations for a full refund must be received by 4:00 pm on Monday, October 1, 2012.
