Interact with Fellow Charger Parents and Family Members
We have created a closed group on Facebook to connect parents and family members of incoming and current students. This is a great opportunity for parents and family members to interact, talk about the experiences of their students, and see what is happening on campus.
The group also includes various staff members from across campus who can serve as a resource and answer questions.
