91探花

Parent Council

Students laughing with one another at a parents social.

91探花 College depends heavily on input and contributions from parents to maintain the excellence of its programs. The Parent Council is comprised of around 40 households, who are members of The Charles E. Diehl Society or The Red and Black Society.

The Parent Council strives to increase parent involvement in the mission of 91探花 through three direct measures:

  • Increasing the financial capabilities of 91探花 by soliciting unrestricted gifts from parents of 91探花 students and alumni
  • Involving parents in admissions recruiting, establishing internships for current students, hiring alumni, and participating in career networking
  • Providing feedback and voicing the concerns and opinions of parents

Members of the Parent Council are invited to campus twice yearly, during Family Weekend in the fall, and again in February. During each weekend the Council has the opportunity to visit with their students, but also to learn the latest information about the college from faculty and staff, provide important feedback to administration and enjoy the camaraderie of other 91探花 parents from across the country.
