College enrollment represents a significant transition for many students and their family members. What should families expect for their student, for themselves, and from the University during this adjustment period? While students spend an hour unpacking and getting to know their roommates, we will discuss with family members these adjustments, the resources the University makes available, and how family members can partner with Colgate in supporting their students.
