Opportunities for Involvement

Parents of current Gettysburg College students are actively involved in a number of programs both on and off campus. The goal of parent involvement is to enhance the Gettysburg experience for students and their families and to provide opportunities for connecting parents and family members with other parents, alumni, students, staff, and faculty in the Gettysburg community. Here are some of the ways that you can directly participate in the life of Gettysburg College:

• Stay informed and engaged by attending College events that take place in or near your hometown.
• Be an ambassador for the College by hosting an event for other Gettysburg College parents, families, and/or alumni in your home or at another venue.
• Help students and alumni develop their careers by participating in one or more of the Center for Career Development programs.
• Travel domestically or internationally with Experiential Education.
• Serve as a resource for the Center for Public Service.
• Increase opportunities for all Gettysburg College students by contributing to the Parents Fund and by asking other parents to do the same.

If you are interested in being involved, need more information, or have a question, please contact Allison Singley in the Office of Alumni and Parent Relations via email (asingley@gettysburg.edu) or phone (717) 337-6520.
