Dear Marquette Parents and Family Members,

Congratulations on your student’s admission to Marquette University! You should feel extremely proud and we thank you for all of the support you have given to your student thus far.

The transition to college can evoke a lot of different emotions for family members that can be difficult to express. We would like to give you an opportunity to communicate your thoughts by writing your student a letter that he or she will receive during Orientation week in August. As you know, the first week of college can be a stressful time for students. Your letter will provide encouragement to your student while he or she is becoming acclimated to life at Marquette.

Please use the provided stationery, and include your student’s name, residence hall, and room number on an envelope. You can mail your sealed letter, by Friday, August 10, 2012, to the following address:

Office of Student Development
Alumni Memorial Union, 329
P.O. Box 1881
Milwaukee, WI 53201

The Orientation Planning Team will mail your letter so that your student will receive it by the end of Orientation Week in late August.

Thank you for being such an influential part of your student’s life. Welcome to the Marquette Family!

Sincerely,

The 2012 Orientation Planning Team
