Aztec Parents

Dear Future Aztec Parent:

As the parents of a San Diego State University student, we can personally tell you how the university has embraced us, as parents, to be partners in our daughter’s education. We stay connected through our involvement with the Aztec Parents Association, a dynamic volunteer organization dedicated to keeping parents involved and supporting programs and services for SDSU students.

As parents, we walk a fine line balancing our love and concern, while trying not to intrude on the developmental process of our sons and daughters “leaving the nest” and going off to college. Membership in the Aztec Parents Association is a great way to achieve that balance.

SDSU is unique in that it recognizes that parent involvement plays a key role in the success of our students. Membership in the Aztec Parents Association will make it easy and convenient for you to stay connected and keep in touch with what’s going on at the university. You will be informed about university issues and new opportunities for your student. You will also be invited to exciting activities and events. And through the years, whenever you have a questions or concern, you will have a knowledgeable, personal contact on campus who will be there for you.

By attending Parent Orientation this summer, you will automatically become a member of the Aztec Parents Association. We encourage you to join us in promoting student success at SDSU!

Sincerely,

Rick and Esther Wood
Parents of Alexis, Class of 2010
Aztec Parents Advisory Board Members

Best of all, parents attending orientation automatically become members of the Aztec Parents Association one fee covers both!
