As its name implies, the Office
of University Relations seeks to develop and maintain
ties between Wesleyan and its alumni, parents, and friends, as well as the local Middletown community and the general public. The office promotes local Wesleyan clubs across the country that enlist alumni/ae and parent volunteers in activities including admission recruiting, fund-raising, faculty seminars, social events, service projects, and career networking. The University Relations office also hosts some of the major campus weekends, including Homecoming/Family Weekend, Volunteer Weekend, and Reunion & Commencement Weekend. The University Relations office is also responsible for fund raising activities, including capital and annual fund campaigns. The Class of 2002 set a record of 90 percent participation in the annual fund.
The University Relations office seeks student help at
various times throughout the year, particularly during
the major campus weekends and when children of alumni/ae
visit the campus for the Sons & Daughters Program.
The University Relations Office is helped greatly in
these efforts by the Red & Black Society, a student
group that undertakes volunteer activities. Students are
also employed in the University Relations Office through
the work-study program and as interns during the regular
academic year. At the end of the year, the office hires a
student work force to help prepare for and staff Reunion
& Commencement Weekend, which brings more than 7,000
alumni/ae, parents, and family members back to campus.
Locations: The "big white box" at 318 High
Street houses the office of the vice president of
university relations; it is also the location for the
regional programs that work with local alumni/ae and
parents across the country. The office also deals with
alumni/ae classes and their annual giving. At 330 High
Street (the "little house down the driveway,"
also called the "alumni office") is the Office
of Alumni Relations. The office coordinates events on and
off campus and works with alumni/ae and parent volunteers
on developing events and on planning reunions.

The Office of Parent Programs, part of the Office of University Relations, serves as a liaison between parents and the University to encourage two-way communication and assists parents in becoming involved in Wesleyan organizations of alumni and parents.
The staff members of Parent Programs provide support to the Wesleyan Parents Council, which offers parents the opportunity to become involved in helping to plan Homecoming/Family Weekend, Reunion & Commencement, and other events for parents. The council also works to improve the University’s communications with parents through PARENTLINE, a newsletter by and for parents; assists students in career plans through the Career Resources Center; works with the alumni clubs on local events; helps the Admission Office by calling parents of newly admitted students; and assists with the Parents Fund.
Meetings are held during Homecoming/Family Weekend in
the fall and on a weekend in the spring.
For more information, contact Meg W. Zocco, director of parent programs, (860) 685-2799 or parents@wesleyan.edu.
