Dear Parent,

I am thrilled your student is considering becoming a part of the Lindsey Wilson College family. Here at LWC, we take our mission of, "every student, every day," very seriously and are dedicated to ensuring your student will receive the utmost personal attention inside and outside of the classroom. Our faculty and staff not only work towards but enjoy fostering your student's intellectual, social, spiritual and personal growth. Although rigorous course work is certainly in order for your student at Lindsey Wilson College, so are faculty assisted community service projects, nail biting athletic games against rival teams, cultural events such as hearing Wendell Berry discuss his published works or even simply having a cup of coffee with one of our esteemed faculty members to talk about matters beyond the textbook.

Getting to know your sons and daughters on a personal level is one of my greatest honors. Additionally, I hope that you will become an involved parent and I will have the ability of getting to know you on a personal level as well. There are a multitude of ways for you to become involved. We welcome parents and families at any and all admissions-related events such as Open House events, personal campus visits, Begley Scholars Day, EDGE days and Opening Weekend. The Admissions Office recognizes the importance of parent involvement and special parent sessions dedicated to matters of financial aid, campus safety and academic transitioning are offered during admissions events. Beyond admissions-related events, I encourage you to periodically check our calendar for choral performances, lectures, concerts, art exhibits, recitals and sporting events. This is your campus as much as it is your student's campus and you are welcome to any and all campus activities.

If your student becomes a part of the Lindsey Wilson College family, there will be a weekend dedicated especially for you - Family Weekend. Our annual Family Weekend is designed to engross you in life at Lindsey and provide opportunities to experience what makes this college so great. It is sure to be a treat for both you and your student. It excites me to watch a grandparent's eyes light up when they enter our beautiful chapel or to overhear a parent tell a faculty member how much he or she has influenced their child to become a better writer, reader or thinker.

It is my hope that you and your student will both become a part of this campus, this college and this family at Lindsey Wilson. I look forward to shaking your hand at commencement and presenting your student with that hard-earned diploma you have always dreamed of him or her achieving.

I wish you the best of luck in the college search process and hope that your search will end at Lindsey Wilson College.

 Sincerely,

William T. Luckey Jr. , President
