Student Parent HELP Center Winter Break Hours
The Student Parent HELP Center will be closed starting on Friday, December 20th at noon and will reopen Monday, January 13th at 9am. During this time, we will not be checking voicemail or email. The lounge and computer lab will be accessible for our registered undergraduate student parents during the days that the University is open. (The University is closed December 23-25, and January 1.) Undergraduate students should check their email for information on how to access the computer lab and lounge during winter break. Susan Warfield will return on January 9th and will be available to assist students at that time. Once the center reopens on January 13th, we will reply to voicemails and emails as soon as we can. Thanks and have a great winter break!
