Students do not have to take all personal belongings home during the Christmas break. Keep in mind, the residence halls will be inaccessible during the break, so it is important that students take what they will need. Special accommodations can be made through the housing office for students who need temporary housing during Spring Break. During Parents Weekend you have the opportunity to attend the annual FSU Parents Association meeting. This association provides a link between the University and students' families.
Members are deeply interested in the quality of education their sons and daughters receive.
As it is important that all University constituents' concerns are understood, this organization provides the Dean of Students Department and the University with parent input. The Parents Association collects dues to support projects such as campus safety initiatives and a victim emergency fund. Each hall has a call box at the front door. From this box, parents and other guests can dial the student's phone number to ask the student to come down to open the door. If the guest does not have the resident's number, he or she can call the front desk receptionist number, which is posted at the call box.
