An advisory group representing twelve Wheaton College families is identified annually to assist in administering the Parents Program, and its members function as liaisons between Wheaton parents and the administration. The Council meets three times each school year to hear reports on college life, discuss parent concerns, and to evaluate ways for the College to communicate with all parents. The Council also assists with hospitality functions during Parents Orientation and Family Weekend and supports the Parents in Prayer program.
Members normally serve for the duration of their students' enrollment.
The Council recommends new members to the President through the Parents Program Coordinator . If you have questions about the Parents Program or concerns you would like to share, please contact the Parents Program Coordinator or any Council member. A complete Parents Council list with contact information is available in the Parents Handbook mailed each summer.
