Learn from the experiences of our faculty, staff, students and other parents. At UB, we view the relationship between students, parents and the University as a three-way partnership. As partners, we seek to create a positive alliance that can provide students with the optimal support system. Hopefully, your student's path from teenager to adult will lead to expanded levels of maturity, responsibility and independence. Keep in mind, however, that the growth process is not always smooth.
Students typically experience ranges of emotional highs and lows.
While UB's physical plant makes the campus a very pleasant environment in which to study, learn and teach, the cornerstone of the University is people - students, faculty and staff. It is the people who make UB a true community. Full emersion in campus life will help make your student's years at the University successful and rewarding. While your student may not often tell you, encouragement and support from you are essential.
