Dear Seminole Parent:

Welcome to Parents’ Weekend at Florida State University!

We are delighted that you have come to share in the wonderful lineup of events that this weekend offers.

We invite you to immerse yourself in the Seminole environment this weekend. Florida State's historical and picturesque campus, engaging activities and close-knit community of students, faculty and staff will provide a unique and memorable experience for you and your children.

Where else could you be introduced to Florida State's rich academic life, as well as enjoy a performance by the Flying High Circus, a 5K Fun Run/Walk, a tailgate buffet and, of course, the home football game versus Boston College — all in a single, fun-filled weekend?

As you explore our campus and meet members of our community, we hope that you will see how we live our traditional values as we celebrate and look toward the future. Your Seminole student will always feel welcome at Florida State University — and this weekend, in particular, we want you to feel the same.

So have a great time! Make yourself at home — and what’s even more important, make memories that you and your Seminole student will cherish always.

Yours truly,
Eric J. Barron
