Ithaca College

Every Fall, Ithaca College crafts events especially for families and supporters of our students to learn more about IC, explore college through your eyes, and to join us in celebrating your accomplishments. While we typically invite families to join us on campus for a weekend in the fall, due to the implications of a remote semester, we are hosting a virtual, week-long program between Friday, November 6th until Friday, November 13th. We invite and encourage you and your loved ones to attend a variety of engaging social and informational events during Family Week 2020.

A detailed schedule is published on the Family Week 2020 website , but a few highlights from the Family Week lineup include:

• Meditation and Fitness Classes
• Student Panels
• Religious & Spiritual Life Services
• Opportunities to connect with the President and Senior Leadership Team
• First-Gen Celebration, first-gen alumni panel, and FAFSA for First-gen events
• One World Concert, hosted by the Ithaca College International Club
• Performances from School of Music faculty
• Small, virtual “meet and eats” with families and supporters
• Student-athlete panel and session sharing an update on intercollegiate athletics from Susan Bassett

. . . and much, much more! 

Families and supporters are an integral part of our vibrant IC community and we couldn't be more excited to welcome them into your student experience, even under the unique circumstances that comes with this semester.
