Letter from the Committee
Dear Parents,
As a committee, we’ve spent several months creating this publication with your needs
in mind. We’ve collaborated with campus services, organizations, faculty, and current
students to provide you with the most current and relevant information about UCSB.
We truly hope you have found many answers to your questions in these pages. In closing,
our committee would like to extend some valuable tips for sustaining positive relationships
with your students during this transition period and throughout their career here
at UCSB. Some are serious, others humorous, but each can make a significant impact
on your students as they begin growing in the UCSB community.
We wish you the best for the upcoming year
Sincerely,
Amy Lee, Committee Chair
Jason Awe, Robert Mankin, Mallory Mizera, Christina Regalado and Mallarie Stevens
