[quote=Anonymous]My DC is starting at W&M this fall. I have been surprised at the amount of snail mail and email that comes to us as parents, the number of programs they offer for parents at orientation, opportunities to be involved, etc. Is this common nowadays? Is it just more sophisticated fundraising? I remember my parents just dropping me off at college back in the day and being totally uninvolved except for writing the tuition checks. After being involved in my kid's high school, I sort of think college needs to be his thing, and it seems weird that we would be active when we are not alums, although I can imagine wanting to be supportive if he is happy there. Curious to hear the level of involvement of other parent son their kids' colleges if they are not alums.[/quote]
