Only on Parents ' Weekend: Each spring, parents are invited to visit Southwestern as guests of honor on Parents ' Weekend. At the Honors Assembly, they have the opportunity to see outstanding students recognized for their accomplishments. At an informal coffee with the faculty, parents are able to meet professors. And at Casino Night, Southwestern Simoleons are the medium of exchange as participants try their hands at games of chance.

Meetings fill busy schedules Who plans the calendar for the year? Who deals with matters from drop dates to discipline cases? Who recommends, rearranges, resolves and repeals? It ' s that omnipresent entity known as The Committee that settles such mat- ters for us. The jumble of names and the alphabet soup of abbreviations rep- resent the people who give their time and effort to make the decision that keep the University running- Faculty, students and administrators take on the task of decision-making and plan- ning for the community as a v hole Sometimes the committees themselves are invisible --but things wouldn ' t get done without them.
