As a parent of a Drake student, you are a member of the Drake University Parents Association--and the Parents Association Board members are your representatives and resources! Staffed and supported by the Drake Office of Alumni and Parent Relations, the Parents Board serves in an advisory capacity to Drake administrators and faculty, and in an advocacy role for all Drake parents.
The Drake Parents Board also engages in a variety of activities that benefit Drake students and parents, including Parents and Family Weekend events, student bus trips to and from the Chicagoland and Twin Cities areas over academic breaks, and the Parents Handbook.
Here are your Parents Board members for 2012-2013. Are you interested in serving on the Drake Parents Board? Contact us at parents@drake.edu.
