Centre Family Weekend Sept. 27-28
RELEASED: Sept. 19, 2002
DANVILLE, KY—Centre students always have a wide range of activities to choose from on campus each weekend. Now Mom, Dad and maybe Little Sis will get to join the fun.
The College will host Centre Family Weekend, Sept. 27-28.
On Friday, Sept. 27, parents have the opportunity to meet with Centre administration, faculty and their student's academic advisor. Family members are also encouraged to attend classes throughout the day.
The Aegon Gallery in the Jones Visual Arts Center will show the paintings of Thuan Vu, Centre Class of 1995.
There will be three sporting events to choose from in the afternoon before dinner at Centre's Cowan Dining Commons.
President John Roush and his wife, Susie, will host a reception at their home, and the night concludes with comedian Cary Long performing at the Combs Student Activities Center.
There will be even more activities on Saturday. Tours of the campus, a concert, a picnic lunch and the football game against Washington & Lee are just some of the events taking place.
An event called "Academic Samplers" will be held that morning. These are mini-versions of classroom lectures that offer an excellent opportunity to hear informative and entertaining lectures by Centre professors.
There will be dinners at two locations that evening.
The grand finale will be "An American Celebration" featuring Daniel Rodriguez, New York's singing policeman, held at Centre's Norton Center for the Arts. To order tickets, call the Norton Center box office at 1-877-HIT-SHOW or (859) 236-4692.
