What is the Linfield College Parents Council?

The Parents Council includes all parents of current students and Linfield alumni.  Involved members serve as liaisons to encourage two-way communication between parents and the college – and work to connect parents with other parents, alumni, students, staff and faculty in the Linfield community.



The Parents Council partners with college staff to support their students’ “Linfield experience” by providing advice and assistance with:

• parent-focused communications and events, and encouraging participation among parents in growing the Parents Fund 
• fundraising for parent-defined projects.

The Parents Council is led by the Parents Council Leadership Team.
