Dear WP Parent,

Welcome to the William Paterson University Parents Association!  For an introduction to what it means to be a member, please join us for our first Parents Association meeting of the academic year on Tuesday, August 28, 2012 at 6:30 p.m.  The meeting will be held in College Hall, Room 311. Our agenda will include a discussion about parent participation in the September 22 Homecoming event, opportunities to volunteer at University Open Houses, and a preview of upcoming cultural programs on campus.

The first part of our agenda will include a 30-minute tour of the University's Living Jazz Archives led by Dr. David Demsey, Coordinator of Jazz Studies and Professor of Music. This fascinating exhibit contains original scores and compositions by world renowned musicians such as Thad Jones, Clark Terry, and James Williams.

I look forward to meeting you on August 28. To RSVP, please email us at parents@wpunj.edu by Friday, August 24. If you are unable to attend this meeting, but are interested in getting involved, please contact me via email or phone at 973.720.2897.
