Leadership Opportunities Within The Texas Tech Parents Association

Carol of Lights

Tech Parents Board of Directors

Being an officer on the Board is a great way to help plan programming for the Association. Board members collaborate with Parent & Family Relations staff and are required to meet in person as a group at least once a semester. More meetings may arise as necessary but could be handled on a teleconference or email basis. Much communication will occur via email. Those with strong organization and communication skills are encouraged to consider joining the Parents Association Board.

Event Volunteer

Being a Tech Parents volunteer is a great way to get involved and help Texas Tech students and their families. From welcoming new Texas Tech parents and family members to the university during Red Raider Orientation to helping put on campus events like Family Weekend or Sibling Weekend, there are plenty of opportunities to volunteer. Watch your monthly Parent & Family eNewsletter for posts about volunteer opportunities or email parent@ttu.edu for more information.
