Kettering University Parents' Association
- All parents of currently-enrolled undergraduate Kettering University students are members of the Kettering University Parents’ Association. If you’d like to volunteer to help, please contact the Parents Association President. Parent volunteers are an important part of Family Day and Orientation.
- The Parents Association meetings coincide with the August and November Family Days. These meetings are used to introduce the association officers, and new parents to the association and its functions.
- The elected association officers include a President, A & B-section Vice Presidents, Secretary and Treasurer. These officers form the Parents Advisory Board (PAB) along with selected volunteers and committee heads and are responsible for organizing all association activities including Family Day, Orientation, Homecoming and other events as requested. The Advisory Board usually meets four times a year.
