This weekend hundreds of first-year Cornell students shared their experience on the Hill with parents, siblings and even grandparents over First-Year Family Weekend.
As published in the First Year Family Weekend Schedule of Events, the three-day event was designed to give “Cornell families the opportunity to gain insight into how to support their students as they pursue their Cornell degrees. This is a time to walk in [the] students’ shoes and explore all that the campus and local community have to offer. First-Year Family Weekend showcases the breadth and depth of activities to which [the] student is exposed.”
