Family Housing Staff strive to provide opportunities for our students to learn, relax and enjoy the community.
From play groups and cooking groups, to cookouts and yard sales you never know what the hard working Resident Managers will come up with next. In fact, this year, the American Holiday Celebrations Party received a regional award for its educational components. Don't be surprised if you come home one day and see a petting zoo and pony rides! But our programs are not all fun and games.
Being the spouse of a Tech student comes with its own unique challenges. By working with other departments on campus including the counseling center, and Office of International Education (OIE) we are able to provide a weekly spouse support group and other programs. Adjusting to having a spouse in college can be hard enough, imagine if you are from a different country. Programs on American Holiday Traditions, American Culture and Communicating in the States help our International community.
So, from petting zoos and pony rides to programs designed to support families, you can count on family housing to help you and your family get used to Tech.
