A LETTER FROM

The Office of New Student and Family Programs

Hello Parent and Family Members,

On behalf of the New Student and Family Programs (NSFP) staff and the Northwestern University community, I’d

like to wish you a happy new year! At his point in time, your student(s) are well into the winter quarter and may

be feeling a little overwhelmed by their workload and the snow that has finally arrived. (However, if you are on

the East coast, we recognize that it could be much worse- and we hope you are all coping!!!)

This issue of the Parent & Family Quarterly provides a lot of information about various campus offices and re-

sources that are available to assist your student(s) in their journey, as well as some highlights from our busy fall

quarter. If you are anything like my mom, you will pass some of this information onto your student- who may

not even be aware of some of these opportunities.

On March 6, I will celebrate my one-year anniversary as Director of NSFP. In the time I have been at Northwest-

ern, I have come to fully appreciate the “unique” culture of this amazing world-class University, and the brilliant

and talented people that make up the student body. Each day, I am not only impressed by the intelligence of our

students, but by their maturity, professionalism, sense of humor, and their sincere interest in learning - not just

what interests them, but what could interest them.

As the mother of two small children, I often worry that I am not being the best parent for my children. Quite fre-

quently, I ask my student leaders how they turned out so well. I quiz them about what their parents or family

members did to help create such remarkable individuals. Some of them can give me a laundry list and some can-

not pinpoint it – however, what is consistent is the amount of love and support you have provided them

throughout their lifetime to help them get to the level they are at now. This I know is a key factor in their success

and will continue to be as they grow, develop and prepare for life beyond Evanston.

Please know, that as Student Affairs administrators who work with your students on a daily basis, we are here to

provide support (and challenge) to enrich their education and help them develop into responsibly independent

world citizens. In addition, we are here to support you. If you ever have questions, concerns, or are just not sure

where to go for assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the Office of New Student and Family Programs and

we would be more than happy to help in any way.

Please enjoy the latest edition of the Parent and Family

Quarterly, and we look forward to hearing from you

and seeing you the next time you are on campus.

Best Regards & Go ‘Cats!,

Patti Hilkert

Director of New Student and Family Programs

Do you remember those students dressed in brightly colored t-shirts during Wildcat Welcome? They helped you move into the

residence halls, communicated with your student throughout the summer and spent hours helping him/her transition to North-

western.

That was a Peer Adviser; they are the student leaders who support new students through their transition to Northwestern and

create a welcoming atmosphere for both new students and family members.

If your student is interested in helping shape the experience for the Class of 2017 and new transfer students, encourage them to

apply online between February 4-18, 2013. Undergraduate students from all classes, schools, and backgrounds are encouraged to

apply.

Here’s what some 2012 Peer Advisors had to say about their experience:

“The most rewarding experience I have had at Northwestern so far!” -2012 Peer Adviser

“The group of 200 Peer Advisers is “a group of people that truly care.” -2012 Peer Adviser

“I could not love Northwestern any more than after serving as a PA.” -2012 Peer Adviser

Students can apply online February 4-18, 2013 at northwestern.edu/orientation

Plans are already under way for what will be the Third Annual International Parent and

Family Orientation, to be held in Fall 2013. 2012 marked the second time the International Office

presented this program, which was developed in response to increasing interest from parents of

incoming international undergraduates accompanying their students on their move to Evanston.

The 2012 program, held over five days preceding Wildcat Welcome, was presented in conjunc-

tion with the annual International Undergraduate Student Orientation, now in its fifth year. This

program is specifically tailored to the unique experience of matriculating international students

and “third culture kids” (students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents but grew up

overseas).

The International Office, along with the invaluable and tireless efforts of our International

Peer Advisers who are selected and trained in the winter and spring, guide international students

and their families through their transition to student life at Northwestern. Since many parents

are unable to stay throughout Wildcat Welcome, this program provides valuable resources and

insights that will help them support their newly minted Wildcats throughout their careers at

Northwestern.

Over 100 parents and siblings of international undergraduates attended this event in

2012, participating in a variety of activities throughout the five day program, including campus

tours, meals in the dining hall, shopping trips coordinated jointly by the International Office and

NU Shuttle Service, an NU Men’s Varsity Soccer game, and welcome barbeque. Additionally, a

program specifically for parents was presented at Norris University Center on September 17,

2012, which included information on academic advising, resources and opportunities at NU, and

other information pertinent to our internationally residing parents.

The International Office expects to see a significant increase in participation as this

program continues to grow and develop and are excited to have the opportunity to further en-

rich the experience of all members of the Wildcat family.

NU Athletics

The Wildcats finished the regular season with

11 points (3-1-2), securing a share of the 2012

Big Ten Title alongside co-champion Penn

State (3-1-2, 11 points).

Five-time National Coach of the Year Kelly Amonte-Hiller has begun her 12th season at the

helm of Northwestern Lacrosse. The top-ranked team looked every bit like the defending

NCAA champions in its 2013 season-opener, cruising past No. 14 Massachusetts, 16-4 at the

University of Southern California in Los Angeles. Visit the Women’s Lacrosse website to find

more stories and the 2013 season schedule.

Last spring, the Wildcats finished the season with a 21-2 record and

defeated Syracuse, 8-6, in the 2012 national title game at Stony Brook University on Long

Island.

Gator Bowl. The ‘Cats rode an NU-bowl-record four interceptions to a 34-20 victory over

Mississippi State, and a 10-win season. NU's 10-3 record marks the first double-digit win season

since the 1995 Big Ten Championship team, of which current head coach Pat Fitzgerald was a

member. The Gator Bowl victory also gives Fitzgerald his 50th win as NU's head coach, making

him Northwestern's all-time leader in victories. The game marked NU's 11th all-time bowl ap-

pearance, and fifth straight bowl game.

A Letter from the Study Abroad Office

Dear Northwestern Parents,

The beginning of a new year iswhen one is inclined to reflect on the past and build anticipation for the future. The past year has certainly given the Study Abroad office much to reflect upon:

A new and more user-friendly study abroad website: (www.northwestern.edu/studyabroad/);

Our move one block north (629 Colfax Street) to a completely refurbished building with private offices for advisers;

A new on-line study abroad application that’s more accessible to students and their advisers; and

A new position: Associate Director for International Safety and Security, filled by Julie Friend, a national leader in the field.

Every year, about 33% of each graduating class studies abroad for credit and behind those numbers stands a whole team of Northwestern educators and administrators who make it possible. Our staff collaborates closely with faculty and colleagues in a wide spectrum of offices on campus, ranging from Student Affairs, Financial Aid, the Registrar, and Fellowships, to the Office of International Program Development and the Buffett Center for International and Comparative Studies and The Center for Global Engagement.

However, there would be no study abroad if it were not also for Northwestern parents and family support. We’re indebted to every parent whose daughter or son has either studied abroad, is currently studying abroad, is in the process of applying for permission to study abroad, or who has even considered study abroad. Thank you very much!

Before I close, a couple of things I’d like to share:

First, a note on our new website: Please check out the special segment for families at http://www.northwestern.edu/studyabroad/families/index.html, and please let us know if you have any suggestions for how we might improve these pages. (E.g.: Is there anything else you’d like to know about study abroad at Northwestern?) Our web pages are only as good as the feedback we get. You may contact us by email at [email protected]

Finally, we’ve put a large banner over the entrance to our new office. It reads: Explore – Engage – Discover – Lead. We take these words seriously. Simply put, Northwestern University is committed to offering all of our undergraduates more opportunities around the globe because an informed international perspective is vitally important for future leaders, regardless of their profession. So, yes, “Go Cats!”…and “Go Abroad, Cats!”

Sincerely,

Bill Anthony

Director, Study Abroad Office

It’s already a record breaking year for Northwestern University Dance Marathon 2013 (NUDM). With more than 1,400 students registering to dance, and an unprecedented amount of committee members, it’s safe to say that this year’s Dance Marathon will be spectacular. NUDM is the largest entirely student-run philanthropy in the country. The outstanding organization recently won a “Classy Award” for being the most influential college philanthropy, and has raised more than $1 million in each of the past two years. In what is widely considered the best “party” of the year, students will gather in a tent outside of Norris March 8-10 to dance for

30 hours straight. The energy is electric and contagious both during the event and all throughout the year, during which time there are weekly events supporting NUDM. This year’s fundraising efforts will benefit the Danny Did Foundation, a local non-profit founded by Mike and Marianna Stanton in January 2010 after the death of their 4-year-old son Danny. The foundation works to raise awareness of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) and provide medical devices to families in need. NUDM will also benefit the Evanston Community Foundation, a charity that gives grants to local non-profits. NUDM brings all parts of the Northwestern community together, whether it’s through “mini-DMs” at local high schools, the upcoming alumni gala, or the brand new multicultural dancer group. Always striving to carry proud the message of one Northwestern, we invite you learn more or donate at nudm.org.

Dr. Lesley-Ann Brown is the new Director of Campus Inclusion and Community (DCIC) at Northwestern University. The mission of the DCIC is to work collaboratively with the entire university community to create opportunities for dialogue, experiential learning, leader-ship development, multicultural education, social justice training, and advocacy aimed at fostering an inclusive learning environment for all students.

The Inclusion Task force was formed in the Fall 2012 quarter to assist with the develop-ment and implementation of various programs and services that will be executed from the DCIC. This group of 22 dedicated student leaders representing every academic school re-flects the richness and depth of diversity that exists within the Northwestern student body.

The Inclusion Task Force is broken into four working groups: Dialogue, Education and Training, Marketing, and Operations. Below you will find some information about the accomplishments of the Inclusion Task Force Working Groups. To learn more about the DCIC please visit www.northwestern.edu/inclusion

Campus Inclusion and Community

On Monday, January 21, Northwestern kicked off a week of events in honor of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. The university was closed in recognition of the holiday, but students were encouraged to take part in a day of ser-vice. Northwestern students and Evanston middle-schoolers engaged in a variety of service projects throughout the Chicago area. A candlelight vigil was also held later in the evening featuring an address by Napoleon Harris; an NU alumnus, newly elected Illinois State Senator (15th District), former member of the NU football team and first-round draft pick in the NFL. Commemorations continued throughout the week, featuring the work of Terry Adkins on display at the Mary and Leigh Block Museum of Art, as well as a panel discussion of “Immigration Through an Ethical Lens: The Challenges of

Lawyers and Doctors of Working with Undocumented Immigrants.” Singer, actor, and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte (pictured, left) was a special guest of the university this week. On Saturday, January 26, the Mary and Leigh Block Museum of Art screened “Sing Your Song,” a documentary focusing on Belafonte’s life and work. On Monday, January 28, Belafonte delivered the keynote address at Pick-Staiger Hall for the university-wide observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

Every February, students living on campus participate in

Green Cup, an annual competition aimed at reducing

electricity and water usage in residence halls and Greek

houses. Organized by Students for Ecological and

Environmental Development (SEED), with support from

the Office of Sustainability, Green Cup engages students

in behavior change and teaches them the impact of their

daily activities. Last year, students saved 363,261 gallons

of water and 73,375 kWh of electricity through simple

actions like sharing fridges,

taking shorter showers, and utilizing power strips and clothes

drying racks.

Residence halls realized a 4 percent reduction in both water and

electricity usage and Greek houses averaged a 9 percent

reduction - representing a savings of $5,195 of electricity and

$305 of water. Four winners will be announced at the end of

February for residences with dining halls, residences without

dining halls, fraternities, and sororities. Winners of this heated

competition earn bragging rights, a prize, and the right to the

Green Cup trophy for the year.

Off-Campus Life, housed within the Dean of Students Office, is excited to announce the new Off-Campus Ambassadors (OCA)

position beginning January 2013. OCAs are undergraduate student staff members who provide community building and more

localized attention (“eyes and ears”) to the issues and individuals in these Off-Campus communities. OCA’s will plan, market,

coordinate, as well as facilitate events and programs focused on neighborhood relations, Evanston Landlord/Tenant Law, living/

learning skills and approved social events for Off-Campus students. OCA’s will help Off-Campus students stay connected with the

NU Campus programs, educational resources and events.

The new Ambassadors are Mike Morgan, a junior studying environmental sciences; Chloe Woodhouse, a junior studying Science

in Human Culture and Anthropology; and Wilson Shirley, a sophomore from Lexington, Kentucky. If you would like to contact

the Off-Campus Ambassador staff, send your correspondence to: [email protected]

The Northwestern Alumni Association (NAA) strives to meet

the needs of alumni — and future alumni — in meaningful

ways. In fact, Northwestern students actually become part of

the alumni community from the moment they arrive on

campus. The NAA works to engage students through a broad

range of programming, including career exploration,

leadership opportunities, and networking.

Last year, participation in the Northwestern Externship

Program (NEXT) — a one day job-shadowing experience that

pairs students with alumni across the nation — increased

significantly as 225 alumni hosted a record 334 students.

Further, the Council of One Hundred — a nationwide

mentoring group of distinguished alumnae that helps equip

Northwestern women for success — conducted sessions

attended by more than 600 students and young alumnae.

And, more than 1,000 students — 50 percent of graduating

seniors — took part in an assortment of events during Senior

Week, which is co-sponsored by the NAA.

To nurture that Wildcat pride and reach our worldwide

community of alumni and parents, the NAA sponsors young alumni

chapters; regional, international, and affinity clubs; educational

programs; and networking/career events in select cities. In recent

years, the NAA has expanded programs focusing on key areas in

Northwestern’s strategic plan, as well as on the economy, career

services, life skills, and professional development. Alumni also stay

connected to the University through multimedia opportunities on the

NAA website (alumni.northwestern.edu) and through the NAA’s

official presence on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter.

Parent Involvement

Gifts to the Northwestern Parents’ Fund provide the

University with valuable resources that can directly benefit

students, such as financial aid packages, undergraduate

research support, and student-requested upgrades in

academic buildings to enhance the learning environment.

We hope you will consider joining over 30 percent

of Northwestern parents who generously donate

to this Fund every year. You can make a contribu-

tion to the Parents’ Fund online at

giving.northwestern.edu.

The University Career Services office isn’t just for help in resume writing and post-graduation career hunt. Internships, externships, and other job opportunities for students offer valuable experience that will augment their academic efforts. The UCS office is available to help connect students with internship opportunities, networking events, and more. The following are some programs that students may find helpful for the coming summer internship season. Summer Internship Grant Program (SIGP) www.northwestern.edu/sigp Unpaid summer internships can be a financial burden to many Northwestern families. Because of this, students sometimes have to turn down potential career-enhancing experiences to take a part-time job unrelated to their career. The SIGP program offers a stipend to students completing unpaid internships. Encourage your student(s) to seek funding and career development support through application to SIGP, administered by University Career Services. To see if your student(s) qualify to be a 2013 SIGP Fellow please visit our website. Application Deadline is April 15, 2013. NEXT Program The Northwestern Externship Program (NEXT) is a one-day, job-shadowing program that connects NU students and alum to offer an insider's view of daily activities in a variety of professions. Hundreds of externships will be available in a variety of fields, including health care, law, finance, consulting, journalism, advertising/public relations, education, and more! This is a jointly sponsored program by University Career Services and Northwestern Alumni Association. Student Registration for NEXT 2013 will open on January 22, 2013 and run through February 11, 2013. Visit www.alumni.northwestern.edu/next for additional information and to register for NEXT.

Winter 2012 Opera Performances of Northwestern Opera Theater’s Chicago-area premiere of “The Grapes of Wrath,” an opera based on John Stein-beck’s 1939 novel, take place at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 22; 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 24; 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 28; and 7:30 p.m. Sat-urday, March 2. Northwestern’s Winter 2013 production will feature a cast of approximately 60 students and include guest baritone Robert Orth, who will reprise the role of Uncle John he sang in the opera’s 2007 premiere. Orth is a leading vocalist with major opera companies in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra director Hal France, a specialist in contemporary American repertoire and a Northwestern University alumnus, is the music director. Set designer Collette Pollard, whose many credits include sets for Writers’ Theatre, Drury Lane Theatre, Steppenwolf Theatre and the Goodman Theatre, is a Northwestern alumna.

Spring 2013 Opera Claudio Monteverdi’s Baroque opera “L’incoronazione di Poppea” (“The Coronation of Poppea”), with libretto by Giovanni Francesco Busenello, will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 24 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, May 25. It will be sung in Italian with English supertitles. In “L’incoronazione di Poppea,” Poppea, the mistress of Emperor Nerone, is determined to ascend the throne -- whatever the costs. This story of love, deception, murder and betrayal is as relevant today as in Monteverdi’s time. Tickets are $15 for the general public and $6 for students and will go on sale in mid-February.

The 71st Annual Dolphin Show recently staged its 2013 production of My Fair Lady to rave reviews at Cahn Auditorium, on Northwestern Universi-ty’s Evanston campus. Presented by Arts Alliance -- the oldest and largest student arts organization at Northwestern University -- The Dolphin Show is one of the country’s largest student–produced musicals. The Dolphin Show evolved from a 1940s swim team fundraiser to an annual professional-caliber musical production. Working on every aspect of the production, the students serve as onstage talent and behind-the-scenes crew members, marketing managers and fundraisers.
