October 30November 1, 2015 See you there! (#LUfamily) Dear Lehigh Family Members, Welcome back to campus for Family Weekend. As the university’s new president, I am excited to showcase many of the exciting academic and extra-curricular opportunities available to your students. As the proud parent of a member of Lehigh’s Class of 2019, I share your curiosity about how these opportunities are engaging and inspiring our students as they grow and develop into the leaders of tomorrow. It is a great time to be at Lehigh, as 2015-16 marks the university’s Sesquicentennial, a year-long celebration of 150 years of Lehigh pride and progress. Throughout the year, we are honoring the people, places, and traditions of the past 150 years. We are celebrating the present with events that feature the ground-breaking research of our faculty and innovative work of our students. And we are looking forward to the future, expanding landmark programs, and launching new initiatives that will keep Lehigh at the forefront of education. Family Weekend is designed to give you, members of our extended Lehigh Family, the chance to honor the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to an exciting future with us. This booklet outlines the many activities planned for the weekend. I hope you will join your student in experiencing all that Lehigh has to offer, and I look forward to seeing you on campus. Sincerely, John D. Simon ’19P President 2 WEEKEND SCHEDULE Please register at www.lehigh.edu/familyweekend by October 16.
