父母 and Family as Partners

Family connections are critical to today's college students. With our shared goals of student success, Alfred University faculty and staff view family as partners in preparing students for life after college. For more information, continue reading our Family Philosophy statement below.

培养独立

The desire to advocate for your student is normal and natural, and we welcome questions from families. 然而, we work directly with our students in exploring situations of concern so that they can learn to manage conflict and advocate for themselves.

February 2023 Webinar for 家庭: Residence Life

Our first in a series of webinars for families features a presentation by Max Koskoff, Director of Residential Communities.


At Alfred University we value a community environment that fosters intellectual curiosity and growth, promotes and models good citizenship, encourages enlightened leadership and respects everyone. Your student is learning to become an independent thinker and self-advocate. We will educate them to explore the opportunities available to them, make decisions and learn from them, and take responsibility for their own learning. We ask that you support your student’s developmental process by encouraging their dialogue with us in solving problems and expressing ideas.

While it may seem easier in the short run to "solve the problem" for your student when asked for help, the student doesn't always learn from that how to manage conflict or advocate for themselves. We ask that before you contact us, you ask your student to get in touch with the appropriate faculty or staff member to start the discussion.

在大多数情况下, you will learn about your students' accomplishments, 成绩, 司法行为, 身体健康, or mental health concerns from them, or from a faculty or staff member only with the student’s knowledge and consent. We encourage you to discuss with your student your expectations for sharing that information with you.
