Dear Colleagues,
This year, UC Santa Barbara’s 2025 Parents and Family Weekend will take place on Friday, November 7 and Saturday, November 8. As many of you know, parents look forward to attending regularly scheduled classes on the first day of Parents and Family Weekend. Please consider allowing them to do so again this year on Friday, November 7.
If you do not wish to have parents visit your class, please contact Parents & Family Weekend c/o Event Management & Protocol: parent@ia.ucsb.edu.
Thank you for your cooperation and best wishes for a successful academic year.
Sincerely,
David Marshall, Executive Vice Chancellor and Provost
