Friends of Southwestern

Parents and Friends

Tuition and fees cover just 60 percent of what Southwestern spends to educate each student. Parents make an investment with high returns. Our many friends have a special relationship with the University and take an active role in ensuring its future success. Southwestern is grateful for the generous support it receives from our current parents and many friends.

Parent Leadership Council

The Parent Leadership Council strengthens and enhances the Southwestern Experience with their time, talents, and financial gifts. Through the efforts of its members, the PLC creates opportunities for meaningful engagement between parents and University leadership, helps maintain the excellence of University programs by supporting the Parent Fund (part of the Southwestern Fund), promotes parent-to-parent interaction within the University community, and serves as a network of informed ambassadors for the University.
