FROM THE PARENT PROGRAM DIRECTOR
Happy New Year 2024 graphic
Greetings from Nashville! Summer is in full swing at Lipscomb, and we’ve already welcomed many of our newest Bison families during three New Student Orientations this month. It’s been such a joy to meet them and share in their excitement for the fall.

Campus has remained lively with a variety of camps, while our service operations team is hard at work preparing residence halls and facilities for everyone’s return in August. In the coming weeks, our office will be hosting Summer Send-Off events in several cities. These events are wonderful opportunities for families to connect, catch up and welcome those joining the Lipscomb community this fall. We hope to see you at one of these special gatherings!

Director of Parent Engagement
