News for Sewanee Families

We will miss your seeing your students in the coming days as spring break begins and many leave campus. We wanted to share some dates of interest, events, and other news with you in this e-newsletter. Let us know what else you might want to see in each issue.

Commencement 101 Replay

If your student is participating in Commencement this May (so exciting!), you can get information on the weekend at the Commencement Central website.
You will be able to register for lunch tickets, see the weekend schedule, and order announcements. If you missed the Commencement 101 Zoom workshop, you can watch the replay here. We explain how the ceremony works and how many guests you can have, and we share the "don't miss" traditions.

We've set the date! We hope you will make plans to join your student and other families on the Mountain for Family Weekend 2023. We'll let you know when registration is open. If you need to book a place to stay, check the Sewanee Accommodations page for options.

Tiger Tuesday brings together Sewanee alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents, families, and friends to rally support for important initiatives on the Mountain. Mark your calendars to join more than 3,000 other donors who will support the Sewanee experience that day. You can direct your gift to athletics, scholarships, organizations, and more! Be on the lookout for emails and social media posts so you can be a part of this exciting day.

Last Day to Declare a Minor or Certificate of Curricular Study for Enrolled Seniors Graduating this Semester

A student may choose to complete a minor field of study or, where appropriate, a certificate of curricular study in an academic discipline, but doing so is not required for graduation. A certificate recognizes a program of coursework that involves a relatively large proportion of practicum training and requires a capstone project.

McClurg Hours for Spring Break

McClurg is closed from March 9 to18 and will reopen on Sunday, March 19, at 11 a.m. Stirling's will operate on a limited schedule. See the hours here.

Some Deadlines Extended for ACE Internship Applications

ACE Internships (click to see the remaining 2023 opportunities) are created especially for Sewanee students by alumni, parents, and friends. Your student can use the Handshake app to see the available opportunities. About 30 ACE internships remain open!

Perimeter Trail Hike Weekend

We take great care of you, so save your space and register today!
