The
Biola Parent Council is made up of 23 parents of current Biola students who
represent your needs and concerns to Biola's administration. The Council is
actively involved in hosting parent events at Biola, providing feedback to Biola
about their experiences with the University, and spear-heading fundraising activities.
The Council meets on campus during New Student
Orientation in August, at Parent Weekend
in October, and one time during the Spring semester.
New members to the Council are usually selected after their student's first year of attendance at Biola and serve for the duration of their student's enrollment. The Biola Parent Council has been instrumental in several projects at Biola, including fundraising for the campus Library and the Chapel Seating Expansion, creation of a Parent Dessert Reception at Orientation, encouraging a change in the academic calendar to allow for a travel day at Thanksgiving, and lengthening the timeframe for move-in day for new students. They also help with the recruitment activities for parents of prospective students.
