Welcome!

College can be a challenging time for a student. They are entering into a new chapter of their life, with a new environment, people, role changes and expectations. As your student enters college, they will need your support, advice and sometimes even just a friend. The Dragon Family Page should serve as your guide to helping you support your newest college student during this chapter, along with resources to assist you.

The Dragon Family Page includes ways to show support to your student, tips and tricks from our faculty and staff, resources for parents and families, TU quick links, important and upcoming dates and so much more! 

Join our Facebook Group to connect with other families and ask questions.
