Parent and Family Connections

We are committed to enhancing each student's learning experience by engaging parents and families as active partners in supporting student success at BGSU. Our mission is to educate and advocate for BGSU families and provide a synergistic environment for both students and families.

At BGSU, we embrace the notion of multi-dimensional families and recognize that family structures include families of origin and families of choice. We serve all families guardians, grandparents and other supporters in the lives of our students.

Our intent is to make the BGSU campus a “home away from home” by offering you a full range of services and resources. We invite you to contact us with any questions or concerns at families@BGSU.edu or 419-372-0438. If you have an immediate concern about the health and safety of a student outside of business hours, please contact the Campus Police at 419-372-2346.
