If you attended the Family Retreat in October, make sure your student checked their mail to find the postcard you wrote them! Postcards were sent a few weeks ago to help give our Ospreys a little extra boost of support for the end of the semester ❤️ Residential students should check their on campus mailboxes, commuter students had it sent to the home address provided!
We look forward to bringing this postcards project back again in the future!
