MACALESTER PARENT & FAMILY LEADERSHIP COUNCIL
Community and connection are cornerstones of the Macalester experience and as the parent and family member of a Scot, you’re part of a 35,0000-person-strong alumni, parent, and family community that shares your connection to Macalester.
The Macalester Parent & Family Leadership Council (PFLC) serves to build and strengthen the parent and family community by fostering meaningful relationships between families and the college and helps the college achieve its strategic priorities by serving as ambassadors of the college.
PFLC Goals and Opportunities
- Serve as ambassadors of the college by fostering connections among all Mac families through events and communications;
- Network and connect with one another through PFLC events;
- Advocate for families and students by sharing perspectives with senior leaders and college administrators about the most important issues impacting the Macalester Community;
- Invest in students by supporting the Parents & Families Fund of the Macalester Fund and encourage other parents to give gifts in support of our bright and talented students from across the country and around the world;
- Engage with prospective and newly admitted students and their families to help them prepare for their journeys in the Twin Cities or elsewhere and
- Engage in the work of Macalester Career Exploration and empower students to achieve their career goals. PFLC families serve as ambassadors for students by sharing their knowledge and networks and offering job and internship opportunities.
