Parents Council

The Loyola College Parents Council is a leadership group of parents that allows parents the opportunity to participate in a meaningful way in the educational experience of their children. Member parents serve as advocates for Loyola by actively engaging fellow parents in the life of the College. 

Member couples serve as co-hosts for parent events held in their area. They attend the event themselves and also assist Loyola staff by promoting the event through phone calls to other area parents.  Parents Council members also encourage others to support Loyola’s annual Parents’ Fund, and are asked to personally endorse the Fund by making a leadership gift at The John Early Society level. These generous couples set the pace for parent giving and inspire others to support Loyola.  

Members of the Parents Council and their children are invited each year to a special event scheduled during Family Weekend. A breakfast will be held Sunday, September 27 on the Evergreen Campus.

If you would like more information about the Parents Council, please contact Julie Ryder ’03 at 410-617-5289 or  jryder1@loyola.edu.
