Join us for Family Weekend

■

Oct. 9–11, 2009

Immerse yourself in the Madison Experience and join other JMU parents and families for a special weekend on campus during one of Harrisonburg’s most beautiful seasons. Family Weekend is your opportunity for a taste of campus life. Visit your son’s or daughter’s campus home, talk with university staff members, attend a class or presentation, tour campus, attend a concert and cheer on the Dukes to football victory. Bring your whole family and meet other Madison families. Use this informative brochure to plan your weekend. Please register early since many of the ticketed keted events sell out quickly!
