"Just a quick note to thank you for all you've done to make our son comfortable in his first year at UNH.  He absolutely loves living in your hall and we're grateful that you've created a welcoming, supportive environment.  We so look forward to having him home for visits...but we're delighted that he can't wait to get back to his life at UNH and his hall.  It's tough letting go...but that's what it's all about, isn't it?"
- UNH Parent

"I have loved having contact with parents.  We get to work with such great students every day and it is interesting to get to talk to their parents and learn more about where they come from.  It makes me feel good when I get responses back from my emails."
- Ann, Residence Hall Director
