Welcome
to Families and Students from Provost Gale Stevens Haynes |
I
am delighted to welcome you - parents, grandparents, spouses, partners
and families of our students - to the Brooklyn Campus Family page.
Thank you for visiting our Web site and for being part of the Brooklyn
Campus community.
Over the years, we have found that students and their families often
have questions about various aspects of the college life - ranging
from financial and admission services to health facilities and academic
support programs - as well as about the many challenges facing new
and returning college students. In response, we have developed this
Family section, which I hope will provide you with easy access to
useful information and help you enjoy a fruitful experience with our
Campus.
Your dedication, involvement and sacrifice are critical components
of a successful college career. We do our part by offering small classes,
specialized programs and a truly caring, outstanding faculty and staff
in order to provide an excellent liberal arts and sciences education
along with the skills and technologies needed for a wide-range of
rewarding careers. We strive to produce well-informed citizens who
will contribute to the future of our city, our community and our world.
I urge you to explore this site to familiarize yourself with the Brooklyn
Campus, including the specific kinds of support and counseling available
to assist students in this important venture in higher education.
On the left side of this page, we have provided links to guide you
to parts of this Web site with answers to many of your questions.
I would like to highlight two particularly helpful areas.
One concern of many families is financial aid. By clicking on the Financial
Services link, you will find extensive information and contacts
for advisers to help you in this critical area. Please also note the Key Contacts link. There, you can find contact information for
individuals-many who themselves are LIU grads-who can answer most
questions about classes, programs, financial services, and payment
and academic records.
We believe that, whether you are a parent or other family supporter
or are yourself a student, the more you know, the better your experience
will be at our university.
To each of you, once again, welcome to the Brooklyn Campus.
Sincerely,

Gale Stevens Haynes
Provost
