Parents Leadership Council
Lead. Connect. Make an Impact.
Parents and families play an essential role in the Seton Hall community. Through their generosity, experience and involvement, they help students thrive academically, professionally and personally.
The Parents Leadership Council (PLC) is a diverse group of parents and parents of alumni who serve as ambassadors for Seton Hall University. Members strengthen connections among families, offer valuable perspectives and support programs that enrich the student experience.
The PLC Experience
Parents Leadership Council members have opportunities to:
- Connect with University leaders, faculty, staff and fellow Seton Hall families.
- Share ideas and perspectives about the student and family experience.
- Welcome and engage prospective, new and current families.
- Participate in outreach to parents and parents of alumni.
- Contribute their professional experience through mentoring, career programming, networking and other volunteer opportunities.
- Host or attend regional gatherings, Homecoming and Family Weekend programs, and other University events.
- Support experiential learning and other priorities that directly benefit Seton Hall students.
- Attend PLC meetings and special programs throughout the academic year.
Membership Commitment
PLC members demonstrate leadership through both service and philanthropy. Members are invited to:
- Make an annual leadership gift of $1,000 or more to the area of Seton Hall that is most meaningful to their family.
- Participate in PLC meetings and engagement opportunities.
- Serve as ambassadors for the University and the Seton Hall family experience.
- Welcome new families and encourage meaningful involvement.
- Share their skills, experiences and perspectives in support of students and University priorities.
Leadership gifts may support academic success, career readiness, student engagement and leadership, wellness and student support, scholarships, experiential learning, or another area of personal interest.
Your Family’s Impact
Every family’s path of involvement is different. PLC members may mentor students, provide internships, participate in career programs, welcome families in their region, support admissions initiatives, host gatherings or advise the University on opportunities to strengthen the family experience.
Together, PLC families help students benefit from the academic, professional and community experiences that define a Seton Hall education.
