Family Weekend, Scotty Saturday Have Something for Everyone

Genbusiness001

University of Pittsburgh issued the following announcement on Oct. 11.

Carnegie Mellon University's Family Weekend was the first fully in-person, on-campus event for parents and families since before the pandemic. This year’s large get-together was organized by the Student Affairs’ Office of Parent and Family Engagement.

Following Carnegie Mellon’s COVID-19 mitigation protocols, all parents and family members attending Family Weekend were required to be fully vaccinated or must have received a negative COVID-19 test result within three days of arriving on campus. Everyone was required to wear facial coverings at all times while on campus. 

The 2,000-plus visitors in attendance chose among over 40 activities such as meet-and-greets in each residential neighborhood; Scotch 'n' Soda, CMU’s student theatrical group for non-theater majors, performing "Once Upon a Benefit Cabaret," and the Tartans football game versus Westminster College, where CMU won 34-10. In addition, families could join a panel discussion around CMU academics and student life and attend college breakout sessions as well as open houses by the Center for Student Diversity and Inclusion, the Student Academic Success Center and the Tartan Scholars program.
