It's inevitable that your student will get sick and while we hope it is a mild cold, be prepared by knowing where to send your student for medical help. Do this by knowing what providers are in your network and making sure your student has a copy of your insurance card. If your student doesn't have insurance, know about the low-cost clinics in the Cedar City community. Learn where our local Instacare and ER are located as well as where the closest pharmacy is located. Our Health and Wellness office can help your student navigate this as well. 

Join us for our Homecoming weekend as we celebrate SUU and our community. We hope this weekend gives you a chance to spend some time with your student while exploring what SUU and Cedar City have to offer. See the full homecoming schedule here.

This weekend is planned around some fantastic homecoming events that we hope you will go to. This is a great time to have your student show you where their favorite places are on campus, their favorite restaurants, favorite place to explore, etc. Read this article about what to expect and how to plan for a family weekend. Don't forget to wear your red! Go T-Birds!

Mental health is essential for a student's academic success. SUU provides resources, support, and services to address mental health issues at every level of concern. We are committed to helping all Thunderbirds Thrive. If your student needs assistance navigating any of the resources, please have them contact Counseling and Psychological Services, the Dean of Student's Office, or the Health and Wellness Center.

TAO Connect is a virtual resource that is free to your student. It is full of online workshops and self-guided resources. Your student can access this resource through their mySUU portal by clicking on the "Mental Health Resources" button.

SUU's Writing Center has expanded to include three branches: the writing center, the graduate writing center, and the writing fellows. We welcome student writers at every skill and confidence level and at every stage of the writing process because every writer needs a reader.
