Many students enjoyed getting together with grandparents and other family members while getting a taste of campus life, sharing meals with grandchildren, touring the historic campus and taking in a ballgame or “The Sound of Music,” the university’s spring musical. Grandparents Day was organized by the SWU Advancement Office.
Grandparents Day is held annually on the third Friday of March. For details this event and other opportunities for family and friends to connect with Southern Wesleyan University, contact Lisa McWherter at (864) 644-5013 or email .
