Family Weekend 2022
September 16 - 18, 2022
Family Weekend is a time-honored tradition for the Washburn University community. Classes have been in session for more than a month. It's a good occasion to pause to visit with our families and friends, enjoy activities on the Memorial Union lawn, and tailgate before watching the football game. Faculty, staff, and their families often join in on the fun as well!
Event Details
Siblings Day
Future Ichabods can get a closer look at life on campus while hanging out with their brothers and/or sisters during Siblings Day.
This year's event will be during Family Weekend on Friday, Sept. 16. Check-in is from 5 to 5:30 p.m. in the lobby of the Living Learning Center. The event will include free pizza, games, prizes and Washburn history.
The most popular feature of Siblings Day is that siblings can stay in the residence halls with their brother or sister, as long as they're a current Washburn student.
Siblings must be at least 6 years old, and each Washburn student may bring up to three siblings. Students must obtain approval from suitemates for siblings to stay the night.
