Groups:
I've just setup 2 new groups for you all.

Class of 2013 This group is for anyone as well but is focused more on the incoming class of ECU Parents. The class of 2013. Of course, all parents are welcome to join any group. A group is a subset of the larger network where conversations can take place.

NEW PARKING REGULATIONS FOR THE UNIVERSITY AREA
The City of Greenville is implementing new parking patterns north of the University in order to address parking and safety concerns. Some narrow streets will see a change to parking only on one side of the street so as to allow for adequate room for emergency vehicles to pass through. Changes are also coming to the two-hour parking zones in this area, which will become parking by residential permit only. For more on this, and a map of the affected areas, visit ECU Parking.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Emergency Notifications
- You can sign up to receive emails and/or test messages for some of the Emergency Notices that are sent to the students such as class cancellations and approaching storms. You can register HERE.
- Your child can sign up through their Onestop account. Instructions on how they sign up can be found HERE.
