Welcome to Colby's parents website. Serving as an index and annotated guide to the myriad resources, program details, and news items on Colby's main website, these pages are a good place to begin your search for information about academic and college life at Colby.
Parents are an important part of the Colby community, and all parents of current students and alumni are members of the Parents Association. As association members, parents receive the monthly electronic parent newsletter Parents Out of the Blue and the quarterly Colby magazine.
The College encourages and appreciates parent involvement through:
- support of athletic programs, the arts, and student performances
- sponsorship of student intern and career opportunities
- volunteering to make welcome calls to new families
- financial contributions through the Colby Fund for Parents
If you have a question or cannot locate the information you are looking for, please contact the Office of Parent Programs at 207-859-4322 or parents@colby.edu.
We wish you and your student a fulfilling experience with this wonderful learning community!
Best wishes,

Bob Hesslein and Chris Ciotti
