The Mothers' and Dads' Clubs of Southern Methodist University

Since 1926, the SMU Mothers' and Dads' Clubs have worked to foster a spirit of community on the Hilltop for our students and families. Through annual events and by serving as goodwill ambassadors, the Mothers' and Dads' Clubs strive to make everyone feel at home at SMU. We hope you will take a moment to browse our website, email us with questions, and connect with us on Facebook. Most of all, we hope you will join our Clubs and help us in our mission to make SMU an even better place.

The Outstanding Senior Man & Woman Awards

The Mothers' and Dads' Clubs recognized an exceptional group of men and women for their contributions to the SMU community at the 2012 Outstanding Senior Awards Reception at the home of President and Mrs. R. Gerald Turner on Monday, April 16, 2012. Click to view the award nominees and recipients, and see photos from the reception.

2012 Gifts Campaign

Making your family feel welcome on the Hilltop is one of our top priorities. We are pleased to host a variety of family-oriented events throughout the year to make the time you spend with your student enjoyable and relaxing. We also strive to recognize students' academic achievements through our Outstanding Senior Awards, and we help students to continue their education at SMU through our endowed scholarships.

In addition, the Mothers' and Dads' Clubs are committed to supporting much-needed programs and events for students. This year, with your help, we hope to provide financial support for a number of requests.

Please give to support SMU students by helping us fund these worthwhile programs. To make a gift, complete our online form.
