Parent Leadership Council
The Parent Leadership Council (PLC) is a diverse group of parents who actively want to contribute to the mission of the university through initiatives that will enhance the student experience. The parents who are members are current leaders in their communities and careers and serve the university in the following ways:
- Participate as Ambassadors for Florida Tech throughout their networks and companies, often providing internships, career opportunities and mentoring for Florida Tech students
- Attend two meetings per academic year, in-person and on campus
- Make a philanthropic gift to Florida Tech, at a Leadership Giving Level (average PLC giving is $2,500 annually)
Upon graduation, many Parents give a Capstone Gift to the University to honor their student and family!
The benefits to serving in this capacity are many!
- Members get invited to VIP events throughout the year where they can meet university faculty, leadership, and other members of the community
- Develop and serve in meaningful ways throughout the campus community, that lead to enhancing the mission of Florida Tech and your experience as a Panther family
- Become connected to other Florida Tech parents from around the country and the world
- Stay connected to campus activities, messaging, and news
