Now an official Smith parent...

Aw, for Father's Day, D sent me a "Smith College Dad" hat.

Just in time to wear to the local Smith Club summer meeting/swim party next weekend.

Fwiw, it's nicely made, nicely embroidered high-quality hat.

TheDad, who has an eye for these things


Though now that I think of it, it should really be in official Smith
colors, white & blue, not black with gold text and white piping.

One of the first things my Dad bought on the first parent's weekend was a Smith College window sticker to put on his car window (right underneath the one from my brother's college!)

Happy Father's Day to all.

Touché, MWFN! TD, if you don't already exude "official-dom", I don't know who does!

Frankly, TD, I'm surprised it took you this long to acquire Smith paraphernalia. We just upped and made ourselves official last fall with Smith stickers on all three cars and with Smith T-shirts for us and for the grandparents! We got my father-in-law, who always loves a good joke, the "Smith Football" T-shirt that says "Still undefeated" on the back.

I also hope you had a great Father's Day; I know Randomcoolwhip did.

When I visited in April and knew Smith would be my home, I bought two stickers for my parents cars. That's how they became "official"..but my dad wants a hoodie still, so we're working on it

They're almost as excited as I am

D and I have the stickers too, louise Mine is right between the Colgate and Stevens stickers for her older siblings. I was very happy to scrape off her Brooklyn College sticker *lmao*

I will look for more Smithie-wear when we arrive at the end of August!

Happy father's day!

My dad (formerly not fond of Smith) is almost more pumped about Smith than I am!

Pickupsticks, I'm glad to hear your dad has come around! What tipped the scales for him?
