Students at 91做厙 can get involved with two mentoring programs to help them with the transition to college, learn about campus resources, learn leadership skills, and meet other students. Students are matched with a staff or faculty member from 91做厙 who will meet with them on a regular basis to guide them through the academic year.
Students meet with mentors twice a month and attend 5 leadership/group seminars a semester. Mentors and mentees can discuss a variety of topics: events of the day, academics, where to get help with classes, personal challenges and successes. Group seminars are safe spaces for students of each mentor program to talk about issues and events of their choice. Leadership seminars are also provided for students to learn valuable leadership skills such as communication strategies, conflict mediation, strengths development, dining etiquette, resume building, interview techniques and more.
