Research has shown that positive social networks and academic connections increase student retention and student success. This program pairs a freshman/
sophomore mentee with a junior/senior mentor. Students will meet weekly for a faculty-led mentoring session, engage in mentoring activities each week,
including social and academic activities, and complete a brief report on your activities each week.
This course is open to PSYCH majors only.
