STARS Peer Mentoring Program
Our STARS (Students Together Achieving & Reaching Success) Peer Mentoring Program currently serves first-year, first-generation students (Mentees) by providing them with purposeful connections, motivational encouragement, academic support and resources, and a comfortable environment for them to ask questions, seek guidance, and share their successes. The Program also welcomes any beginning undergraduate student who reaches out for such assistance and peer support because he or she may have little to no support resources (or peer relationships) either on or off campus. Additionally, the STARS Peer Mentoring Experience Program enhances the communication, leadership and managerial skills of the continuing (upper-level) business students who serve as the Mentors in the program, selected because of either high academic caliber or demonstration of resiliency by overcoming previous obstacles. Students interested in the STARS Program, should contact the Director of Student Success & Career Development for more details.
