The
Mentor Program is open to all first-year ALANA and international
students, as well as all students participating in the Passport
Program. Groups of about six students will be matched with
a student and a faculty mentor for on-going conversation,
advice, and friendship. You can participate in the Mentor
Program regardless of whether you are in the First Year Program,
coming for Odyssey, have a work-study
job, or will play a varsity sport.
By participating
in the Mentor Program, you are matched with a Faculty Mentor
and a Peer Mentor.
We will match you with these individuals based on your profile
of your academic major, extra-curricular interests, and background.
Your Mentors will be vital resources for your tenure at Holy
Cross.
The Faculty
Mentors are crucial elements of the program. These individuals
also serve as your Academic Advisor. It is important to keep
good communication with your Faculty Mentor. They are good
resources for understanding academic procedures and policies
at Holy Cross. These people will be available to you for guidance
and support.
The Peer
Mentors are upper-class students who will play a critical
role in the program and in your adjustment to Holy Cross.
Shortly we will post photos and profiles of the Peer Mentors for 2008-09. Bookmark this page so you can visit again.
