Join your student peers and alums from an active LSA community for an afternoon of connections where you’ll explore the impact 1:1 mentoring can have on your own undergraduate journey and career development. Learn about mentoring through first-hand experiences from students who just completed the year-long LSA Mentorship Program (more info on that below). You can mix and mingle with alum mentors from a range of majors and industries and get a taste of the kind of career advice you can receive over the course of next year. With the school year almost over, take advantage of this on-campus event to connect with LSA alums and fellow students in a low-stakes environment where you can ask any questions, practice connecting with professions, and find your people within LSA.
