SP2 Mentor Collective

The Mentor Collective program enhances the student and alumni experience by connecting students one-on-one with an SP2 alum mentor

SP2 students are paired with someone invested in their success — a person ready to listen, inspire, help navigate challenges, and recognize opportunities. SP2 students will learn what to expect in their respective degree programs, how to approach challenges, and gain career advice. At the same time, SP2 alumni mentors will build their networks, develop skills to become better professionals and leaders, as well as support our future leaders in social change.

  • Enhance students’ experiences
  • Cultivate personal and social connections
  • Develop professional networks
  • Effect meaningful change
