Mentoring Program
The purpose of the GSRC Mentorship Program is to provide support for individuals within the gender, sexuality, and romantic spectrums. This program is based upon existing scholarship on the best practices in mentorship programs across the discipline of higher education. This program is aimed at undergraduate students who will serve as mentees and graduate students, faculty, and staff volunteers who will serve as mentors. By implementing a mentorship program for those who identify within this community, students will receive guidance and support that will assist them throughout their undergraduate years.
