"As a mentor, I have the privilege of getting to know the students, provide specific career advice rather than rush through advising them on what classes to take. The Mentoring Program has benefited our students and faculty in building a community of professionals." — Dr. Joy James, Professor and Recreation Management Program Director
"I've found that mentoring is an opportunity to walk with a student over the bridge from being a student to being a professional. We talk about their interests, job opportunities and career strategies. If mentoring is done well, it can make all of the earlier investment pay off." — Dr. Trent Spaulding, Associate Professor and Health Care Management Program Director
