The Campus Assessment Working Group (CAWG) recently released our latest Snapshot of student experiences: Mentorship Programs (www.umd.edu/CAWG). We invite you to join us for a campus-wide forum on the Snapshot on June 6th from 1-2pm, during which we'll summarize survey results and host a panel discussion with several staff members who coordinate particular mentorship programs on campus.

The Mentorship Programs Snapshot explores data from a 2011 survey of UMD freshmen's experiences with mentorship programs. It addresses how many programs freshmen were offered or considered, how they heard about the programs, whether and why they chose to enroll, and which programmatic activities they perceived to be the most beneficial. This Snapshot contains information particularly relevant to advisors, faculty, and academic and student affairs staff.

We hope you'll take a few minutes to review the Snapshot and join us for the forum!
