Why be a Mentor?
I enjoy working with students and helping them learn things that aren't taught in the classroom, that will help prepare them for their professional career after graduation. Regardless of being a mentor or a mentee, the program provides everyone the opportunity to learn and grow together.

Why be a Mentor?
"The mentor/mentee program is very important to ensure that we have a consistent set of practices and resources for all mentors and mentees in RCAC. I love working with students since they often have a lot of energy and time to work through complex issues that full time staff may not have the time to do when working on multiple projects."

Why be a Mentor?
"Beyond the impacts to mentee growth, being a mentor allows me to promote creativity, cultivate a passion for technology, and build a community of acceptance within our organization's culture.As mentorship is a critical component of growth for both the mentee and the organization, I believe it is critical to create a structured platform to encourage and foster mentors."
