Mentor Collective

50% of students don't realize they're first-generation until they reach college, and often these students have the smallest support networks to help them navigate the intricate maze that comes with higher education. Mentor Collective's student engagement model was designed with first-generation students in mind as a mechanism to bring first-generation student voices to the highest levels of leadership and create learning environments where students feel supported by their peers, faculty, and institutions. In honor of #FirstGenerationStudentCelebration day, here are some of the impactful first-gen stories we've had the privilege of learning from our partners at Duke University, Georgia Institute of Technology, and Bucknell University. #CelebrateFirstGen #bethefirst

Our partners at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University are the perfect example of how mentorship uplifts the college experience and accelerates positive student outcomes throughout the student journey - whether a first-year or transfer student acclimating to a new institution or a junior or senior trying to decipher their next move after graduation. NC A&T currently has six Mentor Collective programs across colleges and the university as a whole; two of which are housed within the Willie A. Deese College of Business and Economics. Read some highlights about why mentorship matters for business students and how it builds on the critical community and alumni engagement of business schools.  

Thank you to Dr. Kevin James for speaking at this event last year and for being such a great champion for business student success!

Not only a platform...a partnership. When you work with Mentor Collective, you're given the ability to tell comprehensive student stories through our student voice data and assessment tools. Many institutions have used these peer-reported insights and alerts to further their student success strategies and share their institutional practices at conferences around the country.

Honored to once again have Charmaine Troy, Ph.D. share her expertise on first-generation student success at the National Symposium on Student Retention, and speak to the results of the First-Gen Jackets program at Georgia Institute of Technology. 

The Georgia Tech story is definitely worthy of a full house! If you couldn't attend the conference, take a look at a webinar we hosted with Dr. Troy last year.

Join us for an insightful webinar with University of Wisconsin-Superior’s Provost Dr. Maria Stalzer Wyant Cuzzo about how new mechanisms for enhancing #predictiveanalytics are increasing #retention.

During college, I remember joining several courses 2-3 weeks into the semester. I felt like I was sprinting to catch a train that had already left the station. Everyone else knew the syllabus and had already acclimated to the professor's mannerisms -- I, on the other hand, was drowning from a firehose of information. 

On the last day of National Transfer Student Week, I am reflecting on the  effects of jumping into a college experience midway through. 

Roughly 2 million students transfer colleges in America each year. My mother was one of them over 5 decades ago. In fact, she is at her 50th year college reunion in California this week.

When she transferred, there were few support structures in place -- no orientation, no specialized advising, no peer mentoring programs. She missed the train and had to sprint to catch up.

Transfer student success has certainly come a long way in the last half-century and I am grateful to have watched leaders like Alfred Herrera, Samantha McAuliffe-Raynor, and Heather Adams, Ed.D champions new paradigms in just last few years.

There is more work to be done, but I know my mother would feel infinitely more seen and supported at her alma mater today.
