UV Mentors
What is a UV Mentor?
Mission Statement
We are students helping students.
UV Mentors develop personal leadership and mentoring skills as they work with the instructor and students in Student Success (CLSS 1000) classes.
As UV Mentors, we assist students in discovering the personal attributes necessary for a successful education.
We encourage students to develop study habits that will allow them to take responsibility for their education and prepare them for life.
We help students connect to the campus community and find resources that will best meet their needs.
We make success accessible.

Students need the opportunity to learn from someone who has not just walked in their shoes, but who is in their shoes now; someone who is in touch with the current challenges and demands the students are facing, and someone who has been trained to connect with appropriate resources.
