Key Health Professions Mentors – Leaders of the Key Cluster Community
Key Mentors are student leaders on campus in their Junior or Senior year - many Key Alumni - who are excelling at the university. Key Mentors will work individually and collectively with Key Health Professions students throughout the year.
Key Mentors serve as "guides" to students in their academic, leadership, and social transition to college. Whether leading sessions at Key Orientation, hosting goal setting workshops, providing tips on time management, note taking, study skills in college, or referring students to various resources and opportunities on campus, Key Mentors are instrumental in developing a community based on personal connection.
Key Mentors are assigned to each of the Key Health Professions designated seminar classes (LIFE 180 and KEY192), serve as Teaching Assistants for both of these classes, assist students in evaluating their learning effectiveness, connect students to campus resources and opportunities, and conduct mid-semester Academic Progress Conferences with feedback from your professors. Mentors help students set goals and monitor their academic progress.
