Description of Curriculum
-
- Students will have a meal with their group once a week during the fall and spring
semesters. The meetings will cover aspects of the program curriculum that can also
be found in EIU鈥檚 University Foundations Course. Mentors will help clarify discussions, answer questions, and provide anecdotal examples
to support the Foundations Course material presented to students, helping them retain
important information.
- In addition to curriculum assistance, meetings allow for students to informally talk
with their mentor and other peers about their current experiences as a new EIU students,
enhancing peer communication and giving mentees additional resources of support and
information.
- Graduate assistants will host meetings with the mentors once a month during both the
fall and spring semesters. These meetings will act as regular check-ins for the mentor
to discuss how their mentor groups are going, review curriculum and goals, and acquire
additional leadership skills.
