    COMPASS

    Upcoming Event(s) 

    ASGSA will be offering its COMPASS program for the spring semester. This program matches undergraduate students (mentees) with graduate student mentors. The time commitment for the semester is attending a brief orientation (doodle poll of participants; TBD) and meeting with your mentee 3 times during the semester (~ 1 hour/ meeting). Mentors and mentees from the fall semester can continue with their mentorship program if both are interested, but they should still sign up via Google Forms! I’ve attached a slide with more information regarding the program. We want to do a coffee hour a few times throughout the semester for mentors to touch base regarding the program and review mentoring strategies. The deadline for signing up is Friday, February 7th. Please let us know if you have any questions and thank you for volunteering!
