The purpose of this program is to provide academic, social, and moral support for our Dedman College’s Black students as they navigate their academic careers at °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â and build community among the College’s Black students, faculty, staff, and alumni. As mentors, volunteer faculty, staff, alumni, graduate students, seniors, and juniors would provide motivation and guidance to first-year, sophomore, and transfer students, as well as suggestions and strategies for obtaining internships, applying for graduate school, and preparing for post-graduate career opportunities. Mentors are also welcome to share ideas and suggestions for community-building activities and events within the College and possibly throughout °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â. This program complements existing Dedman College or °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²ÊÔ¤²â resources, programs, or services by offering a supplemental opportunity for Dedman College’s black students to connect with our faculty and administration and build community with fellow students. The DCBSM initiative is a collaboration between the Dedman College Dean’s Advisory Committee of Campus Climate and the Office of Engaged Learning’s Mustang Mentors Program.
