For Faculty

Liberal Arts Faculty Mentor Program

What is the Liberal Arts Faculty Mentor Program?
The Liberal Arts Faculty Mentor Program is designed for faculty advisors and students who seek a long-term mentoring relationship. Faculty mentors academically advise students from their own classes and, in some cases, register them, as well. Faculty are afforded the opportunity to further interact with students from their discipline and to assist these students in long range career planning, as well as class selection from semester to semester.

How Does it Work
Liberal Arts faculty involved in the Mentor Program inform Liberal Arts students in their classes about this advising opportunity and solicit students from their classes who would like them as a Mentor. This instructor then serves as a Mentor throughout the students’ education at MCC.

What are the Program's Benefits to Students?

  • Students have one academic advisor while attending MCC
  • Students have an advisor whom they already know from their courses.
  • Students have someone to turn to for academic questions and a supportive mentor who can advise them and direct them to other valuable resources on campus.
  • Students develop a multi-level relationship with their instructors/advisors outside the classroom

Who Are the Students Served By The Liberal Arts Mentor Pprogram?
All Liberal Arts General Studies (LA04) students are eligible to be part of the Mentor Program.
