The goal of the\u00a0Mentoring for Social Justice and Community-Building Project<\/em>\u00a0\u2013 sponsored by the School of Graduate Studies and Douglass Residential College \u2013 is to foster mutually beneficial relationships between current graduate students and undergraduates committed to aligning their scholarship, advocacy, and collaborations with social justice principles. Through training graduate students in justice-oriented approaches to mentorship and partnering a cohort of graduate student mentors with Douglass undergraduate mentees, the project aims to generate sustainable near-peer mentoring relationships shaped by common interests, experiences, or aspirations.<\/p>\n

The selected cohort of graduate student mentors participate in a year-long experience during which they attend\u00a0two training sessions on social justice mentoring, facilitate dialogues with mentees on a justice-oriented topic of their choice, host virtual office hours for mentees, and co-create a presentation with their mentees at the conclusion of the one-year experience reflecting on their learning.<\/p>\n

Upon participating in the project, graduate student mentors will be able to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Co-create a mentoring agreement with their undergraduate mentees.<\/li>\n
  2. Facilitate engaging and inclusive dialogues.<\/li>\n
  3. Define equitable strategies for mentoring undergraduates.<\/li>\n
  4. Apply social justice frameworks to mentoring relationships with undergraduates.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Graduate student mentors are compensated for their time and eligible to receive a digital microcredential from the School of Graduate Studies recognizing their contributions to socially just mentoring.<\/p>\n

    The 2022-23 project is supported by the Division of Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Engagement’s IDEA Innovation Grant Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    The application cycle is\u00a0closed for the 2022-23 mentor cohort.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
