Dear Civils, I hope this email finds you well! We are excited to continue Purdue’s Graduate Mentorship Program and invite you to participate—either as a mentor or a mentee. This program is designed to connect experienced graduate students with new students who are seeking guidance on academic success, navigating campus life, and adjusting to Purdue’s culture. Whether you're looking to share your knowledge or receive advice and support, this is a great way to get involved! Why become a mentor? * Help new students succeed by offering advice on academics, time management, and adapting to life at Purdue. * Build friendships and expand your network within the graduate community. * Develop leadership and communication skills that will benefit you in your career. * Give back to the Purdue community by sharing your experiences. Why become a mentee? * Get support from experienced peers who understand the challenges of graduate school. * Receive personalized advice on how to excel academically, access campus resources, and integrate into the community. * Connect with new people and ease your transition into graduate life at Purdue. Whether you’re interested in mentoring or being mentored, this is a fantastic opportunity to build connections and create lasting relationships within the Purdue community. It’s also a great way to expand your support network and develop skills that will serve you beyond graduate school.
