Pittsburgh Mentor Meetup

Thursday, February 4, 2021

5:30–6:45 p.m. EST

The nearly fifty alumni in the greater Pittsburgh area involved in the Liberal Arts Alumni Mentor Program are a significant resource for young Penn Staters as they explore careers, develop professionally, and prepare to transition from college to work or advanced education. Effective mentoring is multifaceted, and there are additional challenges to the craft in this constrained environment.

The Pittsburgh Mentor Meetup will provide new insights into today’s students and time to meet one another and exchange ideas. Together we can help an increasing number of students achieve their goals and prevail through this challenging time.

Advance registration is required.

Zoom meeting details will be provided in a confirmation email.
