Seeking Guest Contributors for The Daily Collegian Mentoring Blog

The blog is getting a makeover. And we need your creative input.

This year, we plan to utilize our blog as an additional mentoring tool by updating the site with industry news and internship / entry-level job resources for students. It will still serve as a means of communicating program news, but we hope to include greater discussions and more voices.

We are currently seeking individuals interested in contributing content to the blog. You don’t have to be a mentor to participate. All TDC business division alumni are encouraged to submit a post (or two). Our goal is to provide guest commentary that offers relevant professional advice from people who have successfully made the transition from The Collegian to their careers.

Here are the basics:

•Topics can include industry news, career advice, personal stories, professional resources, etc.
•Entries can be in text, audio, video, or infographic format.
•Participation is 100% voluntary. You can submit one post all year or as many as your schedule permits.

Based on student involvement, it’s clear the staff wants to hear from you. We’d love the opportunity to share your advice to a growing, eager audience!

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please let us know at CollegianMentoring@gmail.com. We plan to feature guest contributors as early as mid-November.

Aren’t makeovers fun?

Collegian Mentor Matches Released!

Happy Monday!

Today we are releasing the 2011-2012 Collegian Mentoring Matches for the Business Division. Thanks so much for everyone that applied. We were able to match all students with a talented group of alumni.

But wait, there's MORE!

This year we are giving Alumni an additional opportunity to mentor in a larger capacity. Stay tuned over the next couple of weeks for an update from Kelsey Thompson on this great new initiative.

Final Call for Applications

"We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give." Winston Churchill

Tomorrow is the last day to apply for interest in the Collegian Mentoring Program.

If you have not applied and want to mentor or be mentored, please reach out for an application by sending an email to CollegianMentoring@gmail.com.

Students are already aware of how great a program like this can be for them. Alumni, this guidance-based program is very hands-off and is purely focused on the 1-on-1 relationship with your Mentee, with just a little help from the program team in offering topics of discussion via this blog. It is a great and easy way to give back to the Collegian.

Reach out for your application today!
