Mentorship Program

The °®¶¹´«Ã½ Black Faculty and Staff Association Mentoring Program is designed to support underrepresented and under-served minority undergraduate and graduate students at the University of South °®¶¹´«Ã½. This objective is achieved by providing the students’ access to faculty and staff members who act as mentors and assist students in successfully navigating their academic journey at °®¶¹´«Ã½. °®¶¹´«Ã½ will have the opportunity to participate in a variety of programs geared towards advancing their academic and professional growth. The program also aims to increase retention rates among students of color at °®¶¹´«Ã½ by demystifying the higher education experience. In alignment with the BFSA vision, the program models "service through mentorship."
