SNG Student Mentors Retreat

On August 26th, training began for our new SNG Student Mentors.  Our retreat was packed with useful information and we learned lots of new skills - particularly related to facilitating diversity discussions, communicating with professionals and students, and being inclusive leaders.  With the help of the National Coalition Building Team on campus, we explored personal biases and worked on strategies to respond to hurtful and prejudiced comments.  We also prepared to meet our students and professional mentors on September 2nd.  My thanks to all of the students for an outstanding, successful retreat!
