Learning Center: Spring Mentor Celebration

Spring 2009 Mentor Celebration

Although the Fall Mentor Celebration has already taken place, student mentors from the Bepko Learning Center and Orientation Services are already planning the Spring 2009 Mentor Celebration. One area that sets the spring celebration apart from the fall celebration is the formal presentation of grants, component awards, and special recognitions. This year, be on the lookout for the Tonya Conour Faculty Service Award, the William Plater International Scholarship, and the Barbara D. Jackson Study Abroad Award as well as all of the component Mentor of the Year Awards, and the Christine Jakacky Award. This year, the Spring Mentor Celebration will again feature poster presentations from student mentors currently enrolled in UCOL U204 (Mentoring: Independent Study). The UCOL U204 presentations will give our student mentors an opportunity to share a little bit of their work and research that they have been doing all semester in trying to give back to the programs that have helped them so much.

The Spring 2009 Mentor Celebration will be held at the University Place Conference Center and Hotel from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. with a ceremony to follow. Be on the watch for an e-vite in your in-box or a paper invitation on your desk in the near future. Until then, you can check out http://uc.iupui.edu/learningcenter as more details are posted.
