Mentoring

Hi all,

I've had a few questions about mentoring and whether it's worth it or not. About three years ago, a lot of bos members were mentors and the few who are still around will testify that it's a great experience.

Mentoring is a very small commitment: You have to come to a training day between 9th-13th January, and then an Orientation day the week later (ie the week before class).

Mentoring's a great chance to get involved in campus life and to volunteer, but it's also beneficial to the Mentor as a lot of paid jobs on campus recruit Mentors.

If you're interested in volunteering those two days, apply to become a mentor online here: Transition - Macquarie University

Cheers!

Re: Mentoring

I did it once...it was a fun time

also for those doing GLP you can count it towards your 200 credits so its worthwhile for that as well!

But it was a fun couple of days....Really!

At the moment, 6th December is being advertised, but it'll probably stay open longer... Definitely apply now though, and then you can forget about it until you're emails with confirmation.
