“This experience is much more rigorous than other jobs I’ve had; no other campus job has demanded the level of knowledge and critical thinking that this job does. This has been a very rewarding and satisfying job — personally and monetarily. It is a direct link in my chain of academic goals.”
Carly Miyamoto Faber, ’07 biology

Each mentor-student pair is required to complete a Learning Agreement as part of the application process.

All Student Assistants are required to participate in a series of workshops that provide orientation and support for their experience. Mentors take part in informal meetings with other mentors several times during the semester.
