Center accepting First Year Experience mentor applications

The Center for Student Development is inviting freshmen, sophomores and juniors to apply for First Year Experience (FYE) mentor positions for the 2014-2015 academic year. FYE mentors play an integral role in the success of Salve Regina’s first year students by supporting their transition into the University community.

Having already experienced their first year at Salve Regina, FYE mentors have a good understanding of what it’s like to be a student and are aware of available experiences, support services and programs. FYE mentors serve as leaders and resources to students enrolled in their first year seminar and co-teach the first year seminar class with the instructor.

During the fall semester, FYE mentors enroll in a practicum course that guides them in the process of self-assessment and reflection and provides support and resources to assist them in their duties. During the spring semester, FYE mentors play an important role in other programs, such as the class colloquium and class service projects.
