How Mentoring Program Works
• Coordinator receives applications and makes pairs
• Pairs are made in the fall and disbanded in June
• Budget through CPD
• Occasional programming for mentorship pairs

In Fantasyland the program would have…
• Support from an AUL as an official sponsor
• Group offer suggestions mentorship pairs to coordinators
• Create a broader network of mentors
• Have a support system for the mentors
• Use campus resources to promote the program

Future Considerations
• Evolving committee – need for inclusivity, CPD basis for change
• Budget will be ever-present, rather than something we had to react to
• As tech improves, what is the possibility of creating a clearinghouse of talks/programs/ideas? What is needed?
