Faculty Mentors

Faculty mentors who teach the First-Year Writing Seminar also serve as advisors for first-year students until they are ready to declare a major. Mentors reserve time to meet with students each week to discuss issues such as:

• Succeeding academically
• Developing education goals
• Investigating majors
• Planning for careers
• Graduate school
• Internships
• Study abroad
• Meeting graduation requirements

Faculty mentors also refer students to the many services available at Whittier College.
