Graduate Peer Mentoring Collaborative

2019 Peer Mentors — 2019-2020 Graduate Peer Mentor Cohort

The Graduate Peer Mentoring Collaborative at NC State is dedicated to providing support to our fellow graduate students. The goals of the program include learning about and enacting quality mentoring relationships. We are graduate students from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, the College of Veterinary Medicine, and the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences working to help foster peer mentoring relationships within our departments. We also work to create a culture of peer mentoring across colleges.

"Being a mentor means being authentic, in that approaches you take to mentorship have to resonate with you as much as they do your mentee" -- Federico Scholcover

"In developing ongoing mentoring relationship, I practice receiving before transmitting. This involves being cognizant of my own weaknesses and then listening and understanding my mentee's unique circumstances" -- Katy Schwaeble
