Academic mentors needed for high-risk students on Newberg campus
Learning Support Services is recruiting two or three graduate students to work as academic mentors for high-risk students on the Newberg campus during the spring 2021 semester.
Academic mentors generally work seven to 10 hours per week, and are paid current minimum wage. Students can find more details and application information on the HandShake position posting. The position is open to any George Fox graduate student. Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
Past academic mentors have commented on how much they grew through the experience, especially through their one-on-one sessions with high-risk students. The role is not a formal counseling role, but has similarities that can be especially helpful for graduate students who will be entering helping professions.
