About Today's Show
Today's episode focuses on the SMILE Mentoring program at Seneca College. Smile is a mentorship program that puts new students in touch with a senior student mentor within a similar program area or identity who can support them in their transition to Seneca.
And our guests today – we have two guests - are both students who participate in the SMILE program in different ways.
Also in this episode, we also talk about:
1. Specifically how the SMILE mentors can help new students really thrive during their time at Seneca College
2. The value of being a mentor, and what it's like to see the huge impact mentors have on the student lives of the people they help.
3. How having a mentor can help new students at Seneca naviage the complexity of life here, and even help manage the stress.
And a lot more...
