Student-alumnae mentor network

 

 

The Mount Holyoke Center for the Environment invites alumnae in the field of environmental studies or related fields to share their expertise with MHC students. Mentoring a student can involve informal email exchanges, phone calls, or coffee get-togethers—it’s up to you.

The Center's goal is to develop a network in which alumnae and students can connect about career or graduate school opportunities, life and social choices, personal passions and concerns, and more. Outcomes of the network may include alumnae-student retreats or workshops, internships, community service experiences, or summer jobs. Or the result may be as simple--and as vitally important—as a personal relationship between a student and an alumna centered on a shared passion for the environment.

Please contact us at center-environment@mtholyoke.edu for more information about becoming an alumna mentor or about the many other exciting projects at the Center for the Environment.
