Mentoring

ISSO has an extensive network of faculty mentors who provide students with guidance on their academic work, future goals, prospects for graduate education, and facilitating their college experience. We have 20 hours of faculty time any given week. Faculty mentors hold different academic skills and share their expertise and leadership skills with students in the form of consultations, workshops, and mentoring.
