SGF Society Mentor Program

If you would like to participate in the SGF Society Mentor Program for this coming academic year, please email SGF@ku.edu.

Serving as a Society Mentor is a great way to support the current Fellows as they explore career opportunities. Pairings between current Fellow mentees and Society mentors will occur in September, providing a connection point for the 2021-2022 academic year.

This past year, with help from SSF Board of Governor’s President Mary Krause, the Fellows were also provided with a Mentee Guidelines handout to help them lead the partnership and maximize the opportunity. This handout outlined mentee expectations including setting and managing meetings, potential topics to discuss, and instructions for bringing goals to the conversation.

Self Graduate Programs regularly posts spotlights about members of the Society of Self Fellows on our social media as a way to showcase the great work our alumni are doing.

If you have previously been paired with a Fellow, that pairing effectively expires at the end of each academic year. The communication to Fellows is that new pairings are assigned each academic year; however, the former pairing now holds as a known connection and lasting network.
