Alumni go one-on-one with students
Donna
Tilsner (B.S.,’74), Katie Young, Marcia Bach (M.Ed.,’84),
Carrie Sandelin, and Harvey Feldman (faculty member, recreation
and sport
studies) had fun in Goldy’s Gameroom at the
mentor/student bowling and
pizza party on May 4.
The college’s new mentoring program kicked off in
February. Eleven undergraduate kinesiology students and mentors attended
orientation sessions and learned how mentoring can help them as they
consider career options.
Alumni and friends with careers in parks and recreation,
wellness, corporate fitness, physical education, and physical therapy
worked one-on-one with students during spring semester. Alumni Relations
plans to expand the program for fall
semester 2005. Professionals currently working in the
areas mentioned above, and in training and development, who would like to be mentors may contact the
alumni relations office at 612-626-1601 or
kamin003@umn.edu for additional
information. |
