This course will provide upper class Social Science majors with the opportunity of mentoring two or three first year social science majors during their first semester at Lasell. The student counselors will meet with a faculty member once every two weeks to plan activities for the students they are mentoring during the week in between meetings. They will meet with their tutees in the planned activity every other week. The student counselors will evaluate each activity, and at the end of the semester, write a summative evaluation reflecting on the mentoring process and making recommendations for improving the experience. One goal will be to develop a portfolio of activities and interactions that help first year students evaluate the match between themselves and the major and become identified with the social science department academically.
