SOTA’S MENTOR AND MENTEE PROGRAM
We are starting our official Mentor/Mentee program, a great way for everyone to get to know each other better, build relationships with those you normally
wouldn’t, and learn from experienced students in the OT program!
• Who? All SOTA members can participate! This is a great way to get to know the program if you are an underclassman, and for upperclassmen, it is a great way to give back and get to help others that are where you were a few years ago!
• What? We will be hosting events to facilitate the program, but you are more than welcome to get together more and build friendships that way as well!
• When? Our first official gathering will be next Thursday 9/26 at 6pm! We
will be hosting a scavenger hunt, which is going to be awesome! We will also have refreshments!
• Where? We will be meeting in the courtyard in front of the PHHP building!• Why? This is a great way to get to meet more people in the program,
network, find different opportunities, and really get involved with everyone in the OT program- not just those in your class!=1 social point
T-SHIRTS!
Shirts will be $15 =1 fundraising point
-we are going to preorder shirts, and we are sending around a sign up sheet right now if you are interested in getting a t-shirt!
