—Additional information—

Hosted by the School of Public Health Diversity Committee, Critical Voices is a quarterly event committed to supporting diversity in the SPH by highlighting student, staff, faculty, and community learning opportunities that represent a wide spectrum of cultural, ethnic, and disciplinary perspectives. Our upcoming panel event, Got Mentors? will promote dialogue on topics of faculty mentoring, peer mentoring, and the importance of mentorship as it relates to building a diverse and supportive community of scholars. Good mentoring can make the difference when recruiting and retaining diverse students, and plays a vital role in helping students become marketable graduates. With good mentoring, a student is prepared to enter his or her profession not only with requisite disciplinary knowledge and skills but also with an understanding of the pathways to success and the self-reliance to embark upon them with confidence. Got Mentors? will provide vital tools to aid faculty and students in creating successful mentor relationships.

Interested in some personal one-on-one mentorship with some real med students at UW School Of Medicine?

APAMSA (Asian/Pacific Islander Association of Medical Students) is offering a rare opportunity to have a personal medical student mentor who you can ask questions to, meet with and be friends with! Our goal is to build a pipeline for pre-med students who identify as Asian/ Pacific Islander to connect with UWSOM and better equip themselves for their career aspirations.

Minimum requirement for mentorship is to meet with mentor at least 1/ quarter, but we are hoping for mentorship to be a lasting long-term relationship, through which undergrad/pre-med students can build a relationship with medical students of a similar background.

The application is a brief (15-20 minute) survey that gives us a little background to help us better pair you with a mentor from UWSOM.

Please only submit serious inquiries!

The Q center is connecting UW students (mentees) who are exploring their sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression with queer UW students, staff, faculty, and alumni (mentors) who have been there, can relate to, and have tips for living a happy and fulfilling life.
