The SBA Mentor Program

The SBA Speaker Series

Orientation Programming

The mentor program is a series of events that begin in the fall and go through the entire year focusing on building relationships between first year law students and upper level students.  Beginning in orientation and ending at the end of the year, there are focused events on substantive issues, like outlining and studying for finals, to fun events, like the Portland Pirates and pizza parties---all to make the transition into law school more palatable for new students and build community amongst the different classes.  Upper level students are asked to reach out to their "mentees" throughout the year, with much of the effort focused on the fall at most lending ear to the concerns and issues facing the new 1L.  If you are interested in volunteering for the 2003-2004 mentor program, email:  Martha Bullock, the chair of the SBA Outreach Committee.
