Alumni Mentor Program (AMP)

Many students make the transition from being an undergraduate or graduate student to becoming an alumni. On October 25, 2007, BAS launched a pilot alumni mentoring program to assist students with professional and career development. BAS partnered with Multicultural Student Affairs and the Peer Mentor Program to select students for the pilot.
