Upcoming Events

Did you know that January is National Mentoring Month? In our attempt to highlight the importance of mentoring, we would like to encourage you to nominate a faculty, staff our student for the Magical Mentor Award.  Mentoring is a seamless part of our work and effective mentors are not often recognized for the service and support they provide to others.   Mentors have a significant role in creating the engaging educational environment that supports all of our students.  Mentors serve as positive role models, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and provide opportunities for students to develop personal and professional skills.

We need your help to identify those individuals who actively and consistently encourage the growth and development of our UNC Charlotte community through their investment in students.   All nominees will be recognized at the annual  “Mentoring Works” reception on January 28, 2010.
