8. SCHOLARSHIP MENTORS DISCUSSION
Description:
We had received the update from one of the recipients and her success had a large part to due with her mentor.  The discussion to have is whether the group can commit to being a mentor.  Christine was a mentor to only one student and mentored her through 4 years.  We have 8 - 12 recipients each year and for those who receive the Urke or the St. John scholarship would mean that Brenda and Russ mentor several at the same time.  Can we commit fully to this?
