Fall Term Meetings Scheduled

Posted on by sharece
Hello Peer Mentors!
I hope you’re having a fantastic week!
I wanted to let you know that I have scheduled our peer mentor meetings for the remainder of fall term. Joe – they’re on Wednesdays! But they’re starting at 6:30 PM so that I can come from another important meeting I have those days! The meetings will be on October 4, October 18, November 5, and November 29. You’ll see this updated on the Syllabus as well! And I will add locations to the Syllabus as soon as they’re confirmed!
Additionally, the Peer Mentor Check In form and page is updated! Make sure to fill it out by Sunday night! 🙂
If you’re having any issues contacting your mentees or want additional guidance, please feel free to email me!
Have a great day!
Best,
Sharece M. Bunn

Thanks for Training!

Hi mentors!

Last Friday, we had a great training with new and returning mentors! It was great to see you connect to one another and discuss your culture and experiences!

In case you want to review the things we talked about, here is a PDF of the PowerPoint we used during our training: [embeddoc url=”https://blogs.uoregon.edu/intlpmp/files/2017/09/IPMP-Training-Fall-2017-xmx3lk.pdf” download=”all” viewer=”google” ]

Also, I wanted to share the Ted Talks with you that we watched during training.

First, we had Pellegrino Riccardi talking about Cross Cultural Communication:

And then, we had Canwen Xu share, “I Am Not Your Asian Stereotype.”

Feel free to share the resources as you feel necessary.

Also, I’ll be emailing you later this week to let you know our training dates for the rest of fall. And, please email intlpeers@uoregon.edu as you decide when you’d like to schedule your 1-1. I suggest you look to weeks 3-5, if possible! 🙂

Have a great day!

Best,
