Hello LAHers! As this year is coming to an end we are sending out the mentor applications for next year’s incoming LAH cohort. Becoming a mentor not only looks really great on your resume but also fulfills the leadership requirement to graduate as a distinguished LAH Scholar. There will be awards given out at the yearly banquet for outstanding mentors and other fun events and potential incentives for mentors who consistently meet with their mentees. There are no specific length requirements on the application (1-3 sentences is fine), the questions are just aiming to try to get enough information about mentors so we can best match you with someone compatible.
