Starting with orientation weekend in August, first-year mentors are responsible for assisting new students in succeeding personally, socially, and academically through connections to the College and their peers.

New and transfer students are assigned to small groups led by a first-year mentor, an upper-class student with leadership ability and a willingness to assist new students during their first year of college. First-year mentors serve as positive role models and acquaint all new students with LVC’s structure, services, and culture.
