From career based mentoring programs dating back at least three decades to new programs, some specifically centered in the various culturally diverse campus organizations, mentoring across the University of Minnesota Campus is vibrant and growing. Specific programs within most colleges are career oriented and match students with professionals in the specific field of interest. Other programs actively match university students with youth in local schools or provide culturally diverse mentor/mentee relationships in on-campus organizations. Within several co-curricular programs, particularly directed toward leadership development, both peer mentoring and mentoring that matches students with qualified members of the University and outside community emphasize the career and psychosocial elements that have been identified as basic to a mentoring relationship. Beginning with a brief description of the career-based programs, specific co-curricular leadership programs incorporated in the Office of Student Affairs will be explored. Included is a review of recent mentoring research as well as the relationship of University of Minnesota survey results to mentoring program design. Finally, the direct relationship of mentoring with improvements in University proscribed Student Development Outcomes will be shown.
