Dear WISE Community Members,
Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) is currently recruiting community and professional mentors to participate in our college and pre-college mentoring programs. The mentoring program will allow students interested in your chosen fields to learn from you and share your excitement and passion for your area of study.
WISE has created a new format for our Mentoring Program this year: rather than having WISE staff create mentoring pairs, we will post mentors’ profiles online for high school students to browse and pick a college student and/or professional mentor to shadow for a day. WISE will not post mentors' contact information online; high school students interested in being matched with a mentor will contact WISE staff, who will assist with the match-up.
Remember that junior high and high school students will be reading your profile in addition to college age students, so try to keep it (somewhat) short and interesting! We recommend including a photo of yourself, as that helps personalize the profile (but it is not required). Please send your profile information and photo to sbs-wisemup@email.arizona.edu.
For further assistance on what to write for your personal profile please go to: http://wise.web.arizona.edu/content/mentor_information
If you were a WISE Mentor 2010-2011, and would like to use your profile from last year; please email us at: sbs-wisemup@email.arizona.edu and we will post your profile from last year on our webpage!
The deadline to become a mentor ends September 16, 2011 at 12:00 AM. We look forward to hearing from you and are so excited for another great year of mentoring!

Thank you,
