L.E.G.A.C.Y.
(LEADING EMPOWERED GENERATIONS ACTIVELY AND CHEERFULLY YEARLY)
Alumni Mentor Program for First Year Students
OVERVIEW
The WUAA L.E.G.A.C.Y. Alumni Mentor Program is a link between first year students and alumni.
PURPOSE
Wilberforce Alumni are a community of the best professionals in the world. They have professional experiences that range from entrepreneurship to wall street. The L.E.G.A.C.Y. Program connect alumni to first-year students to provide mentorship. Alumni provide guidance as a mentor, by establishing a relationship, helping students successfully navigate college, and facilitating networking opportunities for successful access to internships and career exploration. Alums will also empower and encourage their mentee, through positive affirmations and by connecting with them through their own personal life experiences.
Program participants will benefit from this opportunity through proactive communication from both parties and the exchange of information on education, professionalism, aspirations, and ideas. In addition to the personal interactions, there will be opportunities to interact with your mentor during scheduled events throughout the school year (New Student Orientation, Homecoming, Dawn Dance).
