About Our Mentors

Our Rams in Q’mmunity Mentors are dedicated student leaders here to support your personal well-being and academic success at CSU. As students in their 2nd+ year, they’re equipped to connect you with vital resources and provide event invites for Pride programs. Think of them as a friendly face to catch up with and a reliable source of support throughout your time here. 

You will be matched with a Pride Family Mentor based on shared academic and social interests. Your connection with your mentor is flexible and student-driven – whether you prefer casual check-ins or deeper conversations. 

Your Pride Family Mentor is committed to building a lasting and supportive connection during your time at CSU. 

Time Commitment

Required time commitment expectations:   

  • Attend required bi-weekly 1 hour Pride Family Meetings facilitated by your peer mentor. This will provide opportunity to connect with other students in the program. The timing is decided by your group’s availability.
  • Attend two required 1:1 sessions with your mentor at the start and middle of the semester. 

Flexible time commitment: 

Pride Mentors will announce opportunities for students to engage in retreats, programs and other campus events. Students are encouraged to attend 1-2 events per semester.  

Pride Family Meetings

Pride Family Meetings will occur regularly throughout the semester, such as bi-weekly for an hour. These meetings will be a mix of learning something new, creating crafts, and being in community with others in and out of the program.
