New students always have many questions, and we feel that you can be a valuable partner in helping them navigate their first steps at Purdue and the College of Science. We are asking you to participate in an email exchange with a first-semester student.
If you participate in this program, you will be required to exchange four or five emails beginning in July through the 2nd week of classes. Entering students will be informed that this is an email-only relationship.
Your role will be to respond to questions about your major, the College of Science, and Purdue in general. You will not be expected to answer any questions about academic requirements and if you find your freshman partner has any, please refer him/her to their advisor.
If you would like to be a part of this program, please fill out the survey HERE.
It’ll look great on your resume!
Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions.
Thank You,
Terry
