Life as a Calvin student can be challenging. The majority of your time is spent attending class, studying, and building friendships--all in the hopes that in several years you will emerge, degree in hand, ready to pursue your calling.

But, what happens between your first convocation and commencement? Perhaps you changed your major, lost a loved one, or became passionate about a new issue. How does one navigate all of this change, and still continue to grow as a Christian?

A mentor can be a source of tremendous support, challenge, encouragement, and vision during your time at Calvin. Students who have been mentored by Calvin faculty/staff can attest to the benefit. Sometimes you just need someone outside of your family, friends, and major to listen and speak into your life. Take the time to utilize the Mentoring Office. You will be amazed at the delight that can come from sharing the journey with a disciple of Christ.
