“Experience shows UMSL students truly benefit from exposure to prosperous mentors and a broadened scope of possibilities. Interestingly, sometimes students just seek support of successful graduates to hear the message that overcoming hardships they face will pay dividends. Mentors benefit by the good feeling of giving something back and the reminder that their UMSL education has in fact proven invaluable toward their achievements. Enormous benefits for everyone involved with such modest effort."
-David Adam, J.D., M.A.C.C., UMSL Alumnus ‘81, ‘93, mentor
“My mentor taught me how to communicate effectively with other business professionals. He truly wanted me to succeed, and he opened many doors to my future.”
-Lindsay Jakul, UMSL Alumna ’07, former student participant
