The Student-Alumni Mentor program was established in 2014 to connect students with alumni. Each year, students (the mentees) and alumni (the mentors) are paired together based on interests, academic disciplines, career interests, and more. 

The pairs are required to meet at least once a month and are given a variety of topics to discuss (e.g., networking, job searching, interview tips, etc.). The program is very flexible, and the pairs may choose their own topic of conversation. While professional development is at the center of the program, sharing Carthage experiences is another beneficial factor.
