channel information about MIT's resources and services to their
mentees. They provide advice on aspects of academic, career, and
social life at MIT. When mentors do not have the access to their
mentee's questions or needs, they tap into the Undergraduate
Mentorship Network, which connects all mentors, past and present, in a
campus-wide web of mentorship. Mentors will also attend
UMP-organized social events with their mentees. Please direct
