I assisted new freshmen in the FSHN department with their academic transition into CSU during their first (fall) semester of freshman year. I had 4 new freshmen mentees, two majoring in Nutrition and Food Science, one majoring in Hospitality Management, and one majoring in Fermentation Science. As a Mentor, I encouraged engagement in academics and campus involvement. We met at various locations on campus every other week for study sessions. During this time we would also assess any questions, concerns, or thoughts about the many changes they faced during their first semester at Colorado State.
