I am the coordinator of Project Bridging Cultures. I started working as a mentor in the fall of 2006, and it has been a remarkable experience seeing this program grow and evolve during the past thirteen months.
While I have been writing the entries on this blog during the past several weeks, my perspective is just one among many. From our downtown offices, Amanda keeps watch over the program with great diligence and care. The mentors--Pete, Oumar, Steve, Mary, and Amy--are energetic and dedicated in working with students and connecting with them. Still other people have stopped by to visit or volunteer.
In the next few entries, I will be posting some of their experiences in their own words.
