Through Ask! program, alumni volunteer as mentors to current students

Almost 600 Western Washington University alumni from 38 states and nine countries have signed up to the school's Ask! program to help Western faculty, staff and students as mentors.

These alumni can:

• Speak in classes or at organizational meetings
• Act as virtual mentors for students
• Provide job shadow and internship experience for students
• Share valuable knowledge they’ve gained since graduating from Western
• Relate to students

Since the Ask! program's launch just over a year ago:

• Students have made more than 3,000 website searches seeking to connect with alumni
• More than a hundred alumni have served as virtual mentors for specific classes at Western
• More than a dozen alumni have come to campus to speak in individual classes

Every college and more than 100 majors are represented by the Ask! mentors. To search the database of Western’s great alumni mentors, visit http://www.wwu.edu/alumni/ask/.
