Editor's Notes
- Alex Good evening everyone! We hope you’re all as excited to be here as I am
- ALEX We’d like to open this up with a question for the audience - can anyone tell me how many grade school students in the city of chicago are a part of underserved public and catholic school systems? - 430,000; that is 430,000 opportunities to make an impact in Chicago alone. When looking at the Egan Office’s current situation, there’s three key questions to ask: -What is the Egan Office? -What is the importance of being an Egan Mentor? -What does a qualified mentor look like? Lack of Awareness of the Egan Office and UECP mission Lack of understanding among DePaul students regarding School Partnerships and Student Mentoring Not enough qualified students applying for Mentor positions

- ALEX 1 in 3 DePaul Students are first-generation college students The second highest number of pre- and post- responses related to mentors’ desires and efforts to form genuine, ongoing relationships with their mentees Kanchewa, 2014 Students tend to agree that their participation in service learning gave them a good understanding of the needs and problems facing society. College Students and Service-Learning Outcomes (Eyler, 1997) 82% of the students indicated increased respect for other opinions 84% indicated an increased confidence in communicating with people of different backgrounds or cultures 83% linked a better understanding of the values of people different than themselves to their service learning experience Generally, As the amount of hours students work increases, the amount they volunteer decreases. An exception to this is those full- time students who also work more than 40 hours per week. These busy, highachieving students somehow still find time to volunteer more than their peers working 26–40 hours. (Kowel, 2007) Mentor outcome expectations can depend on the college students major Education Majors’ expectations: to enhance their learning and gain relevant experience When majors vary: to “help” children in the community
- ALEX Unfortunately, most are unaware of is how much they can learn and how much of an impact they can make right outside their campus. Campus Loneliness and Mentors’ desire to form genuine, ongoing relationships with mentees **WORD CLOUD** – To gain a greater understanding of the world, the people in it and themselves. “I gain a new perspective on things.” – To put their values into action. “I’m concerned about the students I work with.” – To feel important, to form new friendships, to boost their own self-esteem. “Mentoring a child makes me feel needed.” – To satisfy expectations of friends, a spouse or others close to them. “My girlfriend tutors and would be disappointed in me if I stopped doing it too.” – To distract themselves from work or personal problems. “Mentoring allows me to forget about issues at work and at home for a while.” – To explore career options and/or increase the likelihood of pursuing particular career paths. “Mentoring allows me to visibly demonstrate my interest in youth.” – To satisfy a sense of obligation to the community. “I volunteer because I believe that I should give back.”

- TAYLOR Students wearing the branded t-shirts, passing out flyers etc, having students stop by classrooms and share why they enjoy the program. Students are also required to fulfill a community service requirement and this would fulfill that. Through things like Wheel of Fortune, flyers, and increased awareness, and learning about the disparities these communities face, they will be inspired to take action for a greater good.
