Are you a UIC Law/JMLS Alum? Due to a record number of students registering for our Alumni Mentor Program this year, we are in need of some additional Alumni Mentors. Please consider registering if you haven't done so already. The program requires a minimal commitment - just one meeting per month between February and April. It is not necessary to live in Chicago since participants can meet virtually. You and your mentee(s) will coordinate these meetings at your convenience.
