2021 Faculty/Administrator Mentors

lle logo

Legacy’s Faculty/Administrator Mentors represent a rich cross-section of the University from virtually every school and college on campus to a host of offices and programs. Our Faculty/Administrator Mentors support student success and leadership in the classroom, the lab, and throughout their involvement on campus. Legacy Mentors actively attend and participate in many Legacy events throughout the year and help students reflect on their experiences as they prepare for a life of leadership beyond UConn. Legacy is proud to partner with such a diverse group of accomplished and committed professionals from across campus.
