PACE Multicultural Mentorship Program
PACE Multicultural Mentorship Program
The PACE Multicultural Mentorship Program is a year-long program designed for first-year students of color.
PACE is an acronym that stands for Preparation, Awareness, Community, and Engagement. The goal of the program is to prepare students for their college experience at Augustana; help students have awareness of their own identity and others; build a supportive community and encourage engagement with each other and Augustana.
PACE participants have the option of participating in a First-Year Inquiry course, "Introduction to the Liberal Arts" together. If you are interested, please let us know when you register for PACE.
