March to College Day Update

Greetings Mentors,

I hope you all are having a great semester. As you know, March to College Day will be held on Thursday, March 10th. In order for us to have a successful event it will take a collaborative effort from all of us! On March to College Day, we invite 15 of the students that we assist at Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School, to come to Georgia State and experience college life.

Since this event will be held on Thursday, I know you guys will have classes throughout the day. What we are asking of our mentors is for you to participate when you are available. Below I have posted the Itinerary for M2CD. Please email me back and let me know which events you will be participating in. Also, if you are not able to attend any of the events, please let me know. I look forward to hearing from all of you.
