I'm excited for the opportunity to mentor undergraduates as a Faculty/Staff Mentor in the new "Identity and Vocation" course for all new students! I just had a meeting this afternoon where we discussed the content. To my delight, even Theology of Work is on the list! I'm excited because 1) I think it will be very helpful, maybe even life-changing, for the students; and 2) I get to practice being faculty, in a small group setting. :) Perfect! And as if that weren't enough there is even some financial compensation. Hmm, I'd probably pay to do this.
There is so much that teaching and mentoring have in common... especially, the capacity to listen. This is something I'd like to see strengthened in my life.
