Connect to and develop networks that empower you to thrive at Lamar University and beyond.
Cardinal Communities (CC) provides individual and group mentoring for first time in college students. Each CC group consists of 35 students, a peer mentor and a faculty/staff mentor based on their meta major. CC students gain information and build networks by connecting to fellow LU students, campus resources and services, their major/academic department, student organizations and more.
I enjoy the Cardinal Communities meet up. It's nice to be a part of a group of people who can help you.
Peer mentors make their students feel cared for (mental and physical health) and inspire their students with positive words of affirmation.
My peer mentor makes being an ASL major fun! She reassured me that I made the right decision in my major.
