Owl’s Nest Peer Mentoring

Eight business students stand in a conference room with two students crouching in front of them.
The Merrilee Alexander Kick College of Business and Entrepreneurship Owl’s Nest Peer Mentoring program connects highly engaged and high-performing students with a select group of incoming first-year College of Business freshmen.

This program aims to guide these new students toward a successful collegiate experience. By focusing on improving engagement and exemplifying the day-to-day life of a College of Business student, the Owl’s Nest Peer Mentoring program strives to ensure that students feel included and celebrated during their time on campus.

Mentors and mentees can expect to:

  • Build lifelong friendships and engaging experiences
  • Guide each other on paths to successfully completing their degrees
  • Increase engagement and involvement in the Merrilee Alexander Kick College of Business and Entrepreneurship and TWU
  • Participate in exclusive Owl’s Nest events
  • Positively impact the campus and community
