The UCCS Student Multicultural Affairs Mentorship Program encourages community among diverse students, faculty, staff and alumni through quality mentoring partnerships and academically empowering and culturally affirming group activities. The program pairs a mentor and 1-4 student mentees who meet both individually and as a team in an informal setting at least twice a month.
In addition, if you are a graduate of the College of Business and would like to mentor a business student, so you can do so through the College of Business Mentoring program. Any College of Business alumnus can become a mentor; just contact Kellie Mangino to sign up. All students are asked to list their area(s) of interest and their major on our sign up sheet. Each mentor also lists his or her degree(s) so that students are paired with mentors from the same field.
The Alumni Board is a select group of volunteers consisting of representatives from each college at UCCS. The Board works with the Office of Alumni Relations to develop long-term alumni strategies, to increase participation in alumni events, and to improve the benefits available to UCCS alumni.
Purchase Alumni Items at the UCCS Bookstore
You don't have to come to campus to show your support. Visit the UCCS Bookstore's website to purchase alumni clothing, stickers, and diploma frames and support your alma mater.
Purchase Commemorative Paver Stones
Commemorate the past and participate in the future of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs by purchasing a paving stone. Have your name inscribed in history for all to see! Pavers will be placed in the plaza in front of Columbine Hall.
Pavers make excellent gifts for graduation, birthdays, retirements and Christmas. You can also honor or provide a memorial for a friend, relative or professor.
Look your best for photo radar: order your CU license plates today! All donations made to the license plate program support the Alumni Scholarship Fund and contribute to student success at UCCS.
