HD MENTORSHIP

HD: Mentorship that Hits Different is a mentorship program designed to support Black, Latinx, and Native American male-identifying students at Davidson College; however all students are welcome to inquire about the benefits of this and other programs sponsored by the Matthews Center for Career Development. HD members will participate in professional development activities, build community, and be matched with Black, Latinx, and Native American male alums based on the students’ fields of interest, professional aspirations, career goals, and more.

We all need mentors -- especially those with shared experiences. The HD mentorship program is designed to create meaningful connections and programming that will help guide you on your professional journey. You need this and you deserve it!
