Fellows in year three focus on preparing for life after College. They are paired with alumni mentors and are asked to consider not just what they want to be after graduation but also who they want to be. We endeavor to align their values and actions. This year\u2019s third-year Fellows heard from Brandon Randall \u201904<\/strong> about being a good mentor and mentee, spent time with Ferguson Career Center Director Stephanie Joynes<\/strong>, heard from Court Vanzant \u201902<\/strong> about leadership and integrity, and had a discussion with local faith leaders about supporting Afghan refugees in Southside Virginia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fellows in year four also spent time with Brandon Randall \u201904 this semester. They took the strengths finders<\/a> test and worked with Michael Wriston as they discovered their gifts. The Fellows also heard from Hugo Rodriquez \u201988 <\/strong>who asked the Fellows to reflect on their strengths and to find positive ways to interact with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
