Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we dive into the powerful impact of informal student-faculty interactions on student success. We explore how these connections boost satisfaction, foster friendships, and help students thrive.Our institution put this research to the test by providing faculty with drink vouchers, encouraging them to connect personally with students. Over a quick soda or coffee, professors and students talk life goals, academic planning, and career aspirations—offering the guidance and mentorship that can make all the difference during the "sophomore slump." Join us as we discuss the heartwarming feedback from students and the lasting benefits of mentorship on their academic, personal, and professional growth.
