One Muhlenberg student's thoughts to share...

The IMPACT Project

 This is my forth semester participating as a mentor in the Impact Program. When I first started it I was unsure what to expect, as the high school students may be shy and uncomfortable being around older college students. I found that the program ran very smoothly, and after having a great experience with my first "mentee" I decided to continue. There are two major reasons that I come back to be a mentor each semester, the first being most important. Although it is often hard to see, it has become clear to me that the students look forward to their Thursday afternoon on a college campus. They have someone to talk to that they know will listen, and I have the same. The second reason is simply because it's fun. I am able to unwind, be myself and spend a couple of hours each week with a new friend. We play basketball, go over homework, do a unique activity with the entire group and have dinner together. There is always a lot of laughter, as well as good conversation. The time flies....not only through each day, but through the entire semester and though I wish I could follow up with the students to see their progress, in some way I know that I have made an impact regardless of whether or not I ever see or talk to them again. Though I participate in attempt to make a local high school student happy for only a few hours a week, little do they know, they have quite an impact on me, as well.
