Previous Conferences

St. Norbert College’s Program of Faith, Learning & Vocation coordinated this opportunity to explore effective ways to mentor students from a vocation perspective. This regional gathering  aimed to bring together NetVUE colleges and universities from the Midwest, to present models of excellence and encourage regional dialogue.  Through panel presentations, workshops and informal dialogue participants explored questions such as:

•    How can we best mentor from a vocation perspective?
•    What are the ethical considerations in mentoring from a vocation perspective?
•    How do we gain mentoring allies among the faculty and staff?
•    How do we infuse vocation into the broader campus culture?
•    How do we know if we succeeded?
