MBC 101
Advising
All new students receive a faculty advisor and a staff mentor during their
first year at MBC. Faculty advisors help you with your registration each
term and are available to meet with you during weekly office hours or by
appointment. Students usually keep their faculty advisor for two years or
until they declare a major. If you want to change your advisor during that
time, you may discuss the change with the registrar.
In addition to the faculty advisor, every new student also has a staff mentor.
This individual is a staff member on campus who teaches the MBC 101 orientation
class throughout the fall semester with the help of an upper class student
peer advisor. Both are there to assist in making the transition to Mary Baldwin
as easy as possible.
Be sure to get to know your academic advisor, staff mentor, and peer
advisors. They will be a great support for you.
