What makes a great mentor? Someone who helps us when we are stuck, encourages us when we are excelling, and provides a sounding board when we need one. Mentors provide a new perspective on situations with a fresh set of eyes. Jake Horne founded The Student Compass to support young adults as they prepare to transition to our ever-changing and transforming new world.
