Mentoring: minorities
What is this about?
A graduate student from a minority background is studying at a good university. She struggles however due to insufficient intensive courses at her undergraduate university. Her grades are not great.
A faculty member asks the sutdent to participate in meeting aimed at recruiting minority students for the university's graduate program.
The student is in doubt, because on the one hand she feels flattered, but on the other hand she is afraid that her coursework will suffer.
