LGBTQ+ Mentorship Program
The LGBTQ+ Mentorship Program provides a space for you to meet new people and learn more about the LGBTQ+ community at the University of North Dakota.
Our mentors are out faculty, staff, and graduate students who are comfortable in their identity. They are here to help you navigate campus and get you connected to resources that will help you make the most of your UND experience.
