The utilization of student mentors in Living-Learning (L/L or LLP) Programs has been shown to impact both the mentors and participants. By participating in LLP’s, students and mentors are able to nurture their social and professional development. This mixed methods research study investigated the effects of acting as counselor and mentor in a summer STEM LLP on the development of the social awareness, mentorship skills, and leadership development. Data collection in the form of surveys and focus groups was used to determine the opinions and experiences of Waynesburg University’s CSI Summer Camp mentors.
