Goals

The VISION Peer Mentoring Program is a service offered by the Bolinga Black Cultural Resources Center to first year African and African American students who would like to improve their chances of success by having a successful, returning, Wright State University student serve as their guide. The students are matched early in the school year according to major, interests, hometown and other insightful data. The program has existed on campus for ten years and continues to attract informed students and their support networks.

Purpose
