Faculty/Staff Mentors serve an integral role in Dawg Camp Programs. Each year, UGA faculty and staff members serve as mentors during Dawg Camp and have the opportunity to interact with incoming students. Our campers greatly appreciate this opportunity to get to know faculty and staff members, ask questions, and seek advice about their first year at UGA. This is a cost-free experience for those selected as faculty/staff mentors.
