Mentorship:

Students Raising Students is a collaborative effort between GLOW, GSEC, and other Jackson School student groups.

The Students Raising Students (SRS) organization aims to unify all students in the Jackson School of Geoscience through a multi-tier mentorship program and a volunteer listing for community-wide outreach opportunities. SRS will bring together new undergraduate, late career undergraduate, new graduate and late career graduate students so that we may sustain a self-supportive mentorship chain. The organization will continue to support the efforts of GeoForce by fundraising money to continue outreach to the 8th-12th grade students in the greater Texas area.

For more information or learn about how to get involved, please visit the SRS website or email srsjsg@gmail.com.
