Dear Students:

Every April, the University of Southern California recognizes faculty with the USC MELLON MENTORING AWARDS-- a program supported by the Provost. These awards honor individual faculty and programs for efforts in building an effective academic environment through demonstrated excellence in and commitment to mentoring.

We invite you to nominate USC faculty members for recognition as exceptional mentors in one of the following categories:
