Shadow Mentor Day!

The University of Oregon ASLA Student Chapter is pleased to announce the twenty-ninth annual Shadow Mentor Day on Friday, February 18th.

This year’s Shadow Mentor Day will be a hybrid setting on Zoom and in Eugene. For one day, students are offered the experience to shadow a professional, choosing from the many opportunities the landscape architecture field offers. A learning experience for students and practicing landscape architects alike, this event has always been a great success made possible by the support of professionals.

Sign up for the 29th Annual Shadow Mentor Day!

This year’s event is a little different due to Covid-19 – we are splitting the day into two parts. The morning session will be a series of zoom breakout sessions with students and professionals, followed by the afternoon session which will involve in-person tours led by professionals at sites around Eugene.

Please let us know if you are interested in participating in either part of the day by filling out the survey link below by Friday, January 28th. Feel welcome to include information such as areas of concentration and values in the survey. This will be helpful when students request mentors and will be useful to pair students and professionals with similar interests. You may also include any special requests in your response.

We hope you will participate in this important event. If you are unable to join us this year, or know of another practitioner who would like to participate, we encourage you to forward this email and survey link.

Thank you for your interest – your generosity facilitates the invaluable experience of learning in the field from active professionals. The UO Student Chapter will confirm your participation soon after registering, and will follow up with information in early February with day-of details.
