Existing models of mentorship do not adequately describe the specific relationshipbetween the college and high schools students: (1) Due to the proximity in both age andexperience, the college students cannot be considered more experienced (traditional model ofmentorship) and (2) Due to the fact that both student populations are in different educationalsystems, the college students cannot be considered peer mentors. To help understand thisalternative mentoring relationship, this study was guided by two research questions:1) Whatmotivates PFP participants to become mentors to high school students? 2) What do theseundergraduate students learn by mentoring high school students?
