Spring 2005 Mentors Announced

It is with great pleasure that we welcome back Ganna Yevtushenko and Laura Ebert as mentors for Spring 2005. Here is a little bit of information about them:

Ganna Yevtushenko Hi everyone! My name is Ganna Yevtushenko and I am Finance major. I am student from Ukraine and this is my second year at St. Thomas. I love to travel and meet people from different countries, so I’m looking forward to getting to know you better. It’s great that you come to St. Thomas in winter, because you will be able to enjoy many of the fun outdoor activities Minnesota is known for, like skiing or snow tubing.
