Jane Uhl

My name is Jane Uhl and I am a senior Business Administration major. I am so excited to be a Chambers Peer Mentor this fall! I chose to study Business Administration because it allows me to study a variety of business functions. I applied for the Chambers Peer Mentor program to exercise my leadership skills. I love college and have an extreme sense of gratitude for WVU. The WVU Chambers College has molded me into a well-rounded business student while providing me with opportunities to capitalize on the skills I have acquired. The Chambers Peer Mentor Program will allow me to help first-year students ease their transition from high school to higher education. It can be nerve-wracking to move out of your comfort zone, but it is essential to embrace change to grow personally and professionally. I am here to make the transition as smooth as possible while providing support to my mentees. Something I wish I knew early in my college career would be not pressuring myself to have everything figured out. It is easy to get wrapped up in planning the future, which is important. However, I never slowed down enough to fully enjoy my present successes. It is okay to not have everything figured out. College is a place to find yourself and what you are truly passionate about. I am so grateful to WVU and the Chambers College for allowing me to study my passion.
