Located on the first floor of Lincoln Hall through the lounge space. Questions? Email lashub-peermentors@illinois.edu.

The Paul M. Lisnek LAS Hub is a space for students to find the support and resources you'll need throughout your undergraduate experience. The Hub, located behind the marble staircase in Lincoln Hall, welcomes students to learn about experiential learning from peers and professionals in an informal setting. This is accomplished through:

  • Peer Mentoring: Learn about student organizations, volunteer opportunities, community engagement, internships, and research opportunities. Prepare necessary materials to get involved (e.g., resumes, cover letters, applications).
  • Drop-in Advising: Meet with professionals from LAS Career Services and LAS Honors

Peer Mentoring

Peer Mentors in the Lisnek LAS Hub are extensively trained and  here to support you. They provide insights to help you gain hands-on experience, including:

  • Identifying internships and jobs, international programs, student organizations, undergraduate research opportunities, and/or volunteer or service roles that fit your interests.
  • Preparing application materials (e.g., resumes, cover letters)
  • Feeling supported and confident to take your next steps
