Reynolds is committed to the success of our students. To support this commitment, the college is starting a new mentoring program called REAL Men: Resilient, Educated, African-American Leaders. Although any Reynolds student can apply to REAL Men, many of the topics and activities will be about the issues facing African-American men.
