A.I.M.M. Pillars
Brotherhood
We define brotherhood as a network and/or group bounded by shared values, principles, attitudes, and beliefs. This brotherhood will positively challenge and empower its members and hold each other accountable.
Leadership
We define leadership in an individual and collective sense, as a person or group with the necessary qualities to be an example in multiple spaces. Leaders develop the ability to persevere and accept others' support and input to work cohesively towards a common goal with integrity.
College & Career Readiness
College and career readiness ensure that students have the translatable tools, skills, and abilities to succeed and excel academically. Students should be able to translate these skills and abilities into their chosen careers.
Health & Wellness
We define health and wellness as promoting healthy and holistic relationships amongst our students, including, but not limited to, students' physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health and well-being.

We promote positive self-identity development by creating safe spaces for students to examine their own experiences and identities and to allow them to express them freely.

Mentor
As a mentor in the program, I have been allowed to mentor a student on campus – and that has been the most rewarding experience. To be there to answer questions or provide motivation or guidance when he needs it makes me feel connected and relied upon. The program is new, but I’m excited to see its growth and impact on the male population here at A&M-SA.
