During Fall 2020, alumni interested in sharing their experiences and providing guidance to students registered to become Alumni BigSibs! The TJ Partnership Fund partnered with the BigSibs program to give TJ seniors the chance to have an alumnus as a mentor throughout the year.

Alumni and seniors were assigned a ‘Sib’ based on answers to the questions in their respective registration forms.
