The way WildStang chose their mentor when I was on the team was by ballot. We had a piece of paper with every mentor (and trust me there were a lot) on it and had the mentors come in and introduce themselves. The students then chose their mentor anonymously and wrote a small sentence as to why they chose them.

When I was on the team we would tally the nominees and then use the comments as a base for the essay itself. I've used this format in other organizations and it has worked really well.

The coolest thing that we did was keep who we nominated a secret so the nominee would not know they were chosen until, as Al stated, they were either announced as WFFA winners or at our ceremony in May.

If you need help or ideas please PM me and I would be more than happy to help you guys out!
