<p>At Blair, you have an assigned Monitor who watches over your academic life. You pick whom would like to be your Advisor during the first 2 months of school. You have to ask the faculty member, who may feel he/she has enough Advisees, so it is not guaranteed that you can have your first choice. Some students even have the Headmaster as an Advisor. You might want to select a science teacher whom you like. The role of Advisor goes beyond your academic life. Your Advisor can become your friend, advocate and mentor.</p>
