When my seminar stated that I needed a mentor for the class, this guys name was first on the list. We're meeting today to discuss my next semester, so the questions and thoughts were helpful. I'm currently reading Foster's "Celebration of Discipline." Do you think it is odd to just go up to someone you know and say (as Foster does throughout the book), "Teach me everything you know about _______ (topics include prayer, fasting, and meditation)"?

It sounds like a real benefit for your seminary to have mentors as a core value. Great post, reading it made me write something about mentors on my blog.
