Class schedule and student number are required. Services are available to varying degrees at Midland Center and Ricker Center. The Peer Mentor Program assigns to a class. The Mentor's role is one of facilitating student learning by serving as a model student, exhibiting successful student behaviors and providing experiences that assist student learning.
Mentors provide strategies for learning course content, vocabulary, and methods of inquiry.
Study sessions are at least once each week to help students reinforce learned information. Faculty who wish a peer mentor need to contact the Peer Mentor Coordinator, provide names of possible peer mentors, and attend an orientation session. Students wishing to be Peer Mentors should contact the faculty member to whom they wish to be assigned, contact the Peer Mentor Coordinator, fill in the paperwork, and attend required orientation and training sessions. Every Peer Mentor must attend at least four hours of training before working with students in this capacity. Peer Mentors are paid for their service.
