Peer Mentor Program
Attention all second year SSS students! Have you heard about our new Peer Mentor program? With our new program, we want to get students more involved in their majors and on campus. Want to go to a club but don't want to go alone? Get a Peer Mentor! This program is not like learning groups, it is much more flexible, it's more one-on-one and you'll meet about twice a month. Also, if you are an active participant in the program, you could be eligible for the second year scholarship!
For any questions or inquiries, please contact:
Brooke McCanna (mccanb41@uwosh.edu)
