Peer Advising Program

The Peer Advising program was estab– lished in 1998. Peer Advisors are juniors and seniors who have completed a semester– long training course in Psychology. Peer advisors provide friendly, supportive and non-judgemental assistance to students who may be experiencing difficulty in the transi– tion to college, with academic course work, or in their personal lives . The program, which is housed in the Student Resource Center, is a collaborative effort, coordinated by Dr. Michael Ichiyama in the Department of Psychology with the cooperation of the Dean's Office of Arts and Sciences, Counsel– ing Center, and Student Resource Center.
