Peer Mentors

  • The role of the Connections Leadership Program Peer Mentor is an important one in the success and development of students of color at Seattle University. Peer Mentors will have primary responsibility for implementing the Connections Leadership Program (CLP), a signature program for development of committed, connected leaders of color who possess an awareness of self, group, and community, and who are empowered to effect sustainable change.

    Peer Mentors are involved in the important work of student of color retention. Serving as guides, advisors, and friends, they play a vital role in how students of color engage the campus community and establish avenues for academic success.

    Applications are due March 5th, 2013 by 5:00 pm. Download the application here or pick it up in the OMA Office.

    Mentor Philosophy I think it's important to emphasize being a servant leader. Being their for whatever your mentees and letting them know that you are there for them. And you might not be able to guide them through everything but having that feeling that they can turn to you at any point in the year even beyond the first year is really what I try to aim for. A sense of community.
