PEER LEADERS

Each class has a UM student serving as your Peer Leader. Peer Leaders will help answer any questions you have along the way, aid class lectures, and help inform you of campus events and UM opportunities.
Throughout the semester, you will encounter a range of issues, both philosophical and practical, to strengthen your academic growth and professional readiness.
  • Study Strategies and Time Management Skills

  • Helpful Career Skills and Resources
  • Learn more about faculty in each Department, and how each department works (this wording is a bit weird)
