to help encourage communication between first-year students.
If you have a question or concern, seek out one of the

The Peer Mentors are sophomores
and juniors at UM. They are the front line of resources and
experience who are especially ready and available to help
incoming students transition to the university.

away from home, and answering UM specific questions. They plan
and implement special programs throughout the year and participate
in the MCSP Programming Board activities and programs.
