The Peer Mentor Program begins during orientation and continues through the end of the spring semester. This program eases the transition of new students to LVC. The primary goals of the program are for new students to succeed socially and academically, to ensure that each new student has an upper-class student from whom they can seek assistance, and to help students become well acquainted with other new students.
New and transfer students will be assigned to a group composed of approximately 15 other students who will more than likely share the same major. Every group will be led by a Peer Mentor (PM), an upper-class student who has displayed leadership ability and a willingness to assist new students during their first year of college. These PMs will serve as positive role models and acquaint all new students with LVC's structure, services and culture.
You will meet your Peer Mentor for the first time on Saturday, August 23. You should find your PM to be very helpful in easing your transition into life at Lebanon Valley College. Your PM is looking forward to meeting you and urges you to take advantage of his or her services. If you have any questions about the Peer Mentor Program, please contact Brooke Donovan, Associate Director of Student Activities at 717-867-6168 or through email at donovan@lvc.edu.
