Â鶹´«Ã½ is dedicated to Â鶹´«Ã½ success. As a result, every first-year and transfer Â鶹´«Ã½ is assigned an established WMU Â鶹´«Ã½ as an eMentor to aid in each Â鶹´«Ã½â€™s transition to WMU’s campus and the community. The information and support provided by Peer2Peer eMentors is designed to help these Â鶹´«Ã½s to:
- Access university resources
- Explore and engage in university life
- Make connections on campus
- Succeed academically and professionally
How the Program Works
Incoming Broncos will be connected to their eMentors during the first week of fall semester. Through electronic and digital communication, eMentors will provide information about resources available at WMU, events that can optimize Â鶹´«Ã½s' campus experience, and other information and support that will enable Â鶹´«Ã½s to more easily acclimate to life and learning at Â鶹´«Ã½. Peer2Peer eMentors will share real and relevant tips for being a successful Â鶹´«Ã½ at WMU.
Encouraging incoming Â鶹´«Ã½s to create a good school-life balance, eMentors will stress not only the academic deadlines and strategies for academic success, but also techniques in self-care and Â鶹´«Ã½ to engage across campus and in the community. Peer2Peer eMentors are here to encourage Â鶹´«Ã½s to create an academic strategy that works for them and to share Â鶹´«Ã½ and events that offer social connections best suited to each Â鶹´«Ã½s' passions and values. The Peer2Peer program is here to help ensure that incoming Â鶹´«Ã½s have access to the tools that will enable them to make the most out of their experience at WMU, while still making the grade! eMentors work to ensure each new Â鶹´«Ã½ feels connected and supported.
