The UPA is getting ready to start our Peer Mentorship Program this fall and we are in need of mentors! Mentors can be general mentors, who answer questions about courses, psychology-related questions, and are there as a general helping hand for the transition into the department or to university in general. There is also an opportunity to be a tutor who tutors student(s) in classes that they have taken and been successful in prior. This is a great opportunity to get involved, gain leadership experience, and give back to your school community. Please fill out the google form to sign up and contact our VP Volunteers at silkinma@ualberta.ca with any questions.
