| Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
| Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Our Peer Advising Program provides leadership opportunities to students who serve as role models to other students. Peer Advisor students greet and support incoming freshmen and promote students' self-sufficiency. |
| Consequences of this initiative not being funded | The College would lose a valuable opportunity to help students connect and learn from model students who are familiar with the expectations of college. Peer Advisors are a great resource that can help other students transition to college and connect with the campus. |
