Having
the opportunity to become a peer mentor is amazing. I am the peer mentor for
STEM Outreach and have received the Huskie Service Scholarship. I am in charge
of mentoring a freshman and a transfer student. Both of them are great to work with
and they are extremely reliable. We all work together to make sure the STEM
office has everything they need. I have participated in STEM Fest and
elementary school events. Everyone in the office is welcoming and easy to talk
to. I go into the office about twice a week and I feel completely comfortable
being there and completing any task they need.
I love being a peer mentor because I
have always had leadership positions. I am huge on community service and I am
also an Elementary Education major. Working for STEM has allowed me to help the
northern community and also gain insight about science experiments and helping
children. I am very proud of everything I have learned and my ability to stay
organized and be a role model for my fellows. I would encourage anyone
interested in becoming a Huskie Service Scholar to do so. It is extremely
rewarding and you make wonderful connections.
