Peer Facilitators

The facilitators engage in facilitating classroom discussions and outside-of-class workshops. Facilitation is a process in which a trained and experienced student plans, develops, and conducts structured and effective peer interactions that produce a clear result that is commonly understood and supported by all participants. SM Peer Facilitators are given the option to select academic credit or financial compensation for this experience. This position is approximately 5-10 hours per week. Applications open at the end of each semester.
