Roles at Dominican University

For the past two years I've attended Dominican, I have had the fantastic opportunity to become a University-Wide Peer Mentor. As a Peer Mentor, I embody leadership and help students by guiding them through a successful college experience. Being a Peer Mentor at Dominican has given me long-lasting relationships with my mentees. I witnessed their growth and became someone they could approach during their hardships. Peer Mentors are also given the opportunity to co-facilitate a Navigating College course new students can take during their first semester at Dominican. 

A Nursing Peer Mentor at Dominican University is a leadership role where nursing students help other nursing students excel through the program and offer any assistance needed for them to succeed. Last semester, I was able to provide study tips and advice on course scheduling to a group of my nursing mentees. Being a Nursing Peer Mentor has helped me become a role model and provide endless support and understanding to my nursing mentees. 

I have been a part of the Honors Program since Freshman year at Dominican and it has greatly enhanced my academic experience. Dominican's Honors Program helps students who are dedicated to achieving exceptional academic goals and passions. The Honors Program also focuses on diversity and inclusion through its cross-cultural component where students learn to engage with difference.
