Peer Mentor Q&A

Name: Meredith Beck

Year in school: Junior

Where you’re from: Maryland

How long you have been a peer mentor? 2 Years

Why did you become a peer mentor?

I became a peer mentor because my peer mentor did not help me transition to HPU. I was homesick a lot and she was never helpful in making me feel welcome and better about being away at college. I was also very shy at first, so making friends was hard and I always felt like she made no effort into helping me transition at all. I knew that I did not want that feeling to happen to future freshman so I knew I wanted to help.

What is the best part of being a Peer Mentor?

The best part is all of the people you get to meet. From freshman to even kids in my own grade, it’s just another way to meet people and establish contacts with people around campus. I also like seeing the entire freshman class get excited about being in college.

What is the hardest part of being a Peer Mentor?

The hardest part about being a peer mentor is getting the freshman to take you seriously. They all think that the only reason you are there is to boss them around and tell them what to do, when in reality we are trying to get them out of their dorm and make friends. I always tell mine that I am a student too so I understand how busy and hard it is sometimes to get to events or not want to do things.

If you were to go back and do your college all over again, would you become a Peer Mentor?

Definitely! While at times this job is consuming it is also rewarding when you get those surveys back from parents and the freshman and they say how great you are as a Peer Mentor. I love knowing that I have made a difference in one freshman’s experience. Even if it is just one my job has been a success.

How do you get matched with your Mentees?

They match them sometimes randomly but other times with freshman that have similar interest to yours so you can better interact and understand them. I know the first time I was a peer mentor it went alphabetically and really only connected with one of them, but now that its more tailored to interests it helps a lot.
