How should we live together? Joining a new community at college, this core question calls us to live thoughtfully with others, and more than that, it calls us to contemplate what the word “relationship” means. A relationship is the state of being connected. The intention of the Office of Disability and Access’ Peer Mentor Program is to facilitate relationships within the Ursinus community, joining pairs of students who may find a connection. The program works to join mentors who want to give back to their community, having experienced their own uncertainty or hardship during their first year, with mentees who are concerned about navigating the social aspects of college.
