Residential Peer Tutoring

The Residential Peer Tutoring program was developed in Fall 2010 as part of the First Year Experience so students could receive tutoring and academic assistance in the student lounges of their residence halls. A Residential Peer Tutor (RPT) is assigned to live and tutor in each hall. In addition to tutoring their residents and off-campus students, the RPTs help in developing and monitoring residential tutoring and its corresponding workshops and programs. You'll find other peer tutors working in the lounges too!

The Student Lounges in Juniper and Pine Halls are open to non-resident and commuter students.

Meet the 2011-12 RPTs!
