We're implementing a new peer mentoring initiative within the Political Science department! If you are a lowerclassman, this resource is for you! Your peer mentor can answer questions about classes, clubs, opportunities, and just be a friendly and familiar face within the major. 
 
This initiative is being organized by the BYU Political Affairs Society (the main student club in the political science department). We will coordinate who you mentor based on similar interests and opportunities. We'll also sponsor events where you can connect with other students. One of our main goals with this peer mentoring initiative is to help new poli sci majors make connections with other students in the major. Follow the link below if you'd like to sign up!
