Peer group program seeks student aid Peer Academic Counseling and Evaluation (PACE) is a three-fold program that involves students in peer academic counseling, prog ram committee work and field work in campus organizations connected with academic coun seling. Students who want to become involved in the program must sign up for two classes offered under the College of Education: Seminar in Peer Counseling and Academic Advising and Peer Academic Counseling Practicum. “The program is not in competi tion with faculty advisers, but aids them by putting students in con tact with appropriate faculty members," said Judy Coffey, fa culty adviser. PACE hopes to place students in the Office of Academic Advis ing, Student Services, Learning Resources Center and other of fices serving students. Approximately 12 students have signed up so far, but the staff hopes to attract more participants. The Faculty Advising Commit tee sponsers the program, and program director Karen Gegner said the committee supports the program because of the value of peer advising. Most of the publicity for the program has come from word of mouth, according to Coffey. ‘We can only be as effective as the student body is aware of us," she said. The program is directed by a steering committee composed of six students and a faculty adviser. Future goals of the program in clude publishing a manual on stu dent services and a bulletin of academic tips. Members also hope to provide roving advisers during registration and set up a system to provide counseling to freshman and sophomore dorm residents.
