Math peer mentor program

The math department has established an informal peer mentoring system, where junior and senior mathematics majors provide advice and information about the major. They can answer questions about what it’s like to major in mathematics, about our classes, job and research opportunities, summer programs, and so on.

This year, we have five peer mentors: Alex Cohen, Sonali Durham, Diana Halikis, Catherine Lee, and Christopher Xue. They will each serve as a mentor to a group of prospective majors. Every week, one of the mentors will also hold walk-in office hours, where any student can come ask questions about the major or related topics.

Tentatively, all sessions are scheduled to take place in DL 431. We hope to reschedule a few to other locations on campus, and we will keep updating the list accordingly. Before attending a session, please be sure to check back on the site for its location.
