Sophomore Year Experience: Departmental Peer Advisors
A New Resource for Sophomores
There are a variety of sources of information about the various academic departments and the major programs within each department. These include, but are not limited to: departmental faculty, student majors, department web sites, and the Haverford College Catalog. We urge you to use all of the resources at your disposal.
That said, it has been suggested that some students might prefer or find it easier to have a first conversation with a fellow student about a particular department and the major. Intended to supplement, but not supplant, the information sources noted above, a new program, designed expressly for sophomores, has been put into place: Departmental Peer Advisors. These are junior or senior majors who have been selected by their respective departments to serve as peer sources of information about the department, the major program and its requirements, and the major experience.
