- [00:00:00.510]I think the most transformational
- [00:00:01.800]has been the peer mentor position
- [00:00:03.300]for the learning communities.
- [00:00:04.740]It's allowed me to work with students
- [00:00:06.565]in a much deeper, personal environment than I have before.
- [00:00:11.400]And it's been a lot of fun.
- [00:00:14.340]It's allowed me to apply what I've learned in my classes.
- [00:00:17.610]And just in other leadership positions I've held

- [00:00:22.050]that's I have a pretty small group,
- [00:00:23.790]I've got about 12 students.
- [00:00:24.870]And so we've formed a pretty close-knit group
