Harcum's Peer Resource Program.
Blai, Boris, Jr.
This paper describes the Peer Resource Program established by Harcum Junior College. It is designed to provide, in addition to professional guidance personnel, student peer leadership and student personnel services to other students. The approach is based on the assumption that adolescents are generally more responsive to peer influences, pressures and controls. The program trained 26 students in communication skills, interpersonal skills, decision-making and group dynamics. The trained students then received resource materials for referral and informational purposes. The students so trained consider themselves mediators between students and faculty. The program has been in operation for one semester and appears to fulfill student needs. (NG)
