We believe that every student can be a leader.
Student Development and Activities has created a full range of leadership development programs and opportunities for MMC students to realize their full leadership potential. Here, students can take advantage of a number of structured leadership programming and get tailored training sessions to fit the needs of that program. Explore the various opportunities below for more information.

Peer Leaders (PLs) play a key role in helping to orient our incoming first-year students to the college community by serving as mentors and guides during Welcome Week and as a teaching assistant for the required first-year courses during the fall semester. PLs receive intensive leadership training, an opportunity to network with faculty and staff, and are compensation for their work.
