Golden ARCHES Peer Educators

Advocating Responsible Choices through Health Education and Support

  • A.N.G.L.E. -- Advocates for National Greek Leadership & Education
  • Highlander SAMs -- Student Athlete Mentors
  • Peer Health Educators -- open to any student

The three groups work together under the umbrella name Golden ARCHES, and are affiliated with the BACCHUS & GAMMA national peer education. A Golden ARCHES executive board, made up of the co-directors of each of the three groups, meets weekly to facilitate collaboration on campus-wide campaigns or events.

The application and interview process begins in Spring quarter for student involvement the following academic year. Please contact Doug Everhart, everhart@ucr.edu, 827-2874 for more information.
