- Peer_Leadership_Program abstract "The Peer Leadership Program is an organization, most often run in public high schools and four-year Universities, that looks upon upperclassmen to help ease the transition to the underclassman's respective freshmen year. The Peer Program is considered to stress communal interaction and social insight. Before meeting with smaller groups of newcomers the larger Peer Organization is trained to deal with the psychological and emotional needs the newcomers may express.Why "Peer leaders" ?There is a wealth of empirical evidence supporting the use of peer leaders; including Arthur Chickering’s work on psychosocial development among college students (1969), which clearly establishes that the peer group has a powerful effect on student development. Subsequent research from Pascarella and Terenzini (1991) and Astin (1985), has further supported this notion that students are influenced by their peers (p.55). In his 1993 findings published in What Matters in College, Astin maintained that “the student’s peer group is the single most potent source of influence on growth and development during the undergraduate years” (pp. 398). Many educators will agree that it was this 1993 finding which served as the catalyst for the resurgence and emergence of hundreds of peer leadership programs in colleges and universities across the US and even overseas.".
