The UNL Institute on Civic Engagement, a partnership between the Department of Political Science, the Department of Communication Studies, and the Center for Civic Engagement funded by the Department of State, will bring 20 students from countries in southern Africa to learn about political culture and social activism in the United States. These students will be taking courses, visiting local civic organizations, and living in residence halls from January 11, 2014-February 5, 2013. We seek 20 UNL undergraduate peer mentors to participate in some of the formal events and to informally socialize with Institute participants. UNL undergraduate peer mentors will be eligible for a $350 stipend to be applied to Education Abroad study.
