OPSU Aggie Peers is a new club on the Oklahoma Panhandle State University campus this year.  Our members will be trained peer educators/counselors so that our student body at OPSU will have other students to talk with about personal problems they may be experiencing: homesickness, breaking up with a boyfriend or girlfriend, and different peer pressures in college life.  If the problems are more severe we will be able to refer them to a professional to help with the problem at hand.  We are also trained educators and will be holding several activities throughout the year to inform and educate students about healthy lifestyle choices. Our first campus-wide event will be National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness the last week of October.
