The OPSU Aggie Peers
offers peer education programs focusing on alcohol abuse prevention and other related student health and safety issues.
It is the mission
of the association to actively promote peer education as a useful element of campus health education and wellness efforts.
Peer Education programs focus on alcohol, tobacco, violence prevention, sexual health and safety.
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.
