"We utilize Nearpeer to combat loneliness and isolation, increase student satisfaction, and provide connection and belonging."
"Nearpeer is helping our students get to know and support each other in different ways. The worst thing is having a student come to campus and feel alone. Nearpeer has made our first-year students a lot more engaged.
I was surprised most at how little we had to do. It was a turnkey program for us."
“We’re looking at Nearpeer as a new channel of communication. Students came here for authentic, human connection."
