There are a variety of ways students can get involved with the Nontraditional Student Center and Hourly Childcare. All students involved in one of the following ways are considered part of the Nontraditional Student Programming Board. A luncheon and certificate are awarded each year to our students for their dedication and support they give to the Center and the nontraditional students.

Lessons in Leadership
The goal of the Lessons in Leadership program is to encourage increased leadership and involvement opportunities for Nontraditional, Women, International, Multicultural, & Disability students at Weber State University. By being involved in this program students will learn to appreciate diverse backgrounds, gain sound leadership competencies, connect with mentors on campus and in the community, and be prepared for a leadership experience at WSU.

Peer Mentors:
Each year students apply to be Peer Mentors in the Nontraditional Student Center. In the Nontrad Center Peer Mentors will connect with students in person, by phone, or by e-mail. The Nontrad Peer Mentors receive funding with tuition or are hired by the Center to recruit, refer, and assist all nontraditional students. The Peer Mentors are experienced students who can help nontraditional students navigate the campus and understand the structure of the university. The Peer Mentors are an integral part to the success of our our students.
