Information on becoming a PMAC:

PMACs serve as a resource and motivator for first-year students. Based on research findings and past experiences, peer-to-peer interaction with an emphasis on students’ academic success and personal development is particularly important to overall growth during the first year in college. PMACs play an essential role in making sure new students are acclimated to their new environment before classes begin. Communication with new students will begin over the summer and continue throughout the fall semester.
