My Student Experience: NC State Students Serve as Peer Mentors for Elevate Program
Emmerson Fipps, a student in the NC State College of Education’s elementary education program, has always had a passion for special education. When she enrolled in the College of Education, she opted to earn a special education add-on licensure, and when she learned about NC State’s inclusive postsecondary education program, Elevate, Fipps knew she wanted to be part of it. She found a way as a peer mentor with Elevate.
