Study Buddies (SB) is a student organization focused on service to the MSUCOM student community. The group is guided by the principle“we’re all in this together,” which emphasizes: (1) Cooperation over competition among colleagues and (2) Recognition of each individual’s unique set of strengths and weaknesses. SB’s mission is to facilitate and promote peer-to-peer teaching and cooperative group learning. Study Buddies is unique in that all COM students are automatically members. In addition, all MSUCHM students are also members. SB encourages broad-based participation by all members.
