Social Events
Jefferson Scholar Peer Mentors lead sponsored outings and group activities for Jefferson Scholars. Outings range from theatre, ballet, and symphony performances to museum tours. These events are open to all Jefferson Scholars. Look out for these opportunities in our weekly newsletter.
In addition to these sorts of field trips, peer mentors also host coffees, picnics, study sessions, and other informal gatherings. Join us!
Here are some of the outings our Peer Mentors led in 2025/26:
- Austin Symphony Orchestra
- The Grimm Tales, Ballet Austin
- The Outsiders
- Hadestown
- The Nutcracker
- As You Like It!
Who Can Propose an Outing?
The activity fund is primarily used by Peer Mentors, but all Jefferson Scholars may apply to lead an outing. If you are a Jefferson Scholar and want to propose an outing, fill out the form!
