The webpage is fairly new, so if there are any resources or features that the site seems to be lacking just send me an email and most likely the idea will find its way onto the website.

There are a few ways to find our website. One is to type in "Math Peer Advising" in the google search on the UO's main page (http://www.uoregon.edu). Another
