Student Services is excited to offer students a full Student Leadership Program. Starting in October 2011 the Student Leadership Program will run till March 2012. The program is developed to provide a meaningful learning experience outside of the classroom for students in the areas relating to Student Leadership while building a sense of community among students, increasing student engagement and serving as a way to recognize the contributions student leaders make to campus and the community.

The program is comprised of 5 key components including a leadership conference, a winter workshop, as well as experiential, service, and reflective learning components. Faculty, staff and students are encouraged to nominate students for this program. Candidates should be seen as student leaders and want to develop their leadership skills further.
