Summer Leadership Institutes FREE for Summer Students

We are happy to announce two great leadership programs this summer for summer school students!  The CATALYST program (June 19) is a one-day program offered by Leadershape to connect students to their passions and move them towards action. The LEADERSHIP STRENGTHSQUEST program (July 24) is a one-day program designed to identify personal leadership strengths and discover how to capitalize on those strengths.

Both programs are designed and led by nationally trained leadership educators who are travelling to our campus specifically to engage with our students. Each program is free of charge (and includes meals), but is valued at $150 per participant.  Priority registration will be for students enrolled in summer courses.

Please share information about these two programs far and wide and encourage students interested or engaged in leadership to sign up!  We would prefer that students only sign up for one program to give space for everyone to participate in a program.

These programs are sponsored by the Adele H. Stamp Student Union – Center for Campus Life; Leadership & Community Service-Learning, and supported by the Department of Resident Life, AFROTC, College Park Scholars, The Department of Fraternity & Sorority Life, Multicultural Involvement & Community Advocacy (MICA), New Student Orientation, Campus Recreation Services, University Career Center & The President’s Promise, and Hillel.
