Posse Scholars Leadership Development

This course is designed to promote the intellectual, social, and civic development of first-year Posse scholars, both individually and as a group. Students will attend weekly workshops drawing from the Posse Foundation’s leadership curriculum. Workshops will also draw on the instructor’s areas of expertise and will focus on topics most pertinent to students’ goals and needs. Some workshops will include guest lectures, experiential learning, and student-facilitated discussion. Students will reflect on their learning in bi-weekly meetings with the instructor, as well as in writing. They will also identify initiatives or projects they wish to promote on campus or in the local community, applying what they have learned. (This course is only open to first-year students.) (This is a half credit course.)
