"The Leadership Seminar was a great way to start off Freshman year and my college career!...Throughout the rest of the year with other organization meetings, interviews, and meeting with faculty and adults, I was able to use the things that I learned in Leadership Seminar again and again."

"The skills taught to me in Leadership Seminar have helped me immensely in the professional business world, whether it be proper etiquette during a lunch interview or knowing how to address superiors, I may not have received my summer internship had it not been for the lessons taught to me in Leadership Seminar."

Leadership Seminar, 2007

"I think my entire view on leadership is different now. I think I've undergone a paradigm shift. I used to think that leaders were people with a title, but after learning about followership and social change, I now see from the opposite side. I can see how the true leaders are active participants, and I think that this concept will make me a more effective leader because now I know where to begin."
Heather Meyer
Leadership Seminar, 2006

"Its always the getting out of the gate that is the hardest; the run is all up to what's inside to get you around the turns, into the home stretch, and across the line with style, grace, and most importantly respect for all."
