BECOMING A LEADER

Everyone has the potential to be a leader and WSU's nationally recognized program will help you learn how. Meet new people and practice the skills needed to bring change in your own life, community and the world!

THE SOCIAL CHANGE MODEL

Emerging Leaders is based on a leadership model focused around enhancing student learning and facilitating positive social change. Our model is less about the leader and more about the leadership community.

Workshops

Emerging Leaders participate in 5 workshops before the end of the semester. You will learn more about yourself and your leadership values, as well as how to be most successful in school and campus life at WSU.
