欢迎访问总统学生领导学院网页. 我很高兴你能来, 我为这个项目感到骄傲, and hope that you will seriously consider applying for this unique opportunity to experience and learn about leadership in this ever-changing and demanding world. As you might have heard me say over these past few years, “Leadership matters!无论你是学生社团还是荣誉社团的一员, an athletic team, a classroom, 志愿者组织, 或者大学社区, leadership determines the quality and values that drive the mission and accomplishments of that group. 当你从特拉华理工大学毕业的时候, leadership will determine the quality and values of your work experience, 你的生活质量, 以及我们留给未来的世界. The goal of this program is to help you prepare for those opportunities.
通过接下来几个月的一系列活动——阅读, discussion groups, 写反思, 华盛顿之旅, D.C., and capstone meeting – we will explore themes such as self-awareness, empathy, 仆人领导, compassion, critical thinking and the role of history in our present-day decision making. 领导这些活动,并为参与者提供有意义的, 高品质的领导经验, I will be joined by members of the College’s senior administrative team in the weeks ahead to personally convene and facilitate.
There is no question that leadership involves having talent and expertise in one’s career endeavors, 但还有更多. And we are going to tap into some of the “more” during our weeks together. 如果你被选中参加, I am confident that the PSLA will engage you in very memorable ways to increase your knowledge of this very important topic, while also expanding your view of national history and cultural awareness, 这些都是为了影响你成长为未来的领导者.
