Leadership Academic Courses
The Office of Leadership Development understands that one’s education and development is most transformational when in and out of classroom learning is intricately and seamlessly linked. Therefore, the office works to both create and instruct leadership courses and build connections amongst the various Schools and Colleges that offer existing leadership-related courses.
Currently, the program director creates the curriculum and instructs a one-credit leadership-themed first year seminar course taught within the Leadership Living Learning Community. During the summer of 2009 The General Education Program awarded the program director and Dr. Tracey Weiss, a faculty member in the Department of Strategic and Organizational Communication (StOC), a stipend to create the curriculum for a GenEd Human Behavior course titled “Leadership and Emotional Intelligence.”
