Student Leadership Academy

Be a Leader on Campus

The Division of Student Affairs embraces an inclusive model of leadership in an effort to enhance student learning and facilitate positive social change. “Inclusive Leadership” is based on a commitment to dignity, civility, equality, democracy and transformation of people. It is the ability of a person to work with others and requires strengths and abilities not normally associated with patriarchal leadership. Assuming a leadership role helps define individual members of this community, and contributes to an evolving definition of what this community will be.

At Franklin Pierce, leadership is part of the social process, something that happens between people. It occurs in every day settings, balancing involvement and personal aspirations. Students are encouraged to find experiences on the campus that will help develop their leadership style. They gain and enhance leadership skills through active participation within the campus community. Student leaders are challenged and supported by professional staff members and peers to make the most of their experience. There are numerous avenues for students interested in making a positive impact.
