Bronze Leadership Challenge: Honors College Cohort

The Office of Leadership and Civic Engagement (OLCE) offers a comprehensive Leadership Challenge Program that engages students over three series of workshops: Bronze, Silver, and Gold. In the first series, the Bronze series, students learn what leadership is and learn about their own leadership strengths and interests. Students who complete the series are recognized with a bronze medallion and a certificate at the end of the academic year. Once students have completed the Bronze series, they can pursue Silver and later Gold. 

The Honors College regularly offers a cohort of students through the Bronze series. Be sure to read the Dragon Weekly newsletter for announcements. If you have questions, please email the Honors College.
