Emerging Leaders Institute Session 1

Kappa Alpha Theta will hold Session 1 of the Emerging Leaders Institute (ELI) this Thursday-Sunday, July 12-15, at DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana. ELI provides leadership education and development to undergraduate members, with an emphasis on emerging leaders. The curriculum focuses on increasing skill development and understanding leadership as a relational process. Any undergraduate Theta who considers herself an emerging leader was encouraged to apply. Emerging leadership is defined not by age, but rather by experience with leadership education and development. The 48 students attending Session 1 represent 38 different college chapters. 

We would like to acknowledge and thank the facilitators and Theta volunteers who will be joining us for Session 1 of ELI.
