Emerging Leaders Institute (ELI) Recap

Kappa Alpha Theta held its fifth ELI this month at DePauw University in Greencastle, Indiana. ELI aims to provide leadership education and development to undergraduate members. Using the relational leadership model, the curriculum focuses on increasing skill development and understanding leadership as a relational process. Almost 250 Thetas applied for 128 available spaces across two sessions of the Institute. The selected students represented 67 of our college chapters.
