Leadership
The Leadership Recognition Ceremony is held in
April of each year. This program recognizes the outstanding leaders
on campus with awards such as the 1902 Award, the Amy Snow Prize,
and the Individual Class Leadership Awards. All students have the
opportunity to be rewarded for their involvement on campus.
The Leading the Way program is held before classes
begin in the Spring semester. For students involved in key campus
leadership roles, this retreat focuses on collaboration and working
with other groups on campus.
For junior- and senior-year students, the Community Leadership
Program focuses on educating students about leadership opportunities
available within a community. Using the Carlisle community as a model,
this program will explore various avenues available for students interested
in community involvement. Topics include Human Services, Business/Economic
Development, Education, Government, and Religion. This program occurs
during the evening hours and all participants must be on campus for
the entire fall semester. To nominate someone for this program, e-mail
stuact@dickinson.edu.
The Office of Student Activities is sponsoring a leadership series for first-year students entitled Dickinson Foundations. During this program, participants will meet every Monday evening with college administrators and staff, until Spring Break, for approximately 2 hours over dinner to discuss a relevant topic. The overarching theme for each session is one of the Dickinson Dimensions. Students will be expected to relate the Dimensions to their own goals of achievement and community involvement.
Located across from the Underground in the Lower Level of the HUB,
the Leadership Development Center provides information
and resources to individual students, clubs and organizations. A
student organization copy machine is available for clubs and organizations
to make free copies and some organizations have office space.
If you have ideas for leadership programs, we want to talk
to you! We are looking for new ideas and feedback on the current
campus leadership opportunities. If your friend at another school
did something really cool, e-mail
us. If you were part of an amazing program in high school that
you think could work here, tell us. If you have a great idea, share
it!
