Submitting a Proposal
The theme for our 26th Leadership Week is “Retro Future: Building Future Leaders.” This year’s theme reminds us that great leaders draw strength from the past while imagining bold possibilities ahead. The Leadership Week Executive Board invites any individual or group to submit a proposal related to one of the following three leadership topics:
- Student Success and Well-Being: Exploring pathways to academic achievement, personal growth, and community contribution.
- Discovery and Exploration: Creative, entrepreneurial, or research-driven approaches to societal challenges such as climate change, food insecurity, poverty, health, biodiversity, and human rights.
- Community and Culture: Building a culture of inclusion, innovation, public service, collaboration, and civil discourse.
Programs may take the form of keynote addresses, workshops, panels, or other interactive educational formats.
