Student Leadership and Service (SLS)
About Us
Our Mission and Vision
Student Leadership and Service (SLS) envisions a diverse, interconnected community engaged in processes of positive and sustainable change. In pursuit of this vision, we engage students and other stakeholders in experiential education and civic action to support individual and collective development.
Our Theoretical Foundations
SLS utilizes the Leadership Model for Social Change as a guide for our work. Through this model we understand leadership to be values-based, collaborative action toward positive social change. The primary themes of this model are shown below.
SLS’ work is also informed by the 4 foci of our Division of Student Life, which include:
- Diversity
- Wellness
- Academic and Experiential Learning
- Civic Leadership and Career Development
