May 17, 2022

BATON ROUGE – º£½ÇÉçÇø has recognized 24 students as the Spring Cohort Class of 2022 for Leadership º£½ÇÉçÇø, an annual program coordinated by º£½ÇÉçÇø Campus Life.

In its 33rd year, this º£½ÇÉçÇø tradition provides juniors, seniors and graduate students the opportunity to develop and apply their leadership at high levels while in their final semesters at º£½ÇÉçÇø. Participants chosen for the Leadership º£½ÇÉçÇø Spring Cohort exhibit the capacity to learn and impact others positively through their leadership experiences. 

The curriculum of Leadership º£½ÇÉçÇø is based in adaptive leadership through group discussion and extracurricular lectures with º£½ÇÉçÇø and community leaders. By the end of the program, students have learned how to identify adaptive leadership challenges, address social issues with the community, recognize the opportunities that come from an adaptive leadership experience and support the Leadership º£½ÇÉçÇø peer network.
