"GCLC sets new attendance record"
The Center for Leadership and Service (CLS) and the Leadership Resource Team (LRT) hosted the 13th annual Georgia Collegiate Leadership Conference (GCLC), February 7, 2009, in the Tate Student Center on UGA's Athens campus. Bringing together participants from UGA and a dozen institutions across the state, the conference and its theme "So You Think You Can Lead?" challenged students to consider their personal and professional development in the context of their abilities to lead responsibly as citizens of the world community. With a 350% increase in UGA student registration from the previous year, the GCLC hosted its largest and most comprehensive collection of leadership- and service-based workshops, seminars, roundtables, and networking sessions.
Keynote speaker Joshua Fredenburg opened the morning with a rousing reminder of our roles in society and urged a call to action for all students to employ servant leadership. Presenters included current CSAA students, faculty, and other university staff who inspired a culture of responsibility via interactive workshops. CSAA '09 students Steve Dutton, Kari Rood, Jillian Sroda, Stormy Zink, Kathryn Kay, Courtney Brawford, and Jemilia Harrison along with CSAA '10 students Dawn Aiello and Lindsey Ann McKinney led workshops on effective group communication, networking, empowered leadership, cross-cultural dialogue, successful student organization meetings, and ideas for positive change. The Coffee Hour and Energizer were expertly facilitated by CSAA '09 students Jessica Morgan and Steve Dutton, along with CSAA '10 students Caleb Keith and Brad Romig.
Designed, implemented, and hosted exclusively by University of Georgia student members of the Leadership Resource Team, the GCLC reaches a diverse audience of participants seeking leadership development. Serving the UGA and surrounding university communities, GCLC is free to all UGA students (just $45 for students from other campuses). We look forward to an even larger delegation February 6, 2010, for the 14th annual GCLC, in the newly opened Tate Student Center expansion. See you then!
Keep checking back here! This semester is flying by and we hope to be able to update more as we get closer to summer and then throughout the months leading up to fall!
