Upcoming Conferences

Leadership and Volunteer Services takes a select group of student applicants to several conferences each year, providing transportation and registration. Overnight lodging and some meals are also provided where required based upon the conference location and schedule.

We facilitate student attendance at these conferences with the following outcomes in mind:

  • Enhancing students' leadership skills and knowledge
  • Broadening and diversifying their perspectives on inclusive leadership
  • Developing a cohort of student leaders who bring what they learn back to campus for benefit of their fellow Roadrunners
  • Providing students with a first professional conference experience, networking and professional development opportunity
