Emerging Leaders...
“Emerging Leaders not only opened my eyes to the many aspects of leadership but the course also helped shape my leadership to what it is today. The class, the mentors, and the instructors really made the class a welcoming environment that caught everyone’s attention the moment we stepped into the class. If I had a chance to take the course every semester, I would simply because it’s an amazing experience to build leadership skills with other leaders guiding and supporting each other.” - Denise H.(UIW SGA President), EL Student/Peer Mentor
"EL was a great class! Its a little extra work, but hard work always comes with payoffs and at the end of the semester, I felt great. I felt more like a well-rounded leader and individual." EL student, Class of '08

With this class, you get what you put into it, and if you give 100% of your effort, there is no end to the rewards that will be returned. -Peter Fingar; EL Student & Peer Mentor
