Leadership

The Office of Campus Life assists students’ leadership development in a variety of ways. Students have access to many leadership opportunities on campus. In addition, the Office of Campus Life facilitates a series of programs and workshops to help students develop their leadership skills. Dickinson focuses on developing students' capacity as leaders and valuing students as integral members of the community. We value student ownership of events and programs, while at the same time providing necessary professional support.
