SO&L’s Fall Leadership Conference serves as an opportunity to create a space for students to understand leadership in various forms and to recognize that there is no single “right” way to lead.

Diversity Leadership Conference

The Diversity Leadership Conference is a week-long virtual conference hosted every spring semester with 2-3 workshops per day. This conference was developed with the intention of creating opportunities for students to engage in programming that addresses topics through a diverse, equity-minded, and inclusive (DEI) lens. Students will be able to learn about various topics presented by their peers, faculty/staff, and community members.
