Welcome to the Center for Student Leadership and Service! Housed in the Ohio Union and working in partnership with departments and offices across campus, the new Center for Student Leadership and Service strives to serve as a comprehensive, centralized, connection point for students, staff, and faculty to leadership and service opportunities on campus.
We work to strengthen and transform personal leadership through a broad variety of experiences and opportunities, to develop social consciousness around issues which affect us all, and to connect people and resources in an inclusive environment that fosters learning, innovation, and lifelong action. We intentionally link leadership and service because we believe that every student has the potential and the capacity to serve through leadership in our community. Our vision is to prepare world-class leaders for responsible citizenship.
