LEAD

The Bobcats LEAD cohort program is an opportunity to explore your strengths as a leader, or gain or refine the skills needed to aid students in their overall success beyond Texas State University. Throughout this cohort experience, participants will have the chance to engage in various opportunities such as attending an overnight retreat, leadership education workshops and networking events, as well as make connections with other Bobcat students. Our goal is to equip students with the necessary leadership skills they will need to become active and engaged student leaders in the Bobcat community.

Each year, Leadership and Service partners with the Division of Student Success and The LBJ Presidential Library and Museum to commemorate the signing of the 1965 Higher Education Act by President Lyndon Baines Johnson. 25 student leaders from various departments are selected to serve as campus delegates and engage in activities and discussions with experts on the life and legacy of President Johnson and the various initiatives that he championed.

We believe that the opportunity for our students to listen and connect with leaders who worked with and were inspired by one of our most distinguished graduates will have a profound impact on their own leadership journeys.

The Next Up: Internship Program is an extensive internship program for undergraduate students who are interested in deepening their leadership identity and further practicing their commitment to service. Interns play an integral role in peer-to-peer leadership education, serve as Bobcat Break Trip Leaders, and are the undergraduate student voice within the Leadership & Service area’s programming and services.
