Leadership Workshop Series

Please join the Leadership Institute in the Dean of Students Office for the Leadership Workshop Series event on Living Your Legacy and Making a Difference: The Next Generation of Activism.
 
Wednesday, October 17, 2012
Time:  5:00 pm – 6:30 pm
Location:  LBJ Student Center, 3-13.1
 
The workshop, featuring Texas State alumnus Kevin Kline, will focus on the knowledge and tools needed to stand up for social change based on integrity, passion and a vision for a better world. Kevin, a former starting catcher for the Bobcat Baseball team, is now a childhood cancer awareness advocate and raises funds for his own non-profit, the Snowdrop Foundation. He is featured in two documentaries, Strides Across Texas and Dear Chelsey, where he ran 482 miles across Texas in 13 days. Whether your focus is social, political, economic or environmental change, this session will be helpful in understanding the nuts and bolts of organizing and rallying others around a cause, along with tips for success including goal-setting and assessment of your campaign.
