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.
