LEAD, Drake’s concentration in Leadership Education and Development, is now housed in the College of Arts and Sciences. LEAD remains an interdisciplinary program open to undergraduates from any academic program; more than 100 students have declared the concentration and 175 students are enrolled in LEAD classes this fall.

Summer LEAD activities
This summer, Adam Graves (SJMC) and Danielle Day (CBPA) completed a six-week LEAD capstone class in Punta Gorda, Belize. Read more about Adam’s experience on his blog for TIDE, the nongovernmental organization he worked with.
