Roosevelt Empowering Values, Excellence, and Leadership (REVEAL)
Are you a leader? We think you are. We believe there is a leader within each and every one of our students. Being a leader begins with self discovery, and in the Center for Student Involvement we’re here to help you REVEAL the leader within. We offer three programs to help with your discovery, The LEAD Program, the Eleanor Roosevelt Society and the Leadership Summit. These programs were created to enhance student’s leadership skills as well as to connect you to campus. LEAD: Leaders Evolving And Developing LEAD is a leadership development workshop series, designed for students of all levels and experiences to explore different avenues within the word “leadership.” The LEAD Program is a semester-long commitment; each semester, a different topic is explored through a variety of exciting and interactive workshops facilitated by RU faculty and staff. Fall 2009 DIY: Creating Your Own Opportunities Some people wait for things to happen, others make things happen! Learn how to actively seek opportunities to advance your leadership skills and open doors for future success. Click here for the fall LEAD schedule (MS Word document). Spring 2010 New Year, New Leaders Learn how to overcome challenges and successfully lead in today’s world. Through this workshop series, students will examine living role models, learn about their own strengths, and find out what it takes to be a great leader now. Requirements of Completion In order to receive a certificate of completion in a specific leadership track, students must attend five workshops during the semester that the topic is offered. Students may register for one, or both semesters and can receive up to two leadership certificates per academic year. For each semester completed, students will be honored at the Student Leadership Awards with a LEAD Certificate.
The Eleanor Roosevelt Society
The Eleanor Roosevelt Society incorporates leadership workshops, community excursions, weekly journaling, and a culminating leadership project. This program is designed to be an intensive six month program for students interested in exploring the connection between leadership and social justice. Students interested in this free leadership experience will be able to apply in the fall of each academic year.

Leadership Summit
Leadership Summit 2009 participants Leadership development is important to the Roosevelt community. Although we have many ways for students to engage in leadership development opportunities here on campus, there is so much more that we can do. The Center for Student Involvement, with guidance from the Leadership Summit Advisory Team, sponsor the Leadership Summit as way to promote leadership development, self-reflection, social justice, and to overall build better partnerships between students and administrators. The Leadership Summit is a weekend, overnight retreat held off campus. The Summit focuses on topics including leadership development, social justice, and how to be better agents of positive, social change. Activities consist of large and small group discussions, concurrent and interactive workshops, and plenty of team-building and self-reflection. And most importantly, students have the opportunity to create a collective action plan to bring back and implement on campus. The February 2009 Leadership Summit was at Camp McLean in Burlington, Wisconsin. Contact the Center for Student Involvement at 312-341-2015 or csi@roosevelt.edu for information about the 2010 Summit.
