This experience is designed to introduce students to the foundations of leadership through the Brave Experience. All workshops are related to leadership and centered around one of the four domains of the Brave Experience: Learning, Belonging, Community, and Well-Being. Each workshop will meet one of the learning objectives of the domains and connect to how this supports leadership growth and development.
Brave Experience Learning Objectives:
- Learning: Support student development and success through engagement in transformative educational experiences in and beyond the discipline that encourage a self-motivated pursuit of knowledge.
- Belonging: Cultivate a sense of inclusion through active engagement and participation in initiatives that support relationship development, engagement in learning and discourse, and the exploration of pathways that help in achieving personal and career aspirations.
- Community: Engage with others in the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources to create and strengthen supportive and collaborative environments on and off campus.
- Well-Being: Encourage students to identify, develop, and practice healthy habits that promote a sustainable balance of one's mental, physical, and emotional wellness.
