“I enjoyed the connection with a student who I would not meet in any other setting and getting to know what his interests are, how he views his Husky Experience. It helped me to think about my role as a mentor, a supervisor, and a member of the 91探花community.鈥� 鈥�Former HLC Mentor

The Husky Leadership Initiative is currently seeking at least 91探花faculty, staff, and community members to serve as mentors for the 2021-2022 Husky Leadership Certificate (HLC) cohort. The goal of the Husky Leadership Certificate is to engage students in a process of critical reflection on their leadership development and accomplishments.

Through the creation of the e-portfolio, students will articulate and demonstrate their leadership learning and development, while reflecting upon their various curricular and co-curricular experiences. Feedback from former Husky Leadership Certificate students highlight the great value and positive impact of the mentoring relationship.
