All are invited to the second annual LEAD event featuring the WSU President’s Award for Leadership

The 2014 Leadership and Engagement Awards of Distinction (LEAD) event is a celebration of WSU student leaders and those who have mentored and supported the efforts of these students as they work towards leadership and social change. The LEAD program will include an address from the 2013-14 ASWSU president and vice president and GPSA president, the inauguration of the 2014-15 ASWSU officers, a Gallery of Leadership, and the presentation of the 2014 President’s Award for Leadership featuring WSU Provost Dr. Daniel Bernardo. The LEAD event is open to the public and will take place on Thursday, April 24 beginning at 5:00 pm in the Compton Union Senior Ballroom on the WSU Pullman campus.

Beginning at 5:00 pm, guests are invited visit the Gallery of Leadership and enjoy a brief event reception. The Gallery of Leadership will feature a variety of projects in which WSU students have shown themselves to be true Cougar leaders who have made a difference in the community or on campus.

Following the Gallery of Leadership and reception, the current ASWSU officers will be acknowledged for their service throughout the year, and the 2014-15 officers will be inaugurated.

At the conclusion of the inauguration, the presentation of the 2014 President’s Award for Leadership will begin. Since 1996, the President’s Award has been an honor bestowed annually to students and others who advance leadership and engagement at WSU. Recipients of this prestigious award demonstrate exceptional leadership and service to the university and the community and/or support leadership development and engagement of WSU students. Awardees were reviewed using the framework of the Social Change Model of Leadership Development. The 2014 award categories are student, student group, faculty or staff, and community organization.
