The College of Leadership & Service is housed in H-Quad. It encourages students to explore the meaning of community service and leadership — two keys to career success and life satisfaction. This is valuable for all students regardless of major or career goals.

Students from diverse backgrounds and interests learn to meet challenges that bring about personal and social change and take advantage of leadership opportunities and the development of leadership skills. Students learn about the work of business, government, and nonprofit organizations and participate in activities, such as group projects and individual internships, to gain professional experience and test career choices.
