DESIGNED TO LEAD Taking its cue from TCU’s mission statement, the Leadership Center prepares individuals to become ethical leaders and responsible citizens in the global community by providing oppor tunities to create positive change in themselves, on campus, in the community, and around the world. The TCU Leadership Center serves as a clearinghouse for programs, information, and resources related to leadership skill development and training. The Center par ticipates in various scholarship and leadership award programs that suppor t leadership development and of fers non-credit classes for students who are interested in growing as leaders. One such program is the Chancellor’s Leadership Program. The Chancellor’s Leadership Program (CLP) is a leadership development program guided by the Social Change Model of Leadership Development. Open to all majors, this program offers a co-curricular, three-year, guided cohort experience for students who commit to learning how leadership development will contribute to their education and their communities.

Throughout the program, CLP Fellows are expected to complete a number of activities, including identifying their leadership style and strengths; participating in leadership retreats; creating meaningful dialogue with their cohort peers; active community service; and the completion of a Social Change Legacy Project. The Social Change Legacy Project provides students the opportunity to create lasting social change in their communities, focused on a social topic of their choice. These students truly are learning the meaning of leadership, not just for themselves, but for their community and the world.
