The Leadership Sequence

Leadership Sequence information from the Kravis Leadership Institute

The Leadership Studies Program is a multi-disciplinary program focusing on the nature of leadership and followership. It addresses the scientific, philosophical, and literary approaches to the relationship between leaders and followers in political, business, and other settings.

The Leadership Studies Program and the Leadership Sequence are designed for students interested in pursuing a career involving the scholarly study and practice of leadership, who feel that an understanding of leadership would be helpful to them in another career, or who have a casual interest in the subject.

Completion of the sequence will be noted on students' transcript.

The Legal Studies Program

The intercollegiate and interdisciplinary Program in Legal Studies seeks to illuminate law from a liberal arts perspective, with ideas and methods from disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. It is also inteded to help unify and increase the student's appreciation of these other disciplines by using them to study law as a central social phenomenon and repository of values. A premise of the Program in Legal Studies is that law, when approaced from a liberal arts perspective, reveals a collection of magnificent intellectual and social structures that are too important - and too interesting - to be left entirely to professionals.

The Program in Legal Studies is completed as part of a dual major. See the Legal Studies web site.
