Program offers unique opportunities

The Leadership Studies Program at Ripon College provides a national center for the study of leadership focusing on the need to integrate individual free will with social responsibility and the human capacity to learn and grow through reflection, experience, and example.

Courses in leadership studies are designed to achieve three interdependent objectives: to develop awareness of the roles and responsibilities of leaders and followers in a democratic society; to develop critical skills for effective followership and enlightened leadership; and to provide a focus for liberal education by integrating knowledge from a variety of intellectual perspectives within the Ripon College curriculum.
