Student Involvement looks
for potential leaders
Students looking for leadership experience
can apply for Student Involvement’s 2000-01
academic year Leadership Team.
L-Team members spend two to 10 hours
each semester training to assist student organi
zation officers, residence halls and greek
houses, college advisory boards and other
campus groups.
The team will work with the groups on
officer transitions, team building and recruit
ing and retaining members.
Stacey Duncan, a senior psychology major
and L-Team assistant, said students on the
team can gain leadership experience and the
opportunity to work with different groups on
campus.
“Our biggest obstacle right now is getting
the word out that theLeadership Team is
there,” Duncan said.
She said the first year has been successful,
though.
“We’ll have more to build on for next
year,” she said.
Team members will be trained on leader
ship skills and how to share information.
Applications for the L-Team are due
March 6 at 4 p.m. in the Student Involvement
office at Nebraska Union 200. For more infor
mation, call (402) 472-2454.
