The Ohio Wesleyan Leadership Fellows program is designed to provide students with well-developed leadership skills combined with the opportunity to organize, influence, and present leadership programs that serve the campus community.
Hometown: Marion, OH Major: Music Education Campus Involvement: NAfME Collegiate, Sanborn Sound, Jaywalkers, Various Musical Ensembles Favorite Organizational Tool: Whiteboards/chalkboards. I use them for everything from motivational quotes and drawing on brain breaks to listing upcoming assignments and to do lists. I need at least three in a living space. One for classes, one for campus involvement, and one for my self care needs.
Hometown: Bexley, OH Major: Exercise Science Minor: Psychology Campus Involvement:Women's Varsity Soccer Team, Director of Scholarship in Delta Gamma Involvement Advice: Don't join an organization just because everyone is joining it. Join an organization because of the values it holds and because you can see yourself contributing to the organization and the organization is helping you.
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois Majors: Neuroscience, French, and Pre-Medicine Campus Involvement: Women's Varsity Tennis Team, Bishop Ambassador Intern, World Languages and Cultures Student Board Member, President of Pet Pals Favorite Organizational Tool: My planner. I prefer to write everything down. It allows me to see everything I have to do that week and plan each day accordingly.
