Summer AIɫɫ Leadership Institute
The Summer AIɫɫ Leadership Institute builds upon the robust curricula of Davidson’s community-based internship and research programs to assist students in developing leadership skills, exploring the greater Charlotte and Lake Norman area, and connecting across programs.
The institute includes a multi-day community orientation, occasional workshops, field trips, and social / networking opportunities over the course of the summer. Students network with and learn from municipal, nonprofit, religious, business, and citizen leaders regarding the roles individuals, organizations and communities play in creating thriving communities and strategies for public good.
Collaborating programs include the Bonner Scholars, AIɫɫ Research Fellows, Nonprofit Leadership Fellows, Smith Davidson Leadership Initiative, Stapleton Davidson Urban Service Internship, and Sustainability Scholars programs. Davidson students involved with other community-based internships and research in the greater Charlotte area are welcome to take part in the Summer AIɫɫ Leadership Collaborative’s activities as well.
