This includes working in small groups, working with campus administrators, budgeting and funding requests, planning and hosting meetings and events, etc. Students who complete the C&O LEAD Designation will have the accomplishment added to their academic transcript at graduation. 

• Application Process:
  • To be a club/organization officer, individuals must be elected into office through their specific club or organizations’s election process laid out in their club/organization constitution.
