Join. Lead. Learn. Grow.

The Office of Student Involvement and Leadership Development at Worcester State University believes strongly in the diverse range of leaders that exists on our campus. This website was launched to both highlight our immersive leadership programs and to recognize and celebrate the great work being done by the leaders in our community.  We also aim to highlight through our stories that leadership means so many things to so many people.
