RSU Selects President's
Leadership Class Members
Rogers State University has selected 17
students from across Oklahoma to join its President's Leadership Class (PLC), a
four-year scholarship program to develop student leadership skills.
"The President's Leadership Class is a program
designed to identify outstanding students, foster their intellectual growth, and
refine their leadership skills," said RSU President Dr. Joe Wiley.
Dr. Carolyn Taylor, RSU strategic initiatives
coordinator and assistant professor in the Department of Social and Behavioral
Sciences, serves as the PLC faculty advisor.
Each class member will work closely with
student groups and university administration to enhance services to students and
the community, Taylor said. Responsibilities of PLC members include volunteering
for campus service projects, being active members of student organizations,
attending selected RSU alumni programs and RSU Foundation events, and visiting
selected high schools with RSU recruiters.
Students selected for the PLC will receive a
$3,500 annual scholarship, and the RSU Foundation has been instrumental in
securing funding for this leadership initiative. PLC members were selected
