    Call for Student Leader Nominations

    Faculty and staff are encouraged to recognize and nominate outstanding students who have demonstrated leadership, character, academic commitment and contributions to their community as candidates for the Leadership Legacy Experience through Student Activities.

    This is a year-long leadership enhancement program that is immersive, comprehensive, substantive, and builds on students’ legacies as leaders while helping them prepare for lives of leadership, commitment, and contribution beyond graduation. 

    The Legacy Experience will recognize the University’s most exceptional student leaders based on their academic commitment, exceptional character, contributions to the community, and overall areas of personal achievement.  As a result of this experiential program, these students will graduate from the University having left behind a legacy of leadership; and the skills and experiences they have developed in that process will be an asset to them in their future endeavors.

    Legacy will be welcoming the 17th cohort, beginning in January 2023 through December 2023. Students must be enrolled as full-time undergraduates during the entire program, and the program committee is focusing on students who are currently in at least their 4th semester at UConn.  Nominations are being accepted now through October 21st, 2022, so we encourage you to consider and nominate those extraordinary students who you think would benefit from the experience and who, in turn, would be an asset to the program and University. Submit nominations here!
