About Us

 

 

This organization began in 1969 as a class to prepare freshman for leadership roles within the university.

 

A course where you develop personal leadership skills, learn to adjust
to college and receive three semester credit hours is an extraordinary
experience called Freshman Leadership Class. This unique course is
offered to incoming freshmen students who have the desire to further
enhance their leadership skills. Students are taught skills that are
beneficial during and after college. Students play vital roles in the
planning and implementation of the university's traditions.

The fall semester of the course is geared toward developing personal
leadership skills and achieving academic success. Additionally, students
work in collaboration with university administrators and community
leaders on major city community service projects. The spring semester
focuses on providing hands-on experience for leading organizations,
boards and small groups. Students will learn how to work with other
leaders around campus to create a pleasant experience for all A&M
Commerce students.

Freshmen Leadership Class is a great opportunity for students who are or
want to be leaders and to acquire invaluable leadership skills. Students are
thrust into campus leadership positions.
