African American Leadership Program Offers Community Networking, Mentoring and Unity for Students at Westminster College - SFGate

African American Leadership Program Offers Community Networking, Mentoring and Unity for Students at Westminster College - SFGate: All new college students grapple with the adjustments of their new lives and new environment, but Westminster College in Fulton, MO has established a new leadership program for African American men and women to help them cope with college life and strengthen community bonds.

The Bagby and Pasley-Taylor Leadership Programs are new initiatives from the Office of Intercultural Engagement under the Emerson Center for Leadership and Service on campus. They offer Westminster African American students the opportunity to interact and learn from African American leaders in local Callaway County and the Fulton communities. Both programs meet once a month in order to encourage networking, mentoring and unity between the College and the community.
