Students will engage in leadership-based learning and public service projects to examine contemporary issues in public policy. Leadership as a search for meaning, identity and purpose are explored. Major philosophical traditions, from the ancient world to the modern one, are introduced, encouraging students to ground their leadership interests and aspirations in a disciplined process of self-reflection, critical thinking and inquiry. Structured as a lecture and discussion series, this course will develop and apply student's understanding of leadership philosophy, policy, and social justice through active in class participation, simulations, group work, and structured discussion activities.
