Leadership ISU

Leadership ISU (LISU) is a leadership-focused Learning Community designed to help students develop the capacity for practicing leadership on campus and preparing them to impact organizational and community-based change. This learning community is partnered with Campus Leadership Development (LD ST 270), a course designed for students who want to learn about exemplary leadership practices and engage in experiential campus leadership opportunities.

Student Engagement is also a critical partner providing key connections for students in this learning community to lead the amazing possibilities for students at Iowa State.
