Leadership Opportunities

The clubs and organizations at Gettysburg create more than a thousand leadership opportunities for students. By working with others on causes and projects of mutual interest, students gain hands-on experience with such important leadership skills as persuasion, negotiation, setting goals, and working together to reach them. Your efforts as a campus leader enrich your life while you're a student and carry over after graduation. Many students say that the experiences they gained leading a student organization gave them a competitive advantage when they moved into the workplace.
