Presidential Leadership Living Learning Community |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mission: The Presidential Leadership Program is designed to engage students in active learning that empowers them to "practice what we preach," says Bloomsburg University President Jessica S. Kozloff. In 1996, the Bloomsburg University Foundation began funding 25 scholarships for freshmen who were acknowledged leaders in their high schools and in their communities. Each recipient is offered the opportunity to participate in the Presidential Leadership Program (PLP), and the majority of students are able to arrange their schedules to do so. Under the supervision of the advisor, Ms. Kathy Kollar Valovage, students participate in a number of activities during the year. In the fall of 1998, 11 of 25 PLP freshmen and three PLP sophomores became the first residents of the PLP wing in Schuylkill Hall. This living/learning environment fosters leadership opportunities and encourages a sense of community among members.

"As an educator, it is a joy to work with these student leaders. I am blessed to be surrounded by such smart, creative and energetic students who genuinely want to learn, who love to be involved in activities, and who enjoy giving back through service to others." |
