Leadership University

A chamber-sponsored program for high school juniors in Madison County—public, private and home schooled students are eligible to apply. Leadership University prepares students for involvement in the community and helps to hone leadership skills for 40 high school students each year. Through interactive programming, Leadership University teaches about all aspects of our community, as well as prepares participants to be leaders in their schools and community, equipping them with skills and information to be successful. Because of the generosity of affiliate sponsors: Lane College, Union University, Jackson State Community College and University of Memphis, participants' only cost is "paying it forward" through community service each month of the program to assigned social service agencies. A key skill of Leadership University is learning to be a servant leader and making a positive difference in the lives of others, as well as your community.
