Emerge Leadership Summer Camp

Monday, July 8, 2024

8:00 am - 4:00 pm

Emerge Leadership Academy (ELA) is designed to provide rising high school juniors and seniors with leadership skills essential to their academic or professional endeavors. ELA champions the importance of emotional intelligence, critical/strategic thinking, collaborative learning, and other ideals within leadership development. While ELA is for all students, it is specifically crafted with the historically underserved and underrepresented in mind. ELA offers its program at a low cost. Upcoming juniors and seniors who have an interest in becoming leaders in the classroom, their communities, and their future careers are encouraged to apply.

ELA is a two-week intensive program that centers around academic excellence, self-improvement, and leadership development while familiarizing students with the intricacies of college life. Students will attend classes that include (but are not limited to) college readiness, African American Studies, the Creative Arts, critical/strategic thinking and SAT Math Prep. University faculty members, African American Studies Alumni, and other community partners will serve as instructors and mentors.
