Can one person really make a difference? Students can and do make significant contributions to the campus climate and culture here at CSI and in our respective communities.

Beginning Tuesday, Nov. 13 and continuing through to Saturday, Nov. 17, the CSI Office of Student Life will be offering events and workshops that will explore how to identify, build, and activate your leadership skills.
