The K-State 1xbet online games login , who are completing their minor in leadership studies, were able to engage the elementary 1xbet online games login with topics, which have been discussed during their leadership studies at K-State.

"It was really great to get out in the community and connect with younger 1xbet online games login in the Manhattan area," said Scott Calovich, senior in family studies and human services. "The children at Woodrow Wilson Elementary, in my experience, truly brightened the road for future leadership."

Woodrow Wilson principal Deb Nauerth has collaborated with the School of Leadership Studies for the past two year to engage her 1xbet online games login with leadership 1xbet online games login from K-State.

"The LEAD 450 1xbet online games login provide a great opportunity for our 1xbet online games login to reflect on the characteristics and qualities of effective leaders," Nauerth said. "Through this activity, they are able to identify positive leadership in their school, community, state and abroad. The K-State 1xbet online games login are models of strong leadership and bring a fun synergy to our classrooms. We are proud of this partnership, as it is a foundation to allow our 1xbet online games login to reflect on their own leadership potential and skills."

School of Leadership Studies 1xbet online games login facilitated small groups with the elementary 1xbet online games login to help engage them on topics of leadership. A brief survey was given to the 1xbet online games login ahead of time to learn who the 1xbet online games login believed were good leaders. Responses from the 1xbet online games login included: Michael Jordan, Gabby Douglas, Martin Luther King Jr., and George Washington.School of Leadership Studies 1xbet online games login helped engage the 1xbet online games login to think about the traits of those leaders that made them good leaders.

"The opportunity to teach sixth-graders at Woodrow Wilson Elementary was quite the experience," said Abby Guenther, senior in food science and industry. "To be able to take leadership principles I have learned throughout college and apply them to my own life, and then share that with younger generations was extremely rewarding. I was able to talk to a girl who wanted to be a zoologist when she gets older. Although I won't be able to see the long-term impact of teaching her about the characteristics of a leader, her youthful attitude and insight of how she planned on becoming a leader made an impact on me."
