Student leadership at Earlham College<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBecause I said so,\u201d isn\u2019t a phrase you\u2019ll hear much at Earlham. Here, leadership is about more than job titles. To us, leading means seeing new possibilities, daring to express your ideas, listening to others\u2019 points of view and building consensus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why you will have opportunities to lead beginning in your first semester on campus. You can choreograph a number for Dance Alloy, start a kayaking club or volunteer to teach English in the Richmond community. The ways that you can lead at Earlham are as diverse as your interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way we govern the college also reflects our understanding of leadership. We discuss many issues as a whole community, from our athletic conference affiliation to our policy about alcohol. More specific policy recommendations are made by campus committees, and students are eligible to serve on them beginning in their first year on campus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Earlham, we don\u2019t fight to the top. We\u2019re invited to collaborate. However you choose to lead, we\u2019re eager to have you join in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Earlham Student Government (ESG) is responsible for representing the student body of the College. The organization and constitution of the ESG was approved by Earlham students in 2016 and was recently under review by the Constitutional Review Committee. The ESG Process Keeper office was formerly located in the basement of Runyan Center. When active, Student Government members are available to address problems or provide advice and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
