Julie A. White, Assistant Director of DCC Student Services, participated in The Community College Student Development Leadership Institute October 31-November 2, 2008 in Albany. Established in 2000 by the National Council on Student Development, the Institute is dedicated to building and fostering a network among participants and facilitators. To date the Institute has graduated 137 participants representing many states across the United States and Canada. Participants benefit by reinforcing a focus on leadership and student development theory. The program is an intensive 2½ day experience that utilizes a modified format adapted from a program that was first sponsored by the California Community College Chief Student Services Officers Association. Candidates are selected from qualified applicants by a committee comprised of the Institute facilitators, some of whom are also members of the Executive Board of the National Council on Student Development.
