The 4rd annual Cross Cultural Leadership Retreat for Ithaca College students will be held on November 4-6, 2005. Presented by the Center for Student Leadership & Involvement and the Office of Multicultural Affairs, this 2 ½ day retreat presents the opportunity to explore various aspects of diversity and their relationship to leadership. During the retreat, the entire group will participate in a series of educational sessions and discuss issues as a large group, as well as in smaller, informal conversations. Transportation, meals, lodging and participant materials are provided at no cost to the participant.
“This retreat opened my eyes to different points of view, gave me the courage to ask questions, and exposed me to the stories of some very brave individuals. CCLR increased my awareness, tolerance, and appreciation of those who are different from me. It gave me the opportunity to discuss topics with my peers that are usually considered taboo. What's more, I met a wonderful group of new students and have established some truly special relationships. CCLR was an experience that I value highly and it was a definite highlight of my freshman year!”
