2025 SD Campus Network Leaders' Summit (Inviting school teams!)

2025 SD Campus Network Leaders' Summit (Inviting all school teams!)

Come join us at The George Washington University for the 2025 SD Campus Network Leaders' Summit! We're excited to invite your chapter to send two student leaders and one advisor to the SDCN Summer Leaders' Summit in July 2025 to connect, share ideas, and learn from each other. With a focus on networking and learning skills to bring back to shift campus culture, this summit promises to be an enriching experience for all attendees. Don't miss out on this chance to be a part of a vibrant community of campus leaders learning to build a culture of productive dialogue on campus. See you there

Attendees at the Leaders' Summit plan for recruiting moderators, participants, and holding events and campaigns throughout the year. They also get key content knowledge to guide their approaches to difficult topics throughout the year. This is a separate event from the Moderator Workshop held annually on each campus.

Who: We recommend sending teams of 3 people made up of 2 student leaders and 1 advisor. This is the most important event for planning how to organize dialogue groups on campus each year through Sustained Dialogue. Remember: your team should be the people most directly responsible for the direction of dialogue events or clubs on campus this coming year.
