Hello,
My name is Leigh Barnes, Director of Student Activities at DeKalb
College, South Campus in Decatur, Georgia.
I am in the process of writing a grant proposal for a student leadership
program at my campus. One of the components of the program is a Leader
in Residence Speaker series. It is designed to bring in guest lecturers
from the community to speak on leadership issues ranging from careers,
current events to personal welfare. Representatives will be from all
facets (government, business, service, etc) I have compiled a list of
local and national representatives which include:
