HSLI Information
Students

The HSLI allows high school students in their junior year to apply for the opportunity to participate in a summer institute where they study and practice leadership skills and service as a form of community and civic engagement. Students work under the direction of faculty and staff affiliated with the Wartburg Institute for Leadership Education.

HSLI Participants will:

  • Participate in team-building activities and hands-on service projects designed to expand and challenge leadership and service skills.
  • Travel to Chicago to work with Holy Family Lutheran School to work with their summer youth program.
  • Develop a community service project to be implemented in their home communities during their senior year of high school.
  • Work with a trained college student mentor.
  • Create a portfolio and submit it for review to the Institute for Leadership Education.

Successful projects & portfolios result in:

  • 3.5 semester hours of transferable college credit for “LS115: Elements of Leadership."
  • Eligibility for a $1,000 renewable scholarship to Wartburg College ($4,000 value)
The institute will be held 22-28, 2012 at Wartburg College.
*Attendance at the full week institute is required*
