Motivation, Manners Combine In Conference
UM’s Center for Leadership Development will host its 10th annual student leadership conference – "The Perfect Storm: How Ordinary Individuals Create Extraordinary Results" – on Saturday,
March 1.
The conference, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the University Center, will include a keynote address by Chad Crittenden, from the CBS series "Survivor: Vanuatu." One and a half years before he became a "Survivor" castaway, Crittenden had his lower right leg amputated to remove a rare and deadly form cancer. He completed a triathlon nine months later.
After opening remarks from UM Provost Royce Engstrom, Crittenden will tell his story – from surgery to "Survivor" – to help students understand that obstacles are a part of life.
The conference also includes a luncheon led by local etiquette adviser Mr. Manners. Students will have the opportunity to attend additional speakers from various campus groups, including the UM Admissions Office, Multicultural Alliance, the UM art department, Montana Campus Corps, and UM College Republicans and College Democrats.
Conference tickets are available at The Source in the UC and are $8 before Friday, Feb. 22 and $10 after that date. Check-in will start at 8:30 a.m. the day of the conference.
