Oklahoma State University has named 98 incoming freshmen to its President’s Leadership Council for the 2012-2013 school year.  PLC is a freshmen scholarship and academic leadership program that emphasizes the importance of leadership and service throughout life.
 

"To meet the challenges of the 21st Century, Oklahoma needs to develop creative, ethical, inclusive, and effective leaders," said Stephen Haseley, Director President’s Leadership Council.  "Oklahoma State University’s President’s Leadership Council will meet this challenge through an academic yearlong course of instruction, scholarship, service-learning field experiences, leadership conference development and implementation for high school seniors, and international study.  This year’s members of PLC, like previous participants in this program, will enhance their understanding of ethics and leadership and make positive contributions to this University, the State of Oklahoma, the nation, and the world.”
