The UK Student Government Leadership Development Program (LDP) is dedicated to building future leaders. Participants of this program have the opportunity to work with various campus organizations, network with student leaders and administrators
and learn how to become a leader on campus and throughout the Lexington community.
LDP offers its members many benefits. The program exposes students to different, as well as similar, mindsets and viewpoints therefore bridging the gaps between various majors and backgrounds. These various viewpoints help in allowing them
to become acclimated early on during their freshman year and create a sense of community. The program also exposes members to different parts of campus, shows them leadership, connects them with Lexington area, teaches them how to start their own student
organizations and connects them with other students at UK, opening up new perspectives and teaching them how UK fits into the greater Lexington community.
LDP students are required to attend three monthly meetings on Tuesdays (beginning October 8th). During these workshops, students learn to lead others, themselves and the community. A wide variety of workshops are offered
to guide each student so they can better understand and drive toward their passions while working together in a collaborative environment.
Applications are due Friday, September 13th at 11:59pm.
If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to the LDP Coordinator, Christina Elsoueidi (sga.ldpcoord@uky.edu).
