Staley School of Leadership Studies selects 2018-2019 class of Snyder Leadership Legacy Fellows

Friday, April 6, 2018

 

MANHATTAN — The Staley School of Leadership Studies at Kansas State University has selected students for the fourth class of the Snyder Leadership Legacy Fellows Program.

The program honors Bill Snyder, head coach of the Kansas State University football team, and his dedication to the university, the Staley School of Leadership Studies, his players and the university's students by continuing his work in developing high impact leaders on campus, in their communities, in their states and beyond, said Marcia Hornung, program director and instructor of leadership studies.

Selected for the program based on their demonstrated leadership skills and potential, the fellows will engage in a variety of leadership development workshops, activities and events during the 2018-2019 academic year, kicking off with an intensive retreat in May.

"K-State head football coach Bill Snyder is known as a developer of leaders whose legacy continues to have a tremendous impact that extends far beyond the game of football," Hornung said. "Coach Snyder's '16 Goals for Success' have been embraced by many as guiding principles for success in life — in family, community and career. The Staley School, in partnership with K-State Athletics, is honored to offer a program to facilitate leadership development for students based on Coach Snyder's goals for success."
