SLAG 101 PROGRAM

Each brother in our fraternity strives to live the four components of SLAG in his everyday life: Scholar, Leader, Athlete, and Gentleman. Each component is incredibly important, but only one component involves directly imparting the values and skills a man possesses to others around him; that piece is Leader. If he is not a leader, he will not be able to help others grow their ability to learn, competitive drive, and moral character.

This program is designed to help brothers cultivate the L. In the college experience, students learn many things about the world in classes based on an area of study. However, the concept of leadership is something that people learn in a much different way. As a result, this course is not a class in the traditional sense. It proves to be more like an interactive seminar. The students in the class are not required to buy a textbook, as textbooks on the topic of leadership often include some useful information diluted by an overbearing amount of unnecessary, extraneous information.

You do not have to be the president of a company or an organization to be a successful leader in life. Leadership takes many forms. No matter what job title you have or economic status you hold, you can make a positive impact on others in order to inspire them to become better people. The primary goal of this class is to look around, take a leap outside the comfort zone, and start considering leadership opportunities around campus and beyond. In the long run, it will drastically improve the quality of a Pikes life.
