CBU ENVISION Application

ENVISION is a leadership program specially designed for students (freshmen and sophomores) at CBU to develop leadership skills by tackling campus issues through an intensive process of research and collaboration.

Through ENVISION, students work in small teams in the spirit of continuous improvement to develop a plan for an administrative-identified campus issue. Participants research what has been done in the past, develop a new proposal, and receive feedback from campus professionals along the way. This method of experiential learning allows students to become more aware and effective leaders at CBU.

The nine-week program familiarizes students with CBU and the inner workings of the CBU administration and student organizations while they work on resolving a campus issue of interest to the overall student body. Weekly sessions allow participants to learn more about fundamental elements of leadership while actively reflecting and working together on projects. ENVISON is a great way for students to learn how to be a leader at CBU through hands-on experience.

Upon completion of the 9-week program, ENVISION teams present their projects to the campus community at a celebratory closing program. While it is difficult to solve a problem in only a few weeks, during this time, students have developed a plan for how to continue addressing the issue in the future.
