Leadership Initiatives

The center hosts leadership initiatives that support student leadership development across the college. These include a women's leadership conference luncheon and other workshops and lectures, in which the full campus community is invited.

Katherine M. Bray Women’s Leadership Conference Luncheon

The Annual Katherine M. Bray Women's Leadership Conference Luncheon is an intergenerational exploration of leadership. The conference is designed and run entirely by a student planning committee. The Chidsey Program maintains a strong relationship with conference leaders; providing support and advice as needed. The mission of the conference is to encourage relationships between students and community members by connecting them as conference participants.

For more information and to participate in the conference, email the conference committee at chidseyprogram@davidson.edu.
