L.E.A.D. with leadership, empowerment, achievement and diversity
Bears L.E.A.D. is an initiative created out of Missouri State’s commitment to providing a welcoming, supportive environment for all students. We serve to immerse diverse and first-generation students into the college experience while enhancing their academic success through:
- monthly community meetings
- monthly one-on-one success coaching and mentoring
- social events
- access to our quiet study space with computers, printers, and snacks
- opportunities to build community with peers, faculty, and staff
Our transition programming is designed for first- and second-year students. Bears L.E.A.D. students who meet semester requirements receive a $150 bookstore stipend.
