Dear Monarchs,
We are excited to invite you to participate in the Monarchs Leadership Conference on Friday, February 14, 2025, held both in-person at the Webb Center and online, from approximately 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
We would love for you to be involved in one (or both) of the following ways:
Facilitate a Session with a Student Leader
We invite you or a member of your team to collaborate with a student leader and submit a session proposal for this year’s conference. Sessions are 50 minutes each, running between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on February 14. Options include in-person, online, or hybrid formats. Topics can be varied—last year’s sessions included titles like The Time Management Hack, E-Portfolios: Highlighting Your Leadership Potential through Your Online Presence, Financial Management Strategies for College Students, and Mentorship Panel with ODU Alumni
If you’re interested in facilitating a session, please submit your proposal here: Session Proposal Link. Our soft deadline is December 1, but please reach out if you need additional time.
Encourage Student Attendance
We hope you will also encourage your student employees or interns (both undergraduate and graduate students) to attend all or part of the conference. We’ll provide marketing materials in early January, but you’re welcome to share a ‘Save the Date’ now.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to support and engage with our student leaders. Your involvement will help make the Monarchs Leadership Conference a memorable and impactful experience for everyone.
