The leadership at the LEC is selected through consensus
based on the enthusiasm and resourcefulness of the individuals. These
positions will rotate each semester to ensure that all interested members
have the opportunity to develop leadership skills through actual experience,
and to allow for constant revitalization of the organization by the input of
new ideas and positive energy.
The leadership for the Fall 2004 Semester committee is still
under consideration, contact us if you would like to actively participate
in the LEC's.
