The Student Organization Leadership Conference (SOLC) will provide both new and experienced leaders with helpful information, strategies, and best practices to take your organizations and leadership skills to the next level.  This conference was designed specifically for club leaders and was timed at the beginning of the academic year to set you up for a successful year!  A few more specific benefits:

  • Learn about key policies and campus resources;
  • Personal leadership development sessions will be hosted by the MSU campus partners;
  • Opportunity to connect and collaborate with other club leaders and MSU campus partner;
  • Develop skills and knowledge to better your student organization.

Each registered student organization should send a minimum of one student leader from your club. 

Your club will be ineligible for registration the following year. 

Please do your best to find a student within your club who can attend.  If the students in leadership positions are unable, consider sending anyone in your club that has leadership potential! Up and coming leaders within your club are welcome.  You are also welcome to split the day with someone in your club. If you absolutely cannot find anyone to attend, please contact OSE to find other ways to complete the requirement. We will be offering the SOLC bi-annually and you can attend in the fall. However, you will not be able to register your club until a member has attended either the fall or spring SOLC.
