The Student Development Seminar is an annual retreat held each summer for students interested in exploring their life goals and leadership identity.

Seminar Signature
The focus of the Student Development Seminar is the enhancement of skills that will assist you as you become a significant contributor in the world. The seminar poses questions and presents issues that challenge assumptions and help strengthen intellectual resources.

The Why
The Student Development Seminar is an opportunity for you and other colleagues to explore life goals, leadership skills, professional values, and ethical integrity. The concept of creative thinking and the challenging of current assumptions will weave our conversation throughout the seminar.

On Leadership
The world is in great need of leadership. In order to provide leadership, we must manage our own character, integrity, acts, words and wisdom. Join us for a study of leadership, values and creativity.

The Environment
The Student Development Seminar is held on the magnificent grounds of the Menucha Retreat and Conference Center in Corbett, Oregon. Menucha, originally the summer home of Oregon’s Governor Meier, is set on a high bluff overlooking the Columbia River. With one hundred acres of lawn, woodlands, and gardens, Menucha is a place for study and reflection.
