With the many changes we are experiencing at global, national, and local levels, we are challenged to establish new approaches to these issues. Just as technology and a new world order have illustrated the need to work toward a shared sense of "global community," shifting tides in our government and society have called into question the point and purpose of education in America. An American Imperative: Higher Expectations for Higher Education (1993, Johnson Foundation), commonly known as the "Wingspread Report," begins, "the world our children inhabit is vastly different than the one we inherited. An increasingly open, global economy requires that all of us be better educated, more skilled, more adaptable, and more capable of working collaboratively. " American society has never been static, but now the change is accelerating. For example: • The United States is becoming more diverse: by the year 2020, about one-third of U.S. citizens will be members of minority groups. • New information and technologies are accelerating change and reshaping the way the world lives, works, and plays. • Society's values are shifting. A generation ago, Americans were confident that the core values which had served our nation well in the past could guide it into the future. Today, societal values are shifting from "Honesty is the best policy" to "Don't get involved" and "It is cheating only if you get caught." • Women and members of minority groups have increasingly assumed their place and immigrants and refugees from once-distant lands have remade the face of the United States. • The nuclear family of the Fifties no longer typifies the American family. • Computers used to take up entire rooms, operators stood by to help with transatlantic calls, and many families watched the clock each afternoon until local television stations began their evening broadcasts. Today, microprocessors, miniaturization and fiber optics have made information instantly available ~ transforming the way we manage our institutions, the way we entertain ourselves, and the way we do our business. • Global competition is transforming the economic landscape. Our great national strengths have been challenged, the gap between rich and poor has widened, and the nation's economic energy has been sapped by budget and trade deficits. DEMAND FOR CHANGE & A CALL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LEADERSHIP IN HIGHER EDUCATION Our thinking and many of our institutions, including our educational institutions, are still organized as though none of these changes had occurred. The 3400 institutions of higher learning in America operate as though their focus were still the traditional student of days gone by: a white, male, recent high school graduate, who attended classes full-time at a four-year institution and lived on campus. The traditional student, is in fact, today's exception. There are more women than men on today's campuses. Forty-three percent of today's students are over the age of 25, including 300,000 over the age of 50. Minority Americans now make up about 20% of enrollments in higher education. Almost as many students attend part-time and intermittently as attend full-time and without interruption. More students are enrolled in community colleges than in four-year institutions, and there are more students living at home or off-campus than there are in residence halls. The nations colleges and universities are enmeshed in society's crisis of values. Intolerance on campus is on the rise, half of big-time college sports programs have been caught cheating in the last decade, and there are many reports of ethical lapses by administrators and faculty members. In addition, half of those entering college full-time do not have a degree within five years and half of all students entering Ph.D. programs never attain the degree. Finally, public polls reveal that Americans have a profound respect for higher education and yet are overwhelmed by sticker shock when it considers college costs. Clearly, an incongruence exists between what American society needs from higher education and what it is receiving. Society requires that Higher Education do a better job of passing on to the next generation a sense of the value of diversity and the critical importance of honesty, decency, integrity, compassion, and personal responsibility in a democratic society. Above all, we must get across the idea that the individual flourishes best in a genuine community to which the individual in turn has an obligation to contribute. That is, society needs graduates able to assume leadership roles in American life. LOOKING FOR ANSWERS So, where do we go from here? What steps need to be taken to ensure a brighter future and a higher ideal. In "A Call for Student Leadership, Collaborative Approaches for Responsible Change," (Astin, 1995). Astin and others site, a need for a new generation of leaders who can effect positive change in local, national, and international affairs. Finding a more effective means for developing the leadership talents of American College students requires not only that new methods of teaching critical leadership skills be devised, but also that the notion of leadership itself be broadened and re-conceptualized. More than anything else, leadership needs to be conceived of as a collaborative process for effective positive social change. And rather than focusing solely on those who hold traditionally-recognized positions of leadership, we must broaden our notion of who a "leader" is so that many more Americans are empowered and able to lead in the near and distant future. Higher education has a vital role to play in educating future leaders. Developing the next generation of leaders is a special challenge for American colleges and universities, given the increasing complexity and fluidity of our myriad social, economic, political, and educational problems. The diversity of people and institutions in higher education provides us with the challenge and the opportunity to expand our notions about leadership and its development based on a model embedded in values and collective action. Both the curriculum and co-curriculum provide rich opportunities for recruiting and developing leaders. Co-curricular experiences not only can support and augment the students formal classroom and curricular experience, but can also create powerful learning opportunities for leadership development through collaborative group projects that serve the institution or the community. These projects can be implemented through residential living, service-learning, community work, and student organizations. THE EVOLUTION OF UNLV The Wingspread Report and Astin's "A Call for Student Leadership," in addition to the general state of our global and national community, issue a wake-up call for higher education. At UNLV, this call is being addressed in a variety of ways. We are in the midst of re-writing our mission and formulating new strategies at all levels. With a new President, our University community is engaged in a process of dialogue and planning intended to clearly establish the future of this institution. It is through this process that we are working to break down the communication barriers between the many departments and individual units to develop a new, inter-connected community of learners. In 1994, in response to the changes and challenges facing our institution, the Division of Student Services addressed the need to restructure its departments to respond more efficiently and effectively to needs of the students at UNLV. The restructuring process resulted in the Student Life Unit, comprised of seven departments: Campus Community Development, Campus Housing, Campus Recreational Services, Disability Resource Center, Multicultural Student Affairs, Student Health Center, and Student Psychological Services. As the Student Life Unit, these departments sponsored student focus groups to determine students needs and perceptions of the campus. The outcomes of the process revealed that students felt very detached from the university. Students perceived that the campus was unfriendly and that there was no concern for them. The majority of our students are commuters, yet no commuter student affairs were being addressed. We also receive a high number of transfer students who need to be integrated into the community. With the information gathered from these focus groups, the Student Life Unit defined and established the following vision/mission statement to address the issues: The Student Life Unit, through collaborative connections with students, enhances the student's collegiate experience by fostering an atmosphere of inclusion, mutual respect, and community. Services and programs are designed to meet students' needs thus enabling their involvement in and commitment to learning. In addition, the Student life Unit provides opportunities for life skill development through purposeful activities, events, and programs that complement the student's academic progress. Through these efforts, Student Life contributes to the student's holistic development, academic persistence, and overall quality of life. After defining this common vision/mission statement, the Student Life Unit began to identify areas that should be addressed to further its goals. Being that we want to provide "...opportunities for life skill development through purposeful activities, events, and programs...11 and that" ...creating a nation of learners ..." is one of the three main issues identified by the Wingspread Report, the Student Life Unit created a process group to address the issue of leadership. The Leadership Process Group was created to act as a vehicle through which the Student Life Unit could interdepartmentally address the need for leadership development while learning how to work together, across our departmental contexts. Within this forum the members have sought to challenge traditional ways of viewing leadership development and to create a mutually agreed upon approach to leadership. The goal is not only to create an approach to "leadership," but to devise strategies through which the Unit can collaboratively recruit, educate, and develop student leaders at UNLV. To get started on developing a working definition, we reviewed current literature on leadership. This review included: "A Social Change Model of Leadership Development" (Higher Education Research Institute, Astin, Astin, et.al, 1994), "Defining Leadership: Can We See the Forest for the Trees?" (Burns, 1995), and "The Student Learning Imperative" (Kuh, Schroeder, et.al, 1994). Much of the literature seemed to encourage new models of leadership development that are value or quality based rather than skill or goal driven. Our next step was to survey our staff and students to reveal their individual thoughts and ideas on "leadership" so that we could gain a better understanding of their perspectives. To do this, we created a definition for them to read and consider. The definition, "the process of making intentional choices to foster a more ideal state for self and others," brought forth a wide range of ideas while uncovering a distinct qualitative difference between the general student perspective and that of professional staff. Though everyone agreed that altruistic behavior was at the heart of leadership, students seemed to see "leadership" as a set of skills or qualities while staff regarded leadership as goal accomplishment. That is, students tended to view "leadership" as "who you are as a person," while staff viewed it as "what you do as a person." Our conclusion? Clearly, our working definition for our community would need to validate this diversity of perspectives. A PROPOSAL FOR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT The Leadership Process Group is proposing the use of the following seven "values," taken from the Astins' "A Call for Student Leadership, Collaborative Approaches for Responsible Change" as building blocks for Student Life Unit leadership development strategies. These values should be used as criteria in both the development and design of new projects as well as a lens with which to review current programs and interventions. We believe that this approach supports the notions of altruism, personal integrity, and action and should, therefore, find support among the professional and student members of our UNLV community. 1. Consciousness of self and others through self reflection means being aware of the values, emotions, attitudes and beliefs that motivate one to take action, including how one understands others. 2. Congruencv means thinking, feeling, and behaving with consistency, genuineness, authenticity, and honesty toward others. 3. Commitment implies intensity and duration. It requires a significant involvement and investment of one's self in the activity and its intended outcomes. It is the energy that drives the collective effort. 4. Collaboration is the primary means of empowering others and self through trust. Collaboration can occur when one has trust in the diversity of multiple talents and perspectives of the group members and the power of that diversity to generate create solutions and actions. 5. Common Purpose is to work with shared aims and values. It implies the ability to engage in collective analysis of the issues at hand and the tasks to be undertaken. It requires that all members of the group participate actively in articulating the purpose and goals of the leadership development activity. 6. Controversy with Civility recognizes two fundamental realities of any group effort: that differences in viewpoint are inevitable and valuable, and that such differences must be aired openly but with civility. 7. Citizenship describes the process whereby the self is responsibly connected to the environment and the community. It acknowledges the interdependence of all involved in the leadership effort. Citizenship thus recognizes that effective democracy involves individual responsibility as well as individual rights. So how do we make this happen? First, commitment to this concept must be attained from the campus community. Student support will be solicited through the four student leadership bodies that represent the broad student constituencies on this campus; CSUN, Residence Hall Association, Ethnic Student Council, and Greek Councils. The staff of the Student Life Unit, as individuals working most closely with student leadership development, have already endorsed the concept put forth in this proposal. Leadership Development has been defined as an action item for university goal accomplishment by the University Task Force on Planning. The proposed concept of leadership development will be shared with the appropriate planning committees once the implementation phase of the strategic planning process is initiated. Second, in order to move from the concept of leadership to the implantation of the concept, a leadership development planning committee, comprised of students, staff, and faculty will be formed. This committee will have the responsibility for the design of UNLV's approach to leadership development based on the seven criteria for leadership development. Third, following the implementation of the leadership concept, a campus-wide committee will be formed to provide guidance for the continued evolution of student leadership development on this campus. The Leadership Process Group of the Student Life Unit requests your endorsement of this proposal. We believe a collaborative approach to developing student leadership on this campus is in the best interest of our students, our university, our community, and our society. Thank you for your consideration.
