The Chidsey Program for Leadership Development prepares Davidson students to exercise leadership in ways that positively impact our campus, community, and world.

We believe that leadership is a choice, and that we all have the potential to "lead from where we are." Through our programs, we invite students to discover and step-into their capacity for leadership. This supports the Davidson College mission to prepare students for lives of leadership and service.
