Student Organization Leadership Experience

Discover Your Element. Define Your Leadership.

At S.O.L.E. 2025 (Student Organization Leadership Experience), we believe leadership isn’t one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re bold like Fire, grounded like Earth, adaptable like Water, or visionary like Air, your leadership matters — and S.O.L.E. is here to help you own it.

This immersive conference is more than a leadership training — it’s a transformational experience. You’ll explore what makes your style unique, engage in hands-on sessions, build authentic connections with other student leaders, and walk away with tools to create a lasting impact on campus and beyond.

Join us August 28-29, 2025, for the event where every element counts and every leader matters!
