Leadership Corvallis class of 2012 underway

Twenty-nine area residents have been accepted into Leadership Corvallis, a 10-month program focusing on leadership and volunteer opportunities in the Corvallis area. Presentations, site tours and panel discussions educate participants about the institutions, agencies and processes that make Corvallis work.

The second Thursday of each month, participants gather for a day-long session covering one segment of community life in Corvallis in a curriculum keyed to Vision 2020, the city’s governing planning document.
With a new theme, “The Most Beautiful College Town,” this year’s Leadership Corvallis class will also explore the myriad benefits and challenges of Corvallis’ “town and gown” atmosphere.

In addition to Corvallis/Oregon State University dynamics, the curriculum will cover a wide range of topics, including land-use planning, human services, health care, government and public services, education, economic vitality, natural resources, Corvallis culture and community leadership.

Tuition for the program, often paid by a sponsoring employer, is $550. For information on applying for the 2012-2013 Leadership Corvallis class, visit www.leadershipcorvallis.com.
