Students at Salisbury University, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore, and Wor‐Wic will be eligible for recognition of their leadership activities under a new program just announced by the Greater Salisbury Committee (GSC), and the three schools of higher education. Each student winner will receive a $1,000 cash award and recognition, jointly from their institution and the Greater Salisbury Committee. “Improving a community depends on its quality of leadership,” said T. Jan Wiseman, executive director of GSC. “College students are our future and we want to recognize the tremendous work that many of them already are doing today for the community, and then use their examples to encourage other future leaders to get involved,” added Wiseman. The new awards program is an outgrowth of GSC’s long history of helping improve the community through leadership development and recognition. Present and past leadership programs by the Greater Salisbury Committee have sought to improve leadership skills of K‐12 educators in the tri‐county area through the Academy for Leadership in Education. Improving political discourse was GSC’s goal through the Civic and Governmental Leadership Academy. Community-wide conversations on basic issues such as education, growth, and crime, brought together many on the Lower Eastern Shore through the Community Leaders Workshop. Administrators in each of the three schools will be announcing the recognition competition in their school this month, including the process and procedures. The school coordinators for the Leadership Awards include:  Salisbury University ‐ Robby Sheehan, deputy chief of staff, at 227 Holloway Hall; University of Maryland Eastern Shore – Walter Woods, assistant director of development, at J. T. Williams Hall; and WorWic Community College ‐ Katherine Jones, director of student activities, at The Hazel Center.… READ MORE
