Who Are Student Leaders?
Otis College Student Leaders serve as role models, mentors, and foster an environment that supports the academic and personal development of all Otis College students. Holding a student leadership position on campus is a valuable opportunity for students to develop skills that will benefit them both personally and professionally.
