You may have done leadership training before, but you have never done it like this! LEADtogether is the nation’s first leadership training program that takes place in the virtual world. Undergraduate students from all of Kent State University's eight campuses are invited to join the adventure this spring. You will gain leadership experience working with progressively larger groups of people, starting out in pairs and moving up to groups of six. All participants interact through their own anonymous, virtual avatar and work with fellow teammates to meet more challenging goals in an online gaming interface.

Kent State University extends its campus community to the world of social media for information sharing, relationship building, listening and engaging in online conversations. Social media platforms are used to extend the Kent State University brand and foster engagement with current students, prospective students, alumni and other audiences of the Kent State community with the following goals in mind: customer service, peer to peer assistance, and communication and information sharing, including crisis communication.
