Office of Intercultural Leadership

Arleny Alvarez-Peña, Director

The Office of Intercultural Leadership (ILEAD) is under the leadership of the Office of the President and the Assistant to the President for Diversity. The mission of the Office is to assist the College in providing the campus community an opportunity to engage cross culturally around activities targeting leadership development.

What Do WE Do?

WE supply direct student services through educational programs, workshops, and campus events, which are also open to the community at large.

WE provide a home, resources for development, and opportunities geared specifically towards underrepresented students [i.e. ALANA (African, Latino/a, Asian, & Native American) & LGBTQI (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, & Intersex) students]. However all students shall have an opportunity to engage cross culturally around activities targeting leadership development.

WE support underrepresented student based organizations such as Spectrum the ALANA Student Union and Identity our LGTBQI student organization. These organizations allow traditionally underrepresented students to have a voice on the college campus and further aid in their development here at Saint Rose.

WE offer our ALANA is Leadership Mentorship Program as a retention program for First Year ALANA students. The Mentorship Program provides First Year Students with a Peer Mentor and Professional Mentor that will serve as a resource, motivational coach, and guide towards academic success!
