Future Heads of the State?

NASHVILLE, TN (August 9, 2006) - Fifty-five student government presidents from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) from across the country participated in an innovative leadership program on the historic campus of Tougaloo College in Tougaloo, Mississippi.

The Annual Nissan Student Government Leadership Program, now in it's second year, is intended to help students learn leadership lessons that will help them to be more successful in student government leadership roles, raise their interest in socio-political issues and hopefully build skills they will be able to use long after graduation.

The program featured four days of leadership training sessions rendered by a cadre of nationally recognized speakers on topics such as the leadership challenges and "Practices in Team Development".
