Dear Colleagues:
We are writing to you to ask for your assistance in spreading the word about an exciting undergraduate
leader development program at the
Center for Women in Government & Civil Society. This program, NEW LeadershipTM New York (NLNY), is part of the National Education for Women's (NEW) Leadership Network.
The goals of NLNY are to strengthen policy knowledge and skills of undergraduate women, and invite
them to become advocates for positive social change. This intensive week-long summer Institute encourages leadership through action, and urges participants upon graduation from the program to develop and lead a campus/community project by offering competitive
mini grant awards. The Institute will be held from Wednesday, May 27, 2015 through Tuesday, June 2, 2015 at the University at Albany campus.
NLNY is open to undergraduate women enrolled at New York State colleges and universities, and to New
York State residents enrolled in colleges and universities outside of New York.
Applications are available online at

Please pass this information along to an aspiring leader, academic deans and department chairs, student
groups, career services offices and other members of the campus community whom you feel would benefit from this information or to anyone who would be interested in this opportunity.
We thank you for your assistance with this matter.
