Student Keynote Speaker Application

 

One of the greatest highlights of the Central Student Leadership Drive-in is the Student Keynote Speaker, chosen from one of the attending delegations. Similar to years past, the planning committee has decided to have two Student Keynotes! One speaker will open the conference to pump the audience and introduce the “Drive in to Leadership” theme. The second speaker will provide an inspirational send-off at the end of the conference. This send-off should excite the audience enough to take the amazing information they learned at the conference back to their respective institutions.
