Student Leadership Advisory Council

The Student Leadership Advisory Council (SLAC) is a collective of leaders from across the University of Chicago who are passionate about making a positive impact on campus and empowering their fellow students to thrive academically, socially, and personally. Through their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and areas of expertise, the members of the Student Leadership Advisory Council collaborate to create innovative programs, address pressing issues, and foster a strong sense of community within the university.

SLAC members must be currently enrolled and in good disciplinary standing at the University of Chicago. Student representatives are inclusive of graduate and undergraduate students on campus, including Center for Leadership and Involvement employees, RSO leaders, and students-at-large.

The advisory council meets once a month and serves as a resource for CLI staff. Members are expected to attend all SLAC meetings; provide feedback/evaluation on CLI leadership development offerings; assist in the marketing and dissemination of information from CLI to the campus community; and suggest areas of growth and collaboration for CLI leadership development initiatives.
