Student Community Leadership Conference
Join us for a special event focused on student community and leadership!
We are all in this together!
On behalf of the Office of Admissions, the Office of the Vice Provost for Student Affairs, and The Legacy Group Online, we invite you to attend the Student Community Leadership Conference on Thursday, October 3, 2024, hosted at the University of Kansas Lawrence campus in the Kansas Memorial Union. The conference is open to all students but will include programming specific to students with historically underrepresented identities.
The Student Community Leadership Conference (SCLC) aims to provide student leaders with an interactive and engaging leadership experience that will provide a forum for exploring, understanding, and challenging thoughts and ideas about how we value community in our schools. The conference will also give participants a basic understanding of our responsibility to foster a unified environment in our high schools.
Registration will open in late August. Each faculty, staff or student must register as a group through the registration site. While there is no registration fee, there will be a cancellation fee to the high schools for no-shows.
We look forward to seeing you in October!

Parking Information
If your group is traveling via a van/car/personal vehicle: Please register your vehicle in advance. This will enable you to park your vehicle at the Mississippi Parking Garage, which is directly across the street from the Jayhawk Welcome Center, and connected with the Kansas Union. We recommend entering the garage via its east entrance at 1201 Oread Ave, Lawrence, KS 66045 and park on level four of the parking garage.
If your group is traveling via a bus: Students can unload in front of the Kansas Union, along Jayhawk Blvd. Stadium construction at KU has altered the entrance of some streets and parking lots. After drop off, please head to the intersection of 11th Street and Mississippi St. The street is closed to public traffic, but bus and construction vehicles are allowed. Please follow the posted construction signs and directions to reach the parking lot, by entering Lot 92 via the Spencer Art Museum Dr. from Mississippi St. This is labeled in red on the campus map below.
