About the event

The 2018 Pacific Northwest Collegiate Leadership Conference (PNWCLC) is the largest student leadership conference in the region, bringing together more than 500 WSU students across the campus system from a variety of majors, walks of life, and involvement experiences.

Conference registration is open and can be done via CougSync. Registration closes Sept. 7.

This year’s conference will center around the theme of being “Fearlessly Authentic,” and developing personal leadership styles through emotional intelligence, self-empowerment, and compassion.
