Room and Board
At the Leadership Institute, you experience what life is like on a college campus. You use the same meeting rooms, dormitory, dining hall and recreational facilities UW-Eau Claire students use. You will have a chance to tour the campus and see classrooms, computer labs and other academic facilities. All facilities are accessible to students with special needs.
You will live in Towers Residence Hall. Rooms are fully furnished and bedding is provided. The building is security locked every night. A Leadership Institute student facilitator lives on each hall wing of your dorm. He/she is available to answer any questions or concerns you may have. An adult, professionally trained hall director also lives in the dormitory. He/she oversees all dorm activities and is trained to handle any emergency.
