The I-LEAD Program at the College of Saint Benedict: Providing Opportunity for Multicultural Leadership

The College of Saint Benedict and partner institution Saint John’s University first implemented the I-LEAD (Intercultural Leadership, Education and Development) Fellowship Program in 2005. The primary goals of the program are to attract, retain, and support students currently underrepresented (geographically, culturally, and socio-economically) on campus. To be eligible for the program, graduating high school students must demonstrate leadership, community service involvement, high academic achievement, and commitment to intercultural understanding.

I-LEAD fellows receive $7,500 scholarships (renewable for up to four years) and benefit from membership in a cohort that extends into the classroom. Fellows participate in a series of enrichment programs each semester and receive mentoring and support from faculty, staff, and other I-LEAD scholars. As I-LEAD scholars progress through college, they share their talents as leaders by mentoring successive I-LEAD students, participating in undergraduate research, and taking on a variety of campus leadership roles. They also participate in national and international service and leadership opportunities, for which the program provides financial support.

The Greenlining Institute

The Greenlining Institute (www.greenlining.org) is a public policy, research, and advocacy organization dedicated to the economic empowerment of communities of color. Their mission is to empower communities of color and low-income communities through multi-ethnic economic and leadership development, civil rights and anti-redlining activities. The vision of the Institute is to utilize our advocacy successes to connect scholarship and public policymaking with the realities facing minority and low-income communities.

The Fellowship program is a year-long training program for young leaders that have completed, at minimum, their undergraduate degrees by the start of the program. Fellows are assigned to specific program areas and develop expertise with the direction of a Program Manager and the Academy Director. Although the curriculum is similar to that of the Associates program, Fellows are given more responsibility and independence to implement projects and programs. Fellows participate in leadership skills workshops, attend power lunch series with key stakeholders, and conduct site visits to community, government, and corporate entities. Fellows receive regular professional and personal skill development and are given opportunities to interact with the media, write reports/press releases, fundraise, testify at key policy hearings, and participate in key meetings with top government officials, corporate CEOs, and political leaders.

Compensation: $32,000 per year/Community stipend of $150 per month/Health Benefits
