Five Randolph students earned special diplomas earlier this week—not from the College, but from the City of Lynchburg.
Torie Slaughter ’20, Devon Davis ’20, Anthony Fonnesu ’20, Alex Conway ’20, and Will Dakin ’21 each participated in Leadership Lynchburg’s Leading Off Campus institute. In the inaugural program, the students honed their professionalism and leadership skills in a series of sessions from August through December. Topics included team-building, career management, intercultural fluency, oral and written communication, and critical thinking and decision-making.
In addition to developing these skills, the students had the opportunity to learn more about the Lynchburg region and to network with local employers.
