Leadership Institute hosts dinner, discussion on ethics
Imagination, passion and contribution were the buzz words at the ninth annual Leadership Institute Thursday night.

The theme for the evening was “the mystery behind leadership.” A gourmet three-course dinner was served as TCU trustee Scott Colglazier spoke about the ethics of leadership to a packed room at the Dee J. Kelly Alumni and Visitors Center.

“Leadership is about touching something in the lives of other people,” Colglazier said.

After the speech, table hosts led discussions for community leaders and students by presenting three ethically controversial scenarios.

Kate Carrico, Leadership Council chairwoman, said the number of students this year is double last year. She said the Leadership Institute changed its format this year from a two-day conference to just a dinner because there was not enough interest in the conference. The institute is important because it fosters relationships between students and community leaders, she said.
