Register for LeaderShape Catalyst!
The Fall 2026 session of Catalyst™ will be held on Saturday, September 26th from 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM in the Memorial Union Building. All participants will receive free workshop materials, lunch, and a gift. Please RSVP by the end of the day on Saturday, September 20th, so we can ensure we have adequate food and supplies for all participants.
What is Catalyst?
Catalyst™ is a great entry into the LeaderShape® community. It is a one-day program focused on developing your own authentic path, connecting to groups and causes you care about, and committing to a plan to be a catalyst for yourself and the groups you’re part of.
Throughout the program, you’ll consider powerful questions that move you towards action:
Am I on the right path? Who do I want to be? How can I connect with other like-minded individuals? In small-group dialogue, large-group interaction, and personal reflection, you’ll learn alongside others who also want to start something extraordinary.
The Active Responsibility of Citizenship
Did you know that when polled nationally:
- ⅓ of Americans cannot name the three branches of government
- ⅔ of Americans cannot name three of the five specific rights protected under the First Amendment
- Over 50% of Americans do not know how long a senator’s term in office is
If you find this concerning, we invite you to join us for a guest lecture with Lindsey Cormack for a candid breakdown of what constitutional democracy asks of each of us on Tuesday, September, 22, at 7 pm at the Rozsa Center for the Performing Arts.
President John F. Kennedy famously urged Americans in 1961 to “ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Many of us still struggle to answer that question today. Dr. Cormack, author of How to Raise a Citizen, will draw on her work in civic education, congressional history, and political communication to help audiences look past the political polarization and congressional chaos to consider how we can be active citizens. Her presentation offers a practical roadmap for taking an active role in strengthening our public institutions and shaping the future for the next generation.
This lecture is partially funded by the Visiting Professor Program, which is funded by a grant to the Office of the Provost from the State of Michigan’s King-Chávez-Parks Initiative. It is also a part of the Van Evera Distinguished Lecture Series through the Rozsa Center for the Performing Arts, with additional sponsorship through the League of Women Voters of the Copper Country and Michigan Tech Huskies Vote.
This event is open to the public, and all are welcome to attend.
Michigan Technological University is an Equal Opportunity Educational Institution/Equal Opportunity Employer that provides equal opportunity for all, including protected veterans and individuals with disabilities.
