The LASC-50 years of Leadership Development and Excellence at NSU

The Louisiana Association of Student Councils held its annual workshop at Northwestern State University this week June 2-6. The meeting, held at NSU for the past 50 years, brought together 340 high school student leaders from every corner of the Bayou State for a week of fun, leadership development, and education.

The student council members were divided into small groups with whom they would spend the week, making friends from all over Louisiana. The theme of the workshop was “LASC Your Greatest Adventure.” The students learned the ins and outs of running successful meetings, achieving goals as well as developing leadership skills. St. Mary’s and NCHS both sent strong contingents of student leaders who well represented our community.

Next week will see several hundred middle school students who serve on their schools’ student councils arrive at NSU for a week of fun and learning.

The Natchitoches Parish Journal wishes all the best to these hard working young men and women as they complete their high school careers. We hope you learned a lot and enjoyed the university’s hospitality. Come back to NSU after your graduation and build your future!
