Student leader
 | This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2018) |
A student leader is any student who takes on the responsibility of spreading knowledge through inspiration, tutoring, campaigns etc. A student leader strives to change the world by starting with their own community.
Position details[]
Student leadership positions are often made available through an application process . This process varies from school to school and position to position, some being highly selective while others are relatively easy to fill. Some student leadership positions are unpaid while others receive an hourly wage for their work. Many positions that have odd hours or unclear work times will receive a stipend rather than an hourly wage. This is often the case for resident assistants, members of student government, and student representatives on government boards or panels.
In a broader sense, a student leader can take up the responsibility of their community, their city, their country or the world and work towards it with or without the help of a mentor.
Although most student positions on government panels are advisory, the state boards of education of California and Massachusetts include student members with full voting authority.[1]
