Senior Capstone Experience

The Senior Capstone Experience is one of the requirements for the Goucher Leadership Scholar designation.  A day-long retreat for graduating seniors, this program allows participants to reflect upon their leadership experiences, consider how their values affect their leadership, and think about what they want to do as leaders post-Goucher.  The retreat also encourages students to consider how they have achieved the leadership learning outcomes. 

Following the Senior Capstone Experience retreat, all participants will be asked to meet with the associate director or associate dean of student engagement on an individual basis for follow-up conversations.  In early April, participants make a presentation of their reflections to an audience of supporters.  The accomplishment is celebrated at the Spring Leadership Awards Reception and the students are awarded a medalion to be worn at graduation.
