National Leadership Forum

The American Studies Institute is proudly preparing for the Harding University’s 62nd Annual of the National Leadership Forum in Searcy, Arkansas, June 3-8, 2018. The theme for 2018 is Real Heroes. The cost is $145 for the week. This is an outstanding value. During this program, student leaders in grades 9-12 will explore the economic and cultural principles that were the foundation of civilization in the Western Hemisphere. Through labs, lectures, and open discussion sessions, they will become more equipped to preserve the ideas upon which America was founded, including personal freedom, strong leadership and excellent character. As Lawrence W. Reed has said, “If you want to live in a free society, you must assign top priority to raising the caliber of your character.” Students should be rising 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th graders. They must have excellent character and demonstrate leadership ability. A reference form is required for each student that wishes to attend to attest to leadership and character.
