GMercyU Leadership Conferences

Each year, GSLI holds a campus-wide leadership conference where the entire GMercyU community is invited to participate. All Griffins are encouraged to attend these leadership conferences, whether you're a member of GSLI or not.

Past presenters have included Pamela Rainey Lawler, founder of Philabundance and Dr. Tom Segar, Vice President for Student Affairs at Shepherd University.
