SESL's mission is to engage the wisdom of young adults to transform our world.
We believe this generation has untapped potential to bring fresh perspective to the complex challenges our global community faces and to create viable and innovative solutions to address these challenges. SESL strives to catalyze change on a local, regional, and global level by empowering young adults to work collaboratively in teams, to think outside the box, to dream big, and to take action to make a difference.
SESL's overarching goals are:
- To help students develop entrepreneurial goals and skills in a low-risk environment while fostering a culture of social entrepreneurship.
- To promote civic leadership by encouraging teams to generate viable and sustainable solutions to real community challenges that are personally meaningful to them.
- To raise confidence and engagement through the realization that what students think and do can make a difference
- To build valuable real world skills students can draw upon throughout their careers
- To provide educators with experiential, inter-disciplinary, real world learning platform that can be readily integrated into current curriculum and across disciplines each spring semester.
The following five core values and commitments inspire and guide our actions:
Truth Respect Creativity Perseverance Fun
| · | Truth | The foundation of this endeavor is truth, integrity and mutual trust. |
| · | Respect | We respect one another, and the potential that lies within each of us. We hold high expectations for what can result from the talent, ideas, hard work and determination of each student-driven, inclusive team of diverse individuals. |
| · | Creativity | We encourage large visions, great possibilities, unfettered thinking, and continual growth and innovation as ways of approaching the challenges of this program and of life. |
| · | Perseverance | We acknowledge that failure often contains the seeds of success, so we embrace setbacks, obstacles, missteps and other forms of temporary failure as an important part of the challenging, energetic, and nonlinear journey to ultimate achievement and success through perseverance. |
| · | Fun | We expect laughter, humor and fun to be part of the creative, entrepreneurial work of SESL at all levels. |
