Program Courses<br />

STI115 The Symbiosis <strong>of</strong> Teresan, Franciscan & Lasallian Traditions 2 credits<br />

This course provides the broader context for the <strong>Saint</strong> Teresa Leadership and Service Institute students,<br />

and serves as the foundation for our study <strong>of</strong> leadership and service. As a complement to the Lasallian<br />

core traditions courses, this course brings together the study <strong>of</strong> Lasallian traditions with those <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saint</strong><br />

Teresa <strong>of</strong> Avila and <strong>Saint</strong> Francis <strong>of</strong> Assisi. In order to respect and honor the legacy <strong>of</strong> the College <strong>of</strong> <strong>Saint</strong><br />

Teresa, our namesake, this course provides a focused study <strong>of</strong> the Teresan values <strong>of</strong> loyalty, purity and truth<br />

and the Franciscan values <strong>of</strong> charism for the poor, simplicity, and stewardship <strong>of</strong> the earth, among others.<br />

STI215 Leadership Theory and Practice 2 credits<br />

This course surveys the multitude <strong>of</strong> competing leadership theories and styles from a more academic<br />

perspective and method than that <strong>of</strong>ten applied in the pop-culture leadership material. This course<br />

introduces students in the <strong>Saint</strong> Teresa Leadership and Service Institute to a deeper and more<br />

comprehensive understanding <strong>of</strong> what it means to be a leader. Offered in the fall semester.<br />

STI315 Women in Leadership and Service 2 credits<br />

The purpose <strong>of</strong> this course is to provide a focused study <strong>of</strong> the role <strong>of</strong> women in our society today<br />

based on demographic, social, economic and other data. A broad overview <strong>of</strong> the history and state <strong>of</strong><br />

women in our society is presented. Student work focuses on research, writing and presenting on the<br />

role <strong>of</strong> women today and the future role <strong>of</strong> women in their particular field <strong>of</strong> study and areas <strong>of</strong> interest.<br />

Offered in the spring semester.<br />
