Global Leaders Series

The Kerschner Family Series Global Leaders

The Series

The Kerschner Family Series Global Leaders at Colgate, launched in 2007 and sponsored by Colgate's Parents' and Grandparents' Fund, has brought to campus notable individuals whose work has had a global impact. Encounters with these world leaders help students themselves to prepare for lives of leadership — to contribute to the advance of local community and global society alike.
