Hello Yellow Jacket Community,

The Center for Student Engagement is committed to celebrating the contribution of Registered Student Organization members and leaders. Student Organizations make up an incredible part of the fabric of Georgia Tech and without dedicated students, our campus would lack these spaces of innovation and camaraderie. The Celebrating Student Leadership project tells the story of individual students who are committed to the mission of their student organizations and exemplifies the spirit of Progress and Service. The students highlighted are a celebration of student impact, commitment, and community.

Most importantly, the staff in the Center for Student Engagement are grateful for the Georgia Tech students who make the Yellow Jacket experience so unique! The five areas that make up the Center for Student Engagement are Civic Engagement, Fraternity & Sorority Life, Student Media, John Lewis Student Leadership Pathways, and Student Organizations. While Tech is known for world-renowned academic programs, we are invigorated daily by the Center’s mission to invest in the empowerment and support of student organizations and student leaders who we know catalyze belonging and an engaged campus experience. Please join us in celebrating one of Georgia Tech’s most incredible resources, our student leaders.

In Progress and Service,  

Dr. Kristina Clement
Associate Dean & Director, Center for Student Engagement

2025 Student Leaders Honorees

The Center for Student Engagement is committed to celebrating the contribution of Registered Student Organization members and leaders. Student organizations make up an incredible part of the fabric of the Yellow Jacket community and without dedicated students, our campus would lack these spaces of community, innovation, and camaraderie.

The Celebrating Student Leadership project highlights the stories of individual students who are committed to the mission of their organization and exemplify the spirit of Progress and Service. Thirty-two students are chosen based on their impact of campus engagement, commitment to the mission of their respective organizations, and commitment to their peers. These students were recognized at Georgia Tech’s annual Up with the White and Gold awards ceremony on April 7, 2025.
