Many elements contribute to the spirit of community that exists among LBJ School students, including the School's small size, the team approach to research and problem solving, and a shared interest in public service and leadership. Opportunities to exercise leadership range from participating in student government to organizing panel discussions and debates to editing the School's student-run scholarly journal. These activities are an essential part of the LBJ School experience, creating new avenues for self-expression and teamwork.
