NU Activities
The Asian American Center is committed to increasing the number of Asian American students represented in leadership positions at Northeastern University. It is essential that leadership roles are fulfilled by students from diverse backgrounds to reflect the composition of the student body. To assist us in our effort, we have comprised a list of the different programs and activities offered at NU which you should consider being involved.

LEAD 360 builds on the idea that everyone has the capacity to lead. LEAD 360 believes that leadership is dimensional and is gained through every experience a person has. The research a student conducts, the co-op position a student holds, the cultures a student learns about while studying abroad, the service a student provides for the community, and the club sport in which a student is involved, have all added to one being a leader. In simple words, LEAD 360 believes in the philosophy that leadership is holistic.

RAs work and interact with, on average between 40 and 60 residents. Therefore, they need to be aware of and sensitive to the needs, values, and lifestyles of many different people. This requires that RAs be open, supportive, and confident. RAs are supervised by professional staff who help with training, provide support, facilitate team building, and help develop RAs through one-on-one supervision.
