The Team Leader program at the Burnett Honors College became an important component of the Honors Symposium course during the 1996-1997 academic year. During the fall semester, Team Leaders serve as teaching assistants for the Honors Symposium course and mentors for groups of 15-20 first-year BHC Scholars. The Team Leader program recruits outstanding honors students at the sophomore through senior levels to serve as role models and guides for first-year Burnett Honors Scholars. Each Team Leader is selected on the basis of a rigorous process that includes group interviews, an evaluation of academic standing, and leadership in other areas of the university life. Team Leaders attend a three-day retreat in order to gain a better understanding of their role in Honors Symposium. Additionally, they attend weekly meetings to discuss and learn how to better serve and support the students in their break out groups.

Team Leaders are responsible for...
- Leading breakout discussions with their team members following each lecture
- Monitoring their team members’ assignments and attendance
- Organizing various social and cultural events for their team members
- Serving as liaisons between the Burnett Honors College and their students
- Participating in a leadership development retreat and weekly meetings
