Institute for Women in Leadership (IWIL)
The Institute for Women in Leadership (IWIL) is Brevard College’s co-curricular residential learning program that embodies the College's motto, "Learn in Order to Serve" through service to help women gain confidence in their leadership abilities by providing opportunities through service learning programs on and off campus.
IWIL is an intentional learning community that fosters confident, inquisitive young women with a passion for local service through experiential leadership programs.
To maximize their impact on the campus community, IWIL participants are required to live on campus.
