Abstract
On campuses across the country, students and professional staff are considering student interfaith leadership as one way that students act on their core values to make a positive difference in the world. This kind of student leadership can be framed through student leadership models like the social change model of leadership development. Better Together, a national campaign for student interfaith action, draws heavily on this leadership model to offer a framework specific to student interfaith leadership. The authors of this article describe interfaith leadership using a leadership development model with which many higher education professionals are familiar.
