Dole Leadership Prize
Each Fall semester, the Dole Institute of Politics honors an individual or group whose leadership through honorable service in our democracy has served to inspire others. KU students and the community are invited to an event, usually at KU’s Lied Center of Kansas, for an evening lecture by or “conversation with” the recipient of the Dole Leadership Prize.
