Mather Character development is a central function of higher education. This phenomenological study describes Black women’s personal lived experiences with character development and ethical leadership development at Spelman College, America’s oldest historically Black college for women. The following research question guided the study: How do students at a historically Black women’s college describe their experiences with character development and ethical leadership development? The study also explored student’s thoughts about the academic and co-curricular programs that best prepared them to be ethical leaders. Interviews were conducted with 10 graduating seniors from the Class of 2014 Women of Excellence Leadership (WEL) series offered by the Center for Leadership and Civic Engagement at Spelman College. Eight alumnae members of the WEL program were also interviewed to provide their thoughts about character development and ethical leadership development.
