🎉🍕 Signature FILC Experiences You Don’t Want to Miss! 🍕🎉
FILC is bringing the fun and the connection with two signature student engagement events, both proudly sponsored by FILC and designed to help students connect, grow, and shine.
🎥 FILC Video Contest
Get creative and tell your story! This is a group video per school, giving students the opportunity to highlight their leadership journey, educational goals, and what FILC means to them. It’s a fun, interactive way to build connections before, during, and after the conference, show school spirit, and celebrate the global FILC community. Participation is optional—but highly encouraged 😉
🎤 Elevator Pitch Competition
Ready to make a powerful first impression? In this solo competition, students will deliver a 60-second elevator pitch to a panel of judges, showcasing their strengths, skills, and leadership potential. This is a great opportunity to practice professional communication, gain confidence, and stand out—plus prizes will be awarded to the top 3 presenters 🏆
✨ These events are always conference favorites, creating unforgettable moments, meaningful conversations, and lasting connections among students from across institutions.
