The University of Toledo will host a motivational speaker Wednesday for area high school students.

John Henry Livingston of JoHen3LB and Lifeplan Toledo will lead a kick-off event at 10:30 a.m. in the Memorial Field House east lobby for the Leadership with Swagger initiative.

The initiative includes a motivational program to give students confidence and helps them “define their own swagger.” Students will work as groups to create a marketing plan for the University. The marketing plan will be presented in April.
