Every year, Posse Scholars host PossePlus, a weekend retreat held on their respective campuses to encourage conversations amongst the student body and faculty. The tradition was first proposed by Posse Scholars at Vanderbilt University to include a wider segment of the student population in important dialogue. Every retreat focuses on a topic selected by Posse Scholars.
In 2019, the PossePlus retreat centered on political issues affecting the country. A survey capturing participant opinions found that more than 95 percent of students were dissatisfied with the current state of affairs in US politics. More than 5,000 participants also shared their views on healthcare, the economy, higher education costs, and immigration.
