The purpose of this survey was to explore status of Chinese college student leadership and influences of their leadership learning. The findings indicated that Chinese college students valued honesty and integrity, but were lack of self-confidence, self-reflection and self-awareness. They had responsible attitude and intention, but were lack of civic responsibility in action.
