What the Summer Institute is all about:

Open to any incoming 9th Grader through exiting high school senior, the Summer Institute is a five day program designed for students who are interested in politics, history, or international relations. Providing its participants with the opportunity to hear  human rights experts, historians, and advocates, the goal of the program is to inspire its students to have a positive impact on their communities, nation, and world. Featuring hands-on activities, discussions, and field trips, participants will get the inspiration, know-how, and network that will propel them to doing great things both now and in the future.
