More Summer Opportunities

If you are looking for something interesting (and even a little outside-the-box) this summer, consider one of the follow summer programs.

• The Sewanee Environmental Institute (SEI) - If you are passionate about the outdoors and interested in advancing your knowledge/skills in the study of the environment, consider this program for rising juniors and seniors.
• The New England Center for Investigative Reporting, based at Boston University's School of Communication, is once again offering an Investigative Journalism Workshop. 
• Another unique opportunity is the Grab the Torch Summer Institute.   Students have the opportunity to interact with philanthropic leaders, gain an understanding of their personal values, challenge their leadership skills through outdoor adventure and build lasting friendships.  If you might be interested, please let me know so that we can nominate you for this program.
• Closer to home, check out the Tennessee Aquarium's CLAW Camp (Conservation Leadership in Action Week) or the Summer Camp Volunteer program (applications should be available on the aquarium website this month).  There is also a year long youth volunteer program at the Aquarium (nine hours - two 4.5 hour shifts per month).
