On December 14th students and teachers attended an informative seminar about the Stanford University High School Summer College presented by Charles Junkerman (Associate Provost and Dean). Noon (M5/340) attended the Stanford program during the past year and gave a talk about her experiences at Stanford. The program is unique in that it allows high school students to take university courses and receive college credits.
The website describes the program--"Summer at Stanford invites you to experience the thrill of campus life at one of the world's premier universities. Our unique programs balance challenging academics with educational and social activities to produce a well rounded summer of personal challenge and growth. Bicycling or running in the foothills, playing tennis or golf, enjoying the Stanford Summer Theater or Jazz Festival, attending the Science Lecture Series - all are pieces of the intricate puzzle that you build for yourself while you're here for the summer. The campus atmosphere is informal year-round."
