By taking a course during the summer, high school students can get a jump on their college careers or take advantage of the smaller classes and individualized attention the program offers, says Tom O'Bryan, associate dean of the College of Letters and Science. Another attractive aspect of these classes is that high school students will be among their peers. Choices include five courses on media literacy, creative writing techniques, oceans, leadership, and the psychology of abnormal behavior. Students must be high school juniors or seniors as of August 2000, and rank in the top 25 percent of their class. Also, a high school advisor must approve the application.
Eligible students can enroll anytime before classes start, but enrollment is limited.
