Anyone attended this Harvard one before? How’s the experience?
Think it’s nothing related to Harvard but just a summer program. Stanford has a similar one too.
Any other good suggestions for Debate/Speech (online programs) for incoming 9th grader?
I haven’t participated debate competition before. I had mock trial summer camp before and really liked it. Think I want to mainly improve my public speech skills; make new friends; have fun debate on certain topics that I am interested in (public policy etc.); not necessarily looking to be on the track of debate competition. What would you suggest?
Dartmouth (D went there during high school and taught there before her first year at Dartmouth), Northwestern, and UC Berkeley all have excellent summer programs for high school students. May be a bit advanced for an incoming 9th grader, and I think they’re aimed more at kids on the national circuit.
