Humanities-Oriented Summer Programs

<p>Post if you know them, so far all I've heard about is TASP and TASS</p>

<p>Yeah TASP...other than that...Intern with some local politicians in your state? I'm in the same dilemma, so I'm applying to TASP and also to a epidemiology research internship at Harvard. I'm going to make it look like "public policy" on my college app.</p>

<p>I'm looking as well. There are numerous universities that offer classes in the humanities, but there really aren't that many that focus completely on the humanities. There's a lot more math and science stuff out there.</p>

<p>PSYL (Pearson Seminar on Youth Leadership)
It happens every August for 3 weeks. I attended in 2004, and it was the best summer of my life. :)</p>

"The Pearson Seminar on Youth Leadership is designed to strengthen the role that young people play as future community and world leaders. PSYL provides a unique learning environment in which students from North America and from other nations around the world meet for a three-week seminar. PSYL’s framework includes discussions, presentations, guest speakers, workshops and interactive approaches to leadership training. Students are encouraged to broaden their perspectives on key world issues and are provided with the leadership skills they need to become leaders on themes of ecological sustainability, social justice and international understanding.

<p>On the website you can find the schedule from 2004 to see what we did. Basically every day you have sessions on various issues as well as some free time to learn about and bond with people from all over the world. The campus is gorgeous as well... :)</p>
