Summer programs less than 6 weeks :)

<p>Hello! I will be a rising senior this summer, and in my future I plan on going to law school. Most forums have math/science programs like RSI, and I would MUCH rather go to any social science, law, leadership, etc program (not business or journalist/writing type ones though). I also need them to be free, or at least less than $1000. </p>

<p>-I prefer to do a few one to two week programs every summer, but I'm willing to stay up to a month.
-I'm open to internships too</p>

<p>If you have ANY suggestions, please let me know.</p>

<p>Hi funsizedjas, I did a separate post about a program in DC called the St. Albans School of Public Service that might be something you’d want to look at. </p>

<p>I am sort of thinking I might like to go to law school too some day and this program was pretty cool because, although it had a wider government/public policy/leadership angle, we also did some law-related things like do a mock Supreme Court argument of a current case (we did a case about whether a state could ban violent video games) and have a one-on-one session with a US Supreme Court judge! We also used the “case study method” in classroom discussions which is what they do in law school. It’s a four week program and it wasn’t free but it seemed like they offered a lot of financial aid (kids in my program were on full and partial scholarships).</p>

<p>Here’s a post from the program’s blog about our Supreme Court mock case: [School</a> of Public Service Blog: SPS 2011: The “SPS Supreme Court” is In Session!](<a href=“http://schoolofpublicservice.blogspot.com/2011/06/sps-2011-sps-supreme-court-is-in.html]School”>School of Public Service Blog: SPS 2011: The "SPS Supreme Court" is In Session!)</p>

<p>This organization does a free one-week program. I’ve never done it, but it looks cool</p>
