Summer Programs

<p>Hi, I'm looking for short two-week at the most summer programs. If I could get any help, that would be great.</p>

<p>I basically have June free (nothing to do but read, seriously) so I thought it might be fun to do one of those summer programs.</p>

<p>Suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!</p>

<ul>
<li>two-week at the most (I'm the LTG-elect for my Key Club and I can't be gone for more than that)</li>
<li>preferably in June</li>
<li>in the US, California (in-state) if possible</li>
<li>hopefully not too expensive w/ scholarship options maybe</li>
<li>having to do with languages/politics/leadership/volunteer work/etc.</li>
<li>"learn something" -- I mean, I'm not going for INTEL, but I want to DO something</li>
</ul>

<p>Thanks again!</p>

<p>Hm.... It's the time limit that's hard, otherwise I'd say Governor's School (if your state has one? I'm not sure about how these things work exactly.). </p>

<p>Ask your school counselor. She may have a list of what local colleges and high schools offer in terms of forums and that type of thing. Otherwise, enjoy your free time!</p>

<p>The stanford debate camp sounds fitting... though I don't know the exact name.</p>

<p>glassesarechic - Gah, I know. I really wish I could spend more time on a program. Thanks for the suggestions! I'll definitely meet up with my GC soon.</p>

<p>classof09 - Thanks for the suggestion!</p>

<p>Summer@Brown mini courses.. not in California, but they're great.</p>

<p>Have you considered taking community college or online classes?</p>

<p>Thanks for the suggestion Jonathan!</p>

<p>Community college is something I'm already doing, but during the summer, you can only get in with a lottery. (It'd be very hard for me to win it, since I think less than 5% of my class or school <em>forgot which</em> can get in. It's all by chance.)</p>
