What is this Shaw Leadership Program that everyone is talking about?
Deat iminhighschool : Not sure that the Shaw Leadership Program is very high profile on campus as opposed to the Honors Program itself (or the individual major honors programs), Presidential Scholars Program, or several other volunteer organizations. That said the following profile is taken from the Boston College web site. I strongly advise you to speak with admissions before considering this option.
From the Boston College Web Site : The Shaw Leadership Program is a unique four-year living–learning program run through the Office of Residential Life. Each summer, 20 highly motivated incoming First Year students are selected from a competitive applicant pool to become the “Shaw Class” for that graduating class. During the first year in the program, students reside in the Shaw House, attend weekly leadership workshops, participate in community service opportunities, and apply the skills they learn to create and complete a leadership project.
