Winter Retreats
Reuniting with the active cohort family each January, the Winter Retreat serves to deepen bonds, and continue learning.
Breakout group discussions are a common sight at the Winter Retreats
With field-trips, activities and workshops (many led by scholars!) the Winter Retreat provides an opportunity to:
a) assess the content thus far considered
b) create space to co-develop programming to fill any gaps identified and
c) further explore any topics desired.
“Student led workshops and initiatives were informative and inspiring. It was really nice knowing what my peers are working on or topics that they are very passionate about! “
The Winter Retreat is also the venue that allows scholars to showcase their videos about their internship experiences for the first time! Click below to see a sampling of the videos developed.
