ACADEMICS AND THE ARTS

FURMAN UNIVERSITY SUMMER SCHOLARS (high school) -- July 11-17, 2010 & July 18-24, 2010.

Furman's Summer Scholars programs include one- and two-week academic enrichment programs designed for rising high school juniors and seniors. Rising sophomores may be considered for certain programs. Students study in small group settings under the direction of Furman faculty members. Summer Scholars programs typically include a variety of learning experiences such as lectures, class discussions, debates, laboratory experiences, field trips, group and individual projects, and other activities intended to provide an enjoyable and challenging engaged learning experience.

MICROSCOPE, KALEIDOSCOPE, TELESCOPE (rising 1st through 8th graders) -- June and July, 2010.

The "Scopes" program is founded upon the belief that children will thrive in an environment in which they are challenged to think and question and can be playful and imaginative.

Pamela B. Shucker, director/naturalist; Meredith Burton, teacher/naturalist

This full-day summer academic enrichment program with a science and nature focus is designed for rising first or second graders.

Children participate daily in science, reading, art, music, outdoor sports and swimming. In addition to a structured schedule of "classroom" activities, there is also time for creek walks, quiet reflections and fun-and-tumble supervised games. Sessions are one or two weeks in length.
