Program Commitments

• Attend one week-long session every year for three consecutive years
  
  (Once enrolled, participants become part of a "class" of students that remains intact during the three-year experience. Each class meets with faculty members separately, takes meals together and participates in free-time activities together. This enables participants to build strong relationships with their classmates and broaden their professional networks.)
  
• Complete the faculty-assigned readings that will be mailed in the weeks prior to Institute.
  
  Past Institute participants agree that reading the materials before Institute allows them to participate more fully in the small-class discussions
  
  (Please click here to see a list of readings assigned by the 2011 faculty.)

If you would like to receive more information about the Institute, please contact Sheree Anne Kelly to be placed on the mailing list for our 2012 brochure. The brochure will be mailed out in late summer/early fall.
