It’s our hope that students gain some understanding about navigating college while getting a glimpse into the careers they’re interested in pursuing and what Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College can offer them.”
解析:选C.A.M.P., each class gave presentations about their week to their fellow students, friends and family. The demonstrations from the classes included research findings about Yellowstone National Park from the EV-150 students, community projects on sustainability to take to the Galapagos Islands for the GL-150 class, equine care and horseshoeing from the EQ-150 group, the importance of health and wellness from the PE-150 class and CPR certification and simulated childbirth from the NU-150 students.

里根泰勒, a student in the NU-150 course, shared about her class participating in the RHIC simulation at Union Hospital. “Our simulation patient was in labor, so it was up to us to deliver the baby, which was cool to experience. It really helped me understand more about 护理 and I’m thankful for the opportunity,” she said.
Bob Jackson, pre-college outreach director for SMWC, was pleased with the week. “It was fantastic to see high school students from Indiana and Illinois excited to go to school in the summer! 我看到了笑脸, lots of laughing and lots of learning taking place inside and outside of classrooms. It was a packed week for them, being immersed in highly engaging activities in the areas of environmental sustainability, 马的研究, 护理, health and wellness and global leadership. 我相信C。.A.M.P. 在树林里 provides one-of-a-kind opportunities for high school students to not only see what college life can be but also allows for them to investigate career opportunities.”
