Spud's Thoughts:
I'm biased here because this is the program that significantly catalyzed my involvement into the changemaking community. There's a lot I could talk about that highlights why this program is such an amazing opportunity - but one of the big things that I take away from this program is the way it was able to flip traditional higher education on it's head. We spent a significant amount of time in circle together, in a round classroom alongside the Baltic Sea, diving into the collective wisdom that we all brought into the program. Yes, there were traditional lectures occasionally, but more importantly, there were countless opportunities where we are able to each step up and lead the group. This program will challenge you, expand your connections, and introduce you to new opportunities to harness your skills toward.
