This year the club was able to send two students to the World Affairs Seminar held on the campus of Carroll University in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Lucy Jing Kendall (Mountain Vista HS) and Grace Krichgessner (Highlands Ranch HS) were chosen to attend. They gave a report on the week to the club on July 31.
The World Affairs Seminar (WAS) is a unique interactive educational program for high school students. The week-long experience provides an opportunity for students from a variety of backgrounds to discuss issues in a non-threatening environment. They experience new and different ideas and viewpoints brought forward both by their colleagues and by world renowned experts. In small and large groups students discuss information and ideas and put their new knowledge to use. Through public policy simulations they work through the complex interactions of different countries, corporations and organizations to develop their own policy initiative. The university setting provides a college-like experience, including use of the residence halls and campus dining. Throughout the week students have time for recreational activities which bring greater awareness and understanding of the world around them. Critical thinking, negotiation skills and the process of learning about new friends from around the world are all part of this incredible experience.
