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.
