This July, we welcomed our fifth group of rising high school seniors to Dickinson’s campus to take part in the Knowledge for Freedom Seminar. Throughout the two-week program, students developed their understanding of American democracy and history, preparing them to tackle the challenges of both civic leadership and college courses. Below are a few pictures that capture the students’ experience this summer.<\/p>\n
