This summer, the Winter Institute is hosting its third annual Summer Youth Institute June 10-24 at the University of Mississippi. SYI is for Mississippi high school students currently in their freshman and sophomore years. The program emphasizes relationship building, history, diversity, and civic engagement through fun activities, field trips, and workshops. At the end of the program, students go home with a plan for a project to improve their communities and plenty of new friends here at the Institute and across the state. Best of all, SYI is free to students who are accepted into the program.
You can learn more about the program and find the online application at our website, youth.winterinstitute.org. If you have any questions about the program, contact Patrick Weems at phweems@gmail.com.
