If summer could talk, what would she say? Maybe she would beckon with her sun-kissed, outstretched finger and a sultry, yet knowing, look, “Come on. You need some adventure. When was the last time you let down your guard and tried something new, something you were really passionate about?”

That sassy spirit took hold at CC this summer, with the launch of several new, or newly imagined, programs to encourage experimentation, development of new skills, social engagement, and adventure. The academic year is the center of CC’s mission, but a big part of our strategic plan is to create new opportunities for students in the summer. In this story, we highlight some of the opportunities CC offered during this past summer (and for alumni, next summer).
