The SUPER Emerging Scholars (SES) program is an expansion of AHF's mission to serve the public. This program directly fosters opportunities for high-school students to examine the significance of their own cultural values and meanings through in-depth studies of literature, history and the arts. By equipping participants, called Emerging Scholars, with necessary critical thinking and writing skills in the humanities, they will be inspired to explore human values and meanings through academic scholarship.

SES institutes are weeklong residential workshops that offer specialized academic enrichment in the humanities. The institutes will assist upper-level high-school students in the development of writing and critical thinking skills necessary for success in secondary and post-secondary education.

We are now accepting applications for 2012 summer institutes. If you need more information, please contact Dionne Clark at: dclark@ahf.net or (205) 558-3999.
