The Summer Enrichment at Dartmouth (SEAD) program is a multi-year college enrichment program that empowers promising high school students from under-resourced backgrounds to thrive in high school and college, and provides undergraduates with transformative opportunities for service and leadership.

For its high school scholars, SEAD offers summer programs, interns during the academic year, and reunion weekends at Dartmouth. We are currently seeking to fill SEAD internship positions for the Spring 2014 term. The SEAD Internship gives you the opportunity to support SEAD students in their high schools. SEAD interns work both with SEAD students and other students at SEAD partner schools to promote educational success and college access.

Join members of Hatian music band Rara M de NY in a conversation about the linkage between their music and social justice. Rara M de NY plays a modernized version of the traditional genre of Haitian music called Rara. The parent band, Rara M, was originally from Bel Air, Port-au-Prince. Several members of Rara M were in Miami for a performance when the earthquake struck in January 2010. They were granted Temporary Protective Status following the earthquake and have remained in the States since, settling in Brooklyn, NY. An extremely talented group of artists, Rara M de NY reflects the profound demographic shifts caused by the earthquake and also attests to the power of music to revitalize and articulate a Haitian transnational community. Please take a look at the 2013 video to get a feel for this group's vibrant and socially engaged repertoire: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-t64h9BqOQ

A truly wonderful experience that brings together students from a variety of religious and moral traditions to explore the issues of youth and homelessness.   You'll be working with various community agencies to learn more about these issues and to provide much needed service AND developing meaningful relationships that will help you develop your sense of what it means to serve the community in the context of a life of faith.  Students from all religious and moral traditions are encouraged to apply!

Go to www.dartmouth.edu/~tucker/service/trips/asb.html for the application (DUE Monday, Oct 7, 11:59PM!) and contact either of the 2014 Trip Leaders- Kassaundra Amann '16 or Madeleine Parker '14 - for more information.
