[quote=Anonymous]My kid just got back from a 2 week program. It was actually run by the college, not one of the franchise programs. Though everyone we met was really nice, and the teacher seemed great when we met them at the end, the programming was really lackluster.

Everything was held on a sequestered part of the campus (fine) and despite being told students would be taken off campus and to the main/better part of campus several times, they didn't leave once. They also didn't take any field trips or do any social excursions, and the "dance" that was planned was cancelled due to rain. So while they had sports equipment set up and movies and dorm common rooms, there were zero off (second-rate) campus opportunities, when many were promised.

We have a deep affinity for the school, and the activity our kid signed up for was good and the kids he met were nice, but we were pretty disappointed at the programming aspect. Will definitely give "constructive" feedback.

I wonder if these camps are short staffed this summer to such a degree that can't do these things?[/quote]
