Writing and Thinking Workshop

The words write and think go hand in hand with summer and fun at Lake Forest College. You’ll get to experience both during our two-week residential program for high school students who want to explore writing without worrying about grades.

Supportive faculty work with students in small groups to help them develop confidence in their voices as writers. Participants learn strategies to generate fresh and compelling ideas, the kind of well-reasoned ideas first-rate colleges and universities expect from their students. Trips to Chicago’s museums and cultural events offer additional inspiration.

You’ll grow in ways that you can now only imagine.
