Next Step: Participant Comments

Participants 

The Next Step Retreat is made up of roughly 65 participants and a team of 16 facilitators who work in teams of two to lead small groups of 8-10 participants through the retreat experience.  Participants are generally undergraduate or graduate students and sometimes even staff and faculty.  Selected each November, participants are expected to participate in prep meetings leading up to the retreat.

This page acts as a communication tool between the Advisory Committee, logistics team and participants.  More information will be posted throughout the fall.
