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

logistics team and participants. More information will be
posted
throughout the fall.
