<p>Can someone explain this program? How selective is it and about how many people are in a project? Is it truly a good experience or is it just another time waster?</p>
<p>bump…</p>
<p>Anyone?..</p>
<p>It’s not selective at all; I’m not sure exactly how many people work on each project but I’d estimate it’s like 10 or so, depending on what it is.</p>
<p>I’ve never really gotten the impression that Connected Learning or any of the living-learning communities are that enriching at all, to be honest. I had some friends who were in a Connected Learning program focused on Indian dance, but it was just a dance team. I’ve never even heard about any of the other projects. I had some friends in a foreign language community last year and they seriously never did ANYTHING. Same with some friends who lived on the sustainability hall in Morrison…</p>
<p>I think the only people who actually take their communities seriously are the substance-free people. haha</p>
<p>Well, Im in the program for the fall and yeah there’s like eight people on each project. Pretty much you’re assigned to a project that you work on all year and theres periodic meetings. My group is seeking to get a charter school going. There’s a website up so you can see an agenda for the year: sites.google.com/site/educationalentrepreneurship</p>
<p>^^wow. that’s ambitious.</p>
