Is going to Boy/Girl State/Nation a good thing?

<p>In Bill Clinton’s Book, My Life, he shows a picture of himself at National Boys State (two delegates from each state are selected for National Boys State). In the picture, he is standing near JFK, waiting to shake his hand. </p>

<p>My son attended Boys State here in New Jersey and it was an incredible experience for him. As he is majoring in Political Science, I believe it was a huge boost for him. He was elected State Assembly Speaker and he loved serving. Plus it was free!</p>

<p>He was accepted ED at UVa.</p>
