General Camp Info
Satori
Summer Camp is the brainchild of Dr. Bruce Mitchell and Mike Cantlon
and grew out of their mutual concern over the lack of opportunities
for gifted youth to socialize in a non-competitive atmosphere. Founded
in 1984, Satori is now entering its 25nd year.
The
camp is based on a philosophy of non-competition; unlike many other
enrichment programs for gifted youth, campers are not graded for
their participation, nor do they recieve advanced placement credit.
What they DO get is an opportunity to interact with intellectual
peers and engage in all sorts of stimulating activities.
During camp, participants choose three classes from
amongst the course offerings, taking these each day during their
week at camp. The camp's course offerings feature a wide variety
of classes that introduce campers to areas of inquiry that they
may not have been previously exposed to including multimedia design,
journalism, brain science, sculpture, archeology, acting, literary
criticism, and many more. Campers live on Eastern Washington University's
campus for the duration of camp and get to enjoy the various amenities
available on a typical university campus, including the academic
facilities and recreational facilities.
