Our 107th Session Begins

We welcomed students to campus as our 107th session began this past Wednesday.  Our students come from all corners of the United States and represent 23 countries from all over the globe.

It’s a week of firsts as students attended their first All-School meeting, first Wolfeboro meals, first classes, first intramurals, and their first evening study hall yesterday.  Thursday afternoon was filled with making new friends and orientation activities.  Students will enjoy their first weekend activities and trips over the next couple of days.

Here’s a short photo essay full of firsts.  You can see galleries of opening day and follow our summer in pictures at Wolfeboro2016, our Shutterfly gallery.

Dr. Christopher Thurber Talks “Mind Bending Conversations” with Wolfeboro Residential Faculty

Always working to improve our craft and interaction with our students, Dr. Christopher Thurber visited campus Thursday to lead Residential Faculty through his “Mind-Bending Conversations” workshop.

We practiced learning to listen more effectively and helping to lead our students to “insight through empathy.”

Below you can see Dr. Thurber (first) and a few pictures of our residential faculty practicing during the workshop.

Please enjoy Inside Wolfeboro as your window into our session activities.

I’m Brian Fisher, the Communications Director at Wolfeboro.  I’ll work to be your eyes and ears into campus events and the lives and activities of our students through photographs, observations and the occasional interview.

I hope to give you a feel for the activity and growth that occurs in all of us every summer. Our students work hard, have a great time, and are guided by some of the best educators anywhere.

You’ll find a more complete introduction, including my Wolfeboro Experience, in the About section.
