Summer Experience Programs
SUNY Geneseo and the Department of Residence Life are proud to offer Summer Experience programs for students to connect with each other and the local area.
Specific program availability may vary by year.
Summer 2023
- Sustainability of the Genesee Valley, based in Geneseo, NY
- The Letchworth Experience, based in Letchworth Park
Learning Outcomes
- Apply discipline-specific knowledge and skills to place-based learning experiences
- Form connections between Participation in a Global Society dimensions (Diversity, Pluralism, and Power; World Cultures and Values; Contemporary Global Challenges; Creativity and Innovation; Sustainability) and local contexts
- Engage in critical analysis and argumentation in oral discourse and written work
- Build positive relationships with students, faculty, staff, and the community
- Reflect upon academic experiences, assess changes in learning and outlook over time, and to make personal, professional, and civic plans based on that self-reflection
The XLRN 101 courses have 3-4 day summer components and are fall semester courses. So there is a small amount of coursework expected in the fall.
