Our college mentors are a part of what makes CALS unique!

8 Holy Cross College students are selected each year to walk alongside high school participants for every activity from the morning to the evening.

All college mentors are trained to guide high school students throughout the weeklong activities, be role models both in the classrooms and off-campus field trips, facilitate small group discussions, and foster fellowship among the high school students.

All high school student participants of CALS this summer will have the opportunity to compete in our newly refined Community Impact Project Competition and compete for prizes!

In its prototype form that was inaugurated last year, the project included four days of guided reflection around each student’s strengths and interests, and how these might serve an identified need within the student’s hometown.

Our goal moving forward is to use this project as an opportunity to heighten collaboration and move from theoretical explorations of leadership to increased potential for concrete action.

The newly refined Community Impact Project will consist of placing high school students in small teams of 4 based on region or hometown. (This is a significant change as the original version of the project launched last summer focused on individual work.)

At the beginning of the week, we will review examples of student impact projects – community gardens, murals, service partnering with local organizations and businesses – as well as highlighting potential ideas modeled by community partners during afternoon excursions.

Next, each team will be tasked with brainstorming a community need and developing a micro-project responding to that need.

College mentors and faculty will facilitate sessions Sunday-Thursday guiding students through the brainstorming stages to a project proposal, culminating in a pitch session on Friday in which community leaders – drawn from excursions throughout the week – will hear each project pitch and select a project whose group members will each receive a gift card as an award.

We believe embedding community action more concretely within the Summit serves to empower students, bring leadership to life in an embedded yet attainable manner, and celebrate South Bend and Indiana!
