Student Comments:
Some selected quotes from the students of the Summer Institute, as taken from their surveys...
"Putting a face and voice to the crimes against humanity and to have them stand in front of you let alone in a small group, truly made me more interested in studying human rights and helping others. This has changed me as a person and makes me want to make a change in the world one step at a time."
"Halfway through the week I decided that I want to spend my life preventing genocide and helping victims. I want to spread awareness and make the world a better place for everyone."
"The Summer Institute was the last push I needed to know that I can’t just stand and watch anymore."
