An annual campus-wide event, LEAP (which stands for Learning through Application) brings together faculty, students, staff, family, friends, and alums to hear students present their summer research and internship experiences from around the corner and around the world. A central element of the College's curriculum to career experience, the LEAP Symposium is a powerful vehicle that demonstrates the strong connections between academic work at º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù and its practical application in the world.

From labs and law offices, embassies and businesses, archives, television studios, farms and rural communities, students return from their summer experiences and reflect critically about what they have learned. At LEAP, this is translated into panel presentations for a student audience who see a model of what they can aspire to accomplish themselves. It fosters the exchange of ideas on cutting-edge projects and demonstrates the variety of ways that students are embedding their summer experiences into their curricular and career pathways.
