SEAD programs take place on the Dartmouth College
campus. Dartmouth College is a private, four-year liberal arts
college, nestled in the foothills along the Connecticut River in
Hanover, New Hampshire, a town of 10,000 residents. With an
undergraduate population of 4,000 men and women, Dartmouth enrolls
students from a number of foreign countries and is constantly working
to maximize the diversity of its population. The college runs a fourth
term during the summer and all sophomores must attend this term along
with other students who choose to do so. This provides a vibrant
college community for SEAD students to experience and a wealth of
college volunteers who are an integral part of the program.
Lodging and Meals
SEAD participants are housed in one of the dormitories on
campus. The dorm is supervised by college students, resident advisors,
who also work as SEAD student teachers and tutors. Meals are served in
the college dining facilities as well as being sponsored by many of
the campus organizations including fraternity or sorority
houses. Every attempt is made to meet dietary needs and to provide a
variety of nutritional options.
For Dartmouth organizations interested in sponsoring or providing a meal, please email Sead@dartmouth.edu
Connections to the Dartmouth
Community
A central component of SEAD is the involvement of a large number of
Dartmouth undergraduates during their sophomore year: a service
opportunity for many. Dartmouth students have the chance to contribute
some of what they are learning back to the community, and also gain a
new understanding of the exciting challenges in public education
today. Lean more about volunteer
opportunities
Connections to Hanover High School Community
In the fall or winter following their summer at Dartmouth, SEAD
students come back to Hanover for the SEAD Fall or Winter Reunion
Weekend. The Fall and Winter Weekends give SEAD students the
opportunity to reconnect with their mentors and one another and serve
as a reminder of the focused, motivated work the students did during
the summer and can do during the school year. The Fall and Winter
Weekends also help prepare the students for their upcoming summer with
SEAD.
The SEAD Fall and Winter Weekends are coordinated by Hanover High
School SEAD interns. SEAD students are hosted by Hanover High School
host families during the weekend. If you are interested in being a
host family, please
email Sead@dartmouth.edu.
