new Winter 2021 Issue available
All Culver Summer Schools & Camps alumni are well-acquainted with the command to "pass in review." That's why it only seemed natural that our newest publication, a newsletter for all Culver Summer alumni, bear that well-known phrase.

The Culver Legion Presents Culver Connections Symposium
Since 1993, The Culver Legion has hosted a major spring event that has brought the talents of hundreds of alumni and parents to Academies students, primarily at the 12th-grade level. Originally called Ethical Decision Making in the Workplace and Society, the program allowed visiting program participants the opportunity to share “real-world” problems in the context of their work and against the backdrop of a traditional career exploration setting.
In recent years, the Legion Board of Directors has re-branded the program as Culver Connections Weekend and incorporated broader offerings, including a job interview practicum. With COVID-related restrictions still in place that preclude us from offering an in-person program in 2021, we present Culver Connections: A Symposia Series. Program panelists will be Legion members from around the globe, with many of the sessions moderated by faculty and staff members. Program topics will be offered virtually over multiple weeks to all members of the student body and, for the first time, allow us to invite interested alumni to participate in the programming.
