BASECAMP
Basecamp is a hands-on, life skills intensive focused on time, task, and relationship management in the context of resiliency. Held at the end of January, this event orients students for the spring semester as they move into the execution phase of their Ascend projects. In addition to several keynote speaker sessions, students attend a project orientation where they will work independently or in teams to flesh out their project, pitch their ideas, and receive feedback from their team leaders, Unbound staff, and fellow students.
