Design: Think. Know. Do. (SHI)

High School Students! Here is your opportunity to take a one-week intensive design camp at Ohio Northern University. The camp is being offered through the Summer Honors Institute program for gifted high school students who are entering their sophomore or junior years in the 2009–2010 academic year.

Design Camp will embark on an exciting journey to explore the fundamentals of visual communication. Working in teams, students will redesign a brand identity, including the logo, for a local non-profit organization through a combination of activities.

To be eligible to attend Ohio Northern University’s Summer Honors Institute and the Design Camp, a student must:
• Reside in Ohio;
• Be entering the 10th or 11th grade during the 2009-2010 school year;
• Be identified as gifted by an Ohio school district or be able to document that he or she meets Ohio gifted identification criteria described in Ohio Administrative Code 3301-51-15.

The Ohio Summer Honors Institutes are academic summer programs funded by the Ohio Department of Education. Through an ODE grant, Ohio Northern is able to offer many other camps, including the Design Camp.

The cost of ONU’s residential camp is $300 per week. A few scholarships are available for financial assistance to cover the camp fee. Space in the Summer Honors Institute is limited.
