Teen seminars are patterned after the adult seminars, in that they are text-based, Socratic explorations of critical leadership challenges of the day. Noteworthy differences are that Teen participants are high school age youth and that the youth are not included in the adult social activities, and the preparatory readings are shorter.
Through the generous support of Anne and John Doerr, scholarships are awarded to ensure that diverse perspectives are represented at the Teen seminar tables.
The 2010 Teen Socrates Seminar was moderated by Kai Ryssdal, host of Marketplace, from American Public Media. The Teen Socrates schedule is available here.
