Welcome to intensive learning that expands through and beyond the Rocky Mountain West. Welcome to the Block Plan, where you'll take one class at a time for 3 weeks. Prepare to dive into your current passion in small discussion-based classes, where professors will know your name, encourage you to grow, and respect your stride. Welcome to block breaks: four days to relax, to climb one of Colorado's 54 peaks higher than 14,000 feet or explore the dynamic sand dunes, forests, and canyons of the Southwest.
