WINTERIM  2021

Reimagined for 2021, Winterim holds true to its promise to develop wonder in learning, independence of thought, honor in action, and joy in the community. The premier program provides Harpeth Hall students the very best in experiential learning and creates the chance to see their academic studies take a tangible, dynamic form.
 
Freshmen and sophomores take part in project-oriented courses on campus offered by our exceptional faculty and professionals from around the country. This year, students will explore the field of genetic engineering, design prosthetics for use in medical applications, contemplate gender roles in history and literature, discuss racial diversity in Latin America, and study everything from Beyonce's Feminism to French Fashion Houses.
 
Our juniors and seniors will take part in professional internships, independent study, and three weeks of immersive experiences across Nashville featuring college-level inspired seminars and deep exploration of topics that will best develop our next generation of young leaders.
 
This hallmark Harpeth Hall program has been designed for an unforgettable experience in an unimaginable year.

I am interning in the Fan Experience/Marketing office at University of Tennessee, and I'm getting to see and help with "behind-the-scenes" of what goes into a D1 sporting event. I'm even getting to work basketball games!

For Winterim this year, I was lucky enough to secure an independent internship with King Pen Music, a publishing and artist development company in Nashville. I have had a blast so far, and I’ve already learned so much about the music business in my first week. My host has been gracious enough to show me her process and give me helpful information to further my knowledge about publishing, songwriting, and the music industry in general. As this is my first year being able to go off campus for Winterim, I expected it to be exciting and different, but it has exceeded that already in the best way possible. I am so grateful to have been given so much independence and freedom to explore my interests during Winterim, and I know I can speak for many in saying that Winterim is one of the very best parts of being at Harpeth Hall.
