Why pursue truth? Why discipline the mind?

Why, if not because the quest for the true, the good, and the beautiful is the last great crusade open to honest seekers? Why, if not because the study of our past gives us a fresh look on the present? Why, if not because the reward is beyond compare? Why, if not because Truth is the greatest liberating gift that the Catholic Church keeps aflame for all mankind?

At the 2010 Collegiate Summer Program for High School Students, you will join other students at the oldest collegiate summer program in the country, discovering the inspiring well-springs of truth and the ever fresh source of Western civilization.

During this program, you will surround yourself with a community of learners all dedicated to renewing that spirit of learning and living developed in the schools of Greece and Rome, and in the universities of the Middle Ages. Here you will build friendship meant to last as you study, play sports, hike, and pray together. Moreover, you will experience the healthy balance of prayer, work, and play—essential to the undergraduate life of Thomas More College.  See Course Descriptions.

The Order of the Day

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is the center of each day. It stengthens the soul as the body is challenged to climb new heights in both the lecture hall and on the mountain slopes of New Hampshire.

Evening discussions, festive events, and music add to the classroom experience. During the Collegiate Summer Program you will explore the natural and cultural riches of New England, visit Boston and walk the historic Freedom Trail where Red Coat and Patriot clashed, climb Mount Monadnock to see the place where the wild wolves of New England made their last stand, and swim off the Maine Coast where pirates, privateers, and whaling ships built the fortune of our young country.

New England, the birth place of our nation, the home of America’s greatest authors, the land of White Mountains and green seas, is ready for your exploration.

Thomas More College’s summer program is sure to be one of the most invigorating events in your life. The pursuit of knowledge under the light of Catholic Wisdom, in good company, with regular adventures that build character as they test your sinew and fill your imagination—that is what we offer. Is this not how you want to spend a few weeks of the summer?
