Our scholars came from all over the country and were from all walks of life. Each person was able to bring a unique perspective to this year’s events and I believe that this was an invaluable experience for all those involved. The importance of team work was one of the most important lessons in this year’s ASDP. Scholars were shown this through various team building exercises, lectures and a group case study. Although this lesson is not a new concept, it is nevertheless true and frequently undervalued. As a counselor, I too learned lessons about group work. By facilitating group projects and coordinating with administrative staff, sponsors, teachers, fellow counselors, and scholars I was able to gain many new insights about an old concept."

Prior to his pursuit of a bachelors and masters in Accountancy at the University of Denver, Ben obtained a bachelor of arts from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. He worked in management for a few years and found that his love for business was hindered by his lack of education in accounting. "Working with the ASDP was enjoyable and rewarding. Seeing students from around the country work together on the many challenges they faced during the week here at DU was remarkable. The growth from each individual at the program was seen by their presentations at the end of the week. The program has opened the door of opportunity to many of these individuals and I look forward to hearing their success stories in the future. "As a counselor I learned a lot about myself as well, my leadership style, what worked and did not work with the team, and how to accommodate to all the students equally throughout the week. My involvement with the program was great from the beginning. I was able to meet the students at the airport and ride with them on the bus to the University. I enjoyed talking with many of the students at the airport while we waited for the late arrivals and the charter bus to pick us up. Each day brought a new challenge to the group and I enjoyed being a part of the whole experience.” Ruslan Garrey Ruslan lived in Russia before moving to the United States.

"I applied to this program because I know that I will gain extraordinary accounting, social and professional experience. When I first met the scholars, I was really impressed in what they have to offer. They were very competitive, but in a good way. They were fully engaged in every activity and showed sportsmanship. They worked hard especially for the case. They even stayed up very late to finalize their presentation. I’ve met amazing people, who will surely succeed in the future. By watching the scholars, I learned various ways to work as a group. I also had many networking and learning opportunities. The insights enabled me to get to know myself and others better. Overall, I learned a lot and had fun at the same time at the ASDP.” Shing-Jiuan Liau-Root Shing-Jiuan Liau-Root came to America from Taiwan in 1998, to study Somatic Psychology and earned a Master’s in Dance Movement Therapy from Naropa University.
