Moore School of Business - Wachovia Scholars, Business at Moore Summer Camp

WSBAM07_02 This coming summer, June 20-26, 2009, Wachovia Bank and the University of South Carolina Moore School of Business will invite 30 high-achieving high school juniors from under-represented groups to participate in the third annual Wachovia Scholars Business at Moore summer program. This program brings students to campus for one week, enabling them to discover the many opportunities available in business. It also gives the students a chance to meet other high school students from throughout the state, as well as current Moore School of Business students and faculty.

Thanks to our sponsor, Wachovia Bank, this program is available at no cost to the student. Through the program's classes and activities, the student will have the opportunity to:

learn the essentials of how a business operates
learn how executives make business decisions
find out what types of jobs are available in business
talk with former USC students and business executives
interact with employees of Wachovia Bank

In addition to attending business classes and working on a group project, the students experience dorm life and some of the entertainment venues near campus. During previous summer programs, students got a taste of the local restaurants including Lizard's Thicket and Shane's Rib Shack and let off steam at the AMF Park Lanes bowling alley and Frankie's Fun Park.

Students who attend the Wachovia Scholars Business at Moore summer program and enroll in the Moore School of Business, University of South Carolina, are eligible for a renewable four-year Wachovia Scholars Scholarship.
