The SUPA program gives faculty the opportunity to design curricula that mirror what is happening on the Syracuse University campus and lets Fifth and Sixth Form students take actual college courses without having to leave Canterbury. Canterbury’s site coordinator at Syracuse University, Associate Professor and Undergraduate Program Director Dr. Gina Pauline, shared her positivity and appreciation for our program, saying,
“The opportunity to take a college- level course in high school is terrific, and the program at Canterbury did an incredible job in its first year. I was extremely impressed by the level of dedication of the students and instructors for the courses. Their final projects (both the paper and presentations) represented a high level of academic work! I am excited to continue to partner with Canterbury in the future.”
