X-term is a yearlong experiential learning program about real-world, 21st-century scenarios. It pushes us to expand problem-solving skills through personal responsibility, empathy, resourcefulness, collaboration and intellectual creativity. The faculty design inspiring courses that are really cool. Seniors can propose their own independent projects and internships. You can even take trips to all corners of the globe. Here are a few of my favorite choices. Roller Coaster Physics
