*A Summer Program Like No Other! *

Like No Other!
[image: Mike Traugott]When COVID-19 hit in March and we realized we would
have to go online, no one understood at the time what exactly would be
involved. It turned out that we needed to develop plans for 84 offerings,
comprised of 12 lectures, 40 short workshops, and 32 four-week courses. It
is always difficult to count the number of participants because so many
sign up for multiple offerings. We know we had 841 individuals
participating in the four-week sessions and 649 participating in the short
workshops. While there is some overlap in those numbers, we are confident
we had more than 1,000 individuals who participated in the program, a new
enrollment record.

The staff did an amazing job in organizing the structure for conducting the
program, but of course, we couldn’t hold a program without the excellent
work of the instructional staff and the TAs. Many of them were teaching
online for the first time, but this will hold them in good stead for their
teaching this fall at their home institutions. Early returns from the
course evaluations indicate the participants’ satisfaction with their
efforts was very high.

We have started planning for next year, and the easy part was selecting the
dates for the main 2021 program. The first session will be held from June
21-July 16, and the second session from July 19-August 13. It will take a
careful review of this summer’s experience with an eye on how the country
deals with the coronavirus before we decide on the mode of instruction, but
we hope to be able to have in-person instruction in Ann Arbor with an
option of remote access.

Mike Traugott, Director, ICPSR Summer Program

*Editor's note: The ICPSR Summer Program has now decided that its 2021 mode
of instruction will be online. This decision was made with consideration of
the current public health information about the COVID-19 pandemic.*
