Really I guess it can be for any of the Drama programs, I'm just particularly motivated to make sure we get a good class in DP.
You could send them links to these videos Don made:

and you could definitely send them the link to the precollege admissions site:

Applications are accepted through June 1, but the more people that sign up earlier, the more of a program I can build. We typically committed to a program that includes:
- Drafting
- Basic Design
- Lighting
- Technical Production
- Stagecraft
- Costumes
- Scenic Art
- Production Management
- Stage Management
- Lighting Technology
- Sound Design
- Storyology
- Horror film Sound Design
- Tye Dying
- Moving Light Programming
- Dinosaur Sculpture
- Resume Writing & Interviewing
It's also worth mentioning to people that to the best of my knowledge this is the only summer program that features a purpose built Design & Technical program with fully conceived courses and run by many of our regular year staff and faculty. It's just something that cannot be found at other schools. And as a footnote you could toss in that pretty nearly every year we admit students into our regular year Design & PTM program at the conclusion of their time with us in the summer - so they get to go back for their senior year already having been admitted to college.
You can also tell them that if they have questions they can contact me at dboevers@cmu.edu
actually I guess you don't have to write anything, you can just forward this email, thanks!

I do not have anyone to send this along to. I am, however, interested in what positions may be available to students as Teaching Assistants for the various courses taught over the summer, or in other ways students could assist.
I sent this to all the folks of at my highschool, one of which may be interested in coming here for actual school. Hopefully they'll come here.
I really enjoyed the precollege experience and, of course, I give most credit to my being here for school now to those 6 weeks. So much fun, and I think it's a very good way of testing the waters of such an intense conservatory program anywhere. Pre-college was a blast!
