Comments from GHAers:

If someone were trying to decide to attend GHA what would you tell them?

"If someone was trying to decide to attend GHA and asked my opinion I would tell them it is an experience that will change your world around. You will go to GHA, meet new people who all share the same goals and dreams as you do, and you will learn to take a stand and be the change in the world. This experience is one that I will never forget and one that I will treasure for the rest of my life."
- Ang Calicchio

"GHA was the most awesome experience I've ever had. The people I met are now 50 of my best friends. I will never forget all of the amazing experiences. I honestly don't think I've ever taken in so much information in my entire life. Everything that I have learned I will be able to take with me and use to make me a better person. "To Nurture the Life of the Mind" truly came out. I was able to make myself think outside the box and grow and learn in everything we did here. I will take it with me everywhere and forever."
- Steven Blake

"GHA has been one of the most touching and life-changing experiences of my life. I seriously have made 43 new best friends. If you ever doubt coming to GHA, just stop! It is so much fun. You learn so much and I wouldn't trade this experience for anything!"
- Kayla Beck

"I would tell them that it is a changing experience that is well worth the money and other sacrifices. It is an extremely rewarding, and life enriching experience. This experience molded and shaped everyone into a better person. You will meet so many new friends and people that will mean so much to you. It is the best program in the State of Utah, and nothing will ever change that."
- Jacob Yates

"That it is the most rewarding experience that you will ever go through. Not only is it fun, but you learn and grow so much that it is almost surreal. You will meet wonderful people and feel the atmosphere of yearning for knowledge. The people here need to know this information, because we feed on it. It is such a wonderful time in your life, one you will never forget."
- Whitney Greenhalgh

"Honestly, I can say that GHA was the best experience of my [life]. You will come away with so many new qualities, lessons, and not to mention, a new family. For the people you meet here will become like family, there is no doubt. GHA will change your life."
- Hanna Nicholes

"This has been the best experience of my life. I will be forever changed from all the speakers, counselors, and friends I have listened to while here. I think the most profound influence on my was the other participants, though! They're all incredibly smart, and I am proud to have been selected with them. Thank you everyone who makes this possible! GHA Rocks!"
