2009 Faculty
Each SSP campus is staffed with an Academic Director and an Associate Academic Director (professional scientists and/or educators), a Site Director, and four teaching assistants.
Many of the faculty are themselves SSP alumni.
The faculty reside on the campus with the participants and are available at all hours to mentor, tutor, and discuss academic, scientific, residential and personal matters.
