In this classic novel from 1949 readers will be transported to an era of war, civil conflict, and revolution during a world of totalitarian oppression and terror. Follow Winston Smith, a member of the Party and an employee of the State, during his experiences as a conspiring rebel and his membership in The Brotherhood. George Orwell provides the language and ideas that feed ongoing concerns about privacy, individualism, and freedom of thought as he describes Winston's involvement in the resistance, and the ultimate surrender of Winston's personal thoughts and feelings to the Party.
COLLEGE OF WILLIAM & MARY
The Center for Gifted Education (CFGE) at William & Mary University (College of William & Mary), is a research and development center providing services to educators, policy makers, graduate students, researchers, and parents in support of the needs of gifted and talented individuals. Located in Williamsburg, Virginia, the CFGE has established an international reputation for excellence in research, curriculum development, and service. Several major grants, including funding from the Jacob K. Javits Gifted and Talented Students Education Act, have provided significant support for the work of the Center. In 2012, the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation awarded CFGE the funds needed for a summer residential camp for low income, high-ability children, for four consecutive years. In 2015, William & Mary alumni, Mike and Nancy Petters, through the Petters Family Foundation, provided additional financial support to the program. In 2016, the Petters Family Foundation has committed to fully fund the program for the next four years. Camp Launch is only the beginning of the Center for Gifted Education’s goal to bring educational equality to all gifted students.
