CHAI Symposium: The Power of Bold Questions
The inaugural Campbell Hall Advanced Inquiry (CHAI) Symposium, held on May 21, showcased student work and provided a platform for students to share their insights on the program with the Campbell Hall community. The evening began with a student-led panel moderated by Floré C. ’26, who, in true CHAI fashion, posed open-ended questions to her peers about their learning experiences. Panelists expressed that the ability to have a voice in course material and project topics allows them to pursue their individual interests and develop a deeper understanding of complex topics.
Following the panel, guests explored an exhibition featuring academic projects from 21 students from grades 10-12, representing 10 of the 14 CHAI courses currently offered. Presentations included a wide range of topics, including “History in the Present: Imperialism in Africa,” “Can You Train a Fish to Fight?,” and “The Threat of AI in Music: Robots Replacing Humanity.”
The CHAI model is distinctly Campbell Hall—rooted in inquiry, responsive to students, and designed to cultivate bold thinkers for a rapidly changing world. The CHAI Symposium embodied the spirit of the program, serving as an ideal way to celebrate student-driven learning and academic excellence.
