I am urgently trying to collect relatively recent accounts of kids/former employees who've been through any Aspen Ed. program! If you can write a detailed account of your experience it will be included in a significant piece of research that I am doing specifically on Aspen and will publish as soon as I have enough personal accounts from the last two years. It can be anonymous, but I'd need to confirm who you were or you can sign it. Your stories are the only way to penetrate the secrecy. I know it's tough to write these things and I wouldn't want to push any kid sore after release who isn't ready to rehash but if you are capable, please, please write! Send me a private message with an email and I will email back with more information.[ This Message was edited by: hurleygurley on 2005-09-16 20:45 ]

It might help if you list the names of the programs affiliated with Aspen, given how many entities they have acquired in recent years.

Yeah, if anybody feels like doing that, let me know. I'll start a forum just like the WWASP one.The worst government is the most moral. One composed of cynics
is often very tolerant and human. But when fanatics are on top,
there is no limit to oppression.

Thanks for posting the list. I was just going to. I will update with any new acquisitions as they happen frequently.
Also, it would be great if there were a separate forum for Aspen programs.

Ok then, 48 and counting! http://fornits.com/wwf/viewforum.php?forum=48 (http://fornits.com/wwf/viewforum.php?forum=48)
I'll lock this thread now and take requests for threads to transfer over to the new forum. I do not believe in the immortality of the individual, and I consider ethics to be an exclusively human concern with no superhuman authority behind it.
